Prioritization of concurrent inter-frequency/inter-RAT measurement and eMBMS service reception

摘要

A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The UE receives MBMS in an MBMS session from a base station. The UE determines a data receipt metric associated with data received during the MBMS subframes in the MBMS session. A portion of the MBMS subframes coincides with a measurement gap configured for inter-frequency or inter-RAT measurement. The UE determines whether the data receipt metric is in a first relationship with a first threshold. When the data receipt metric is in the first relationship with the first threshold, the UE refrains from receiving the data during at least the portion of the MBMS subframes that coincides with the measurement gap and performs the inter-frequency or inter-RAT measurement during the measurement gap when the data receipt metric is in the first relationship with the first threshold.

1. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) subframes in an MBMS session from a base station; determining a data receipt metric corresponding to a data receipt ratio associated with data received during the MBMS subframes in the MBMS session, wherein a portion of the MBMS subframes coincides with a measurement gap configured for inter-frequency or inter-radio access technology (RAT) measurement, wherein determining the data receipt metric includes: determining a first number of encoding symbols that have been received for a file segment in the MBMS session; determining a second number of encoding symbols that should have been received for the file segment in the MBMS session; determining a third number that corresponds to a total number of encoding symbols to be received for the file segment in the MBMS session; and determining the data receipt ratio based on the first number, the second number, and the third number; determining whether the data receipt metric is in a first relationship with a first threshold; refraining from receiving the data during at least the portion of the MBMS subframes that coincides with the measurement gap based on a determination that the data receipt metric is in the first relationship with the first threshold; and performing the inter-frequency or inter-RAT measurement during the measurement gap in response to the determination that the data receipt metric is in the first relationship with the first threshold.
