Abstract
A user device is provided. The user device comprises a transceiver configured to: receive a first Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI), wherein the first RNTI is valid for a first set of network nodes of a radio communication network; receive at least one second RNTI, wherein the second RNTI is valid for a second set of network nodes of the radio communication network, and wherein the first set of network nodes and the second set of network nodes are different sets of network nodes; transmit data to the radio communication network, or receive data from the radio communication network, using the first RNTI or the second RNTI. Furthermore, a network node and corresponding methods, a computer program, and a computer program product are provided.
