1. A method of operation of a User Equipment (UE) to perform cell quality derivation in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
obtaining, via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling from a network node, a measurement configuration that includes a list of measurement objects, wherein the list of measurement objects includes a measurement object of a serving cell, the measurement object of the serving cell specifying a Synchronization Signal/Physical Broadcast Channel Block (SSB) frequency;
obtaining a serving cell configuration of the serving cell, the serving cell configuration providing frequency information that specifies an absolute frequency of an SSB to be used for the serving cell, wherein the absolute frequency of the SSB to be used for the serving cell matches the SSB frequency of the measurement object;
obtaining parameters to perform cell quality derivation for the serving cell of the UE from the measurement object, wherein the parameters include a threshold value; and
performing cell quality derivation for the serving cell based on the obtained parameters.
