1. A method comprising:
causing transmission, to a network, of capability information indicating whether a user equipment (UE) is capable of supporting more than one per-frequency range measurement gap configurations in a frequency range, wherein the capability information includes first capability information and second capability information, wherein the first capability information indicates whether the UE is capable of supporting two measurement gap configurations that correspond to two out of three frequency ranges that include the frequency range, and wherein the second capability information indicates whether the UE is capable of supporting three measurement gap configurations that correspond to the three frequency ranges;
processing configuration information received from the network based on the capability information, the configuration information indicating a configuration of a measurement gap for the frequency range;
determining, based on the configuration information, a measurement gap length and a measurement gap repetition period, wherein at least one of the measurement gap length or the measurement gap repetition period is based on frequencies of the frequency range; and
performing, based on the measurement gap length and the measurement gap repetition period, measurements on reference signals sent in the frequency range.
