A cell reselection procedure in heterogeneous networks is enhanced based on utilization of per category cell reselection parameters. In one aspect, a serving access point can categorize a set of neighbor access points based on cell-type and/or cell-profile data of a set of neighbor access points. Further, the serving access point can determine cell reselection parameters for the different categories. As an example, offset data (Qoffset) can be determined for the different categories. The per category cell reselection parameters can be transmitted to user equipment coupled to the serving access point to facilitate cell reselection. In one example, the per category cell reselection parameters reduce operational costs associated with processing and transmission of system parameters.
