Abstract
A mobile station (500) comprising: a receiver (590) for receiving signals, including parameter data (OFNLM), of an origination communication system (SI) representing a parameter value of signals of a different, destination communication system (S2); a controller (520) coupled to the receiver for controlling the receiver to change between receiving signals of the origination communication system and receiving signals of the destination communication system; and parameter measuring means (530, 540) for measuring a parameter (MIN_RX_PWR, MIN_ TOT_PILOT) of received signals of the destination communication system, the parameter measuring means being coupled to the controller to provide measured parameter data thereto, and wherein the controller is arranged to compare the measured parameter data with a received parameter value (MIN_RX_PWR, MIN_ TOT_PILOT) and to control the receiver to receive again signals of the origination communication system (SI) depending on the comparison of the measured parameter data and the received parameter value.

Claim
