1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
a memory comprising instructions; and
one or more processors configured to execute the instructions and cause the UE to:
determine that a reduced signaling handover condition has occurred; and
execute a reduced signaling handover from a source base station to a target base station based at least in part on determining that the reduced signaling handover condition has occurred, wherein
the reduced signaling handover changes a security key for the UE, updates a round trip delay associated with a satellite, and continues using a cell radio resource control configuration.
