Abstract

These teachings present a new minimization of drive test MDT mode which is valid when the user equipment UE is in an idle state and in a connected state and across the state transitions. The extended logged MDT configuration according to this mode may be configured for the UE by the network, or autonomously by the UE itself. In some embodiments it is associated with the UE reporting its preference for power optimized configuration indication. Some embodiments have a minimum threshold to assure any MDT report from this mode has a sufficient volume of data or sufficient number of data points logged, and so is well suited for smart phones with always-on applications. The parameters such as logging periodicity can differ between the idle and connected state even for a given extended logged MDT configuration.
