Patent ID: 11877172
Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A user equipment (UE) comprising:
a transceiver configured to receive configuration information for measuring interference from a neighboring cell; and
a processor operably coupled to the transceiver, the processor configured to:
measure, via the transceiver, the interference from the neighboring cell based on the configuration information,
measure, via the transceiver, signal quality of a serving cell,
compute 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,
update a first threshold based on the signal quality of the serving cell, and
determine, 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,

wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit the measurement report on an uplink channel, and
wherein the first threshold is an adaptive threshold based on the measured signal quality of the serving cell of the UE.
