Abstract
A method of using additional uplink measurements for MDT UL coverage is provided. A base station (eNodeB) establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a user equipment (UE) in a mobile communication network. The eNodeB and the UE are configured for Minimization of Drive Test (MDT). The eNodeB receives a Power Headroom Report (PRH) corresponds to a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) from the UE, and forwards the PHR to an MDT server. The eNodeB performs uplink measurement of a Demodulation Reference Signal (DM-RS) allocated in the PUSCH. The uplink measurement also involves measuring an uplink Received Interference Power (RIP) associated with the PUSCH. The eNodeB then reports uplink measurement results to the MDT server. The MDT server is able to determine uplink coverage based on the PHR and the uplink measurement results.
