Strategy of Cell Selection and Reselection

For normal service, the UE has to camp on a suitable cell,tune to that cell's control channel(s) so that the UE can:

Receive system information from the PLMN;Receive registration area information from the PLMN, e.g., locationarea and routing area; andIdentify to which service area as specified by NAS that the servingcell belongs.Receive other AS and NAS Information;Receive paging and notification messages from the PLMN;

Initiate call setup for outgoing calls or other actions from the UE.

Cell Individual Offset

For each cell that is monitored, an offset can be assigned with inbandsignalling. The offset can be either positive or negative. The offset isadded to the measurement quantity before the MS dose evaluate whilean event has occurred.Offset of neighbor cell parameter, CPICH Ec/No, can be set as theoffset which MS pluses it to neighbor cell measurement result, CPICH

Ec/No, before compares it with reporting principle value, Ec/No.Cell individual offsets can be regarded as the tool of moving cell edge.

Time-To-Trigger

If a to-be-evaluated cell meets the reporting range orthreshold of certain event, the condition must be met withina period of time before the reporting of this event to avoidintra-frequency event misreport due to the fluctuation ofradio quality.

Compressed Mode Enabling/Disabling

Among all inter-frequency measurement events,Event 2D and Event 2F only involve measurementof working carrier frequencies, so the compressedmode is not required during measurement andextra overhead will not be brought about to bothUE and RNC. The compressed mode can beenabled and disabled based on the definition of2D/2F.

Event of inter-frequency handover

The same cell can only use one of Event 2A,Event 2B and Event 2C to trigger inter-frequencyhandover. Which of the three events will be usedis based on the inter-frequency handover

recommendation strategy parameterInterHoTactic.

Inter-RAT measurement events

3GPP defies a series of Inter-RAT measurementevents. An UE reports the corresponding eventswhen defined conditions are met.

3A: The currently used UTRAN carrier quality is lowerthan a threshold, and the quality of other radio systemsis higher than a threshold. It is used for decision ofInter-RAT handover.3C: The quality of other radio systems is higher than a

threshold. It can be used for Inter-RAT handoverdecision.

Processing of Inter-RAT Events

In a cell, inter-RAT handover can only be triggeredby 3A or 3C event, which is controlled by Inter-RAT handover tactic RatHoTactic.When only PS service exists, adopt cell

reselection process of PS service handover.When CS service and PS service existsimultaneity, suspend PS service firstly, thenhandover CS service to GSM and handover PSservice to GSM in sequence.


52/64

Inter-RAT Handover

The RNC transmits the 2D ad 2F event configuration to theUE when the service is set up. If the UE reports a 2Devent, that is, the current carrier is in poor signal quality,the UE reports a 2E event after inter-frequencymeasurement is started (that is, the signal quality of themeasured inter-frequency neighboring cell is also poor),the RNC needs to configure and start Inter-RATmeasurement 3A or 3C event to the UE, and then performsthe corresponding decision process for Inter-RAThandover according to the 3A, or 3C event subsequentlyreported by the UE.
