Abstract

A first, second and third node as well as methods performed thereby are provided for providing a measurement result to the second node by the wireless device. The method performed by the wireless device comprises obtaining an adaptive resolution factor; and providing a combined measurement report based on the obtained adaptive resolution factor and a measurement result, wherein a combined measurement report comprises at least two reported levels, which jointly represents the measurement result, to the second node.

Claims (17)

1. A method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication network for providing a measurement result to a second node, the method comprising:

obtaining an adaptive resolution factor, wherein the adaptive resolution factor is used to determine a reporting range of a measured reference signal time difference (RSTD) result and is selected based on the measured RSTD result; and

providing a combined measurement report based on the obtained adaptive resolution factor and the measured RSTD result, wherein the combined measurement report comprises at least two reported levels, which jointly represents the reporting range of the measured RSTD result, to the second node.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising obtaining a measurement result.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the obtaining of the measurement results comprises (a) performing a radio measurement on a received signal or receiving the measurement result from another node; or (b) receiving the measurement result from another node.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the resolution factor is selected among a factor of 0.5 and 1.0, if the measurement result is below a threshold.

5. A wireless device for providing a measurement result to a second node, the wireless device comprising:

at least one processing circuitry; and

at least one storage that stores processor-executable instructions, when executed by the processing circuitry, causes a user equipment to:

obtain an adaptive resolution factor; wherein the adaptive resolution factor is used to determine a reporting range of a measured reference signal time difference (RSTD) result and is selected based on the measured RSTD result; and

provide a combined measurement report based on the obtained adaptive resolution factor and the measured RSTD result, wherein the combined measurement report comprises at least two reported levels, which jointly represents the reporting range of the measured RSTD result, to the second node.

6. The wireless device according to claim 5 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to obtain a measurement result.

7. The wireless device according to claim 6 , wherein the wireless device is configured to obtain the measurement results by (a) performing a radio measurement on a received signal or receiving the measurement result from another node; or (b) receiving the measurement result from another node.

8. The wireless device according to claim 5 , wherein the resolution factor is selected among a factor of 0.5 and 1.0, if the measurement result is below a threshold.

9. A Computer program product stored in a non-transitory computer readable medium, which when run in a processor causes a wireless device to perform a method for providing a measurement result to a second node, the method comprising:

obtaining an adaptive resolution factor, wherein the adaptive resolution factor is used to determine a reporting range of a measured reference signal time difference (RSTD) result and is selected based on the measured RSTD result; and

providing a combined measurement report based on the obtained adaptive resolution factor and the measured RSTD result, wherein the combined measurement report comprises at least two reported levels, which jointly represents the reporting range of the measured RSTD result, to the second node.
