Abstract:
1. A method, by a user equipment (UE), of wireless communication for inter radio access technology (IRAT) measurement, comprising: comparing a first signal strength of a time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) serving cell with a first threshold, in which the first threshold is a sum of a network indicated threshold and a user equipment (UE) threshold; comparing a second signal strength of a target global system for mobile communications (GSM) cell to a second threshold, in which the second threshold is a difference between the network indicated threshold and the UE threshold; initiating a base station identity code (BSIC) procedure when the first signal strength is below the first threshold and the second signal strength is above the second threshold; and adaptively setting a number of BSIC failure attempts before terminating the BSIC procedure.
