Reporting monitored parameter information

Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for reporting monitored parameter information. One method includes receiving an indication to monitor parameters in an idle mode. The method includes monitoring the parameters in the idle mode. The method includes transmitting a request to a first base station. The method includes, in response to not receiving a correct response from the first base station: performing a cell reselection resulting in selection of a second base station; and transmitting a failure report to the second base station. The failure report includes information corresponding to the parameters monitored in the idle mode.

         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein, to perform the set of cell measurements in the idle mode, the processor is configured to cause the apparatus to:
 measure, in the idle mode, a respective signal strength associated with each base station of the set of base stations.   
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to cause the apparatus to switch from a connected mode to the idle mode in response to the received configuration. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the connected mode comprises a radio resource control (RRC) connected mode. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the idle mode comprises a radio resource control (RRC) idle mode. 
     
     
         8 . An apparatus comprising:
 a processor; and   a memory coupled to the processor, the processor configured to cause the apparatus to:
 transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a configuration for cell measurement in an idle mode; and 
 receive a report comprising a set of parameters associated with a set of base stations, wherein the set of parameters comprises a respective identity associated with each base station of a set of base stations, a respective location associated with each base station of the set of base stations, or both, wherein the set of parameters are in accordance with the configuration for the cell measurement in the idle mode, and wherein one or more of the set of parameters are indicative of a false base station. 
   
     
     
         9 . A method at a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
 receiving a configuration for cell measurement in an idle mode;   performing a set of cell measurements in the idle mode in response to the received configuration;   logging a set of parameters associated with a set of base stations based at least in part on the set of cell measurements in the idle mode, wherein the set of parameters comprises a respective identity associated with each base station of the set of base stations, a respective location associated with each base station of the set of base stations, or both;   transmitting a report comprising the logged set of parameters associated with the set of base stations during the idle mode, wherein one or more of the logged set of parameters are indicative of a false base station.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein each base station of the set of base stations is associated with a cell of a set of cells. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein performing the set of cell measurements in the idle mode comprises:
 measuring, in the idle mode, a respective signal strength associated with each base station of the set of base stations.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 switching from a connected mode to the idle mode in response to the received configuration.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the connected mode comprises a radio resource control (RRC) connected mode. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the idle mode comprises a radio resource control (RRC) idle mode.
