Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications. A method and apparatus described include detecting a connection event after completing a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection reconfiguration procedure with a base station. The method and apparatus include transmitting a connection release request message on a signaling radio bearer (SRB) to the base station in response to detecting the connection event. The method and apparatus include initiating a connection release timer in response to detecting the connection event. The method and apparatus include monitoring for a synchronization message from the base station. The method and apparatus include performing a first connection procedure to synchronize with the base station based on receiving the synchronization message from the base station prior to an expiration of the connection release timer.
