Abstract:
In a radio communication system having a mobile station operable to communicate with a network part of the radio communication system, an improvement of apparatus for the mobile station for reporting to the network part communication indicia associated with the mobile station pursuant to a high-data-rate communication service, said mobile-station apparatus comprising:a communication indicia parameter detector for detecting network-provided communication-indicia parameters sent to the mobile station, the network-provided communication-indicia parameters identifying parameter-types, measured values the network-provided communication-indicia parameters to be subsequently reported to the network part, the parameter-types of the network-provided communication-indicia parameters identifying at least a selected one of a first parameter-type and at least a second parameter-type; a communication indicia measurer coupled to said communication indicia parameter detector, said communication indicia measurer for measuring values of the communication indicia parameters of the at least the selected one of the first and at least second parameter-types, respectively, identified by the network-provided communication-indicia parameters sent to the mobile station and detected by said communication indicia parameter detector; and a communication indicia reporter coupled to said communication indicia measurer, said communication indicia reporter for reporting the values, measured by said communication indicia measurer, of the communication-indicia parameters of the at least the selected one of the first and at least second parameter types to the network part.
