Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for Uplink (UL) synchronization handling for satellite switching in a wireless communication system. As such, a User Equipment (UE) can handle UL synchronization for satellite switching, thereby avoiding reducing transmission efficiency. The UE can also handle resources and/or configurations properly during satellite switching. A method for a UE comprises receiving, from an upper layer, an indication of an uplink synchronization loss, and in response to receiving the indication of the uplink synchronization loss: not performing uplink transmission on a serving cell, and determining whether to flush one or more Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) buffers based on whether the uplink synchronization loss is due to a satellite switch.
