FCCH burst detection abort method for inter-radio access technology (IRAT) measurement

摘要

A system acquisition is initiated to perform inter radio access technology (IRAT) measurement. A waiting period of time is provided before aborting the system acquisition. The period of time is adjustable based on at least one metric. The metric can be a frequency of available measurement gaps, a total number of available measurement gaps, and/or a length of each measurement gap within a subframe. The metric could also be an absolute signal strength of a single neighbor cell and/or a relative signal strength between neighbor cells. The metric could also be a user equipment (UE) measured signal strength compared to a network indicated threshold value for triggering an IRAT measurement report. The metric could also be a percentage of a tone that falls within a measurement gap.

主权项

1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
initiating, at a user equipment (UE), a system acquisition to perform inter radio access technology (IRAT) measurement; and waiting, at the UE, a period of time before aborting the system acquisition, the period of time being adjustable based at least in part on at least one metric comprising at least one of an absolute signal strength of a single neighbor cell or a relative signal strength between neighbor cells.
