Abstract
A mobile station determines, in accordance with reception quality of a radio signal from a base station, a measurement cycle of a predetermined measurement on a link status and/or on/off of the predetermined measurement and controls execution of the predetermined measurement based on the determination.
Claims18
A mobile terminal comprising:
- a controller configured to compare a measured serving cell quality value of a signal transmitted from a serving cell with a threshold, and to determine whether to perform a measurement of a non-serving cell quality value of a signal to be transmitted from a non-serving cell based on a result of a comparison of the measured serving cell quality value and the threshold,
- wherein the controller is configured to perform the measurement of the non-serving cell quality value and to associate a position information available in the mobile terminal with a result of the measurement, in response to the measured serving cell quality value being equal to or less than the threshold;
- and
- a transmitter configured to report, to a network, the result of the measurement and the position information associated with the result of the measurement.

A base station comprising,
- a receiver configured to receive, from a mobile terminal, a result signal including a result of a measurement of a non-serving cell quality value based on a signal transmitted from a non-serving cell and position information available in the mobile terminal;
- wherein the mobile terminal comprising:
- a controller configured to compare a measured serving cell quality value of a signal transmitted from a serving cell with a threshold, and to determine whether to perform the measurement of the non-serving cell quality value of the signal to be transmitted from the non-serving cell based on a result of a comparison of the measured serving cell quality value and the threshold,
- wherein the controller is configured to perform the measurement of the non-serving cell quality value and to associate the position information with the result of the measurement, in response to the measured serving cell quality value being equal to or less than the threshold;
- and
- a transmitter configured to report, to the base station, the result of the measurement and the position information associated with the result of the measurement.

A method of a mobile terminal comprising:
- comparing a measured serving cell quality value of a signal transmitted from a serving cell with a threshold;
- determining whether to perform a measurement of a non-serving cell quality value of a signal to be transmitted from a non-serving cell based on a result of a comparison of the measured serving cell quality value and the threshold;
- performing the measurement of the non-serving cell quality value if the measured serving cell quality value is equal to or less than the threshold;
- associating position information available in the mobile terminal, with a result of the measurement, in response to the measured serving cell quality value being equal to or less than the threshold;
- and
- reporting, to a network, the result of the measurement and the position information associated with the result of the measurement.

A method of a base station comprising,
- by a base station, receiving, from a mobile terminal, a result signal including a result of a measurement of a non-serving cell quality value based on a signal transmitted from a non-serving cell and position information available in the mobile terminal;
- wherein the mobile terminal comprising:
- a controller configured to compare a measured serving cell quality value of a signal transmitted from a serving cell with a threshold, and to determine whether to perform the measurement of the non-serving cell quality value of the signal to be transmitted from the non-serving cell, based on a result of a comparison of the measured serving cell quality value and the threshold,
- wherein the controller is configured to perform the measurement of the non-serving cell quality value and to associate the position information with the result of the measurement, in response to the measured serving cell quality value being equal to or less than the threshold;
- and
- a transmitter configured to report, to the base station, the result of the measurement and the position information associated with the result of the measurement.
