Abstract
A user equipment for obtaining data for observing performance related to Random Access in a cellular radio system is provided. The user equipment can connect to the system. In order to provide the network/system with data for observing the random access procedure the user equipment measures and stores data needed to compute measurements to be reported to the system. The user equipment further generates a measurement report, and transmits the measurement report based on a trigger event.

27. A method in a user equipment of reporting information for observing performance of random access in a cellular radio system, the method comprising:
-
storing data needed to compute measurements that are to be reported and that are associated with said random access; computing said measurements; generating a measurement report for said measurements to include an indication of whether a contention has occurred in attempting to acquire said random access; and transmitting the measurement report based on a trigger event. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
