Patent ID: 8509797

Claim:
A method in a user equipment for handling cell selection in a cellular communication system, the method comprising: entering dedicated mode, while in dedicated mode, receiving from a radio network node a measurement information message indicating at least two frequencies, each of which indicated frequencies is associated with a respective cell implementing a respective radio access technology, while in dedicated mode, performing measurements on the indicated frequencies to obtain a respective measurement value for each one of the indicated frequencies, while in dedicated mode, receiving from the radio network node a selection indicator message comprising a respective priority for each one of the indicated frequencies, while in dedicated mode, obtaining a respective threshold value for each of the respective indicated frequencies, successively evaluating the indicated frequencies in descending priority order until an indicated frequency is determined for which the measurement value obtained for that frequency exceeds its respective threshold value, and when entering idle mode, selecting based on the evaluation the cell with which the determined frequency is associated.
