Abstract
A method includes determining whether user equipment (UE) in a telecommunication network is configured to support evolved universal terrestrial radio access network dual connectivity (ENDC). Responsive to the UE being determined as configured to support the ENDC determining whether a source cell and a target cell are configured to support the ENDC. Performing on processing circuitry a first mobility modification in response to determining the source cell is an ENDC source cell and the target cell is a non-ENDC target cell. Performing on the processing circuitry a second mobility modification in response to determining the target cell is an ENDC target cell and the source cell is a non-ENDC source cell. The second mobility modification is different from the first mobility modification. Performing a handover from the source cell to the target cell in response to both the source cell and the target cell being configured for ENDC or non-ENDC.
