MANAGING A CELL GROUP IN DUAL CONNECTIVITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18279051 titled 'MANAGING A CELL GROUP IN DUAL CONNECTIVITY
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for managing the deactivation of a secondary cell group (SCG) in a radio access network (RAN) when a condition for deactivation is satisfied. The method involves determining if the user equipment (UE) supports deactivating the SCG and causing the secondary node (SN) to deactivate or release the SCG based on this determination.
- Detecting when a condition for deactivating the SCG is met
- Determining if the UE supports deactivating the SCG
- Instructing the SN to deactivate or release the SCG based on the determination

Original Abstract Submitted
A network node of a radio access network (RAN), communicating with a user equipment (UE) in dual connectivity (DC) with a master node (MN) and a secondary node (SN), can implement a method for managing deactivation of a secondary cell group (SCG). The method includes detecting () that a condition for deactivating the SCG is satisfied. The method further includes determining () whether the UE supports deactivating the SCG, and causing () the SN to deactivate or to release the SCG at the SN based on the determining.
