## Abstract

According to certain embodiments, a method in a wireless device for measurement reporting comprises: receiving an instruction to perform measurement reporting for a neighbor cell; determining, based at least on a radio access technology (RAT) of the neighbor cell and a frequency range of the neighbor cell, a measurement reporting timer value for performing the measurement reporting; and measuring a radio signal of the neighbor cell during the time specified by the determined measurement reporting timer value.
