Patent ID: 7877098

Claim:
A method of determining cell reselection in a mobile communication terminal, comprising: determining a threshold value (T_criterion) in consideration of channel quality, a cell reselection weight value, and a cell reselection reference value; and determining whether to perform cell reselection using the threshold value in consideration of the channel quality, the cell reselection weight value, and the cell reselection reference value in a specific wireless environment, wherein in the specific wireless environment, the cell reselection reference value is larger than the threshold value in consideration of the channel quality, and wherein in the specific wireless environment, cell reselection is performed when the cell reselection reference value of a neighboring cell is larger than a sum of the cell reselection reference value of a serving cell and the cell reselection weight value, and a current serving cell is maintained when the cell reselection reference value of the neighboring cell is equal to or smaller than the sum of the cell reselection reference value of the serving cell and the cell reselection weight value.
