Claim 14:
15. A method for operating a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving configuration information for measuring interference from a neighboring cell;
measuring the interference from the neighboring cell based on the configuration information;
measuring signal quality of a serving cell;
computing a change in the measured interference from the neighboring cell based on a current measured interference level of the neighboring cell and a previous measured interference level of the neighboring cell;
updating a first threshold based on the signal quality of the serving cell;
determining, based on at least in part a determination that the change in the measured interference exceeds the first threshold, whether to generate a measurement report; and
transmitting the measurement report on an uplink channel,
wherein the first threshold is an adaptive threshold based on the measured signal quality of the serving cell of the UE.
