A.5.5.5 UTRAN to E-UTRA Cell Reselection

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

A.5.5.5.1 Reselection to E-UTRA FDD when HS-DSCH DRX is configured (E-UTRA has higher priority)

A.5.5.5.1.1 Test Purpose and Environment

This test is to verify the requirement for the UTRA FDD to E-UTRA FDD inter-RAT cell reselection delay reported in section 5.5.2.1.5

The test scenario comprises two different cells, with cell 1 being the UTRA serving cell and cell 2 being the E-UTRA cell to be re-selected to. Test parameters are given in Tables A.5.4L, A.5.4M, A.5.4N. The test consists of two successive time periods, with time duration of T1, T2. UTRA cell 1 is already identified by the UE prior to the start of the test. Cell 2 is of higher priority than cell 1.

Cell 1 and cell 2 shall belong to different tracking areas. Furthermore, UE has not registered with network for the tracking area containing cell 2.

CELL_FACH with discontinuous HS-DSCH reception should be configured. The UE should not be scheduled with HS-DSCH data during T1 and T2 such that the DRX cycle becomes active

A.5.5.5.1.2 Test Requirements

The cell re-selection delay is defined as the time from the beginning of time period T2, to the moment when the UE camps on Cell 2, and starts to send preambles on the PRACH for sending the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message to perform a Tracking Area Update procedure on Cell 2.

The cell re-selection delay shall be less than 66 s.

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

NOTE: The cell re-selection delay can be expressed as: , where:

TSI = the maximum time allowed aquire system information from a E-UTRAN cell, 1280msec [24].

TRA = the additional delay caused by the random access procedure, 30msec [24]

TIdentify,,E-UTRAN = Time to identify an E-UTRA cell, as defined in section 8.4a.2.6.1

Thigher_priority_search is described in section 4.2.2

This gives a total of 67.7, allow 66 s in the test case.

A.5.5.5.2 Reselection to E-UTRA FDD when HS-DSCH DRX is configured (E-UTRA has lower priority)

A.5.5.5 2.1 Test Purpose and Environment

This test is to verify the requirement for the UTRAN to E-UTRAN cell reselection delay reported in section 5.5.2.1.5.

This scenario implies the presence of 1 UTRAN serving cell, and 1 E-UTRAN cell to be re-selected. The UE is requested to monitor neighbouring cells on 1 UTRAN carrier and 1 E-UTRAN carrier. Test parameters are given in Table, A.5.4O, A.5.4P, A.5.4Q. The test consists of two successive time periods, with time duration of T1 and T2, respectively. Both UTRA cell 1 and E-UTRA cell 2 are already identified by the UE prior to the start of the test. Cell 2 is of lower priority than cell 1. Cell 1 and cell 2 shall belong to different tracking areas.

CELL_FACH with discontinuous HS-DSCH reception and with only the first DRX cycle active should be configured. The UE should not be scheduled with HS-DSCH data during T1 and T2 such that the DRX cycle becomes active.

A.5.5.5.5.2 Test Requirements

The cell reselection delay is defined as the time from the beginning of time period T2, to the moment when the UE camps on Cell 2, and starts to send preambles on the PRACH for sending the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message to perform a Tracking Area Update procedure on Cell 2.

The cell re-selection delay shall be less than 5.7 s.

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

, where:

TSI = the maximum time allowed aquire system information from a E-UTRAN cell, 1280msec [24].

TRA = the additional delay caused by the random access procedure, 30msec [24]

TIdentify,,E-UTRAN = Time to identify an E-UTRA cell, as defined in section 8.4a.2.6.1

This gives a total of 5.61 s, allow 5.7s in the test case.

A5.5.5.6 Reselection to E-UTRA TDD when HS-DSCH 2nd DRX is configured configured (E-UTRA has higher priority)

A.5.5.5.6.1 Test Purpose and Environment

This test is to verify the requirement for the UTRA FDD to E-UTRA TDD inter-RAT cell reselection delay reported in section 5.5.2.1.5

The test scenario comprises two different cells, with cell 1 being the UTRA serving cell and cell 2 being the E-UTRA cell to be re-selected to. Test parameters are given in Tables A.5.4ZA, A.5.4ZB, A.5.4ZC. The test consists of two successive time periods, with time duration of T1, T2. UTRA cell 1 is already identified by the UE prior to the start of the test. Cell 2 shall have higher priority than Cell 1.

Cell 1 and cell 2 shall belong to different tracking areas. Furthermore, UE has not registered with network for the tracking area containing cell 2.

CELL_FACH with discontinuous HS-DSCH reception and 2nd DRX cycle should be configured. The UE should not be scheduled with HS-DSCH data during T1 and T2 such that the DRX cycle becomes active

A.5.5.5.7 Reselection to E-UTRA FDD with FACH measurement occasions configured

A.5.5.5.7.1 Test Purpose and Environment

This test is to verify the requirement for the UTRAN to E-UTRA cell re-selection delay reported in section 5.5.2.1.5 with measurement occasions configured.

This scenario implies the presence of 1 UTRAN serving cell, and 1 E-UTRA FDD cell to be re-selected. The UE is requested to monitor neighbouring cells on 2 UMTS carriers, 12 GSM cells and 1 E-UTRA FDD carrier. Test parameters are given in Table, A.5.4ZF, A.5.4ZG and A.5.4ZH. During time phase T1, the E-UTRA cell can be identified but is not sufficiently strong to trigger reselection. Cell 2 is of higher priority than cell 1. The GERAN neighbour cells are not assigned any absolute priority.

The transport and physical parameters of the S-CCPCH carrying the FACH are defined in Table A.5.4ZD and Table A.5.4ZE.
