TERMINAL DEVICE, NETWORK NODE, AND METHODS THEREIN FOR HANDLING PATH SWITCH AND HANDOVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18578376 titled 'TERMINAL DEVICE, NETWORK NODE, AND METHODS THEREIN FOR HANDLING PATH SWITCH AND HANDOVER
The present disclosure describes a method in a second terminal device that acts as a relay for a first terminal device towards a network node. The method involves transmitting a measurement report to the network node, receiving a handover command from the network node, and sending an indication to the first terminal device that the second terminal device is performing a handover procedure.
- The innovation involves a method for seamless handover between terminal devices in a network.
- The second terminal device serves as a relay for the first terminal device towards a network node.
- The method includes transmitting a measurement report, receiving a handover command, and sending an indication to the first terminal device.
- This technology aims to improve the efficiency and reliability of handover procedures in network communication.
- By utilizing the second terminal device as a relay, the handover process can be optimized for better network performance.
