Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 7:
8. An apparatus, comprising:
radio front end circuitry; and
processing circuitry coupled to the radio front end circuitry, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
identify a user equipment (UE) performing a handover from a first node to a second node;
apply a first mobility robustness optimization (MRO) function to identify a target parameter corresponding to the handover, wherein the target parameter includes a message exchange timing corresponding to messages exchanged between the UE and the second node to execute the handover;
monitor, using the radio front end circuitry, one or more connection measurements and one or more radio link failure reports corresponding to the handover;
identify the handover as failing to meet the target parameter based on an analysis of the one or more connection measurements or the one or more radio link failure reports;
in response to identifying the handover as failing to meet the target parameter, disable a second MRO function corresponding to the second node to enable modification of handover parameters at the second node; and
in response to disabling the second MRO function, modify the target parameter to facilitate the handover to the second node by modifying the message exchange timing at the second node to execute the handover.
