Classification: CPC H  Y | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. An apparatus for a user equipment (UE), comprising:
a memory to store acquired information; and
one or more processors configured to cause the UE to:
perform, based on the acquired information, in at least one of an idle mode and an inactive mode, an intra-frequency neighbor cell measurement,
wherein the acquired information comprises at least one of:
a group of a periodicity of synchronization signal and physical broadcast channel block (SSB)-based measurement timing configuration (SMTC) and a periodicity of SMTC2-long periodicity (SMTC2-LP); and
a physical cell identifier (PCI) list of SMTC2-LP, and

wherein the one or more processors configured to cause the UE to perform the intra-frequency neighbor cell measurement are further configured to cause the UE to:
determine whether the intra-frequency neighbor cell measurement is applicable for time line extension; and
in response to a determination that the intra-frequency neighbor cell measurement is applicable for the time line extension, utilize a factor for the time line extension.
