METHODS, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAMS FOR CONTROLLING A USER EQUIPMENT

摘要

A user equipment takes measurements in response to a triggering event (402). The measurements may include measurements relating to maintaining a connection with the network. The measurements may also include measurements directed by a network. The user equipment evaluates its signal conditions (404) and, if it is experiencing unfavourable signal conditions, discards measurements other than those relating to maintaining a connection with the network and prepares a report relating to only those measurements (408).

主权项

1. An apparatus for controlling a user equipment, the apparatus comprising:
a processing system constructed and arranged to cause the apparatus to perform actions comprising at least: evaluating measurements of signal conditions relating to the operation of a user equipment in a wireless communication network to determine if the user equipment is experiencing unfavourable signal conditions; and if the user equipment is experiencing unfavourable signal conditions, reporting to the network only signal conditions relevant to maintaining a network connection for the user equipment.
