METHOD OF AND USER EQUIPMENT FOR IMPROVING AN SNPL REPORTING MECHANISM

摘要

A method (300) of and a User Equipment (UE) (208) for improving a Serving and Neighbour cell Pathloss (SNPL) reporting mechanism in a High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) service/an uplink service of High Speed Packet Access enhancement (HSPA+) in a Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) system for a handover of the UE (208) from a serving cell to a target cell are provided. The method comprises steps of receiving (302) a neighbour cell list of the target cell from a Radio Network Controller (RNC) (202), measuring (304) SNPLs for all of cells in the neighbour cell list of the target cell in addition to SNPLs for all of cells in a neighbour cell list of the serving cell, and reporting (306) the measured SNPLs based on a result of the handover for use with the HSUPA service/the uplink service of HSPA+.
