Abstract: Method and apparatus to trigger a handover of a mobile device from a serving cell to a neighbor cell based on signal quality are disclosed. The mobile device measures signal strength and signal quality for the serving cell. When the signal strength exceeds a network-defined threshold and the signal quality falls below a mobile device defined threshold, the mobile device measures at least one neighbor cell. When a neighbor cell exceeds the network-defined threshold for signal strength and also meets the mobile device defined signal quality threshold, the mobile device sends a measurement report to the serving cell to trigger the handover. The measurement report includes modified values that indicate the serving cell does not meet network-defined threshold values and that the neighbor cell outperforms the serving cell.

Abstract translation: 公开了基于信号质量来触发移动设备从服务小区切换到相邻小区的方法和装置。 移动设备测量服务小区的信号强度和信号质量。 当信号强度超过网络定义的阈值并且信号质量低于移动设备定义的阈值时，移动设备测量至少一个相邻小区。 当相邻小区超过信号强度的网络定义阈值并且还满足移动设备定义的信号质量阈值时，移动设备向服务小区发送测量报告以触发切换。 测量报告包括修改的值，其指示服务小区不满足网络定义的阈值，并且相邻小区优于服务小区。
