Abstract: There is provided a user equipment apparatus that includes at least one processor and memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the user equipment apparatus at least to: establish a connection with a serving cell controlled by a serving network node; perform configuration for L1/L2 triggered mobility (LTM) to a target cell, the target cell controlled by one of: the serving network node or a target network node; prior to receiving a command to switch to the target cell: transmit, towards the target cell, a random access preamble for acquiring timing advance for the target cell; and receive, from the serving network node, an instruction to acquire timing advance for the target cell.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for communication are provided. One or more link identifiers used by a first terminal device are obtained. Information on communication of another terminal device with the first terminal device based on the obtained one or more link identifiers is obtained. Based on the obtained information, it is determined, that the first terminal device is active for communication and transmission to the first terminal device performed based on the determination.

Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage medium for conditional cell changes. In a method, a terminal device, receives, from a network device, a set of measurement configurations and execution conditions. The set of measurement configurations and execution conditions is associated with selective activation of a plurality of candidate cells. Then, the terminal device stores the set of measurement configurations and execution conditions and performs cell changes among the plurality of candidate cells based on the stored set of measurement configurations and execution conditions.

Abstract: A user equipment apparatus (UE) includes processor(s) and memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor(s), cause the UE to: prepare for timing advance (TA) acquisition for a candidate target cell; prepare for handover to the candidate target cell; identify at least one contention-free random access (CFRA) resource for the TA acquisition and for the handover; in case the CFRA resource(s) include a same CFRA resource for the TA acquisition and for the handover, use the same CFRA resource for the TA acquisition and for the handover; and in case the CFRA resource(s) include a first CFRA resource for the TA acquisition and a second CFRA resource for the handover, use the first CFRA resource for the TA acquisition for the candidate target cell and use the second CFRA resource for the handover to the candidate target cell.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments provide systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for a handover of a coordinated multi-point connection. For example, certain embodiment may transfer a first coordinated multi-point connection (e.g., a further enhanced multiple input multiple output (FeMIMO) connection) to a second coordinated multi-point connection where the network may instruct the UE to not perform at least one random access procedure. The first coordinated multi-point connection may be controlled by a first cell (the serving cell) where the UE is ready to receive from and transmit to a first set of cells that comprises the serving cell and one or more non-serving cells. After handover, the second coordinated multi-point connection may be controlled by a previous non-serving cell, and the UE may be ready to receive from and transmit to a second set of cells that comprises the previous non-serving cell.
