A user equipment (UE) camped on a first RAT and in a coverage area of a second RAT searches for one or more frequencies of the second RAT and measures one or more detected cells corresponding to the one or more frequencies of the second RAT. When the measurement indicates that cell reselection/handover trigger conditions are met the UE starts a cell reselection timer or time to trigger. The UE schedules a measurement of the neighbor cell during a time instance close to when the reselection timer or time to trigger expires.
