CHANNEL QUALITY MEASUREMENT REPORTING

Abstract:

Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to perform downlink (DL) channel quality measurement reporting is disclosed. The UE can decode a system information block type y bandwidth reduced (SIBy-BR) received from an eNodeB. The SIB1-BR can instruct the UE to include a DL channel quality measurement report in a message 3 (Msg3) transmitted during a random access procedure between the UE and the eNodeB, wherein y is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. The UE can determine a DL channel quality measurement for a DL channel between the UE and the eNodeB. The UE can encode the Msg3 for delivery over an uplink channel to the eNodeB. The Msg3 can be delivered during the random access procedure and can include the DL channel quality measurement report with the DL channel quality measurement.
