Apparatus and method of reporting measurement result in wireless communication system
A method and apparatus of reporting measurement results in a wireless communication system is provided. A user equipment receives a measurement con figuration which configures a plurality of serving cells as measurement objects and performs measurements for the plurality of serving cells based on the measurement configuration to determine measurement results for the plurality of serving cells. The user equipment reports the measurement results for the plurality of serving cells.
1. A method of reporting measurement results in a wireless communication system, comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment from a base station, a measurement configuration for a plurality of serving cells;
performing, by the user equipment, measurements of each serving frequency for the plurality of serving cells based on the measurement configuration to determine measurement results for each of the plurality of serving cells;
performing, by the user equipment, measurements for two or more neighboring cells to determine a measurement result of a best neighboring cell for each serving frequency; and
reporting, by the user equipment to the base station, the measurement results for each of the plurality of serving cells and the measurement result of the best neighboring cell for each serving frequency.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement configuration includes an indicator indicating whether measurement results for each best neighboring cell are to be reported.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the measurement configuration includes a measurement criterion that is associated with at least one measurement object and is used to trigger the reporting of the measurement results.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the at least one serving frequency is other than a frequency corresponding with a measurement object that triggers the reporting of the measurement results.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the indicator is associated with the measurement object that triggers the reporting of the measurement results.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of serving cells includes a primary cell and one or more secondary cells.
7. An apparatus for reporting measurement results in a wireless communication system, comprising:
a radio frequency unit for transmitting and receiving radio signals; and
a processor operatively coupled with the radio frequency unit and configured to:
receive, from a base station, a measurement configuration for a plurality of serving cells;
perform measurements of each serving frequency for the plurality of serving cells based on the measurement configuration to determine measurement results for each of the plurality of serving cells;
perform measurements for two or more neighboring cells to determine a measurement result of a best neighboring cell for each serving frequency; and
report, to the base station, the measurement results for each of the plurality of serving cells and the measurement result of the best neighboring cell for each serving frequency.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the measurement configuration includes an indicator indicating whether measurement results for each best neighboring cell are to be reported.
9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the measurement configuration includes a measurement criterion that is associated with at least one measurement object and is used to trigger the processor to report the measurement results.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the at least one serving frequency is other than the frequency corresponding with a measurement object that triggers the processor to report the measurement results.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the indicator is associated with the measurement object that triggers the processor to report the measurement results.
12. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of serving cells includes a primary cell and one or more secondary cells.
