Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a non-terrestrial network (NTN) measurement gap configuration indicating an association of a location configuration with a gap configuration. The UE may selectively perform a measurement of an NTN cell according to the gap configuration based at least in part on a match of a location of the UE to a location indicated by the location configuration. Numerous other aspects are described.
Claims28
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- receive a non-terrestrial network (NTN) measurement gap configuration indicating an association of a location configuration with a gap configuration, wherein the NTN measurement gap configuration is determined based at least in part on a predicted route of the UE;
- and
- selectively perform a measurement of an NTN cell according to the gap configuration based at least in part on a match of a location of the UE to a location indicated by the location configuration.
A network node for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- determine a non-terrestrial network (NTN) measurement gap configuration for a user equipment (UE) based at least in part on a predicted route of the UE, the NTN measurement gap configuration indicating an association of a location configuration with a gap configuration;
- and
- transmit the NTN measurement gap configuration for reception by the UE.
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- receive a non-terrestrial network (NTN) measurement gap configuration indicating probability information associated with measurement of an NTN cell during a time interval, wherein the probability information indicates a probability that the UE performs the measurement of the NTN cell at a given location;
- and
- selectively perform a measurement of the NTN cell according to a gap configuration and based at least in part on the probability information during the time interval.
A network node for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- determine a non-terrestrial network (NTN) measurement gap configuration for a user equipment (UE), the NTN measurement gap configuration indicating probability information associated with measurement of an NTN cell during a time interval, wherein the probability information indicates a probability that the UE performs the measurement of the NTN cell at a given location;
- and
- transmit the NTN measurement gap configuration for reception by the UE.
