Abstract
At least one example embodiment discloses a method of coordinating a change from a first operating state to a second operating state of a selected cell in a system. The method includes changing to an intermediate state from the first operating state based on first signaling information exchanged between a serving cell of a user equipment (UE) and the selected cell in the first operating state and at least one signal received by the selected cell in the first operating state from the UE, the first operating state being a dormant state and operating in the intermediate state based on second signaling information between the serving cell and the selected cell, third signaling information between the serving cell and the UE and transmission information between the UE and the selected cell, the intermediate state being between the first operating state and the second operating state, the second operating state being an on state where the selected cell serves the UE.
