Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods for continuous inter-frequency measurement reconfigurations in a DC-HSUPA User Equipment (UE). In one aspect, the system may configure the UE to perform intra-frequency measurements on a frequency f1 and inter-frequency measurements on a frequency f2 in a dual carrier (DC) downlink (DL) mode and a single carrier (SC) uplink (UL) mode. The system may then reconfigure the UE to operate in a DC UL mode and continuing to perform inter-frequency measurements on the frequency f2 in the DC UL mode. The system may then reconfigure the UE to operate in the SC UL mode and continuing to perform inter-frequency measurements on frequency f2 in the SC UL mode.
