MEASUREMENT CONTROL OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES FOR CELL RANGE EXTENSION

摘要

A method for selecting wireless communication devices for measurement configuration in a wireless communication network comprises a step of obtaining at least one report on signal strength and/or signal quality from a wireless communication device in the wireless communication network. The method further comprises a step of determining whether or not to select the wireless communication device for measurement configuration, where the measurement configuration comprises configuring the wireless communication device to provide measurement reports on received power from serving cells and neighbour cells in the wireless communication network, and where the step of determining is based on the at least one obtained report on signal strength and/or signal quality.
