Abstract
Methods, apparatus and computer program products perform signal quality measurements for signals from a plurality of cells served by an apparatus, and transmit indications of the signal quality measurements to the apparatus. The signal quality measurements may include CQI measurements. Transmitting may include transmitting indications of the signal quality measurements to a source cell of the apparatus. Other methods, apparatus and computer program products perform signal quality measurements for signals from a plurality of cells served by an apparatus, determine, using at least the signal quality measurements, a frequency band to be used by each of the plurality of cells to transmit a command, and transmit an indication of the frequency band to the apparatus. Variants may include receiving over the frequency band the command from each of the plurality of cells.
