The number of measurements being performed in a telecommunications system can be reduced by performing a predetermined measurement in Cell A and in co-located Cell B, step 1 , for example a received signal code power (RSCP) measurement. The difference between the two signals is determined, and stored for future reference, step 3 . Once the difference value has been established, the mobile station no longer needs to perform measurements on both Cell A and Cell B. Instead, if a subsequent measurement is made on Cell A, step 5 , the network can estimate the measurement for Cell B based on the difference signal previously determined, step 7. |
