wherein each conditional mobility command comprises a mobility condition and a target cell configuration for the corresponding target cell,
wherein the mobility condition is related to a measurement configuration and corresponds to a condition identified by the measurement configuration, and
wherein the target cell configuration is used for the UE to access to the corresponding target cell for mobility;
evaluating a mobility condition for one or more of the multiple target cells including a first target cell;
performing a mobility attempt to the first target cell using a target cell configuration for the first target cell based on a mobility condition for the first target cell being satisfied;
removing the target cell configuration for the first target cell and performing a cell selection based on the mobility attempt to the first target cell failing;

evaluating a mobility condition for one or more of the multiple target cells including the first target cell after succeeding the mobility attempt to the second target cell; and
transmitting, to the network, a measurement report comprising a measurement result for the first target cell based on the mobility condition for the first target cell for which target cell configuration has been removed being satisfied.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
after succeeding the mobility attempt to the second target cell, performing a measurement identity swapping so that a measurement object related to a source frequency is swapped with that related to a target frequency.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement report further comprises measurement results on one or more other cells.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UE is in communication with at least one of a network, or autonomous vehicles.
5. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver;
a memory; and
at least one processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, and configured to:
control the transceiver to receive, from a network, one or more measurement configurations;
control the transceiver to receive, from the network after receiving the one or more measurement configurations, a plurality of conditional mobility commands each of which is related to a corresponding target cell among multiple target cells,
wherein each conditional mobility command comprises a mobility condition and a target cell configuration for the corresponding target cell,
wherein the mobility condition is related to a measurement configuration and corresponds to a condition identified by the measurement configuration, and
wherein the target cell configuration is used for the UE to access to the corresponding target cell for mobility;
evaluate a mobility condition for one or more of the multiple target cells including a first target cell;
perform a mobility attempt to the first target cell using a target cell configuration for the first target cell based on a mobility condition for the first target cell being satisfied;

control the transceiver to transmit, to the network, a measurement report comprising a measurement result for the first target cell based on the mobility condition for the first target cell for which target cell configuration has been removed being satisfied.
6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to, after succeeding the mobility attempt to the second target cell, perform a measurement identity swapping so that a measurement object related to a source frequency is swapped with that related to a target frequency.
7. A computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program for performing each step of a method on a computer, the method comprising:
receiving, from a network, one or more measurement configurations;
receiving, from the network after receiving the one or more measurement configurations, a plurality of conditional mobility commands each of which is related to a corresponding target cell among multiple target cells,
wherein each conditional mobility command comprises a mobility condition and a target cell configuration for the corresponding target cell,
wherein the mobility condition is related to a measurement configuration and corresponds to a condition identified by the measurement configuration, and
wherein the target cell configuration is used for the UE to access to the corresponding target cell for mobility;
