Signaling for MAC-I Verification in RNAU Without Anchor Relocation

Abstract:

An apparatus of a next generation NodeB (gNB) comprises one or more baseband processors to process a radio resource control (RRC) resume request (RRCResumeRequest) from a user equipment (UE) in an inactive state (RRC_INACTIVE), and to send a UE context request (Retrieve UE Context Request) to a last serving gNB, wherein the UE context request includes a physical cell identifier (PCI) and cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) of the gNB. The apparatus can include a memory to store the RRC resume request at the gNB and the UE context request at the last serving gNB.
