Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus in a mobile receiver in a communication system for selecting one of a plurality of methods of measuring a received power of at least one signal of at least one base station. The apparatus is comprised of a receiver and a processor. The receiver is configured for receiving information carried by a signal from a first base station. The information is about a measurement interval during which to perform a first measuring method or a second measuring method on a signal of at least one second base station. The processor is configured to determine a timing of the signal of the at least one second base station and to select, based on the timing of the signal of the at least one second base station and the measurement interval, one of the first measuring method and the second measuring method. The first measuring method is used when the timing of the signal of the at least one second base station is within the measurement interval. The first measuring method is a measurement method of channel estimation or reference signal measurement based on averaging. The second measuring method is used when the timing of the signal of the at least one second base station is not entirely within the measurement interval. The second measuring method is a measuring method based on a channel response estimate. The channel response estimate is based on a received reference symbol, at least one channel characteristic, and time and frequency positions or received reference symbols.
