Method of configuring a user equipment configuration and related communication device

A network comprising a centralized unit (CU) and a plurality of distributed units (DU(s)) for changing a DU for a communication device, comprising:

• at least one storage device;
• and
• at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of:
• the CU communicating with the communication device using a first communication device configuration and at least one first protocol via a first DU, wherein the first DU communicates with the communication device using a second communication device configuration and at least one second protocol;
• the CU receiving the second communication device configuration from the first DU;
• the CU sending a communication device Context Setup Request message comprising the second communication device configuration to a second DU;
• the CU receiving a communication device Context Setup Response message responding to the communication device Context Setup Request message from the second DU, wherein the communication device Context Setup Response message comprises a first full configuration indicator and a third communication device configuration;
• and
• the CU transmitting a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message to the communication device via the first DU, wherein the RRC message comprises the third communication device configuration and a second full configuration indicator.

A centralized unit (CU) for handling a handover for a communication device, comprising:

• at least one storage device;
• and
• at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of:
• the CU receiving a Handover Request message from a base station (BS) for requesting a handover from the BS to the CU, wherein the Handover Request message comprises a first communication device configuration for the communication device;
• the CU sending a communication device Context Setup Request message not comprising the first communication device configuration to a distributed unit (DU);
• the CU receiving a communication device Context Setup Response message responding to the communication device Context Setup Request message from the DU, wherein the communication device Context Setup Response message comprises a second communication device configuration;
• and
• the CU sending a Handover Request Acknowledge message comprising a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message to the BS in response to the Handover Request message, wherein the RRC message comprises the second communication device configuration and a first full configuration indicator.
