Abstract
A method includes, in a mobile communication terminal that is camped on a serving cell, evaluating signals of one or more neighbor cells, and permitting the terminal to switch to a neighbor cell when a signal of the neighbor cell meets a reselection criterion for at least a predefined reselection interval. Acquisition of one or more configuration parameters of the neighbor cell is initiated at least partly in parallel with the reselection interval of the neighbor cell. Following the reselection interval, a switch is made to camp on the neighbor cell using the acquired configuration parameters.
