    Abstract: According to an embodiment, a method may include receiving, by a target network entity, at least one message from an integrated access and backhaul node. The method may further include receiving at least one handover request. The method may further include associating, based on the at least one message and the at least one handover request, by the target network entity, at least one mobile termination of at least one integrated access and backhaul node with at least one distributed unit of the at least one integrated access and backhaul node.

    Abstract: A technique of performing a handover procedure involves providing a proper timing adjustment indication for the UE performing RACH-less HO. Even though the discussion herein is on IAB scenarios and the idea takes an advantage of IAB nodes being in fixed locations (i.e., not moving in the network), it can be applied to UEs in general. The timing adjustment provided in performing a HO in an IAB network according to the improved techniques involves computing a timing advance (TA) to be used by an IAB node prior to executing HO to an alternative serving node. Such a use of a TA may enable a bypassing of a RACH procedure when accessing a cell.
