Techniques for wireless communications with a master node in a master cell group without a change in a secondary node in a secondary cell group

Abstract

Techniques for wireless communications are described. A communication device, for example, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a request message to a target master base station based on a change in a state of the UE, and receive a response message from the target master base station based on the transmitted request message from the UE. The response message may include secondary node (SN) information and UE context reference shared to the target master base station from a source master base station (also referred to as a primary base station). The SN information corresponding to the same secondary base station associated with the UE while previously connected to the source master base station. The UE context reference may be stored at the same secondary base station.
