Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, at a first base station, first data for determining a first load of a second base station, wherein the first base station and the second base station are neighbor base stations to each other, and wherein the first base station is serving a first user equipment (UE) device; determining, at the first base station based on the first data, the first load of the second base station; determining, at the first base station, that the first load of the second base station is different than a prior load of the second base station, wherein the first base station determined the prior load based on second data received at the first base station for determining the prior load of the second base station; selecting, at the first base station based on the first load of the second base station and in response to determining that the first load of the second base station is different than the prior load of the second base station, a first reporting interval for the first UE device to use to report, to the first base station, measurement data regarding the second base station, wherein the first reporting interval is different than a prior reporting interval selected at the first base station based on the prior load of the second base station; and transmitting wirelessly, from the first base station, the selected first reporting interval.
