Method, apparatus and computer program for a wireless device

摘要

If a wireless device determines (300) that wireless transmissions to a network are not possible, then the wireless device suspends (310) passing of measurement report messages to a lower layer of the wireless device for transmission to the network. Whilst passing of measurement report messages to the lower layer of the wireless device is suspended, the wireless device buffers (320) a predetermined number of measurement report messages. Any new reports are stored in the buffer overwriting previous reports. When transmission to the network can be resumed, other uplink messages of higher priority than the measurement reports can be transmitted quickly since there are few pending measurement reports for transmission. In the embodiment measurement reports are not sent from the RRC layer to the data link layer or physical layer if an â out of syncâ condition occurs. On re-sync RRC response messages for a Cell Update Confirm message can be transmitted to the network first.
