Detailed Description

Testing UE measurements in LTE with simulation of 3 eNodeB and 1 UE in piecewise configuration and 240 ms report interval.

This test is to cover a corner case using event A4, which is not covered by LteUeMeasurementsPiecewiseTestCase1 and LteUeMeasurementsPiecewiseTestCase2. In this case, we test that the UE measurements at eNB are arriving 240 ms apart. Please note, the scenario simulated is engineered to specifically test the corner case in which whenever a new neighbour fulfils the entry condition for event A4, the UE RRC calls VarMeasReportListAdd method to include the new cell id in cellsTriggeredList, and then it schedules the SendMeasurementReport for periodic reporting. However, if the UE has already started the periodic reporting, scheduling the SendMeasurementReport method again causes following buggy behaviors:

It generates an intermediate measurement event, which then leads to parallel intermediate measurement reports from a UE to its eNB.
The old EvenId is overwritten by the new EventId stored in VarMeasReportList. This makes us lose control over the old EventId and it is impossible to cancel its events later on.

These buggy behaviors generated an issue reported in https://gitlab.com/nsnam/ns-3-dev/-/issues/224, where a UE try to send measurement reports after the RLF, even though all the measurement events are properly cancelled upon detecting RLF.

The correct behaviour should be that if a UE has already started the periodic reporting, and once a new neighbour fulfils the entry condition, we just need to add its cell id in cellsTriggeredList, without scheduling a new periodic event.
