Abstract
A method for operator controlled mobility for user equipment is described. The method includes assigning a set of radio access technologies from a plurality of radio access technologies to a user equipment. The set of radio access technologies is assigned based at least in part on a subscribed level of service corresponding to the user equipment. An indication of the assigned set of radio access technologies is signaled to the user equipment. The user equipment generates a measurement report for a subset of a neighbor cell list. The subset represents radio access technologies in the neighbor cell list that are also in the set of assigned radio access technologies. The measurement report is transmitted to the base station. Apparatus are also described.
