1. A baseband processor of a user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more processors configured to
receive, from a serving base station, network configuration information indicating synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) on a carrier of a target base station;
in response to the network configuration information, cause transmission of first information to the serving base station that indicates that the UE is capable of gapless measurement on the target base station;
when the SSBs of the target base station and SSBs from the serving base station have different numerologies,
cause transmission of second information to the serving base station that indicates, on a per radio frequency range, per frequency band, or per broadcast basis, support for concurrent reception of the SSBs of the target base station and SSBs from the serving base station;
receive SSBs of the target base station and SSBs from the serving base station; and
report measurement results of the SSBs to the serving base station.
