Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and arrangement in a cellular communication system, in particular to methods and arrangements in a user equipment and a network node for reporting cell measurement results. The present invention provides improved methods and arrangements for reporting cell measurements without significantly increasing the complexity in the cell measurement procedure. The user equipment reports the number of transmit antenna ports used for performing cell measurements on each of the neighbouring cell in its measurement report to the network node. The network node receives the number of transmit antenna ports which enables the network to be aware of the actual number of antenna ports that are used for cell measurements.
