NB-IoT Device Performing Neighboring Link Measurement Despite Refraining Condition

Abstract:

A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network determines a snapshot value of a serving link signal received quality while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements. Responsive to detecting, while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements, that signal received quality of a serving link has dropped by at least a threshold amount below the snapshot value, the UE performs a neighbor link measurement.
