1. A wireless apparatus, comprising:
a non-transitory memory storing executable instructions; and
a processor configured to execute the executable instructions to perform operations comprising:
in a connected state during which the wireless apparatus is connected to a first cell, storing context information regarding a connection with the first cell, wherein the context information includes an identifier of the wireless apparatus;
receiving configuration information for configuring an intermediate state from the first cell and entering the intermediate state according to the configuration information, wherein the configuration information includes a list of cells for the wireless apparatus to select from, wherein the intermediate state is different from an idle state or the connected state, and wherein during the intermediate state, the wireless apparatus keeps the context information regarding the connection with the first cell;
moving to a second cell;
determining whether the second cell is one of the cells in the list of cells;
in response to determining that the second cell is one of the cells in the list of cells, reselecting to the second cell without notifying a base station of the second cell being reselected; and
in response to determining that the second cell is not one of the cells in the list of cells, sending a notification message to the base station of the second cell, and switching the wireless apparatus from the intermediate state to the idle state or the connected state.
