Abstract
A transceiver (107) operates in a TDMA communication system (100) with a primary server (102) and at least one other potential server (103). The transceiver (107) has defined transmit slots and defined receive slots for communication with the primary server. Mandatory transmit slots are identified from among the defined transmit slots according to a particular specification. The transceiver schedules signal quality measurements for the potential server based at least in part on the particular specification for identifying mandatory transmit slots (400).
