In this way, it avoids the child IAB node performs the handover before its parent IAB node.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a solution for supporting a successful handover report. In a method for communication, a terminal device receives, from a first network device providing a first cell, an indication that a handover of the terminal device from the first cell to a second cell of a second network device is to be performed. Then, the terminal device determines triggering information about a successful handover report of the handover based on a set of triggering conditions. The triggering information indicates whether the successful handover report is triggered for the handover. In this way, the successful handover report can be optionally triggered based on the set of triggering conditions, so that the terminal device may be limited to reporting a successful handover report when necessary, thereby saving processing resources and communication resources for unnecessary successful handover reports.
