Inter-system handover between standalone mode and non-standalone mode

Abstract:

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to handover of a user equipment (UE) between a standalone mode of operation and a non-standalone mode of operation. For example, a UE may be handed-over from standalone to non-standalone, or vice versa. Moreover, this handover may be an inter-system handover (e.g., between an LTE core network and an NR core network).
