Abstract
This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for implementing a robust measurement procedure for neighbor base stations (BSs) that are handoff candidates. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may designate a first 5G New Radio (NR) neighbor BS as a handoff candidate for the UE based on a first signal strength measurement. The UE may configure a measurement time interval to perform one or more additional signal strength measurements prior to expiration of a time to trigger (TTT) time period. The UE may determine the measurement time interval based on a duration of the TTT time period configured by a serving BS and a number of additional signal strength measurements. The UE may transmit a measurement report to the serving BS after performing the last signal strength measurement and prior to expiration of the TTT time period.
