Abstract

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for enhanced handling time alignment timer at transmission configuration indicator state switch are provided. For example, a method can include performing a transmission configuration indicator state switch to a network element. The method can also include determining whether an uplink timing is aligned with respect to the network element. The method can further include determining whether a random access channel procedure is needed to adjust uplink timing in response to the determining that the uplink timing is not aligned. The method can additionally include adjusting the uplink transmit timing in response to a result of the determining whether random access channel procedure is needed to adjust uplink timing.
