ENHANCEMENT OF A CELL RESELECTION PARAMETER IN HETEROGENEOUS NETWORKS
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
determining parameter data indicative of a common parameter associated with access point devices that are determined to belong to a common category, andfacilitating a transmission of the parameter data to a user equipment to facilitate cell reselection associated with the user equipment.

Abstract
A cell reselection procedure in heterogeneous networks is enhanced based on utilization of per category cell reselection parameters. In one aspect, a serving access point can categorize a set of neighbor access points based on cell-type and/or cell-profile data of a set of neighbor access points. Further, the serving access point can determine cell reselection parameters for the different categories. As an example, offset data (Qoffset) can be determined for the different categories. The per category cell reselection parameters can be transmitted to user equipment coupled to the serving access point to facilitate cell reselection. In one example, the per category cell reselection parameters reduce operational costs associated with processing and transmission of system parameters.

9. A method, comprising:
-
determining, by a system comprising a processor, profile data employable to categorize access point devices; assigning, by the system, first parameter data to a first group of the access point devices that is determined to be associated with a first category; and assigning, by the system, second parameter data to a second group of the access point devices that is determined to be associated with a second category, wherein the assigning comprises assigning the first parameter data and the second parameter data to be employable to instruct a user equipment to facilitate cell reselection. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
