A communication device and method operating in a wireless communication system is provided. The communication device includes a memory configured to store frequency history information; and a processor electrically connected to the memory, wherein the processor is configured to measure reception power of each of a plurality of first signals included in a first band, determine a first candidate frequency set according to a strength of each measured reception power, determine a second candidate frequency set updated from the first candidate frequency set based on the frequency history information, and determine whether a cell corresponding to each frequency included in the second candidate frequency set exists.

A method of reducing power consumption is provided. The method includes categorizing a plurality of cells including a serving cell into an identified cell set and a non-identified cell set based on received power of the plurality of cells, measuring received power of the plurality of cells including the serving cell based on a first measurement period during a first time interval, determining whether received power of the serving cell is greater than a predefined threshold or whether a number of cells included in the identified cell set or a configuration of the plurality of cells changes, or if one of the received power of the serving cell is greater than the predefined threshold and if the number of cells included in the identified cell set or the configuration of the plurality of cells does not change, changing the first measurement period to a second measurement period.

Method of reducing consumption of standby current in a mobile terminal

An apparatus and a method for switching a Radio Access Technology (RAT) by a User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes detecting an event indicating that the UE should perform a switching operation from a first RAT to a second RAT different from the first RAT occurs while the UE uses the first RAT determining whether a RAT switching operation criterion is satisfied after detecting that the event occurs and if the RAT switching operation criterion is satisfied, performing the switching operation.
