PROCEDURES FOR CLASS-BASED MEASUREMENTS ON MULTIPLE CARRIERS

摘要

Techniques are provided for facilitating radio measurements when the number of carriers to be measured is increased. An example method, in a network node, includes determining at least a first set and second set of carrier frequencies to be used by the radio communication device for performing radio measurements on cells operating on the said carrier frequencies, where the radio measurements to be performed on cells on the first set of carriers are required to meet a first set of pre-defined requirements and radio measurements of the same type performed on cells on the second set of carriers are required to meet a second set of pre-defined requirements, and where the first set of pre-defined requirements are more stringent than the second set. The method further includes sending information to the radio communication device identifying the determined first and second sets, to enable class-based measurements on the identified carrier frequencies.
