APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR DYNAMICALLY REPORTING INTER-SYSTEM MEASUREMENT CAPABILITY IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

Aspects of the disclosure provide apparatus and methods of inter-system measurements operable at a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network. The UE establishes a connection with a network node in a first wireless communication network utilizing a first radio access technology (RAT), wherein the UE is capable of measuring a plurality of frequency bands of a second RAT greater in number than a measurement capability report limit of the first RAT. The UE further selects a subset of the plurality of frequency bands of the second RAT to be included in a measurement capability information element (IE) based on information provided by the network node and information stored at the UE. The UE further transmits the measurement capability IE to the network node.
