Abstract
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising a processor configured to receive a set of gap patterns, and measurement activities associated therewith, wherein each of the gap patterns includes an identifier for the measurement activity to be performed, and measure a signal pursuant to at least one of the gap patterns to obtain a measurement.
Claims13
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- send a measurement gap request message associated with a millimeter wave (mmW) beam measurement that includes a measurement gap requirement related to a capability associated with the WTRU or a measurement status associated with the WTRU;
- receive a first measurement gap pattern associated with a wide beam measurement of a mmW serving cell and a second measurement gap pattern associated with a narrow beam measurement of a mmW neighbor cell, and wherein the first measurement gap pattern and the second measurement gap pattern co-exist within a time period;
- and
- perform the wide beam measurement of the mmW serving cell and the narrow beam measurement of the mmW neighbor cell within the time period using the first measurement gap pattern and the second measurement gap pattern that co-exist within the time period.

A method of evaluating connectivity in a millimeter wave (mmW) system, the method comprising:
- sending a measurement gap request message associated with a mmW beam measurement that includes a measurement gap requirement related to a capability associated with a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) or a measurement status associated with the WTRU;
- receiving a first measurement gap pattern associated with a wide beam measurement or a mmW serving cell an a second measurement gap pattern associated with a narrow beam measurement of a mmW neighbor cell, and wherein the first measurement gap pattern and the second measurement gap pattern co-exist within a time period;
- and
- performing the wide beam measurement of the mmW serving cell and the narrow beam measurement of the mmW neighbor cell within the time period using the first measurement gap pattern and the second measurement gap pattern that co-exist within the time period.
