Abstract

A method of reporting measurement report event first measures the parameters of a plurality of cells and sets a threshold curve for proving a specific standard corresponding to signal quality. If a specific parameter measured from a specific cell among the plurality of cells satisfies an initial trigger condition of a specific measurement report event, the specific measurement report event is reported.

Claims

1. A method of reporting a measurement report event, comprising:

measuring parameters of a plurality of cells;

determining if a specific parameter measured from a specific cell among the plurality of cells satisfies an initial trigger condition of a specific measurement report event;

determining if the specific parameter matches a specific standard associated with a signal quality; and

reporting the specific measurement report event if the specific parameter satisfies the initial trigger condition and matches the specific standard at a first point of time.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

providing a threshold curve of a constant value as the specific standard.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

providing a threshold curve as the specific standard according to a parameter measured from a best cell having a best signal quality among the plurality of cells.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein:

the specific cell is included in an active set;

the specific measurement report event is associated with a handover associated with an radio link removal; and

the method further comprises;

measuring a primary common pilot channel of the specific cell as the specific parameter;

determining that the primary common pilot channel matches the specific standard if the primary common pilot channel does not exceed a threshold value at the first point of time when satisfying the initial trigger condition; and

reporting the specific measurement report event for removing the specific cell from the active set.

5. The method of claim 4, further comprising:

determining that the primary common pilot channel does not match the specific standard if the primary common pilot channel exceeds the threshold value at a second point of time when satisfying the initial trigger condition; and

keeping the specific cell in the active set by not reporting the specific measurement report event.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein:

the specific cell is included in a monitor set;

the specific measurement report is associated with a handover associated with radio link addition; and

the method further comprises;

measuring a primary common pilot channel of the specific cell as the specific parameter;

determining that the primary common pilot channel matches the specific standard if the primary common pilot channel exceeds a threshold value at the first point of time when satisfying the initial trigger condition; and

reporting the specific measurement report event for adding the specific cell into a active set.

7. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

determining that the primary common pilot channel does not match the specific standard if the primary common pilot channel does not exceed the threshold value at a second point of time when satisfying the initial trigger condition; and

keeping the specific cell in the monitor set by not reporting the specific measurement report event.
