Enhanced UE performance in HetNet poor coverage scenarios

摘要

This disclosure relates to techniques for enabling a user equipment (UE) to determine which cell to attach to in a heterogeneous network (HetNet). The UE may determine, based on the quality of the downlink (DL) channel and/or on the type of traffic between the UE and a current base station, whether to attach to a small cell base station or an overlay macro base station in the cellular network. Particularly, the UE may determine whether to use a received mobility offset during cell reselection in response to a measured quality of the DL channel.
