2 Overview
2.1 Function Introduction
This article introduces the strategies of PLMN selection, cell selection/reselection,
location area update, routing area update, URA update and cell update, as well as the
random access process of PRACH.
2.1.1 PLMN Selection
The UE will select a PLMN when it registers at power-on or re-registers in „out of service‟
conditions. In addition, the UE can make periodic PLMN selection.
2.1.2 Cell Selection and Reselection
The UE will select an initial cell at power-on or in „out of service‟ conditions.
When the UE moves in the IDLE mode, in state URA_PCH or CELL_FACH, it needs to
change the cell that it camps on through the cell reselection strategy.

2.1.3 Location Area Update
The location area (LA) refers to a range where the mobile station can move freely
without update of VLR. The location area identity (LAI) is made up of MCC+MNC+LAC.
LAC is the location area code. For the CS domain service, the CN uses the LA to
identify the UE (in the RRC-IDLE mode, the network uses a CN-related identity to
identify the UE). One LA may cover one or more cells. When several CNs share a VLR,
the LA may cover several CNs. One CN area may include one or more LAs. That is, the
CN may include an MSC area, and an MSC area may also include the LA.
If the LA that the UE camps on changes when the UE is moving, the CN should be
notified of the change through LA update.
In addition, the UE can update the LA periodically.
2.1.4 Routing Area Update
The routing area (RA) is defined as a range where the mobile station can move freely
without update of SGSN. An RA is made up of one or more cells. It is used to indicate
the location information of the mobile station in the SGSN when the mobile station is in
idle state. The RAs are classified by the mobile data traffic distribution, traffic volume
and the processing capability of the SGSN as well. The routing area identity
(RAI)=MCC+MNC+LAC+RAC, where RAC is the routing area code that uniquely
identifies an RA inside a LA. For the PS domain service, the CN uses the RA to identify
the UE (in the RRC-IDLE mode, the network uses the CN-related identity related with
the CN to identify the UE). The relation between LA and RA as defined for the GSM
network is still applicable: RA=LA, or RA is always included in the LA (a subset of LA). In
addition, the RA may cover several RNC areas but not several SGSN areas, that is, one
RA can be controlled by only one CN service node.
If the LA or RA that the UE camps on changes when the UE is moving, the CN should
be notified of the change through RA update.
In addition, the UE can update the RA periodically.
2.1.5 URA Update
The URA is a combination of a group of cells and at the same time, a cell may belong to
several URAs. The URA is visible only inside the UTRAN (including UE). The area
update inside the UTRAN is a radio network process and its structure is not visible from
outside the UTRAN. The URA stands no fixed relation with the LA and is not related with
the RA either.
In state URA_PCH, the procedure URA Update is used to keep RAN informed about the
UEs location on a URA level.

The UE in state RA_PCH will trigger the URA update with the reason of “change of
URA” in the following cases:
If the cell that the UE camps on is in a different URA area from that of the original
cell that the UE camps on.
The list of URA ID in SIB2 is empty.
The SIB2 information is not received.
Besides, the UE in state URA_PCH will trigger the periodic URA update with the reasonof “periodic URA update ” if the preceding LA update condition is not satisfied but the
following conditions are satisfied.
The timer T305 in the IE “UE Timers and constants in connected mode" set to any
other value than " is set to non “infinity” and T305 expires.
If the UE does not support HS-DSCH reception but receives the IE "HS-DSCH
paging system information", the IE is not saved currently, and also the 12 -bit MSBs
(high 12 bits) of U_RNTI in "SRNC does not equal to the 12-bit MSBs of "Cell
identity" in SIB3.
2.1.6 Cell Update
The Cell update means that the UE notifies the RAN of the UE location on a cell level.
The UE will trigger the cell update in the following cases:
Reselection of cell in state CELL_FACH
Radio link failure in state CELL_DCH
T305 periodic cell update.
In state CELL_FACH, the UE returns from the uncovered area to the covered area
and performs periodic cell update.
In state URA_PCH, the UE transmits data on uplink
In state URA_PCH, paging is responded.
In state URA_PCH/CELL_FACH, MBMS p-t-p RB request is sent.
The UE is in paging URA_PCH state on the network side (can be originated by the
UTRAN or CN)
The UE in state CELL_FACH/CELL_DCH detects the RLC unrecoverable error
of the AM RLC entity.

2.1.7 Random Access Process of PRACH
PRACH is the access channel for the UE to originate a call. It includes two parts: the
physical layer random access process and MAC layer random access process.
3 Technical Description
Figure 3-1 shows the flow that the UE registers upon switch-on or re-registers after
leaving connected mode. Processes involved are: PLMN selection, cell selection and
reselection, LA registration and update and RA registration and update.
Figure 3-1 UE Registers upon Switch-on or Re-registers after Leaving ConnectedMode
In addition, the UE supports periodic LA and RA update to notify the network of the real-
time camping information. In state URA_PCH/CELL_FACH, the UE triggers URA/CELL
update for a service reason. In cases of service setup, the paging process and PRACH
random access process are needed. The processes are introduced in this chapter.
3.1 Strategy of PLMN Selection
The UE maintains a list of allowed PLMN types (SIM/USIM information). The allowed
PLMN type can be GSM-MAP only, ANSI-41 only or both. During PLMN selection and
reselection, based on the list of allowed PLMN types and a list of PLMN identities in
priority order, the particular PLMN may be selected either automatically or manually.
Each PLMN in the list of PLMN identities can be identified by either “PLMN identity” (GSM-MAP) or “SID” (ANSI-41). In the system information on the broadcast channel, the
8/10/2019 Idle Mode - ZTE_ok
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/idle-mode-zteok 11/116
Idle Mode and Common Channel Behavior Feature Guide

UE can receive several “PLMN identities”: a “PLMN identity” (GSM-MAP) or a “SID” or a
'PLMN identity ' (GSM-MAP) and a 'SID', in a given cell.
The result of the PLMN selection is an identifier of the selected PLMN, the choice being
based on the allowed PLMN types, UE capability or other factors.
3.1.1 Support for PLMN Selection
The UE will select a PLMN when it registers at power-on or re-registers after leavingconnected mode. In addition, the UE can make periodic PLMN selection.
The PLMN selection is originated at a NAS. On request of the NAS, the AS searches for
available PLMN and reports the result to the NAS. The NAS based on the information
reported by the AS and the allowed PLMN information in SIM/USIM determines which
PLMN will be selected finally.
The UE scans all RF channels in the UTRA/GSM bands according to its capabilities to
find available PLMNs. On each carrier, the UE shall search for the strongest cell and
read its system information, in order to find out which PLMN the cell belongs to. If the
UE can read one or several PLMN identities in the strongest cell, each found PLMN will
be reported to the NAS as a high quality PLMN, provided that the following high quality
criterion is fulfilled.
1 For an FDD cell, the measured primary CPICH RSCP value is greater than or equal
to -95 dBm.
2 For an TDD cell,the measured primary CCPCH RSCP value is greater than or equal
to -84dBm.
Found PLMNs that do not satisfy the high quality criterion, but for which the UE has
been able to read the PLMN identities are reported to the NAS as other PLMNs in order
of decreasing CPICH RSCP for UTRA FDD cells, or in order of decreasing P-CCPCH
RSCP for UTRA TDD cells.
The search for PLMNs on the carriers may be stopped on request of the NAS. The UE
may optimize this search by using stored information of carrier frequencies and
optionally also information on cell parameters, e.g. scrambling codes, from previously
received measurement control information elements.
Once the UE has selected a PLMN, the cell selection procedure will be performed in
order to select a suitable cell of that PLMN to camp on.
3.1.2 PLMN Selection at Switch-on
Whenever a UE is switched on or re-registers after leaving connected mode, it attempts
to camp on the last registered PLMN or equivalent PLMN, if available. To speed up the
PLMN selection procedure, the UE first tries the stored information cell selection

procedure (refer to 3.2.2.2 “Stored Information cell selection“), and read system
information of corresponding cell to obtain the PLMN ID (PLMN ID comprises MCC and
MNC). Then the UE decides whether the chosen cell is acceptable or whether at least
one acceptable cell belonging to that PLMN exists. If the decision is that the PLMN is
available, the UE attempts registration on the PLMN. If the last registered PLMN is
unavailable, the process of PLMN registration with stored information is finished and
automatic or manual PLMN selection will be attempted.
If there is no registered PLMN stored in the USIM, the UE selects and attempts
registration on other PLMNs using either the Automatic mode or the Manual mode.
3.1.3 Automatic PLMN Selection Mode
The Automatic PLMN selection mode is described in Figure 2 In Automatic mode, if no
last registered PLMN exists or is available, the UE will select a PLMN that is available
and allowed, in the following order:
1 Home PLMN (HPLMN), if not previously selected, according to the Radio Access
Technologies (RATs) supported by the UE.
2 Each PLMN in the user-controlled PLMNs list in the USIM, if present, in order of
priority, according to the RATs supported by the UE.
3 Each PLMN in the operator -controlled PLMNs list in the USIM, in order of priority,
according to the RATs supported by the UE.
4 Other PLMNs, according to the high -quality criterion, in random order.
5 Other PLMNs that do not fulfill high-quality criterion, in order of decreasing signal
strength (SS).
PLMNs are considered high quality if the Received Signal Strength Code Power (RSCP)
on the PCPICH fulfills the high-quality criterion (for FDD, the PCPICH RSCP level is
greater than or equal to –95 dBm and for GSM, the signal level is above -85 dBm).
A PLMN with at least one acceptable cell is considered available. If that PLMN is
allowed, the UE tries to register on it. If registration is successful, the UE displays theselected PLMN.
When the UE cannot register on any PLMN in the user and operator lists, it attempts to
register on other PLMNs according to the high -quality criterion.
If the UE cannot register on any PLMN, it selects an available PLMN and enters a
limited service state. If it does not find an available PLMN, the UE enters the non-service
state, and waits until a new PLMN is available and allowed.

Figure 3-2 PLMN Selection-Automatic Mode
3.1.4 Manual PLMN Selection Mode
The Manual mode allows the user to select a PLMN among those indicated by the UE.
The UE displays all PLMNs that it finds by scanning all frequency carriers. The UE
displays those PLMNs that are allowed as well as those that are not allowed. The user
makes a manual selection, according to the available access technology for the chosen
PLMN, and the UE attempts registration on this PLMN, ignoring the contents of the
forbidden Location Area Identities (LAIs) and PLMN lists. If the user selects an available
PLMN in the forbidden PLMN list, the UE attempts to register and may receive a positive
acknowledgement from the CN. In this case, the PLMN is removed from the forbidden
list.
If the user does not select a PLMN, the selected PLMN is the one that was selected
before the PLMN selection procedure started. If this PLMN is no longer available, the UE
attempts to camp on an acceptable cell at any PLMN and enters the limited service state.
The UE remains in that state until it is switched off or the user makes a manual PLMN
reselection.
3.1.5 Roaming
Roaming is a service through which a UE is able to obtain services from another PLMN
(Visited PLMN) than the HPLMN. The behavior that the UE must follow is specified by
8/10/2019 Idle Mode - ZTE_ok
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/idle-mode-zteok 14/116

agreements among the network operators. A UE in Automatic mode, having selected
and registered on a Visited PLMN (VPLMN), periodically attempts to return to its HPLMN.
The time interval between consecutive attempts is stored in the USIM and is managed
by the network operator using a timer(The timer may have a value of between 6
minutes and 8 hours, with a step size of 6 minutes ). In the absence of a fixed
value, a default value of 30 minutes is used by the UE.
3.2 Strategy of Cell Selection and Reselection
Different types of measurements are used in different RATs and modes for the cell
selection and reselection.
The NAS can control the RAT(s) in which the cell selection should be performed, for
instance by indicating RAT(s) associated with the selected PLMN, and by maintaining a
list of forbidden registration area(s) and a list of NAS-specified service area in priority
order. The UE will select a suitable cell and the radio access mode based on
measurements and cell selection criteria.
In order to speed up the cell selection process, stored information for several RATs maybe available in the UE.
When camped on a cell, the UE will regularly search for a better cell according to the cell
reselection criteria. If a better cell is found, that cell is selected. The change of cell may
imply a change of RAT (that is, cell reselection between different systems).
For normal service, the UE has to camp on a suitable cell, tune to that cell's controlchannel(s) so that the UE can:
Receive system information from the PLMN;
Receive registration area information from the PLMN, e.g., location area and
routing area; and
Identify to which service area as specified by NAS that the serving cell belongs.
Receive other AS and NAS Information;
Receive paging and notification messages from the PLMN; and
Initiate call setup for outgoing calls or other actions from the UE.

3.2.1.1 Cell selection process overview
Whenever a PLMN has been selected by NAS, the UE will attempt to find a suitable cell
to camp on. The NAS may control the cell selection by:
Providing information on RAT(s) associated with the selected PLMN;
8/10/2019 Idle Mode - ZTE_ok
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/idle-mode-zteok 16/116
ZTE UMTS Idle Mode and Common Channel Behavior Feature Guide

Maintaining lists of forbidden registration areas;
Providing a list of equivalent PLMNs.
One or several RATs may be associated with the selected PLMN. It depends on the UE
capability and PLMN plan.
The AS will attempt to find a suitable cell to camp on as specified in Section 3.2.2.
If a suitable cell is found, the UE will select this cell to camp on, and report this event to
NAS so that the necessary NAS registration procedures can be performed. When the
registration is successful, the UE enters in state Camped normally in order to obtain
normal service.
If the UE is unable to find any suitable cell of selected PLMN the UE will enter the Any
cell selection state and perform action of 3.2.6 “ Any Cell Selection State“.
3.2.1.2 Camped normally state overview
In this state, the UE obtains normal service and performs the tasks specified in 3.2.3.
If after a Cell reselection evaluation process a better cell is found, the Cell reselection
procedure is performed. If no suitable cell is found, the UE will enter the state Any cell
selection.
When UE leaves idle mode in order to enter the state Connected mode, the UE shallattempt to access the current serving cell. If the access attempt to the serving cell fails,
the UE will use the Cell reselection evaluation procedure.
3.2.1.3 Connected mode state overview
When returning to idle mode, the UE shall use the procedure Cell selection when leaving
connected mode in order to find a suitable cell to camp on and enter state Camped
normally . If a suitable cell is found, then the UE reports this event to NAS to be capable
to perform necessary NAS registration procedures. If no suitable cell is found, the Stored
information cell selection procedure will be used by the UE.
If no suitable cell is found in cell reselection evaluation process, the UE enters the state
Any cell selection.
3.2.1.4 Any cell selection state overview
The state Any cell selection is also entered if the NAS indicates that a location
registration is rejected or there is no SIM/USIM in the UE. In this state the UE will
behave as specified in Section 3.2.6 “ Any Cell Selection State“FF

If an acceptable cell is found, the UE will inform the NAS and camp on this cell and
obtain limited service, state Camped on any cell .
3.2.1.5 Camped on any cell state overview
In this state the UE obtains limited service. The UE will regularly attempt to find a
suitable cell, trying all RATs that are supported by the UE. If a suitable cell is found, this
causes an exit to number 2 in Figure 3, to perform the procedure as specified in Section
3.2.1.2 “Camped normally state overview“.
NOTE: The 'PLMN selection and reselection' process may select a new PLMN at any
time in idle mode, which in Figure 3 causes an exit to number 1, perform initial cell
selection procedure (refer to Section 3.2.1.1 “Cell selection process overview“).
3.2.2 Cell Selection Process
The UE will use one of the following two search procedures:
3.2.2.1 Initial cell selection
This procedure requires no prior knowledge of which RF channels are UTRA carriers.
The UE will scan all RF channels in the UTRA/GSM bands to find a suitable cell in the
chosen PLMN. On each carrier, the UE need only search for the strongest cell. Once a
suitable cell is found this cell shall be selected.
3.2.2.2 Stored Information cell selection
This procedure requires stored information of carrier frequencies and optionally also
information on cell parameters, e.g. scrambling codes, from previously received
measurement control information elements. Once the UE has found a suitable cell the
UE shall select it. If no suitable cell is found the Initial cell selection procedure will be
started.
3.2.2.3 Cell selection criteria
The cell selection criterion S is fulfilled when:
for FDD cells: Srxlev > 0 AND Squal > 0
for TDD cells: Srxlev > 0

P_MAX: Maximum RF output power of the UE (dBm)
3.2.3 Camped Normally State
When camped normally, the UE will perform the following tasks:
Select and monitor the indicated PICH and PCH of the cell according to information
sent in system information;
Monitor relevant system information.
Perform necessary measurements for the cell reselection evaluation procedure.
Execute the cell reselection evaluation process.
3.2.4 Rules of Cell Reselection Measurement
Different rules apply for cell reselection measurement when HCS is used and when HCS
is not used.
3.2.4.1 Measurement rules for cell re-selection when HCS is not used
When the serving cell does not use HCS (UseOfHCS(utranCell) ), the measurement
rules for cell reselection are:
In the following rules, the UE uses Squal for FDD cells and Srxlev for TDD cells for Sx:
1 If Sx > SIntraSearch, UE may choose to not perform intra-frequency measurements.
If Sx <= Sintrasearch, UE performs intra-frequency measurements.
If Sintrasearch, is not sent, UE performs intra-frequency measurements. Whether
to broadcast Sintrasearch or not is controlled by SintrasearchPre.
2 The UE may choose to not perform inter-frequency measurements when the
following condit ions are satisfied:
MBMS preferred frequency layer is not configured (FreqPLInd ), or MBMS
preferred frequency layer is configured but the current serving cell belongs to
the MBMS preferred frequency layer.
Sx> Sintersearch
If SsearchHCS is broadcast and Srxlev > SsearchHCS

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/idle-mode-zteok 20/116
ZTE UMTS Idle Mode and Common Channel Behavior Feature Guide
14 © 2010 ZTE Corporation. All rights reserved. ZTE Confidential Proprietary
The UE needs to perform inter-frequency measurements at least for the MBMS
preferred frequency layer when the following conditions are satisfied:
MBMS preferred frequency layer is configured and the current serving cell
does not belong to the MBMS preferred frequency layer.
Sx > Sintersearch
If SsearchHCS is broadcast and Srxlev > SsearchHCS.
The UE needs to perform inter-frequency measurements when any one of the
following conditions is satisfied:
Sx <= Sintersearch
IF SsearchHCS is broadcast and Srxlev <= SsearchHCS.
If SinterSearch is not broadcast, the UE performs inter-frequency measurement.
Whether to broadcast SinterSearch or not is controlled by SInterSearchPre.
3 If Sx > SSearchRat , UE does not need to measure quality of inter-RAT neighbor
cells.
If Sx <= SSearchRat, the UE performs inter-RAT cell quality measurement.
If SsearchRat is not broadcast, the UE performs inter -RAT neighbor cell
quality measurement. Whether to broadcast SsearchRat or not is controlled byOtherRATInfoPre.
If HCS is not used and the UE receives SLimitRat, the UE will ignore the
parameter.
3.2.4.2 High mobility state when HCS is not used
In non-HCS environment, if the parameters NoHcsTCrMax , NoHcsNCr and
NoHcsTCrMaxHyst are sent on the system information broadcast, it is necessary to start
the UE high mobility state detection mechanism so that the cell reselection criteriadecision can be made with the reselection timer multiplied by the scaling factor or not.
If in non-HCS environment the number of cell reselections during time period
NoHcsT CR M ax exceeds NoHcsNC r , or if the network (via RRC release, RB re-
configuration) has ordered the UE to consider itself to be in high-mobility state, then
high-mobility state is triggered.
When the number of cell reselections during time period NoHcsT CR M ax no longer
exceeds NoHcsNC r , the UE will:
Continue in high-mobility state.

If the number of cell reselect ions during time period NoHcsT CR Hyst does not
exceed NoHcsNC r and also the network does not order the UE to stay in high-
mobility state, then the UE exits high-mobility state.
3.2.4.3 Measurement rules for cell re-selection when HCS is used
When the serving cell uses HCS (UseOfHCS ( utranCell) ), the measurement rules of cell
reselection are:
IF an MBMS PL (preferred layer) is used then,
If the UE is in HCS low mobility state, for serving cell and neighbour cells belonging
to the MBMS PL set the HCS priority = HcsPrio + HcsOffMbms .
If the UE is in HCS high mobility state, for serving cell and neighbour cellsbelonging to the MBMS PL set the HCS priority = HcsPrio.
For serving cell and neighbour cells not belonging to the MBMS PL, set the HCS
priority = HcsPrio
IF an MBMS PL is not used, then HCS priority = HcsPrio
Where: HcsPrio is the parameters configured by cells. The HcsPrio of the current RNC
cell takes the value of HcsPrio (utranCell). The HcsPrio of the neighbor RNC cell takes
the value of HcsPrio (externalUtranCell). The HcsPrio of the GSM cell takes the value of
(externalGsmCell).
In the following rules, the UE uses Squal for FDD cells and Srxlev for TDD cells for Sx:
1 For intra-frequency and inter-frequency measurement rules for UEs not in high-
mobility
IF (Srxlev <= SsearchHCS ) or (if FDD and Sx <= Sintersearch) THEN
<UE measure on all intra-frequency and inter-frequency cells.>
ELSE
IF (Sx > Sintrasearch) THEN
< UE measure on all intra-frequency and inter-frequency cells, which have
higher HCS priority level than the serving cell. >
ELSE
<UE measure on all intra-frequency and inter-frequency cells, which have
equal or higher HCS priority level than the serving cell >

ENDIF
IF Sintrasearch is not sent for the serving cell, THEN
<UE measure on all intra-frequency cells. Fast-moving UEs may also use this
rule. UE measure on all inter-frequency cells, which have higher HCS priority level
than the serving cell unless measurement rules for fast-moving UEs are triggered.>
ENDIF
ENDIF
Whether to broadcast Sintrasearch or not is controlled by SintraSearchPre.
If HCS(UseOfHCS (utranCell)) is used and if SsearchHCS or Sintersearch (FDD) is
not sent for the serving cell, UE will measure on all intra-frequency and inter-frequency cells. Whether to broadcast SsearchHCS or not is controlled by
SSearchHCSPre. Whether to broadcast SinterSearch or not is controlled by
SInterSearchPre.
2 For intra-frequency and inter-frequency measurement rules for fast-moving UEs:
This measurement rule applies when the HCS is used and the UE is in fast-moving
state and also the UE receives the broadcast message of NoHcsTCrMax ,
NoHcsNCr and NoHcsTCrMaxHyst .
If the number of cell reselections during time period TCrMax exceeds NCr , or if thenetwork (via signaling of RRC release, RB re-configuration) has ordered the UE to
consider itself in high mobility state, the UE is triggered to enter fast-moving state.
In this high-mobility state, UE will
IF(Srxlevs <= SsearchHCS) or (if FDD and Sx <= Sintersearch) or SsearchHCS or
Sintersearch (FDD) are not sent, THEN
<UE measure on all intra-frequency and inter-frequency cells.>
ELSE
<UE measure intra-frequency and inter-frequency neighbour cells, which have
equal or lower HCS priority than serving cell. >
ENDIF
When the number of cell reselections during time period TCRmax no longer
exceeds NCr , the UE will:
UE continues in high-mobility state.

If the number of cell reselections during time period TCrmaxHyst does not
exceed NCr and also the network does not order the UE to stay in high-
mobility state, then the UE exits high-mobility state.
When serving cell belongs to a hierarchical cell structure, the UE will follow these rules
for Inter-RAT measurements:
The UE uses Squal for FDD cells and Srxlev for TDD cells for Sx in the following rules.
3 Inter-system threshold-based measurement rules for UEs not in high-mobility
IF (Srxlevs <= SHCSRat ) or (if FDD and Squal <= SSearchRat ) THEN
<UE measure on all neighbouring cells of other RAT >
ELSE
IF (Sx > SLimitRat ) THEN
<UE may choose not to perform inter-RAT measurement>
ELSE
< UE measure on all neighbouring cells between systems, which have equal
or higher HCS priority level than the serving cell. >
ENDIF
ENDIF
If HCS is used and i f SHCSRat is not sent for the serving cell, the UE will measure
on all inter-RAT cells. Whether to broadcast SHCSRat or not is controlled by
SHCSRatPre.
4 Inter-system measurement rules for fast-moving UEs
If the number of cell reselections during time period TCrMax exceeds NCr , or if the
network (via signaling of RRC release, RB re-configuration) has ordered the UE to
consider itself in high mobility state, the UE is triggered to enter fast-moving state.
In this high-mobility state, UE will
IF (Srxlev <= SHCSRat ) or (if FDD and Squal <= SSearchRat ), or SHCSRat or
SsearchRat are not sent, THEN

- If SrxlevServ ingCell<=S prioritysearch1 or SqualServingCell<=S prioritysearch2 the UE shall perform
measurements of inter-RAT layers of lower priority.
- The UE shall perform measurements according to subclause 3.2.4.1 for inter-RAT
layers for which the UE has no absolute priority. For all inter-RAT layers belonging
to one RAT, either the rules above or the rules in subclause 3.2.4.1 or 3.2.4.3 shall
apply.
The absolute priority of current serving cell: ServCelPriority ;
The absolute priority of inter-frequency layers in UTRAN:
UtranPriority[MAX_NUM_UTRAN_FREQ] ;
The absolute priority of inter-RAT layers in EUTRAN:
EutranPriority[MAX_NUM_UTRAN_FREQ] ;
The absolute priority of inter-RAT layers in GERAN:
GeranPriority[MAX_NUM_GERAN_CELL_GROUP] .
3.2.4.5 Highest ranked cells with cell reservations, access restrictions or
unsuitable
Rank the cells according to cell reselection ranking criteria. The UE will detect whether
the highest ranked cells are with cell reservations, access restrictions or in other state
unsuitable for camping. If yes, the cells will be excluded from the candidate list for cell
reselection (This limitation is judged again when the highest ranked cell changes.).
If the highest ranked cell is an intra-frequency or inter-frequency cell which is not
suitable due to being part of the "list of forbidden LAs " or belonging to a PLMN which is
not indicated as being equivalent to the registered PLMN, the UE will not consider this
cell and other cells on the same frequency, as candidates for reselection within 300s. If
the UE has to perform an any cell selection procedure any limitation will be removed.
If the highest ranked cell is an inter-RAT cell which is not suitable due to being part of
the "list of forbidden LAs " or belonging to a PLMN which is not indicated as being
equivalent to the registered PLMN, the UE will not consider this cell as a candidate for
reselection within 300s. If the UE has to perform an any cell selection procedure any
limitation will be removed.
3.2.4.6 Rules of Cell Reselection Measurement for UE in CELL_FACH State
For UE in CELL_FACH state
If parameter “UE Inter-frequency FDD Measurement Indicator (FDDInterFMeasInd )” is
set to “False”, UE shall neither perform measurements nor evaluate cell re-
selection criteria on inter-frequency FDD cells. else, UE shall perform inter-
frequency measurement according to the rules in”3.2.4.1”,”3.2.4.2”,”3.2.4.3”.

If parameter “ UE Inter-RAT Measurement Indicator(InterRatMIndPre)” is set
to “False”, UE shall not perform Inter-RAT Measurement. Else, UE shall
perform Inter-RAT measurement according to the rules
in”3.2.4.1”,”3.2.4.2”, ”3.2.4.3”.
If parameter “UE Inter-frequency FDD Measurement Indicator (FDDInterFMeasInd )” or
“UE Inter-RAT Measurement Indicator(InterRatMIndPre)” is set to “True”, UE shall
perform Inter-frequency or Inter-RAT Measurement only in FACH measurement
occasion, other occasion shall be used to transmit user data. The FACH measurement
occasion is decided by parameter “FACH Measurement Occasion Cycle Length
Coefficient(FachMeasK )” which is described in 3gpp 25.331 “FACH measurement
occasion info”.
3.2.4.7 Cell reselection criteria
The following cell re-selection criteria are used for intra-frequency cells, inter-frequency
cells if no absolute priority information for any inter-frequency layer is available to the UE,
and inter-RAT cellsif no absolute priority information for any inter-RAT layer is available
to the UE for that RAT. For inter-frequency and inter-RAT layers in a RAT for which
absolute priorities are defined, then the cell reselection criteria in subclause 3.2.4.8 shall
apply.
If the serving cell uses the HCS (UseOfHCS (utranCell)) structure, the following cell
reselection rule H is used for quality ranking in cell reselection.
Hs = Qmeas,s - Qhcss
Hn = Qmeas,n - Qhcsn – TOn * Ln
If the cell does not use the HCS structure, the following cell reselection rule R is used for
quality ranking in cell reselection.
R s = Qmeas,s + Qhysts + Qoffmbms
R n = Qmeas,n - Qoffsets,n + Qoffmbms - TOn * (1 – Ln)

HCS_PRIOs: This specifies the HCS priority level for serving cell. (non-HCS cell: The
HcsPrio of the current RNC cell takes the value of HcsPrio(utranCell). The HcsPrio of
the neighbor RNC cell takes the value of HcsPrio (externalUtranCell). The HcsPrio of the
GSM cell takes the value of HcsPrio (externalGsmCell). For value of HCS cells, refer to
Value of “HCS Priority” in “Cell reselection measurement rule when the hierarchical cell
structure (HCS) is used.
The cell are ranked by quality according to the above defined R or H criteria using
CPICH RSCP (for FDD), P-CCPCH RSCP (for TDD) and the measurement result of
averaged received signal level (for GSM) as the calculation quantity of Qmeasn,
Qmeass, R or H. The best ranked cell is the cell with the highest R or H value.
For the cell selection and reselection parameters: Whether Qhcs, T Crmax , N CR and
T CrmaxHyst are configured is controlled by HcsSrvCelInfoPre. Whether the HCS-related
parameters in neighbor cell such as HCS_PRIO, Qhcs, Penalty _ time,
Temporary _ offset1 and Temporary _ offset2 are configured is controlled by UseOfHCS
(utranRelation) and UseOfHCS (gsmRelation).
If a TDD or GSM cell is ranked as the best cell, then the UE will perform cell re-selectionto that TDD or GSM cell and camps on the chosen cell.
If an FDD cell is ranked as the best cell and the quality measurement for cell selection
and re-selection is set to CPICH RSCP, the UE will perform cell re-selection to that FDD
cell and and camps on the chosen cell (If this cell is found to be not suitable, the UE will
behave according to “Highest ranked cells with cell reservations, access restrictions or
unsuitable for normal camping”).
If an FDD cell is ranked as the best cell and the quality measure for cell selection and re-
selection is set to CPICH Ec/No, the UE shall perform a second ranking of the FDD cells
according to the R criteria specified above, but using the quality measure CPICH Ec/No
for deriving the Qmeas,n and Qmeas,s and calculating the R values of the FDD cells (If this
cell is found to be not suitable, the UE will behave according to “Highest ranked cells
with cell reservations, access restrictions or unsuitable for normal camping ”).
In all cases, the UE will reselect the new cell, only if the following conditions are met: 0}
The new cell is better ranked than the serving cell during a time interval
Treselection according to the R or H criteria. If Treselection s,PCH is provided in SIB4,
the URA_PCH state timer takes the value of TreselectionPch; if TReselectionFach
is provided in SIB4, the CELL_FCH state timer takes the value of TreselectionFach.
For hierarchical cell structures when high mobility state has not been detected, if
according to the HCS rules the serving cell is not ranked then all the ranked cells
are considered to be better ranked than the serving cell. In case the UE reselects a
cell on an MBMS preferred frequency to receive an MBMS service not available on
the current frequency, the UE may reduce interval TreselectionS, TreselectionS, PCH

3.2.4.8 Absolute priority based criteria for inter-frequency and inter-RAT cell
reselection
Absolute priority based inter- frequency and inter-RAT cell reselection is controlled by
AbsPriReselSwch. When this switch is “on”, SIB 19 will be broadcast. RNC configures
related frequency information ( AllowMeasBand/DlEARFCN/
EutranInterFNum/GsmBandIndicator/GsmCellGroupNum/StartARFCN/UtranInterFNum/
UtranUARFCN ), and serving cell priority (ServCelPriority ), frequency priority
(UtranPriority ) and other RAT priority (EutranPriority/ GeranPriority ) to UE in SIB19. The
following criteria are used for inter-frequency cells if absolute priority information for
inter-frequency is available to the UE, and inter-RAT cells if absolute priority information
for inter-RAT is available to the UE.
If System Information Block 18 with UTRAN information is provided then the UE shall
apply inter-frequency priority rules below only to UTRAN cells of the selected PLMN orequivalent PLMNs. If System Information Block 18 is not provided, or is provided but
contains no information for UTRAN, then the rules below apply for the entire UTRAN
RAT.
If System Information Block 18 with GERAN information is provided then the UE shall
apply the GERAN RAT priority rules below only to GERAN cells of the selected PLMN or
equivalent PLMNs. If System Information Block 18 is not provided, or is provided but
contains no information for GERAN, then the rules below apply for the entire GERAN
RAT.
If priority information is provided for any inter-frequency layers, cells belonging to inter-frequency layers for which no priority or no threshold is assigned shall not be considered
for reselection.
If priority information is provided for any inter-RAT layers in a RAT, cells belonging to
layers in that RAT for which no priority or no threshold is assigned shall not be
considered for reselection.
If none of the inter-frequency layers in UTRAN are provided with both priority and
threshold parameters, the cell reselection criteria in subclause 3.2.4.7 shall apply for
inter-frequency layers in UTRAN.
If none of the inter-RAT layers in a RAT are provided with both priority and threhsold
parameters, the cell reselection criteria in subclause 3.2.4.7 shall apply for that RAT.
For all inter-frequency layers or all inter-RAT layers belonging to one RAT, either the
criteria below or the criteria in subclause 3.2.4.7 shall apply.
If the UE has received absolute priority information for inter -frequency layers, the UE
shall follow these rules:
The UE shall perform measurements of inter- frequency layers with a priority higher
than the priority of the current serving layer.

apply for Treselection and are scaled according to the UE mobility state and target RAT,
as specified in 3.2.4.7.
3.2.5 Cell Selection When Leaving Connected Mode
When returning to idle mode from connected mode, the UE will select a suitable cell to
camp on. Candidate cells for this selection are the cell(s) used immediately before
leaving connected mode. If no suitable cell is found, the UE will use the Stored
information cell selection procedure in order to find a suitable cell to camp on.
When returning to idle mode after an emergency call on any PLMN, the UE will select an
acceptable cell to camp on. Candidate cells for this selection are the cell(s) used
immediately before leaving connected mode. If no acceptable cell is found, the UE will
continue to search for an acceptable cell of any PLMN in state Any cell selection.

3.2.6 Any Cell Selection State
In this state, the UE will attempt to find an acceptable cell to camp on, trying all RATs
that are supported by the UE and searching first for a high quality cell, till an acceptable
cell is found.
3.2.7 Camped on Any Cell State
In this state, the UE will perform the following tasks:
Select and monitor the indicated PICH and PCH of the cell
Monitor relevant System Information
Perform necessary measurements for the cell reselection evaluation procedure
Execute the cell reselection evaluation process on the following occasions/triggers:
UE internal triggers
When information on the BCCH used for the cell reselect ion evaluation procedure
has been modified
Regularly attempt to find a suitable cell trying all RATs that are supported by the
UE. If a suitable cell is found, this causes an exit to number 2 in 0.
In this state the UE is not permitted to receive any MBMS services.
3.2.8 Cell Reservations and Access Restrictions
There are two mechanisms, which allow an operator to impose cell reservations or
access restrictions.
The first mechanism uses indication of cell status and special reservations for control of
cell selection and re-selection procedures.
The second mechanism will allow preventing selected classes of users from sendinginitial access messages for load control reasons. At subscription, one or more Access
Classes are allocated to the subscriber and stored in the USIM, which are employed for
this purpose.
3.2.8.1 Cell status and cell reservations
Cell status and cell reservations are indicated with the Cell Access Restriction
Information Element in the System Information Message by means of three Information
Elements:

Cell barred CellBarredInd
Cell Reserved for operator use OperatorUseInd
Cell reserved for future extension CellRsvExt
In state CellBarredInd , it‟s necessary to configure InFreqReselInd and TBarred for theUE. If InFreqReselInd is “Not Allowed”, the processing strategy of the intra-frequency
neighbor cell in state CellBarred is the same as the current cell in state CellBarred. The
UE will not attempt to reselect the cell in state CellBarred within the Tbarred time period.
After Tbarred expires, the UE will attempt again to reselect the cell.
When cell status is indicated as "not barred", "not reserved" for operator use and "not
reserved" for future extension
All UEs will treat this cell as candidate during the cell selection, cell evaluation andcell re-selection procedures in Idle mode and in Connected mode.
When cell status is indicated as "not barred", "not reserved" for operator use and
"reserved" for future extension
UEs will behave as if cell status "barred" is indicated using the value "not al lowed"
in the information element (IE) "Intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator" and the
maximum value for Tbarred
When cell status is indicated as "not barred" and "reserved" for operator use,
UEs assigned to Access Class 11 or 15 will treat this cell as candidate during the
cell selection and cell re-selection procedures if the cell belongs to the home PLMN.
UEs assigned to an Access Class in the range 0 to 9 and 12 to 14 shall behave as
if cell status "barred" is indicated using the value "not allowed" in the IE "Intra-
frequency cell re-selection indicator" and the maximum value for Tbarred
When cell status "barred" is indicated,
The UE is not permitted to select/re-select this cell, not even for emergency calls.
The UE will ignore the "Cell Reserved for future extension (Cell Reservation
Extension) use" IE.
The UE is not permitted to receive any MBMS services.
The UE will select another cell according to the following rule:
If the "Intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator (InFreqReselInd )" IE in Cell Access
Restriction IE is set to value "allowed", the UE may select another cell on the same
frequency if selection/re-selection criteria are fulfilled.

the relevant access class (11 to 15) are barred. Otherwise, emergency calls are allowed
for those UEs.
3.2.9 Cell Reselection Process in RRC Connected Mode
In RRC connected mode, the cell reselection process with the UTRA access technology
is the same as that in Idle mode.
3.2.10 Parameters and Configuration for Cell Selection and Reselection
The system information SIB3 related with cell selection and reselection must be
configured. SIB4 is optional. Whether to configure SIB4 is controlled by SIB4Ind . The IE
of SIB3 is totally the same as that of SIB4. The system uses different records in the
same datasheet to configure the SIB or SIB4 message and the purpose of the record isidentified through Sib3orSib4. The cell selection and reselection in IDLE mode employs
parameters in SIB3. The cell selection and reselection in connected mode and IDLE
mode employs parameters in SIB4 if SIB4 is configure, or parameters in SIB3 if SIB4 is
not configured.
3.2.11 SIB11bis usage
For current 3GPP specification, one System Information Block can be divided into 16
segmentations, each of which can include at most 222 bits. That means one System
Information Block can include at most 3552 bits. But for current specification, up to 96neighbor cells are supported at the same time which needs more bits than 3552 to carry.
To support up to 96 neighbor cells are supported at the same time, SIB11bis will be
used. Neighbor cell to be carried by SIB11 or SIB11bis is decided by
Sib11orSib11bis(utranRelation /gsmRelation).
3.3 Strategy of LA and RA Update
In the UE, the AC should report registration area information to NAC.
Once the UE finds the cell to register, it will register on the corresponding PLMN. If theLAI or RAI read from system information are different from those stored in USIM before
the UE switches off, the UE will perform LA or RA registration update. When the UE in
IDLE mode moves to a new LA or RA or PLMN, it will perform registration area update.
The process of LA or RA update is controlled by CN and is transparently transmitted as
the RAN is concerned.
There are three types of registration area update: normal update, periodic update and
IMSI attach and detach.

ZTE UMTS Idle Mode and Common Channel Behavior Feature Guide

3.3.1 LA and RA Structure
The LA is an area to which the CN sends a paging message for circuit switched service
and the RA is an area to which the CN sends a paging message for packet switched
services. Each area, LA or RA, may consist of several cells of one or more RNC, which
are connected to the same core network. The RA is required if the RNC is connected to
a packet switched CN. Note that each cell could belong to only one LA and one RA.
The LA is identified by a combination of PLMN Identity and Location Area Code (LAC).
The RA is identified by a combination of PLMN and Routing Area Code (RAC).
3.3.2 Normal LA and RA Updating
A UE executes a normal registration update when, in a cell belonging to a new LA or RA,it is switched on or leaves the Connected mode. Normal registration update is also
performed when the UE, in Idle mode, moves in a cell belonging to a new LA or RA or
PLMN. The UE reads the LAI and the RAI in the system information and detects that
one or both of the received area identities differ from the ones stored on the USIM. If the
LAI received from the system information is not in the forbidden LAIs list, an LA and/or
RA update request is sent by the UE. If the LAI is forbidden, the UE tries to select
another cell belonging to a permitted LAI or another PLMN.
3.3.3 Periodic LA and RA Updating
Periodic LA and RA updating is used to notify the network of the UEs availability, and to
avoid unnecessary paging attempts for a UE that has lost coverage and is not able to
inform the CN that it is inactive. The periodic LA update procedure is controlled by a
timer, called t3212, whose value is sent to UEs with broadcast message. The periodic
RA update is controlled by a timer, called t3312 (not a radio parameter), whose value is
sent by the CN to the UE in the IMSI attach or in the routing area update message
accept.
3.3.4 IMSI Attach/Detach
A location registration request indicating IMSI attach is made when the UE is activated in
the same LA in which it was deactivated, and the system information (att) indicates that
IMSI attach/detach is used. If the parameter att is set to 1, the UE sends an “attach” or
“detach” message when it is powered on or off indicating whether the UE is active or
inactive. The IMSI attach/detach procedure allows the UE to avoid unnecessary paging
attempts from the CN.
The CN avoids performing paging attempts when IMSI detach is applied and the UE is
switched off. When the UE is switched on and the IMSI attach/detach procedure is
applied, the UE performs a location registration request, indicating IMSI attach, if it is in

the same LA or RA in which it was switched off. If the registration area is changed, a
normal LA update is performed by the UE.
3.4 Strategy of URA Update
In state URA_PCH, the procedure URA Update is initiated in the following cases with the
trigger reason of “change of URA”:
If the new cell that the UE camps on is not in the same URA area as the former cell
that the UE camps on, the URA Update is triggered (to perform the “Figure 4 URA
update procedure, basic flow”).
The UE enters a cell that has no URAs defined. This will trigger a release of the
RRC Connection and the UE enters Idle mode (The URA ID list in SIB2 is empty or
the SIB2 information is not received) (to perform “Figure 5 URA update procedure,
failure case
-The T305 in the IE “UE Timers and constants in connected mode" set to non-
infinity and T305 expires (to perform “Figure 4 URA update procedure, basic flow”).
If the UE doesn‟t support HS-DSCH reception but receives the IE "HS-DSCH
paging system information", and the IE is not save for the moment, and the 12
MSBs (high 12 bits) of "SRNC identity" in U_RNTI does not equal to the 12 MSBs
of "Cell identity" in SIB3 (to perform “Figure 4 URA update procedure, basic flow”).

bits and 2 transport format combination indicator (TFCI) bits indicating the transport
format of transmitted data, which is equivalent to the spectrum spreading with SF=256
code words.
The transport format adopted for the data part is sent in SIB 5. ZTE RNC uses thefollowing parameters to configure the transport format of PRACH:
CPCId of PRACH indicates the common physical channel identity of PRACH.
Sib5OrSib6 of PRACH determines that the related configuration information of
PRACH corresponding to CPCId is to be broadcast in SIB5 or SIB6.
TfcsIndex of PRACH indicates the index of TFCS used by PRACH corresponding
to CPCId .
CtfcNum and Ctfc of PRACH indicates the number of CTFCs and label of TFC of
PRACH of TfcsIndex , that is, Ctfc is the array parameter and the dimension of the
array takes the value of CtfcNum.
PrachCPCId of RACH indicates the common physical channel identity of PRACH
that takes the same value of CPCId of PRACH.
CTCId of RACH indicates the common transport channel identity of RACH mapped
on the PRACH with the common physical channel identity of PrachCPCId .

SET1 = {Ndata in SET0 such that (Ndata - Ni)≥0}, that is, SET1 is the set of elements
greater than Ni in SET0.
If SET1 is not empty, then the spectrum spreading factor corresponding to Ndata with the
smallest value in SET1 is selected as the spectrum spreading factor for the PRACH
message part.
If SET1 is empty, then set up SET2:
SET2 = {Ndata in SET0 such that (Ndata – PunctLimit ×Ni)≥0}, that is, SET2 is the set of
elements greater than PunctLimit ×Ni in SET0, PunctLimit ×Ni is the remaining number of
bits of the PRACH message part after the operation of configured PunctLimit subtracted
by (1-PunctLimit )×Ni.
The spectrum spreading factor corresponding to Ndata with the smallest value in SET2 is
selected as the spectrum spreading factor for the PRACH message part.
3.6.4 Random Access Process of Physical Layer
Before the random access process of the physical layer is initialized, the physical layer
will receive the following information from the RRC layer:
Preamble scrambling code: reamScraCode
Length of random access message (10ms or 20ms)
AICH transmit time ( AichTranTime )
Available signature ( AsigStIdx and AsigEndIdx indicate the start and end serial
numbers of the valid signature sequence) and valid RACH number ( AsubChNum)
corresponding to every ASC.
Preamble power ramp step (PRStep) for random access

Maximum preamble retransmission times (MaxPreamRetrans)
Power offset of the last sent preamble and the random access message control
part (POPpm)
The transport format set of access message part (configured through TfcsIndex
indexing to actual TFCS) includes the data channel corresponding to TFC and the
power gain factor of control channel (configured separately through BetaD and
BetaC of PRACH)
Before the random access process of the physical layer is initialized, the physical layer
will receive the following information from the MAC layer:
Transport format of the PRACH message part.
ASC of PRACH transmission.
Data block that is sent.
The random access process of the physical layer is as follows:
1 Determine the available access slot set according to the RACH ( AvailSubChanNum )
corresponding to ASC and select an available access slot from the set. If there is no
available access slot in the selected slot set, select ransomly an access slot from
the next available access slot according to the RACH corresponding to ASC.
2 Select randomly a signature from the valid signature set corresponding to ASC.
3 Set the preamble retransmission counter to the maximum preamble retransmissions
(MaxPreamRetrans).
4 The UE calculates the initial transmit power of preamble (involved parameters
include BetaD, BetaC , POPpm and ConstVal of PRACH, refer to ZTE UMTS Power
Control Feature Guide).
5 If the preamble transmit power worked out by the UE exceeds the allowed UL
maximum transmit power (MaxRACHTxPwr (Prach) ), then set the preamble
transmit power to the same as the maximum transmit power. If the preambletransmit power worked out by the UE is below the allowed UL minimum transmit
power, then set the preamble transmit power to the same as the maximum transmit
power, then set the preamble transmit power to the same as the minimum transmit
power. Next, transmit the random access preamble according to the selected
signature, UL access slot and preamble transmit power. Only when the ratio of the
preamble power received by NodeB to the interference is greater than PreamThs,
NodeB will send positive response on the AICH.
6 If the UE fails to receive, in the DL access slot corresponding to the slot that sends
the UL access preamble, the positive or negative response (AI = +1 nor –1)
corresponding to the selected signature on AICH, the UE will perform the following:

Select the next available access slot set from the valid RACH numbers corresponding to
ASC.
Randomly select a valid signature from the valid signature set corresponding to ASC.
Increase the transmit power of random access preamble by one PRStep. If the transmit
power of random access preamble exceeds the maximum allowed transmit power 6dB,
the UE‟s physical layer reports "No ack on AICH" to the MAC layer and exit the physicalrandom access process.
Decrease the preamble retransmission counter by 1.
If the preamble retransmission counter is greater than 0, perform step 5 again.
Otherwise, the UE physical layer reports "No ack on AICH" to the MAC layer and exits
the physical random access process.
1 If the UE receives, in the DL access slot corresponding to the slot that sends the UL
access preamble, the negative response corresponding to the selected signature on
AICH, the UE physical layer reports "Nack on AICH received" to the MAC layer and
exits the physical random access process.
2 If the UE receives, in the DL access slot corresponding to the slot that sends the UL
access preamble, the positive response corresponding to the selected signature on
AICH, then the UE sends the message part of random access in the third UL
access slot ( AichTranTime=0) after the slot that sends the random access preamble
for the last time or in the fourth UL access slot ( AichTranTime=1). The transmit
power offset between the control part of the random access message and the last
random access preamble is configured with the parameter POPpm.
3 The UE physical layer reports "RACH message transmitted" to the MAC layer and
exits the physical random access process.
3.6.4.1 RACH access slot set
PRACH has totally 15 slots of 20ms and the slots belongs to two access slot sets.
Access s lot set 1 includes these slots: slot 0~7 starting from p-a chips before the DL P-
CCPCH frame of SFN mod 2=0. Access slot set 2 includes these slots: slot 8~14 startingfrom p-a –2560 chips before the DL P-CCPCH frame of SFN mod 2=0. Figure 3-12
shows the diagram of the two access slot sets:

3.6.4.3 PRACH/AICH timing relation
The AICH frame is 20ms long and divided into 15 slots, each slot with 5120 chips. The
DL access slot is aligned wih PCCPCH.
The UL PRACH is divided into 15 UL access slots, each slot with 5120 chips. The UL
slot number n is transmitted from thep-a chips prior to the expected reception of of slot n
corresponding to AICH. The minimum interval between two consecutive random access
preambles isp-p,min. The interval between random access preamble and AICH response
is p-a. Figure 3-13 shows thep-p,min, p-a and the timing relation between the random
access preamble and random access message part:

AichTranTime), there are the following two types of timing relation:
1 AICH_Transmission_Timing = 0
p-p,min = 15360 chips (3 access slots)
p-a = 7680 chips (1.5 slots)
p-m = 15360 chips (3 access slots)

3.6.5 Random Access Process of the MAC Layer
The UE RRC layer sends the RACH transport control parameter to the MAC layer. The
parameters include:
ASC parameter: The available PRACH partition corresponding to every ASC,
including available signature ( AsigStIdx and AsigEndIdx indicate the start and end
serial numbers of the valid signature sequence) corresponding to every ASC and
valid RACH subchannel number ( AsubChNum) and persistence value P i (Pi
indicates the probility of sending the random access preamble and it is controlled
by DynPstLevelInit and PSF ). AsigStIdx , AsigEndIdx and AsubChNum are defined
in array mode. The array dimension equals to “allowed maximum access service
class (PermitMaxASC )” whose upper limit is 8. PSF is defined in array mode and
8/10/2019 Idle Mode - ZTE_ok
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/idle-mode-zteok 50/116
ZTE UMTS Idle Mode and Common Channel Behavior Feature Guide
44 © 2010 ZTE Corporation. All rights reserved. ZTE Confidential Proprietary
the array dimension equals to number of persistence factors (PsfNum) whose
upper limit is 6.
The maximum preamble ramping cycles, Mmax , is used to control the maximum
attempts of the MAC layer to initiate the random access process.
The rollback interval range is expressed by the parameters NB01min and
NB01max (multiple of 10ms). They indicate the status of NACK as received by
AICH. NB01max indicates the maximum interval between AICH receiving NACK
and the MAC layer initiating again the random access process. NB01min indicates
the minimum interval between AICH receiving NACK and the MAC layer initiating
again the random access process.
If there is data being transmitted, the MAC layer selects, from the set of available ASCs,
a ASCi and PRACH partition corresponding to ASCi and also Pi.
Based on the probability of sending random access preamble as indicated by Pi, the UE
determines whether to start the physical layer access process at the current TTI. If the
sending is allowed, then the UE initializes the physical layer random access process
then the MAC layer waits for the returned information from the physical layer. If the
sending is not allowed, then the MAC layer attempts again the random access process
at the next TTI.
When the preamble sent from the physical layer is acknowledged positively by AICH, the
physical layer notifies the MAC layer of "ready for data transmission" with the primitive
PHY-ACCESS-CNF. Next, the MAC layer uses the primitive PHY-DATA-REQ to perform
data transmission. The transmission process of PRACH ends after the PRACH message
part is sent. In addition, the high-level MAC should be notified of the successful sending
of the control process.
When the attempts of preamble sending by the physical layer reaches the value of
MaxPreamRetrans but still the response of AICH is not received, the physical layer
notifies the MAC layer of related information. The MAC layer then makes new sending
attempt at the next TTI. The timer T2 ensures that there is at least a 10ms interval
between two consecutive sending attempts.
When the UE receives the negative response from AICH, it starts the rollback timer TBO1.
After the timer expires, it may make another sending attempt. TBO1 is set to NBO1
multiples of 10ms. The value of NBO1 satisfies the relation:
0NB01minNBO1NB01max . When a fixed delay is expected, NB01min and NB01max
can be set to the same value.
Before every attempt of the random access process, it‟s necessary to check whether
new RACH sending control parameter is received from the RRC layer. If yes, then the
latest RACH sending control parameter is used.

Idle Mode and Common Channel Behavior Feature Guide
ZTE Confidential Proprietary © 2010 ZTE Corporation. All rights reserved. 45
If the number of new attempts by the MAC layer exceeds the maximum preamble
ramping cycles, Mmax , then the MAC layer notifies the RRC layer of the RACH sending
failure.
The successful or unsuccessful control process sending by the MAC layer is meant for
every logic channel.
3.6.5.1 Establishment of access service classes
To differentiate user priorities, different RACH-related physical resources (such access
slot and preamble signature) can be allocated to different ASCs. The same access slot
and signature may also be allocated to several or all ASCs.
ASC is numbered as I: 0 i NumASC 7 (there can be 8 ASCs at most). ASC0 is of
the highest priority and is used for emergency call or other services with the same
priority. The ASC numbered as i corresponds to one type of PRACH-related resource
allocation mode (PRACH partition) and corresponding persistence factor Pi. The
information can be obtained from the system information broadcast.
The dynamic persistence factor P i is worked out according to the dynamic persistence
level N=1…8 (sent in SIB7) corresponding to ASC i and the persistence scaling factor s i
(sent in SIB5 or SIB56, configured with PSF ). 0 shows the mapping relation. If number k
1 of persistence factors s i is broadcast and also NumASC k+2, then for the ASC of i >
k +1, the persistence factor is defaulted as sk+1. Therefore, PSF only needs to configure
the persistence scaling factor s i for ASC2~ ASCk+1. (PSF is defined in the array mode.)
P(N) =2(N 1)
Table 3-3 ASCi-to-Pi Mapping Relation
ASCi 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Pi 1 P(N) s2 P(N) s3 P(N) s4 P(N) s5 P(N) s6P(N) s7 P(N)
As shown in above table, when ASC=0 and ASC=1, the factor si is not needed. If s i is
not broadcast in the system information, then for the ASC with the NumASC>=2, its si
can be defaulted as 1.
3.6.5.2 AC-to-ASC mapping
AC is used for primary access only, for example, when the RRC CONNECTION
REQUEST is sent.
The AC-to-ASC mapping related is broadcast in the IE of SIB5: "AC-to-ASC mapping",
and is configured with AC2ASCMap. The relation between AC and ASC is listed in 0.
There can be 8 ASCs at most.
