Abstract
Techniques for managing cell update messages are described here. An information element (IE) that indicates the security status of a user equipment (UE) may be included in the cell update message when a cell update procedure is triggered during an ongoing security mode procedure. To ensure the size of the cell update message is equal to or smaller than the transport format size, other IEs may be omitted from the cell update message if the security mode procedure is in progress. Alternatively, if the security mode procedure is not in progress, there may not be a need to update the security status of the UE and, thus, the IE that indicates the security status may be omitted from the cell update message to reduce the size of the cell update message.
