Reporting cell measurement results in a cellular communication system
DCFirst Claim
1. A method in a cellular communication system for reporting cell measurement results associated with cells of the system from a transceiver station via a radio interface between the transceiver station and a cell serving the transceiver station, comprising:
- defining a reporting sequence of the cells to be used by the transceiver station for reporting;
performing cell measurements at the transceiver station for getting cell measurement results associated with at least some of the cells;
selecting relevant cell measurement results from the performed cell measurements; and
reporting the cell measurement results from the transceiver station in the defined reporting sequence without including any identification parameters of the cells.

Abstract
The present invention relates to reporting cell measurement results associated with a plurality of cells of a cellular communication system. The reporting is transmitted from a station via a radio interface to receiver element of a cell serving the station. The cells are arranged in a reporting order that is to be used by the station for the reporting. The cell measurements are performed by the transceiver station for getting cell measurement results associated with a number of the cells. Relevant cell measurement results are then selected and the selected results are transmitted in the defined reporting order.
