Claim:
1. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising: receiving multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) subframes in an MBMS session from a base station; determining a data receipt metric corresponding to a data receipt ratio associated with data received during the MBMS subframes in the MBMS session, wherein a portion of the MBMS subframes coincides with a measurement gap configured for inter-frequency or inter-radio access technology (RAT) measurement, wherein determining the data receipt metric includes: determining a first number of encoding symbols that have been received for a file segment in the MBMS session; determining a second number of encoding symbols that should have been received for the file segment in the MBMS session; determining a third number that corresponds to a total number of encoding symbols to be received for the file segment in the MBMS session; and determining the data receipt ratio based on the first number, the second number, and the third number; determining whether the data receipt metric is in a first relationship with a first threshold; refraining from receiving the data during at least the portion of the MBMS subframes that coincides with the measurement gap based on a determination that the data receipt metric is in the first relationship with the first threshold; and performing the inter-frequency or inter-RAT measurement during the measurement gap in response to the determination that the data receipt metric is in the first relationship with the first threshold.
