A method ( 600 ) for preparing an interfrequency handover of a certain communication connection from a first frequency to a second frequency features periodically intermitting ( 603 ) the transmission/receipt of data on the first frequency for certain transmission gaps. The number of transmission gaps is at least one during each transmission period and a certain sequence of transmission periods ( 420, 520 ) is used. Measurements are performed ( 607 ) on the second frequency during the transmission gaps on the first frequency. In the step of intermitting the transmission/receipt of data the transmission/receipt of data is intermitted within at least on transmission period for a certain transmission gap ( 311, 411 ) having a first duration and for a certain second transmission gap ( 312, 412 ) having a second duration. The second duration is different from the first duration. A mobile station ( 700 ), a network element ( 710 ) and a network control element ( 720 ) are also presented. |
