METHOD OF PREDICTING SUITABLE CANDIDATES FOR USER EQUIPMENT CELL RESELECTION IN MOBILE NETWORKS BASED ON THE DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT

摘要

Methods and apparatuses for predicting candidates for cell reselection are presented. In some embodiments, such a method may include determining, by a mobile device, a current direction of motion of the mobile device; determining, by the mobile device, based on network topology information, that at least two cells of a plurality of cells are located in the current direction of motion of the mobile device; prioritizing, by the mobile device, the at least two cells of the plurality of cells for reselection; measuring, by the mobile device, signal properties of the at least two prioritized cells based on the prioritizing; and selecting, by the mobile device, a first cell of the at least two prioritized cells for reselection, based on: a location of the first cell and the signal properties of the first cell.
