wherein the received segment of the segmented RRC message is maintained in case that an IP check failure for a signaling radio bearer 3 (SRB3) has occurred.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the received segment of the segmented RRC message is discarded in case that an RRE failure,
a radio link failure (RLF) in a secondary cell group (SCG), an SCG reconfiguration with sync failure, or an SCG reestablishment failure, an SCG integrity protection check failure has occurred.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the received segment of the segmented RRC message is maintained in case that an MCG reconfiguration with sync failure or a mobility failure from a new radio (NR) has occurred.
8. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller coupled with the transceiver, and configured to:
receive, from a base station, a segment of a segmented radio resource control (RRC) message,
identify whether an RRC re-establishment (RRE) has occurred before receiving the last segment of the segmented RRC message, and
in case that the RRE has occurred before receiving the last segment of the segmented RRC message, determine whether to discard or maintain the received segment of the segmented RRC message based on a cause of the RRE,
wherein the received segment of the segmented RRC message is discarded in case that a master cell group (MCG) integrity protection (IP) check failure for a signaling radio bearer 1 (SRB1) or a signaling radio bearer 2 (SRB2) has occurred, and
wherein the received segment of the segmented RRC message is maintained in case that an IP check failure for a signaling radio bearer 3 (SRB3) has occurred.
9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the received segment of the segmented RRC message is discarded in case that an RRE failure,
a radio link failure (RLF) in a secondary cell group (SCG), an SCG reconfiguration with sync failure, an SCG reestablishment failure, or an SCG integrity protection check failure has occurred.
10. The UE of claim 8 , where the received segment of the segmented RRC message is maintained in case that an MCG reconfiguration with sync failure or a mobility failure from a new radio (NR) has occurred.
11. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the controller is further configured to: receive, from the base station, a UE capability enquiry message; and based on the UE capability enquiry message, transmit, to the base station, UE capability information including an indicator indicating whether the UE supports the segmented RRC message.
12. A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:
