Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An approach is provided for scheduling communication resources to minimize the effects of a measurement gap. The timing between a resource allocation grant for a communication link, corresponding data transmission, and associated error control transmissions is delayed to avoid transmitting data to or receiving data from a user equipment during a measurement gap.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A machine-executable method comprising: determining an initiation point and a duration of a measurement gap that permits a user equipment to perform measurements; allocating an uplink resource of a communication link to the user equipment prior to the initiation point of the measurement gap by scheduling an uplink transmission; and determining, at least in part based on whether the uplink resource is allocated within a predetermined period prior to the i…
