Abstract:
Embodiments of an evolved Node B (eNB) and methods for radio link failure handling for dual connectivity are generally described herein. A method performed by circuitry of a User Equipment (UE) may include connecting at a UE, to a Master eNB (M eNB) and connecting to a Secondary eNB (SeNB). The method may include determining at the UE, that one of the connections has a Radio Link Failure and determining at the UE, that the other of the connections remains connected to the UE. The method may include refraining from initiating a Radio Resource Control (RRC) re-establishment procedure while at least one of the connections does not have a radio link failure.

Claim (Index 11):
An apparatus of a first evolved Node-B (eNB), the apparatus comprising processing circuitry coupled to memory, the processing circuitry configured to:\n decode a radio resource control (RRC) indication from a user equipment (UE) that a connection between the UE and a second eNB has experienced a radio link failure (RLF), the UE in a dual connectivity state with the first eNB and the second eNB; and encode a configuration message for transmission to the UE, to release a secondary cell group of the second eNB and suspend at least one radio bearer, the at least one radio bearer used prior to being suspended by the second eNB to communicate with the UE.
