Claim 13:
14. A method, comprising:
establishing a wireless link with a user equipment (UE) via a serving cell;
transmitting, to the UE from the serving cell, configuration information, the configuration information indicating:
a first number of intra-frequency measurement layers; and
a second number of inter-frequency measurement layers, wherein a first measurement period for inter-frequency layer 1, L1, measurement on a first neighbor cell is determinable identifiable based on at least the first number of intra-frequency measurement layers and the second number of inter-frequency measurement layers, wherein the first measurement period comprises whichever is larger between a measurement gap repetition period (MGRP) and a neighbor cell reference signal periodicity, wherein the neighbor cell reference signal periodicity is indicated by the configuration information;

transmitting, via the first neighbor cell, at least one reference signal; and
receiving, from the UE, a report of at least one L1 measurement of the at least one reference signal, wherein the first measurement period for inter- frequency L1 measurement on the first neighbor cell is applied in performing the at least one L1 measurement.
