Abstract:

A method of communicating data by a terminal device in a wireless telecommunication system comprising a first radio access node and a second radio access node, the method comprising establishing an RRC connection with the first radio access node, entering a dual connectivity mode of operation for the terminal device in which the first radio access node acts as a master radio access node and the second radio access node acts as a secondary radio access node, communicating the same first data between the terminal device and the first radio access node and between the terminal device and the second radio access node, determining that radio link failure criteria are satisfied in respect of at least the first radio access node, and communicating second data between the terminal device and the second radio access node.
