Abstract

An apparatus, comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the apparatus at least to perform: receiving, at a user equipment from a network node, a measurement validity configuration specifying radio interface measurement characteristics required to be met by the user equipment to obtain valid measurements; and determining, at the user equipment, whether radio interface measurements made by the user equipment meet the measurement validity configuration and, if so, providing an indication to the network node that valid measurements have been obtained.

Dependent claims

A user equipment, comprising:

at least one processor;
and
at least one memory storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the user equipment at least to perform:
receiving, at the user equipment from a network node, a measurement validity configuration specifying radio interface measurement characteristics required to be met by the user equipment to obtain valid measurements;
and
determining, at the user equipment, whether radio interface measurements made by the user equipment meet the measurement validity configuration and, if so, providing an indication to the network node that valid measurements have been obtained, without providing to the network measurement results of the radio interface measurements.

3 more elements

A network node, comprising:

at least one processor;
and
at least one memory storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the network node at least to perform:
receiving, at the network node, an indication of at least one candidate target cell;
determining, at the network node, a measurement validity configuration specifying radio interface measurement characteristics required to be met by a user equipment to obtain valid measurements for the at least one candidate target cell;
transmitting, to the user equipment, the measurement validity configuration;
receiving, from the user equipment, an indication that valid measurements have been obtained, without receiving measurement results of the radio interface measurements;
and
indicating, to the user equipment, that the at least one candidate target cell is suitable for selection.
