<p>For each of a plurality of received system information SI a cache entry is stored in a SI cache of a user equipment UE, each including at least some of the received SI, a timestamp of when the SI was first stored, and at least some of the cache entries also have relevance data relating the respective cache entry to one or more other cache entries. While the UE is in a state such as a CELL-FACH state, in which no dedicated physical channel is allocated to the UE, a cache entry is selected for at least one neighbor cell, and that cache entry is related by its relevance data to the cache entry of the serving cell or determined from its timestamp to be in close proximity to the serving cell. The UE then identifies the selected neighbor cell in an uplink message as a suitable candidate for multipoint communications with the UE. Also mentioned is the use of algorithms for cleaning old data from the cache.</p> |
