Measurement configuration method, measurement report method, base station and user equipment using the same

A measurement report method used in a user equipment, the measurement report method comprising:

• receiving a measurement configuration message from a base station, the measurement configuration message comprising:
• measurement object information indicating a cell to be measured by the user equipment, and
• report configuration information defining an event for triggering a measurement report of the cell by the user equipment,
• measuring the cell indicated by the measurement object information, and
• reporting to the base station measurement of the cell when the event occurs,
• wherein the measurement configuration message indicates whether the event is of a decoupling type or not.

A base station, comprising:

• a processing unit configured to generate a measurement configuration message for a user equipment, the measurement configuration message comprising:
• measurement object information indicating a cell to be measured by the user equipment, and
• report configuration information defining an event for triggering a measurement report of the cell by the user equipment, and
• a transmitting unit configured to transmit the measurement configuration message generated by the processing unit to the user equipment,
• wherein the measurement configuration message indicates whether the event is of a decoupling type or not.

A user equipment, comprising

• a receiving unit configured to receive a measurement configuration message from a base station, the measurement configuration message comprising:
• measurement object information indicating a cell to be measured by the user equipment, and
• report configuration information defining an event for triggering a measurement report of the cell by the user equipment,
• a measuring unit configured to measure the cell indicated by the measurement object information, and
• a measurement reporting unit configured to report to the base station measurement of the measuring unit,
• wherein the measurement configuration message indicates whether the event is of a decoupling type or not.
