Methods and arrangements for measurement based mobility

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to methods and arrangements for performing wireless device assisted handover form a source access node to a target access node. Performed in a wireless device, the disclosure presents a method for performing wireless device assisted handover from a source access node to a target access node in a wireless network. The method comprises performing (S) one or more mobility measurements for corresponding candidate radio links and selecting (S), from the one or more candidate radio links, an initial target link based on the performed one or more mobility measurements. A first radio link measurement report, based on the one or more mobility measurements, identifying the initial target link, is transmitted (S) to the source target node using a first radio link reporting mechanism whereupon communication over the initial target link is initiated (S). A second radio link measurement report for the one or more candidate radio links and based on the same one or more mobility measurements, is transmitted (S) on the initial target link using a second radio link measurement report different from the first radio link reporting mechanism.
