RESELECTION OPTIMIZATION IN MOBILE WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES AND METHODS THEREFOR

摘要

Reselection methods for wireless communication devices, for example cellular telephones, that reduce power consumption by receiving periodic paging information (210) concurrently with the performance of periodic signal measurements (230) and reselection processing (250) to increase minimal power consumption mode operation. In some embodiment, the reselection processing (252) is performed on prior signal measurements (230) while obtaining present signal measurement data (240).
