    摘要: Systems and techniques for link condition reporting in multiple connection systems. A base station, such as a macro eNodeB (eNB) configures measurement objects and reporting objects for macro and local area links for a user device such as a user equipment (UE). The objects relating to the secondary links are configured for use when the user device is operating in a dual connection mode. Upon detection of a triggering event when the user device is in dual connection mode, the user device reports macro and secondary link information. In some embodiments of the invention, triggering may be based on events related to a specified frequency group, or may be direct measurements related to a specified frequency group.
