Abstract

Methods and apparatus in a mobile receiver for selecting among methods of estimating a received power of at least one signal. A method includes selecting a first method or a second method of measuring the received power based on a cell timing and a measurement interval. Information is received from a first base station about the measurement interval during which to perform the first method and the second method on a signal transmitted by at least one second base station. The timing of the at least one second base station is determined, and based on the timing of the at least one second base station and the measurement interval, one of the first method and the second method is selected.
