Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from appropriate sharing of resources amongst multiple nodes. For example, certain wireless communication systems may benefit from using a single measurement gap for master node and secondary node measurements in a multi-radio-access-technology dual connectivity scenario, or similar scenarios. A method can include determining, by a first network node, that a gap pattern is existing in a second network node. The method can also include enquiring, by the first network node to the second network node, whether the gap pattern can be used for a new measurement. The method can further include configuring, by the first network node, a user equipment to perform the new measurement in the gap pattern, based on a response from the second network node to the enquiring.

Abstract: Communication systems may benefit from appropriate measurements of transmitters. For example, certain communication systems using dual connectivity may benefit from network controlled and deployment based increased primary cell measurements. A method can include configuring, by a network element, a user equipment to perform measurements on both a master cell group and a secondary cell group, according to activity in the secondary cell group.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for measurement delivery. In some example embodiments, there is provided a method. The method may include receiving information to configure a user equipment to perform one or more measurements and to configure the user equipment to report, when requested by a network, the one or more measurements; receiving a request from the network to report the one or more measurements configured based on the received information; and reporting, in response to the request from the network, the one or more measurements to the network, without regard to measurement event reporting. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from the appropriate logging of measurements. For example, communication systems employing multimedia broadcast multicast service may benefit from logging multicast-broadcast single-frequency network measurements. A method can include logging, by a user equipment, a multicast-broadcast single-frequency network measurement corresponding to a logging period. The method can also include storing, at the time the multicast-broadcast single-frequency network measurement is made, cell measurement results.

Abstract: An approach is provided for receiving and transmitting data over a wireless network, while minimizing power consumption. A determination is made, as part of a discontinuous communication mechanism defining an on-period for permitting transmission of data over a network, whether a resource allocation has been made to a user equipment for communicating over the network. If the resource allocation has been made, generating a keep-awake message to instruct the user equipment to extend the on-period.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from appropriate representations of communication parameters and information. For example, certain wireless communication systems may benefit from packet number representation for multicast channel block error rate reporting. A method can include determining a number of packets corresponding to a block error rate of a multicast channel. The method can also include encoding the number of packets using an encoding format that includes a plurality of granularities and at least one threshold. The method can further include transmitting the number of packets in a report.

Abstract: The monitoring of control channels, such as the physical downlink control channel, may benefit from the influence of data buffer status information. In certain embodiments, a method includes monitoring a downlink channel (for example, a PDCCH) in active time. The method also includes monitoring an instantaneous status of a data buffer related to a user equipment and/or a base station. The monitoring of the downlink channel is guided by the instantaneous status as presently known.
