Abstract
The present disclosure relates to adaptive signal strength thresholds and other parameters to support reduced capability UEs. In embodiments of the present invention, a UE receives a first signal strength threshold value from a network node, and, from the received first signal strength threshold value, the UE derives a second signal strength threshold value associated with a receiver configuration supported by the UE for performing a radio procedure. The derived second signal strength threshold value is used when performing the radio procedure.
Claims27
A method implemented by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
- receiving a first signal strength threshold value from a network node;
- deriving a second signal strength threshold value associated with a receiver configuration supported by the UE for performing a radio procedure, the second signal strength threshold value being derived from the received first signal strength threshold value;
- and
- performing the radio procedure using the second signal strength threshold value.

A method implemented by a network node in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
- determining a first receiver configuration supported by a UE for performing a radio procedure;
- and
- sending, to the UE, a first signal strength threshold value associated with a second receiver configuration for the UE to derive, from the first signal strength threshold value, a second signal strength threshold value associated with the first receiver configuration.
