1. A method comprising:
- camping, by a wireless device associated with a user, on a cell of a wireless network, wherein the wireless device is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state relative to a wireless station of the wireless network, and wherein the wireless device is configured to perform a first extended cell selection procedure and a second extended cell selection procedure;
detecting, by the wireless device, a triggering event that invokes a T311 timer, while the wireless device is in the RRC connected state;
determining, by the wireless device, whether the wireless device is involved in a real-time session or a non-real-time session, as a binary choice, in response to the detecting;
invoking, by the wireless device, the first extended cell selection procedure that does not use any minimum threshold value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish an RRC connection, in response to determining that the wireless device is involved in the real-time session; and
invoking, by the wireless device, the second extended cell selection procedure that uses an S criterion value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish the RRC connection, in response to determining that the wireless device is involved in the non-real-time session.

Abstract
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to detect a triggering event that invokes a T311 timer, while the device is in a radio resource control (RRC) connected state; and invoke an extended cell selection procedure that does not use an S criterion value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish an RRC connection, based on a detection of the triggering event.

9. A user device comprising:
-
a communication interface; a memory, wherein the memory stores instructions; and a processor, wherein the processor executes the instructions to; camp on a cell of a wireless network, wherein the user device is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state relative to a wireless station of the wireless network, and wherein the user device is configured to perform a first extended cell selection procedure and a second extended cell selection procedure; detect a triggering event that invokes a T311 timer, while the user device is in the RRC connected state; determine whether the user device is involved in a real-time session or a non-real-time session, as a binary choice, in response to the detection; invoke the first extended cell selection procedure that does not use any minimum threshold value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish an RRC connection, in response to a determination that the user device is involved in the real-time session; and invoke the second extended cell selection procedure that uses an S criterion value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish the RRC connection, in response to a determination that the user device is involved in the non-real-time session. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions executable by a processor of a device to:
-
camp on a cell of a wireless network, wherein the device is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state relative to a wireless station of the wireless network, and wherein the device is configured to perform a first extended cell selection procedure and a second extended cell selection procedure; detect a triggering event that invokes a T311 timer, while the device is in the RRC connected state; determine whether the device is involved in a real-time session or a non-real-time session, as a binary choice, in response to the detection; invoke the first extended cell selection procedure that does not use any minimum threshold value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish an RRC connection, in response to a determination that the device is involved in the real-time session; and invoke the second extended cell selection procedure that uses an S criterion value as a basis to select a candidate cell to re-establish the RRC connection, in response to a determination that the user device is involved in the non-real-time session. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
