Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 9:
10. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
a transceiver configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message including information indicating handover execution conditions and handover cancelation conditions for conditional handover (CHO) of service for a user equipment (UE) from a serving cell to a target cell, wherein:
a first of the handover execution conditions is based on whether a distance between the UE and a reference location is less than a threshold value,
a second of the handover execution conditions is based on whether a time elapsed from when the UE received the RRC reconfiguration message is greater than a threshold value, and
a first of the handover cancelation conditions is based on whether a distance between the UE and the reference location is greater than a threshold value; and

a processor operably coupled to the transceiver, the processor configured to determine whether to initiate the CHO based on the handover execution conditions and the handover cancelation conditions,
wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit a handover completion acknowledgement based on completion of the CHO from the serving cell to the target cell.
