PHYSICAL LAYER MEASUREMENT WITHOUT REPORTING FOR USER EQUIPMENT MOBILITY

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may measure physical layer parameters of one or more reference signals transmitted by one or more non-serving or neighbor base stations. The UE may store the measured physical layer parameters and, in the event that a handover command is received from a source base station to establish a connection with a target base station of one of the neighbor base stations, use the measured physical layer parameters for an uplink communication with the target base station, where the measured physical layer parameters are unreported by the UE prior to establishing the connection with the target base station.
