Claim Text:
1. A method performed by a controlling node of a cellular network for wireless communication, to control measurements on signals to or from a User Equipment, UE, engaged in a radio communication in a cluster cell of the cellular network, wherein the cluster cell is served by multiple transmission points, the method comprising: identifying a set of conditions potentially affecting performance of the radio communication in the cluster cell; selecting at least one type of reference signals and a corresponding at least one type of radio measurement to be made on the selected at least one type of reference signals, based on the identified set of conditions, wherein the at least one type of reference signals and the corresponding at least one type of radio measurement are selected from a mapping table which maps different possible conditions to different possible types of reference signals and corresponding radio measurements; obtaining measurements made on the selected at least one type of reference signals according to the selected at least one type of radio measurement; configuring a UE-specific measurement set of transmission points for the UE, out of the multiple transmission points serving the cluster cell, based on the obtained measurements; and instructing the UE to perform and report measurements on UE-specific downlink signals transmitted from the transmission points of the UE-specific measurement set.
