Abstract: A user equipment UE reports its mobility state in signaling for establishing, re-establishing, or re-configuring a radio connection between the UE and a network access node. In one embodiment the reported mobility state is selected from among normal; medium and high. In another embodiment the reported mobility state informs of a number of cell changes the UE has performed within a predetermined evaluation period. The UE may also include an indication whether a hysteresis period for entering into a normal mobility state is running for the UE. The network configures the UE in dependence on the reported mobility state, such as setting a parameter for measuring or reporting neighbor cells (e.g., suspend a serving cell quality threshold as a condition for measuring/reporting; limit inter-frequency and/or inter-radio access technology reporting; set a shortest measurement, reporting gap; disable an event trigger; and/or set layer 3 filtering of measurement results for faster reporting).

Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus places an indication of a wireless communication system cell measurement in a measurement report message, where the indication comprises a corresponding frequency index, and a first part and a second part of an m-bit value representing a physical layer cell identification in a first and a second field, respectively, and a k-bit value representing a measurement result in the second field corresponding to the index. The apparatus then sends the measurement report message to a network interface.

Abstract: There is provided a method, including obtaining, by a user equipment, information related to the speed of the user equipment in at least one first radio access technology; and applying the obtained information in a second radio access technology upon changing to the second radio access technology, wherein the second radio access technology is different from the present first radio access technology.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided from the context of a mobile terminal and a target base station for creating neighbor measurement reports in accordance with a measure of mobility that takes into account whether a handover is mobility-triggered without consideration of non-mobility-triggered handovers. In this regard, a method is provided that includes receiving information indicating whether a handover is mobility triggered. The method may also determine, with a processor, a measure of mobility at least partially based upon the handovers that are mobility triggered without consideration of non-mobility triggered handovers. The method may also cause neighbor measurement reports to be provided in accordance with the measure of mobility.
