Abstract
The technology applies to a cellular radio network where each cell area is associated with a radio base station in which mobile terminals communicate with at least one of the base stations over a radio interface. The mobile terminals perform mobility-related measurements on downlink signals received from a corresponding neighbor cell during time slots configured for downlink transmission measurement. A configuration node receives input information, and based on that received input information, determines measurement time slot configuration information. The node provides the measurement time slot configuration information to the base stations so that the base stations may signal the measurement time slot configuration information to mobile terminals.
