Abstract

Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) to support inter-frequency handover are disclosed herein. The UE may receive, from an Evolved Node-B (eNB), a measurement report configuration message that includes multiple measurement events to be determined at the UE. The UE may transmit a measurement report when a combined measurement event occurs. The combined measurement event may include a combination of the multiple measurement events according to a “logical AND” operator such that the combined measurement event occurs when the multiple measurement events occur. The measurement events may be related to signal measurements performed on one or more signals received at the UE from one or more cells configured for operation in the network.
