METHOD FOR ADAPTING CELL CHANGE TIME IN A MULTI-CELL WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

A method and system for performing cell change by a wireless device are disclosed. According to one aspect, the cell change is from a first group of cells of a first radio access technology, RAT, to a second group of cells of a second RAT. Performance of a cell change includes receiving a cell change command. In response to the cell change command, the wireless device synchronizes to interoperate with a first cell of the second group of cells of the second RAT within a first specified period of time. The wireless device synchronizes to interoperate with at least one remaining cell of the second group of cells of the second RAT within a second specified period of time ending after an end of the first specified period of time.

主权项

1. A method of cell change involving a wireless device, the cell change being from a first group of cells to a multi-cell configuration of a second group of cells, the method comprising:
receiving a cell change command; synchronizing the wireless device to interoperate with a first cell of the second group of cells within a first specified period of time; and synchronizing the wireless device to interoperate with at least one remaining cell of the second group of cells within a second specified period of time ending after an end of the first specified period of time.
