Various communication systems may benefit from improved measurement performance. For example, it may be helpful to manage intra-frequency and inter-frequency allocation in a measurement gap. A method may include receiving at a user equipment a signal comprising a measurement gap usage indication from a network entity. The measurement gap usage indication may include a prioritization of at least one carrier type. The method may also include allocating the measurement gap to grant the prioritized at least one carrier type a percentage of the measurement gap based on the measurement gap usage indication.
