Method for performing SCG re-establishment in dual connectivity in wireless communication system and a device therefor
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and a device for performing SCG re-establishment in dual connectivity in wireless communication system, the method comprising: detecting radio link failure on a secondary node, wherein the UE is configured with a master node and the secondary node; and receiving signals from candidates of a new secondary node for obtaining information about which cell is a best candidate on the new secondary node to prepare for radio link failure on the secondary node; and initiating RRC connection re-establishment procedure for recovery from the radio link failure of the secondary node if a cell which is to be a PSCell on a new secondary node is selected in a cell list.
1. A method for UE (user equipment) operating in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
detecting radio link failure on a secondary node, wherein the UE is configured with a master node and the secondary node,
receiving a cell list, wherein the cell list is included in system information delivered from the master node, or the cell list is included in a dedicated RRC configuration delivered from the master node;
performing a cell measurement on one or more cells on the cell list;
deciding, based on the cell measurement, which cell is a best candidate to be a new secondary node;
initiating an RRC (Radio Resource Control) connection re-establishment procedure for recovery from the radio link failure of the secondary node based on the best candidate cell, which is to be a PSCell (Primary SCell) on the new secondary node, being selected from the cell list; and
informing the master node of the radio link failure of the secondary node based on the best candidate cell, which is to be the PSCell on the new secondary node, not being selected from the cell list.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein based on initiating an RRC connection re-establishment procedure for recovery from the radio link failure of the secondary node, the UE transmits an RRC connection re-establishment request to the secondary node without intervention of the master node.
3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
based on detecting radio link failure on the secondary node, suspending all SCG (Secondary Cell Group) DRBs (Data Radio Bearers) and suspending SCG transmission for split DRBs except an SCG SRB (Signaling Radio Bearer).
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the master node is related to an LTE network and the secondary node is related to an NG-RAN.
5. A UE (user equipment) operating in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor that:
detects a radio link failure on a secondary node, wherein the UE is configured with a master node and the secondary node,
receives a cell list, wherein the cell list is included in system information delivered from the master node, or the cell list is included in a dedicated RRC configuration delivered from the master node,
performs a cell measurement on one or more cells on the cell list,
deciding, based on the cell measurement, which cell is a best candidate to be a new secondary node,
initiates an RRC (Radio Resource Control) connection re-establishment procedure for recovery from the radio link failure of the secondary node based on the best candidate cell, which is to be a PSCell (Primary SCell) on the new secondary node, being selected from the cell list, and
informs the master node of the radio link failure of the secondary node based on the best candidate cell, which is to be the PSCell on the new secondary node, not being selected from the cell list.
6. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein based on initiating an RRC connection re-establishment procedure for recovery from the radio link failure of the secondary node, the UE transmits an RRC connection re-establishment request to the secondary node without intervention of the master node.
7. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein based on detecting radio link failure on the secondary node, the UE further suspends all SCG (Secondary Cell Group) DRBs (Data Radio Bearers) and suspends SCG transmission for split DRBs except an SCG SRB (Signaling Radio Bearer).
8. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein the master node is
related to an LTE network and the secondary node is related to an NG-RAN.
