The cell type is one of a reduced capability (RC) type, a fallback (FB) type, or a neither (N) type, corresponding to various support for the UE operating with the reduced capability. The UE further configures a device mode, where the device mode includes an RC mode or a FB-allowed mode, and manages the connection between the UE and the cell based on the device mode and the cell type.
