Zusammenfassung:Various example embodiments relate to a solution for non-terrestrial network communication. A user device for non-terrestrial network communication may be configured to determine that a connection to a non-terrestrial network having a discontinuous coverage is unavailable, the non-terrestrial network providing at least one cell serving the user device; obtain data relating to cell availability of the at least one cell; determine a backoff time associated with a subsequent non-terrestrial network search based at least partly on the data relating to cell availability; and initiate a cell search of the non-terrestrial network again after expiration of the backoff time.
