Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for measuring received signal power at a mobile terminal in a cellular communications network in such a manner as to efficiently provide highly accurate received signal power measurements in the presence of strong inter-cell interference. In one embodiment, in order to measure received signal power for a measured cell, a mobile terminal selects weighting parameters for a number of time-frequency samples of a reference signal of the measured cell based, at least in part, on inter-cell interference from one or more synchronized interfering cells and inter-cell interference from one or more non-synchronized interfering cells. The mobile terminal applies the time-frequency samples of the reference signal of the measured cell and the corresponding weighting parameters to corresponding time-frequency samples of a received signal from the measured cell in order to obtain a measurement of the received power for the measured cell.
