Abstract

Apparatuses (including user equipment (UE) and modem chips for UE), systems, and methods for calculating more accurate Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurements and/or detecting/eliminating ghost cells from a list of (supposed) neighboring cells are described. In one method, the cross-correlations between adjacent Cell-specific Reference Signals (CRSs) are used to calculate the RSRP and to detect any ghost cells in a list of (supposed) neighboring cells. Any detected ghost cell may be deleted from any searches and measurements by the UE, and may also be reported to the network.
