Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The embodiments herein disclose methods and systems for enabling a user equipment (UE) to report a secondary node failure in a dual connectivity wireless network including a master node (MN) and a secondary node (SN), the method includes detecting a secondary cell group (SCG) failure.
