Abstract

A technique relating to resource configuration in a wireless communication network. A terminal device in the wireless communication network receives information about supplemental resource from a source cell. Then the terminal device determines a time interval, in which the supplemental resource is available to the terminal device, in a transition period of a handover from the source cell to a target cell based on a timer associated with a random access procedure in the handover. In this way, the terminal device may use the supplemental resource during the handover.
