A wireless communication device receives control information from the wireless communication network. The control information indicates at least a first measurement configuration for channel measurements to be applied in a first connection state of the wireless communication device and a second measurement configuration for channel measurements to be applied in a second connection state of the wireless communication device. If the wireless communication device is in the first connection state, the wireless communication device controls channel measurements by the wireless communication device according to the first measurement configuration. If the wireless communication device is in the second connection state, the wireless communication device controls channel measurements by the wireless communication device according to the second measurement configuration.
