SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING INTERFREQUENCY MEASUREMENTSUSED FOR RADIO NETWORK FUNCTION

摘要

Devices, systems and methods for estimating inter-frequency measurements use d for radio network functions are disclosed. The systems and methods described allow systems to evaluate the quality of a second frequency by using offset adjusted measurements on a first frequency. By using the described methods, system capacity is increased by providing a "low cost" measurement mechanism for support of handover that substantially balance the load between two or more frequency bands. By using the proposed method, handover can be performe d more frequently and the interference within each frequency band can therefor e be kept at a more optimal level.
