=> trigger Intra-LTE handover
=> execute ANR
Event A4 - Neighbour becomes better than threshold.
Event A5 - Serving becomes worse than threshold1 and neighbour becomes
better than threshold2.
Inter-RAT measurement events
Event B1 - Inter RAT neighbour becomes better than threshold.
Event B2 - Serving becomes worse than threshold1 and inter RAT neighbour
