Patent attributes
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to mobility techniques that allow for dynamically updating a set of cells activated to serve a user equipment (UE) and the cell in the set of cells designated as the primary cell (PCell). An example method includes receiving signaling indicating a set of cells supported by one or more distributed units (DUs) under a common central unit (CU); identifying a subset of the set of cells activated to serve the UE, wherein a first cell of the activated cells comprises a primary cell selected from cells included in a candidate set of primary cells (PCells); and identifying another one of the activated cells to serve as the PCell if the first cell is re-designated as a secondary cell (SCell), wherein the other one of the activated cells comprises a cell selected from the candidate set of PCells.
