Abstract: A method comprising, during multi-connectivity: sending a re-configuration message for execution by a user equipment; and sending a flag indicating an action to be taken by the user equipment during or after execution by the user equipment of an existing reconfiguration message, wherein the flag is configured to distinguish between at least two of the following actions: discarding the reconfiguration message; executing the reconfiguration message after executing an existing reconfiguration message; or prioritizing execution of the reconfiguration message over execution of an existing reconfiguration message.

Abstract: In one aspect of the present disclosure, a user equipment has a processor and a memory including computer program code, where the memory and the computer program code are configured, with the processor, to cause the user equipment to receive from a network node at least one beam-specific mobility parameter associated with at least one respective candidate beam in a serving cell; to switch in the serving cell to a new beam among the at least one candidate beam; and to select a beam-specific mobility parameter associated with the new beam. In another aspect of the present disclosure, a network node has a processor and a memory including computer program code, where the memory and the computer program code are configured, with the processor, to cause the network node to preconfigure at least one beam-specific mobility parameter associated with at least one respective candidate beam in a serving cell; and to send the at least one beam-specific mobility parameter to a user equipment.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention pertain to a method, comprising receiving a preparatory handover request pertaining to at least one or more physical resources, respectively associated to a particular communication service, preliminarily deciding on the feasibility of such preparatory handover request for each of said at least one or more physical resources associated to the particular communication service dependent on at least one feasibility criterion, and validating the preliminary decision on the feasibility of the preparatory handover request dependent on at least one validation criterion. Likewise, corresponding apparatus and computer program products are addressed, both from network entity perspective such as a gNB, as well as from a terminal's perspective, e.g. from a UE perspective.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for source cell to provide a service/slice indication to the target cell in the handover preparation. The source cell provides to a target cell a list of one or more service/slice specific indications for individual ones of one or more network slices in a request for enhanced handover from the source cell to the target cell in a handover preparation phase. The source cell receives from the target cell, indications in a handover request acknowledgement of one or more selected network slices to be handed over from the source cell to the target cell using enhanced handovers. Performs make-before-break handovers to hand over these selected network slices from the source cell to the target cell and performs normal handovers for the one or more other network slices.

Abstract: Method, apparatus and computer program product able to determining whether a user equipment in a wireless communications network has applied a stored or acquired system information message of a new system information area within a predefined time, where the user equipment replaced a system information message of an initial system information area with a system information message of another system information area or with a cell-specific system information message of another cell. If the new system information area is equivalent to the system information area of the initial system information area, then the system information message for the initial system information area is applied. If the new system information area is different from the system information area of the initial system information area, then a system information message for that different system information area is applied.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for robust system information (SI) delivery are provided. One method may include receiving, by a network node, a SI request from a UE, and transmitting an acknowledgement of the SI request to the UE. In one example, the method may include selecting, by the network node, a subset of downlink beams for transmitting the requested SI message. In an embodiment, the selecting may include selecting the subset of downlink beams based on SI requests associated with SS/PBCH blocks, and the subset of downlink beams associated with the SI requests are used for the delivery of an SI message.
