METHODS OF OBTAINING MEASUREMENTS IN THE PRESENCE OF STRONG AND/OR HIGHLY VARYING INTERFERENCE
First Claim
1. A method of operation of a node in a cellular communications network, comprising:
- performing a reference measurement at the node, the reference measurement containing one or more interference components;
mitigating at least one interference component of the one or more interference components contained in the reference measurement at the node to thereby provide an effective measurement; and
signaling of the effective measurement to another node.

Abstract
Systems and methods for obtaining effective measurements in a cellular communications network are disclosed. In one embodiment, a node (i.e., a measuring node) in a cellular communications network performs a reference measurement at the node, where the reference measurement contains one or more interference components. The node then mitigates at least one of the interference components contained in the reference measurement to thereby provide an effective measurement. In one embodiment, the effective measurement is used by the measuring node, reported to another node, or both used by the measuring node and reported to another node.

36. A node for operation in a cellular communications network, comprising:
-
a radio subsystem configured to provide wireless communication in the cellular communications network; and a processing subsystem associated with the radio subsystem, the processing subsystem being configured to; perform a reference measurement at the node, the reference measurement containing one or more interference components; mitigate at least one interference component of the one or more interference components contained in the reference measurement at the node to thereby provide an effective measurement; and signal the effective measurement to another node.
