1. A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
identifying a number of handovers of the UE occurring within a time period;
detecting a macro cell based at least in part on measuring the macro cell during a plurality of the handovers;
generating a first signal measurement of the macro cell and a second signal measurement of a second cell;
determining to omit reporting of the second signal measurement of the second cell in a measurement report based at least in part on the identifying and the first signal measurement of the macro cell satisfying a signal strength threshold; and
transmitting the measurement report indicating the first signal measurement of the macro cell based at least in part on the determining.
