    Abstract: A system for converging fifth generation (5G) communication systems for supporting higher data rates beyond fourth generation (4G) systems with a technology for Internet of things (IoT) is provided. The communication method and system may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A system is provided for determining system information validity by acquiring and storing a first system information block and other system information, including information on a public land mobile network (PLMN) identity and a value tag, and determining whether the stored system information is valid for the cell. As another example, a terminal and base station are provided for performing beam failure detection and a recovery procedure using first and second configuration information for beam failure recovery (BFR) and if failure is detected, initiating a first random access (RA) procedure and if second configuration information is received while the first RA procedure is ongoing, terminating the first RA procedure and initiating a second RA procedure based on the second configuration information.

    Abstract: A method and system for minimizing the battery power consumption of user equipment (UE) during inter-frequency cell detection in a heterogeneous network is disclosed. A serving cell in the heterogeneous network provides a relaxed cell detection indication to the UE on a specified frequency for cell detection. The UE applies the relaxed cell detection for detecting the cells on the specified frequency. During inter-frequency cell detection on specified frequency, the UE discards some normal measurement gaps. The inter-frequency cell detection is delayed as compared to normal cell detection time requirement using the normal measurement gaps. The UE deactivates the relaxed detection indication, upon detecting the inter-frequency cell and performs the continuous RSRP and RSRQ measurements for detected inter-frequency cell using all the normal measurement gaps to meet normal measurement accuracy and measurement reporting requirement.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide a method for handling a user plane by a UE configured for dual connectivity operation. The method includes receiving a RRC reconfiguration message including one or more Layer 2 indications and a Layer 2 configuration corresponding to one or more radio bearers from one of a MN and a SN involved in a dual connectivity operation of the UE. Further, the method includes performing, by the UE, one of: reestablishing of a RLC entity and a data recovery procedure for a PDCP entity corresponding to the radio bearer based on the one or more Layer 2 indications and the Layer 2 configuration received in the RRC reconfiguration message, and reestablishing of a RLC entity and reestablishing of a PDCP entity corresponding to the radio bearer based on the one or more Layer 2 indications and the Layer 2 configuration received in the RRC reconfiguration message.
