Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. According to these techniques, a user equipment (UE) may determine that the UE is in a serving cell, identify at least one forbidden neighbor cell while the UE is in the serving cell, and adjust a measurement interval of the at least one forbidden neighbor cell while the UE is in the serving cell.
Claims26
A method for wireless communication, the method comprising:
- determining that a user equipment (UE) is in a serving cell associated with a first radio access technology (RAT);
- identifying at least one forbidden neighbor cell associated with a second RAT while the UE is in the serving cell, wherein the first RAT is different from the second RAT;
- and
- adjusting a measurement interval of the at least one forbidden neighbor cell while the UE is in the serving cell, wherein the adjusting the measurement interval comprises increasing the measurement interval by a measurement interval factor.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a memory communicatively coupled with the at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute code stored on the memory to:
- determine that a user equipment (UE) is in a serving cell associated with a first radio access technology (RAT);
- identify at least one forbidden neighbor cell associated with a second RAT while the UE is in the serving cell, wherein the first RAT is different from the second RAT;
- and
- adjust a measurement interval of the at least one forbidden neighbor cell by increasing a measurement interval factor of the measurement interval while the UE is in the serving cell.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- means for determining that a user equipment (UE) is in a serving cell associated with a first radio access technology (RAT);
- means for identifying at least one forbidden neighbor cell associated with a second RAT while the UE is in the serving cell, wherein the first RAT is different from the second RAT;
- and
- means for adjusting a measurement interval of the at least one forbidden neighbor cell while the UE is in the serving cell, wherein the means for adjusting the measurement interval comprises means for increasing the measurement interval by a measurement interval factor.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communication, the code comprising instructions executable to:
- determine that a user equipment (UE) is in a serving cell associated with a first radio access technology (RAT);
- identify at least one forbidden neighbor cell associated with a second RAT while the UE is in the serving cell, wherein the first RAT is different from the second RAT;
- and
- adjust a measurement interval of the at least one forbidden neighbor cell by increasing a measurement interval factor of the measurement interval while the UE is in the serving cell.
