Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, configuration information that indicates one or more first measurement types. Accordingly, the UE may transmit, to the base station, periodically and while the UE is in an idle mode or an inactive state, first measurements based at least in part on the one or more first measurement types indicated in the configuration information. In some aspects, the UE may further transmit, to the base station, second measurements based at least in part on a second measurement type. The first measurement type(s) may be associated with a minimization of drive test (MDT). Similarly, the second measurement type may be associated with an MDT. Numerous other aspects are provided.
