Facilitating mobile device-assisted mobility enhancement to improve user plane interruption time

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a mobile device, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• determining that a connection, via a first beam, between the mobile device and a base station device of a network fails to satisfy a defined condition, wherein the mobile device was communicatively coupled to the network via a first distribution device of distribution devices;
• based on a second beam being determined to satisfy the defined condition, selecting the second beam to which to connect and that is associated with a second distribution device of the distribution devices;
• and
• transmitting, via the second beam to the base station device, a radio link interruption message comprising re-assignment information to facilitate re-assignment of the mobile device to the second beam from being assigned to the first beam, wherein the transmitting is performed via a mobile device identification message of a random access procedure to facilitate the re-assignment from the first beam to the second beam, wherein the mobile device identification message identifies the mobile device, and wherein the transmitting is performed based on the first distribution device being determined to be different from the second distribution device.

A network device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
• receiving, from a mobile device, a radio interruption link message in a mobile device identification message of a random access channel procedure requesting re-assignment of the mobile device from a first beam to a second beam, the requesting the re-assignment being based on the first beam failing to satisfy a defined condition regarding signal strength and based on a determination that a first distribution device that provided the first beam is different from a second distribution device that provided the second beam, wherein the radio interruption link message comprises information to identify the second distribution device;
• re-assigning the mobile device from the first beam to the second beam;
• and
• forwarding, to the mobile device, via the second distribution device, data determined to have been lost due to the first beam failing to satisfy the defined condition.
