NEIGHBOR CELL MEASUREMENT AND REPORTING

WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/029218

A1

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for neighbor cell measurement and reporting. In example embodiments, a method implemented at a terminal device is provided. The method comprises receiving, from a network device, a configuration to perform neighbor cell measurement during an idle mode. The network device provides at least a serving cell and a first neighbor cell. The method further comprises determining, based on the configuration, whether the neighbor cell measurement is to be performed by the terminal device. The method further comprises, in response to determining that the neighbor cell measurement is to be performed by the terminal device, measuring signal quality of the first neighbor cell during the idle mode. In addition, the method further comprises transmitting a result of the neighbor cell measurement to the network device. The result includes a cell identity and the measured signal quality of the first neighbor cell. In this way, the functionality of Self-Organized Network (SON) can be supported in Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) without increasing energy consumption and complexity of IoT devices.
