Abstract

A user equipment (UE) operates to select and/or re-select among radio cells provided by access nodes of a wireless communication system. The UE measures quality of beams detected from each of the cells. For each of the cells, the UE derives cell quality based on the quality of the beams from the cell. For each of the cells, the UE determines the number of good beams among the beams from the cell based on a cell quality threshold received via system information. The UE ranks the cells in a ranking list relative to each other based on the number of good beams associated with respective ones of the cells and the cell quality. The UE controls, based on the ranking of the cells in the ranking list the number of good beams and the cell quality, selection and/or re-selection of a cell among the cells that is to be used for UE radio communications.
