Method and apparatus for performing communication in wireless communication system
Embodiments herein disclose a method for handling an RLF in a wireless communication system by a UE ( 100 ). The method includes receiving a measurement configuration including a second timer ( 150 ) from a SN ( 300 ). Further, the method includes configuring the UE with the second timer associated with a measurement report for a PSCell of the SN. Further, the method includes starting the second timer when the measurement report is triggered while a first timer ( 140 ) for the PSCell is running. Further, the method includes detecting an expiry of one of: the first timer and the second timer for the PSCell. Further, the method includes declaring an SCG RLF upon expiry of one of: the first timer and the second timer whichever expires sooner. Further, the method includes initiating an SCG failure procedure towards an MN ( 300 ) upon declaring SCG RLF.

in case that the information indicating the use of the T312 timer is included in the report configuration information for the SCG and a T310 timer is running, start the T312 timer based on the measurement object configuration information for the SCG, including a value of the T312 timer;
based on an expiry of the T312 timer on a primary SCG cell (PSCell), declare a RLF of the SCG; and
transmit, via a signaling radio bearer 1 (SRB 1), a SCG failure message including a value indicating a failure type as the expiry of the T312 timer.
4 . The UE of claim 3 , wherein the SCG failure message is transmitted via MCG transmission, upon declaring the RLF of the SCG.
5 . A method for handling a radio link failure (RLF) in a wireless communication system including a master cell group (MCG) and a secondary cell group (SCG), the method performed by a base station in which the SCG is configured, the method comprising:
transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), measurement object configuration information for the SCG and report configuration information for the SCG, via a signaling radio bearer 3 (SRB 3),
wherein based on the report configuration information for the SCG including information indicating use of a T312 timer, it is identified at the UE that an event-triggered reporting is set and an entry condition for an event is fulfilled,
wherein, in case that the information indicating the use of the T312 timer is included in the report configuration information for the SCG and a T310 timer is run at the UE, the T312 timer is started at the UE based on the measurement object configuration information for the SCG, including a value of the T312 timer,
wherein, based on an expiry of the T312 timer on a primary SCG cell (PSCell), a RLF of the SCG is declared at the UE and
wherein a SCG failure message including a value indicating a failure type as the expiry of the T312 timer is transmitted via a signaling radio bearer 1 (SRB 1).
6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the SCG failure message is transmitted via MCG transmission, upon the RLF of the SCG being declared.
7 . A base station for handling a radio link failure (RLF) in a wireless communication system including a master cell group (MCG) and a secondary cell group (SCG), the base station in which the SCG is configured, comprising:
a transceiver; and
