Dormant Cell RRM Measurement Reporting

A method, comprising:

• configuring, at a base station, a measurement configuration message for causing user equipment served by the base station to perform and report measurements on cells,
• the measurement configuration message comprising information indicating criteria impacting a measurement reporting procedure with respect to the cells,
• the said criteria being related to at least one of the state of a cell, a type of a cell, and a type of a signal used for the measurements of the cells, and
• transmitting said configured measurement configuration message to the user equipment.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, at a user equipment, from a serving base station, a measurement configuration message for causing the user equipment to perform and report measurements on cells,
• the measurement configuration message comprising information indicating criteria impacting a measurement reporting procedure with respect to the cells,
• the said criteria being related to at least one of the state of a cell, a type of a cell, and a type of a signal used for the measurements of the cells,
• performing the measurement and composing a measurement report based on the measurement configuration message, and
• transmitting the measurement report to the base station.

An apparatus comprising

• at least one processor, and
• at least one memory for storing instructions to be executed by the processor, wherein the at least one memory and the instructions are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to
• receive from a serving base station, a measurement configuration message for causing a user equipment to perform and report measurements on cells,
• the measurement configuration message comprising information indicating criteria impacting a measurement reporting procedure with respect to the cells,
• said criteria being related to at least one of the state of a cell, a type of a cell, and a type of a signal used for the measurements of the cells, and
• perform the measurement and composing a measurement report based on the measurement configuration message, and
• transmit the measurement report to the serving base station.
