Abstract:
1. A method in a wireless communication device, the method comprising: operating on a serving cell of a first network type; receiving a neighbor list; modifying the neighbor list based on a preferred list to generate a modified neighbor list, by: taking cell measurements of cells of a first network type and cells of a second network type based on the modified neighbor list, wherein the first network type is a global system for mobile communication network type, and wherein the second network type is a code division multiple access network type, wherein the method further comprises: sending the cell measurements based on the modified neighbor list to the serving cell, receiving an optimized neighbor list after sending the cell measurements based on the modified neighbor list to the serving cell; and taking cell measurements of cells of a first network type and cells of a second network type based on the optimized neighbor list.
