MOBILE COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM THEREOF FOR EARLY MEASURING SIGNAL OF A BASE STATION
First Claim
1. A method for early measuring a signal of a base station, comprising the steps of:
- positioning a location of a mobile communication apparatus;
determining whether the location is within a predetermined range, wherein the predetermined range is equal to or greater than an effective communication coverage of the base station; and
measuring the signal of the base station if the location is determined within the predetermined range.

Abstract
A positioning module positions a location of a mobile communication apparatus. A processor determines whether the location falls within a predetermined range, wherein the predetermined range is equal to or greater than an effective communication coverage of a neighboring base station. If the processor determines that the location is within the predetermined range, a signal detection module measures the signal from the neighboring base station. By detecting the signals of the neighboring base stations earlier, the present invention is able to function while the mobile communication apparatus moves at high speeds and successfully switch the connections between the base stations.
