Mobile communication apparatuses, method for performing signal reception quality measurements and method for ascertaining a movement by a mobile communication apparatus

1. A mobile communication apparatus, comprising:

a receiver;

a first subscriber identity module for using a first mobile radio communication network and a second subscriber identity module for using a second mobile radio communication network;

an ascertainment device, comprising at least one processor, configured to ascertain, based on adjacent cell measurements from the first subscriber identity module or based on at least one configuration parameter pertaining to usage of the first mobile communication network via the first subscriber identity module, whether a movement of the mobile communication apparatus is below a prescribed limit; and

a control device, comprising at least one processor, configured to prompt the receiver to perform a signal reception quality measurement of a signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network based on whether a movement of the mobile communication apparatus is below the prescribed limit as determined from the first mobile communication network;

wherein the control device is set up to prompt the receiver to perform the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network if the movement is not below the prescribed limit and to prompt the receiver not to perform the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network if the movement is below the prescribed limit and is further configured to report a previous reception quality measurement to the second mobile radio communication network to simulate a performed reception quality measurement if the movement is below the prescribed limit.

2. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the ascertainment device is set up to ascertain whether the mobile communication apparatus is stationary.

3. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 2 ,

wherein the control device is set up to prompt the receiver to perform the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network if the mobile communication apparatus is not stationary and to prompt the receiver not to perform the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network if said mobile communication apparatus is stationary.

4. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the control device is set up to use the receiver to maintain a communication link to the first mobile radio communication network.

5. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network is a measurement of a reception quality of a radio cell that serves the mobile communication apparatus.

6. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network is a measurement of the reception quality of a radio cell in the second mobile radio communication network that is adjacent to a radio cell that serves the mobile communication apparatus.

7. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the mobile communication apparatus is a mobile radio terminal.

8. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network is not performed if a communication link is active for the first mobile radio communication network in addition to the movement being below the prescribed limit.

9. The mobile communication apparatus as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the previous reception quality measurement is performed before a setup of the communication link.

10. A method for performing signal reception quality measurements by a mobile communication apparatus, the method comprising:

ascertaining, through use of an ascertainment device, comprising at least one processor that is configured to ascertain, based on adjacent cell measurements from a first subscriber identity module or based on at least one configuration parameter pertaining to usage of a first mobile communication network via a first subscriber identity module, whether a movement of the mobile communication apparatus is below a prescribed limit;

prompting, by a control device, comprising at least one processor that is configured to prompt, a receiver in the mobile communication apparatus to perform a signal reception quality measurement of a signal received by the receiver from a second mobile radio communication network based on whether a movement of the mobile communication apparatus is below the prescribed limit as determined from the first mobile communication network, wherein the control device is set up to prompt the receiver to perform the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network if the movement is not below the prescribed limit and to prompt the receiver not to perform the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network if the movement is below the prescribed limit; and

reporting, by the control device, a previous reception quality measurement to the second mobile radio communication network to simulate a performed reception quality measurement if the movement is below the prescribed limit.

11. The method as claimed in claim 10 ,

wherein the signal reception quality measurement of the signal received by the receiver from the second mobile radio communication network is not performed if a communication link is active for the first mobile radio communication network in addition to the movement being below the prescribed limit.

12. The method as claimed in claim 11 ,

wherein the previous reception quality measurement is performed before a setup of the communication link.
