Abstract

A communication method and device are described. In the communication method, a quality indicator value associated with the first communication protocol is calculated based on a signal characteristic of first communication protocol. A quality indicator value associated with the first communication protocol is determined based on a signal characteristic of the first communication protocol. Further, a gap time is calculated which represents the time until a next communication gap resulting from a first communication via the first communication protocol and second communication via a second communication protocol. A quality report value can be calculated based on the quality indicator value and a comparison of the gap time and a reporting time threshold value. Further, a quality report can be generated based on the quality report value.
