  • Publication number: 20210211972
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) supports communication over a first (lower) frequency range and a second (higher) frequency range. The UE determines an extent of preference of the second frequency range over the first frequency range, e.g., based on one or more of the following: sensor measurements; physical channel measurements; battery conditions; weather conditions; voice call activity; indoor/outdoor/in-car status; learned relationships between previous location-time conditions and performance on the second frequency range; etc. The UE device may control search activity and/or measurement activity on the second frequency range based on the preference extent, e.g., by controlling rates of repetition of search and/or measurement on the second frequency range, or by adding a measurement bias to a measurement reporting threshold, or by adding a delay to a measurement reporting time for a measurement, or by disabling search and measurement on the second frequency range.
