- Claim: 1-53. (canceled)
- Claim: 54. A method performed by a wireless device for restricting a number of stored Primary Secondary Cells, PSCells, in Mobility History Information, MHI, the method comprising: storing PSCell history information in memory of the wireless device for a maximum number of PSCells across all Primary Cell, PCell, entries, the PSCell history information being part of MHI stored for the wireless device, further comprising storing the PSCell history information corresponding to a PCell as PSCell entries in a nested structure; and in response to the number of PSCells exceeding the maximum number of PSCells, removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information corresponding to an oldest PSCell entry from any of the PCell entries in the nested structure from the memory of the wireless device.
- Claim: 55. The method of claim 54, wherein removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device comprises removing an oldest PSCell entry from the PSCell history information for a current PCell.
- Claim: 56. The method of claim 54, wherein storing PSCell history information in memory of the wireless device comprises the wireless device storing PCell identifier information along with a list of PSCell information.
- Claim: 57. The method of claim 54, wherein storing PSCell history information in memory of the wireless device storing a plurality of first or last bits of a PCell identifier.
- Claim: 58. The method of claim 54, wherein the maximum number of PSCells is at least one of (a) a number pre-agreed between the wireless network and a radio-access network node, (b) a number configurable by a radio-access network node, (c) a number stored by the wireless device, (d) a number per PCell and stored by the wireless device, (e) a number that is dependent on the type of an associated PCell, (f) a number that is dependent on a time since when the wireless device was connected to an associated PCell, and (g) a number that is dependent on an entry level of an associated PCell within the mobility history information.
- Claim: 59. The method of claim 54, further comprising: storing certain information, in a nested PSCell list, the certain information being at least one of: an indication in a stored MHI report that PSCell information has been removed; a total number of visited PSCells that were removed for each PCell in a MHI report; and a total duration while the wireless device was connected to a PSCell for a given PCell in a MHI report.
- Claim: 60. The claim of method 54, wherein the wireless device does not update a total duration if it removes any PSCell corresponding to a PCell.
- Claim: 61. The method of claim 54, wherein removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device comprises removing all PSCell history associated with the oldest PCell entry irrespective of the amount of available new PSCell information.
- Claim: 62. The method of claim 54, wherein removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device comprises removing all stored PSCell entries corresponding to all earlier stored PCells except for a last plurality of PCells if the wireless device needs to store one PSCell entry corresponding to a more recent PCell z.
- Claim: 63. The method of claim 54, wherein removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device comprises removing one or more stored PSCell entries corresponding to one or more earlier stored PCells of a certain PCell type if the wireless device needs to store one PSCell entry corresponding to a more recent PCell z.
- Claim: 64. The method of claim 54, wherein removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device comprises removing all historical stored PSCell history information except for a most recent plurality of PCell entries upon performing a PCell handover and storing the latest PCell information.
- Claim: 65. The method of claim 54, wherein removing at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device comprises removing the oldest PSCell entry corresponding to the current PCell if the wireless device needs to store a new PSCell entry corresponding to the same PCell.
- Claim: 66. A wireless device for restricting a number of stored Primary Secondary Cells, PSCells, in Mobility History Information, MHI, adapted to: store PSCell history information in memory of the wireless device for a maximum number of PSCells across all Primary Cell, PCell, entries, the PSCell history information being part of MHI stored for the wireless device further adapted to store the PSCell history information corresponding to a PCell as PSCell entries in a nested structure; and in response to the number of PSCells exceeding the maximum number of PSCells, remove at least some of the stored PSCell history information corresponding to an oldest PSCell entry from any of the PCell entries in the nested structure from the memory of the wireless device.
- Claim: 67. The wireless device of claim 66, wherein, in order to remove the at least some of the stored PSCell history information from the memory of the wireless device, the wireless device is further adapted to remove an oldest PSCell entry from the PSCell history information for a current PCell.
- Claim: 68. The wireless device of claim 66, wherein the PSCell history information stored in memory of the wireless device comprises PCell identifier information along with a list of PSCell information.
- Claim: 69. The wireless device of claim 66, wherein the PSCell history information stored in memory of the wireless device comprises a plurality of first or last bits of a PCell identifier.
- Claim: 70. The wireless device of claim 66, wherein the maximum number of PSCells is at least one of (a) a number pre-agreed between the wireless network and a radio-access network node, (b) a number configurable by a radio-access network node, (c) a number stored by the wireless device, (d) a number per PCell and stored by the wireless device, (e) a number that is dependent on the type of an associated PCell, (f) a number that is dependent on a time since when the wireless device was connected to an associated PCell, and (g) a number that is dependent on an entry level of an associated PCell within the mobility history information.
- Claim: 71. The wireless device of claim 66, further adapted to: store certain information, in a nested PSCell list, the certain information being at least one of: an indication in a stored MHI report that PSCell information has been removed; a total number of visited PSCells that were removed for each PCell in a MHI report; and a total duration while the wireless device was connected to a PSCell for a given PCell in a MHI report.
- Claim: 72. The wireless device of claim 66, wherein the wireless device does not update a total duration if it removes any PSCell corresponding to a PCell.
- Claim: 73. The wireless device of claim 66, wherein the at least some of the stored PSCell history information removed from the memory of the wireless device comprises: all PSCell history associated with the oldest PCell entry irrespective of the amount of available new PSCell information; or all stored PSCell entries corresponding to all earlier stored PCells except for a last plurality of PCells if the wireless device needs to store one PSCell entry corresponding to a more recent PCell; or one or more stored PSCell entries corresponding to one or more earlier stored PCells of a certain PCell type if the wireless device needs to store one PSCell entry corresponding to a more recent PCell; or all historical stored PSCell history information except for a most recent plurality of PCell entries upon performing a PCell handover and storing the latest PCell information; or the oldest PSCell entry corresponding to the current PCell if the wireless device needs to store a new PSCell entry corresponding to the same PCell.
