Method and apparatus for radio resource management measurement of user equipment in heterogeneous network

摘要

A method and apparatuses for wireless communications are described. The method comprises determining (902), at a first base station (110a...z), a measurement gap (702) associated with a second base station (110a...z) for an inter-frequency or an inter-RAT, radio access technology, radio resource measurement, generating (904), at the first base station (110a...z), resource partitioning information, RPI, with at least one subframe designated for radio resource measurements of the first base station (110a...z) and transmitting (906) subframes from the first base station (110a...z) according to the RPI, wherein the at least one subframe designated for radio resource measurements of the first base station (110a...z) falls within the measurement gap (702) associated with the second base station (110a...z).
