A.5.5.3 Cell Reselection to GSM

25.1333GPPRelease 17Requirements for support of radio resource management (FDD)TS

A.5.5.3.1 Test Purpose and Environment

The purpose of this test is to verify the requirement for the cell re-selection delay in CELL_FACH state in section 5.5.2.1.4.

This scenario implies the presence of 1 UTRAN serving cell, and 1 GSM cell to be re-selected. The UE is requested to monitor neighbouring cells on 1 UMTS carrier and 6 GSM cells. Test parameters are given in Table, A.5.4A, A.5.4B, A.5.4C, A.5.4D, A.5.4E.

A.5.5.3.2 Test Requirements

The cell re-reselection delay is defined as the time from the beginning of time period T2, to the moment when the UE starts to transmit the random access in Cell 2 (the GSM cell).

The cell re-selection delay shall be less than 5.5 + TRA s.

The rate of correct reselections observed during repeated tests shall be at least 90%.

NOTE: The cell re-selection delay can be expressed

ms

where:

Tidentify,GSM Specified in 8.4.2.5.2.1, here it is 2880 ms

Tmeasurement, GSM Specified in 5.5.2.1.4, here it is 640 ms

TBCCH According to [21], the maximum time allowed to read the BCCH data, when being synchronized to a BCCH carrier, is 1.9 s.

TRA The additional delay caused by the random access procedure in the GSM cell. Shall be defined by T1/RF when the test case is further detailed in TS 34.121.

This gives a total of 5.46 +TRA s, allow 5.5 + TRA s.

TBCCH According to [21], the maximum time allowed to read the BCCH data, when being synchronized to a BCCH carrier, is 1.9 s.

TRA The additional delay caused by the random access procedure in the GSM cell. Shall be defined by RAN5 when the test case is further detailed in TS 34.121.

This gives a total of 2.88 +TRA s, allow 2.9 + TRA s.
