INTER-FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT CONTROL IN A MULTI-CARRIER SYSTEM

摘要

Techniques are disclosed for signaling a capability to operate in one or more carrier aggregation configurations and measurement gap requirements corresponding to the carrier aggregation configurations. Each carrier aggregation configuration may include one or more frequency bands and a mobile terminal can provide an indication of its measurement gap requirements for all or a subset of its supported frequency bands when operating in the carrier aggregation configurations. The measurement gap requirements may correspond to a physical or logical configuration of receiver resources and the signaling may be initiated by the mobile terminal or by a base station in communication with the mobile terminal.
