Fast recovery from link failure in dual-connectivity systems

A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• detecting a radio link failure between the UE and a master node, the UE and the master node being associated with a dual-connectivity configuration;
• and
• performing a fast recovery procedure by at least transmitting, via at least one transceiver, to the master node and via a secondary node also being associated with the dual-connectivity configuration, a master cell-group failure information message or a radio resource control reestablishment request, wherein the fast recovery procedure is performed based on an indication from a layer associated with the radio link failure.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communication, the code comprising instructions executable by one or more processors to cause a user equipment (UE) to:

• detect a radio link failure between the UE and a master node, the UE and the master node being associated with a dual-connectivity configuration;
• and
• perform a fast recovery procedure by at least transmitting, via at least one transceiver, to the master node and via a secondary node also being associated with the dual-connectivity configuration, a master cell-group failure information message or a radio resource control reestablishment request, wherein the fast recovery procedure is performed based on an indication from a layer associated with the radio link failure.
