MR Processing Example
If neighbour_journal flag
is set to 0, the last
recieved RxLev for the
unreported neighbour is
used and a negative HO
may be triggered

Neighbor_journal = 1
Neighbor averaging is im mediate, initially
all neighbor information is padded with
value
-110dBm.
Neighbor_journal = 1
For averaging, use -110dB m as value of
neighbor, for missing neighbor report
If disuse_count reaches value defined by
disuse_cnt_hreqave then delete previous
neighbor measurement reports and reset
averaging mechanism
disuse_count_hreqave = 1
i.e neighbor ceases to be valid after
disuse_count reches value defined in
surround_cell hreqave
