Abstract: The present invention is about conditional handover (CHO) in telecommunications networks, and a main point is to pass the responsibility to a target Master Node for triggering the UE to rapid access to Primary Secondary Cell after applying target Primary Cell configuration during a CHO-NR-DC handover. The target MN decides whether to wait further to execute CPC. If measurements are hopeful, completion of execution of the primary secondary cell for dual connectivity is postponed, and L3 measurement results are inspected from the UE. There are three variants, when the target MN requests the UE to access the target Secondary Node; namely RRC-based access target SN trigger, PDCCH-order-based variant and DL MCE-based variant.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer program for a serving network access node that causes the serving network access node to: provide a first user equipment with access to a network; signal, to a first network access node, a request for a first indication that indicates how at least one load-related parameter of the first network access node would likely be affected if the first network access node were to serve the first user equipment; receive, from the first network access node, the first indication; and make at least one load-related decision for the first user equipment in dependence on the received first indication.

Abstract: A master node is provided for a user equipment operating in dual-connectivity with the master node and a secondary node. The master node may be configured to receive information that indicates supported network slices of one or more further nodes. The master node may be configured to transmit slice support information for the one or more further nodes, based on the information. The slice support information may indicate one or more of the supported network slices, at least one non-supported network slice of the one or more further nodes, or at least one communication session of the user equipment that is associated with at least one non-supported network slice. The secondary node may receive the slice support information, and make a secondary node change determination at the secondary node, based on the slice support information.
