A mobile terminal is described comprising a detector configured to detect an event which may trigger a change of a measurement gap configuration for the mobile terminal; a determiner configured to determine, upon detecting the event, whether the measurement gap configuration for the mobile terminal after the event is suitable for a measurement to be performed; and a signaling circuit configured to request a measurement gap reconfiguration if the measurement gap configuration is not suitable for the measurement.

Mobile terminals and methods for performing a measurement

A mobile terminal device includes a processing circuit and a receiver circuit. The processing circuit is configured to determine if a multimedia data stream associated with a mobile communication network is received, identify a set of reception timing occasions of the multimedia data stream, and calculate an alternate radio measurement schedule based on the set of reception timing occasions. The receiver circuit is configured to receive the multimedia data stream and perform one or more radio measurements according to the alternate radio measurement schedule if the multimedia data stream is received while the mobile terminal device is in an idle radio connection state, and perform one or more radio measurements according to a default radio measurement schedule if no multimedia data stream is received while the mobile terminal device is in the idle radio connection state.

Mobile terminal devices and methods of performing radio measurements

A method for performing mobile communications may include receiving a first multimedia broadcast or multicast stream from a serving cell; determining whether or not a neighbor cell is capable of providing the first multimedia broadcast or multicast stream to generate a first determination result; and initiating neighbor cell protocol operations with the neighbor cell according to a first set of threshold criteria if the first determination result is negative and initiating neighbor cell protocol operations with the neighbor cell according to a second set of threshold criteria if the first determination result is positive. The neighbor cell protocol operations are cell measurements of the neighbor cell or cell reselection to the neighbor cell.
