Abstract: A signal measurement method for a mobile communication apparatus supporting multiple transmission interfaces to perform communication transmission in a heterogeneous network environment, system and a recording medium thereof. Changes in the signal strength of an active network transmission interface are employed to adjust signal measurement periods of other non-active network transmission interfaces, thereby reducing the signal measurement frequency of these non-active network transmission interfaces. Moreover, as for the situation that a specific transmission interface periodically reports the signal measurement result to a remote network server, the signal measurement time during the report can also be reduced. By solving the power consumption problem caused by frequently activating the signal measurement of the mobile communication apparatus, the efficacies of saving power and improving the standby time and talk time can be achieved.

Abstract: A method of mobile terminal for handover/switch among different wireless communication networks in a heterogeneous network environment is provided. The presented method can optimize battery life by switching off the radio functionality or signal detector when it is not required, based on the movement information, ex. velocity, of the mobile terminal in the heterogeneous wireless communication network. This method will determine an optimal time to turn off the signal detector for minimizing the power consumption. Furthermore, when the mobile terminal moves continuously but the coverage of the preferred wireless network is relatively small, this method can also avoid redundant and unnecessary handover for keeping the communication quality stable, and reduce the loading of frequent handover in the heterogeneous network.
