Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a central unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU) to communicate information for a network energy savings (NES) related conditional handover (CHO). For example, the CU, which may configure one or more user equipments (UEs) for the CHO, may indicate which UEs are configured to the DU, which may serve the UEs via Layer-1 (L1) signaling. The CU may further indicate which of the configured UEs are to perform the NES related CHO, which may be determined according to measurement reports from the configured UEs. In some examples, the DU may trigger the NES related CHO for UEs associated with measurement reports that satisfy an NES-specific threshold value, which may support the CU and the DU transitioning to the NES mode.
