Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to methods and apparatus for selective better system reselection for wireless devices capable of cell reselection. An apparatus for wireless communication is configured to receive a message from a current system, the message including a neighbor list having one or more neighbor systems. The apparatus compares the neighbor list to a local preferred systems list, and determine an existence of a preferred neighbor system in the local preferred systems list. The preferred neighbor system has higher priority than that of the neighbor systems in the neighbor list. The apparatus determines whether to perform Better System Reselect (BSR) for the preferred neighbor system instead of cell reselection based on the determination.
