Abstract: A method includes, in a mobile communication terminal that is camped on a serving cell, evaluating signals of one or more neighbor cells, and permitting the terminal to switch to a neighbor cell when a signal of the neighbor cell meets a reselection criterion for at least a predefined reselection interval. Acquisition of one or more configuration parameters of the neighbor cell is initiated at least partly in parallel with the reselection interval of the neighbor cell. Following the reselection interval, a switch is made to camp on the neighbor cell using the acquired configuration parameters.

Abstract: A method in a mobile communication terminal includes intercepting a message in which the terminal indicates to a base station a fill level of a buffer holding data that is pending for transmission to the base station. A future processing power, which will be required by processing circuitry in the terminal for transmitting the data to the base station, is predicted based on the intercepted message. An operating point of the processing circuitry is set corresponding to the predicted future processing power, by configuring at least one parameter selected from among a supply voltage and a clock frequency of the processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is operated at the set operating point to process the data pending in the buffer.
