Abstract:
A method for performing cell reselection by a wireless communication device is described. The method includes determining that the wireless communication device should perform reselection to a target cell from a serving cell. The method also includes determining that the wireless communication device does not have paging channel information of the target cell. The method further includes prioritizing reading paging channel information from a broadcast channel of the target cell over reading a paging channel of the serving cell.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to receive and transmit data during one or more frames in a multiframe. Power measurements for a neighboring cell can be scheduled during one or more frames not intended for power measurements. In some examples, the one or more frames not intended for power measurements can include an Idle frame and/or a Packet Timing Advance Control Channel (PTCCH) frame in a 52-frame multiframe structure, as well as an Idle frame and/or a Slow Associated Control Channel (SACCH) frame in a 26-frame multiframe structure. Some access terminals may be adapted for facilitating multiple subscriptions, and may operate at least substantially simultaneously in a Connected mode subscription and an Idle mode subscription. In such instances, a neighboring cell for which power measurements are performed may be associated with the Connected mode subscription and/or the Idle mode subscription. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
