Method and apparatus for applying target network configuration by user equipment in wireless communication system
The present invention relates to a method of transmitting a signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Especially, the method includes the steps of receiving a handover command containing configurations for a second network, from a first network; performing a random access procedure to the second network; re-establishing a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity associated with a signaling radio bearer (SRB) based on the configurations for the second network, after a random access procedure to the second network successes; transmitting a radio resource control (RRC) message to the second network using the re-established PDCP entity.
1. A method for performing a handover procedure by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a first network, a handover command containing configurations for a second network; and
performing a random access procedure to the second network,
wherein, based on a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity being associated with a first radio bearer (RB), the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network upon receiving the handover command, before performing the random access procedure with the second network, and
wherein based on the PDCP entity being associated with a second RB, the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network, after the random access procedure with the second network successfully completed.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting a radio resource control (RRC) message to the second network using the re-established PDCP entity.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the PDCP entity associated with the second RB being re-established, a security key of the PDCP entity is updated using a security key for the second network.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein, based on the PDCP entity associated with the second RB being re-established, PDCP state variables are set to initial values.
5. A user equipment (UE) configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
at least one transceiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a first network, a handover command containing configurations for a second network; and
performing a random access procedure to the second network,
wherein, based on a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity being associated with a first radio bearer (RB), the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network upon receiving the handover command, before performing the random access procedure with the second network, and
wherein based on the PDCP entity being associated with a second RB, the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network, after the random access procedure with the second network successfully completed.
6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the operations further comprise:
transmitting a radio resource control (RRC) message to the second network using the re-established PDCP entity.
7. The UE of claim 5 , wherein, based on the PDCP entity associated with the second RB being re-established, a security key of the PDCP entity is updated using a security key for the second network.
8. The UE of claim 7 , wherein, based on the PDCP entity associated with the second RB being re-established, PDCP state variables are set to initial values.
9. An apparatus for a user equipment (UE), the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a first network, a handover command containing configurations for a second network; and
performing a random access procedure to the second network,
wherein, based on a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity being associated with a first radio bearer (RB), the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network upon receiving the handover command, before performing the random access procedure with the second network, and
wherein based on the PDCP entity being associated with a second RB, the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network, after the random access procedure with the second network successfully completed.
10. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing at least one computer program comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations for a user equipment (UE), the operations comprising:
receiving, from a first network, a handover command containing configurations for a second network; and
performing a random access procedure to the second network,
wherein, based on a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity being associated with a first radio bearer (RB), the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network upon receiving the handover command, before performing the random access procedure with the second network, and
wherein based on the PDCP entity being associated with a second RB, the PDCP entity is re-established based on the configurations for the second network, after the random access procedure with the second network successfully completed.
