Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are provided that may address problems to enabling a user equipment (UE) in connected mode on a normal bandwidth cell to make inter-frequency measurements on another normal bandwidth cell and a flexible bandwidth cell. Some embodiment utilize a set of compressed mode gap configurations for measuring both normal bandwidth and flexible bandwidth inter-frequency cells with the following modification for flexible bandwidth cells: reducing the coherent length used by the UE; using the same cell search parameters at the UE but modifying the compressed mode gap parameters to accommodate both normal bandwidth and flexible bandwidth cell search; and/or maintaining the compressed mode gap parameters but reducing the search window size during cell search coherent accumulation. Some embodiments may configure separate compressed mode measurements configuration for normal bandwidth and flexible bandwidth measurements.
