Question: What is a prerequisite for a User Equipment (UE) to support handover from E-UTRA/5GC in coverage enhancement mode to NR TDD FR2-2, as specified for ce-EUTRA-5GC-HO-ToNR-TDD-FR2-2-r17?
Option 1: The UE must support only UE Category M1.
Option 2: The UE must also support ce-EUTRA-5GC-r16 and a UE Category other than M1 and M2.
Option 3: The UE needs to operate exclusively in FDD mode for this handover feature.
Option 4: The UE has to be capable of dual-radio transmission for both E-UTRA and NR.
Explanation: This is correct because, as per the specifications, a UE indicating support for ce-EUTRA-5GC-HO-ToNR-TDD-FR2-2-r17 must also indicate support for ce-EUTRA-5GC-r16. Additionally, this feature’s applicability excludes UEs that only support UE Categories M1 and M2, implying the need for a different category for this handover capability to be relevant. This ensures seamless handovers under specific coverage enhancement conditions without restricting the UE to lower categories or specific radio modes.
