Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for reporting signal quality in overlapping Multimedia Broadcast Single Frequency Networks (MBSFN) areas. A UE may determine a signal quality estimate for each of two or more overlapping MBSFN areas based on Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) information and Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) information for the MBSFN area. The UE may then determine a combined signal quality based on the signal quality estimates of the MBSFN areas.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives a user service description (USD) message. When a frequency indicated in the USD message is not a current frequency, the apparatus determines that a system information message is received, determines that the frequency indicated in the USD message is included in the system information message, determines that the frequency is a neighboring cell frequency, sets a priority of the frequency to a highest priority, and measures a signal strength of the frequency when the frequency is included in the system information message, performs a cell reselection determination procedure based on the signal strength of the frequency, performs cell reselection to the neighboring cell based on a result of the cell reselection determination procedure, and acquires the multicast service in the neighboring cell on the frequency.
Abstract:
A method for inter-frequency cell reselection by a wireless communication device is described. The wireless communication device camps on a serving cell. An evolved multimedia broadcast multicast service (eMBMS) service provided by a neighbor cell is discovered. Inter-frequency parameters of the neighbor cell are measured. It is determined whether to perform an inter-frequency cell reselection based on one or more inter-frequency cell reselection factors. An inter-frequency cell reselection to the neighbor cell is performed.
