Abstract

Embodiments herein provide a method and apparatus for handling bearer type change and user plane in a wireless communication supporting multi radio multi connectivity (MR-MC). A new bearer type is introduced to benefit from the increased radio resources of an additional network node. There is a method added to handle bearer type change that is applicable to both existing bearer types and new bearer type. The method includes suspending and resuming the bearer configuration at all layers, defining actions that take place at each layer during the bearer type change. With this mechanism, signaling overhead and latency is bearer establishment is reduced.
