Minimization of driving tests in dual connectivity networks

A wireless communications method, comprising:

• receiving, at a second base station, a request to associate a first base station with the second base station;
• receiving, from the first base station, an activation message to allow the second base station to receive network performance information;
• and
• sending, from the second base station to a user equipment, a configuration message including a configuration for the network performance information.

An apparatus comprising:

• a transceiver at a first base station, configured to receive an activation message to allow the first base station to receive the network performance information from a user equipment;
• and
• at least one processor at the first base station, configured to select the user equipment from a plurality of user equipment based on allowed network performance information;
• wherein the transceiver is further configured to send to the user equipment a configuration message including a configuration for the network performance information that includes the allowed network performance information.
