Abstract
In a universal mobile telecommunications system, a radio access network includes multiple base stations for communicating with user equipment. The radio access network is configured to send the user equipment a measurement control message which includes configuration information and a location reporting indicator. The user equipment is configured to perform a minimization of drive test according to the configuration information, and provide location information along with the recorded measurement result according to the location reporting indicator.

A method of operating a user equipment for providing a measurement report to a network in a universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS), comprising:
- the user equipment receiving a measurement control message having a configuration information and a location reporting indicator from the network;
- the user equipment performing a minimization of drive test (MDT)
- according to the configuration information and recording MDT data;
- the user equipment providing a first measurement report associated with a
- first reporting event indicated by the configuration information to the network when the first reporting event is satisfied;
- and
- the user equipment providing a first location information along with the first measurement report to the network when the first reporting event is selected in the location reporting indicator,
- wherein the first location information is associated with a location of the user equipment when the first reporting event is satisfied;
- wherein the configuration information indicates M reporting event types each having one or multiple reporting events
- the location reporting indicator includes a single bit set to a first value for selecting N reporting event types among the M reporting event types or set to a second value for deselecting the N reporting event types among the M reporting event types;
- M and N are positive integers;
- and M is larger or equal to N.
