SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTER-RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGY RESELECTION

摘要

A method for cell reselection by a wireless communication device is described. The method includes signal strength of cells in one or more inter-radio access technology (inter-RAT) frequencies while camped on a serving cell in a connected mode. On releasing the connected mode and before moving to idle mode on the serving cell, the method also includes prioritizing the cells in the one or more inter-RAT frequencies based on a RAT preference order and the signal strength. The method further includes reselecting to a highest priority cell whose signal strength meets a cell selection criterion.
