Abstract

An apparatus, method, and computer program product for mobility estimation are provided. One method may include estimating a mobility state of a user equipment, and scaling the estimate of the mobility state according to certain factors. The factors may include, for example, a DRX cycle applied during the period of estimation of the mobility state and the number of cell changes of the user equipment.
