7.3.4 UE recognising the priority order of the User controlled PLMN selector over the Operator controlled PLMN selector list – E-UTRAN
7.3.4.1 Definition and applicability
The User controlled PLMN selector list has a higher priority as the OPLMN selector list on which the UE shall register. The Radio Access Technology identifier defines the Radio network in which the UE shall register. The list is stored on the USIM in the EFPLMNwACT.
7.3.4.2 Conformance requirement
When registering onto a VPLMN the UE shall take into account the priority of UPLMNs first before the OPLMNs in the preferred list on the USIM.

The UICC is installed into the Terminal and the UE is set to automatic PLMN selection mode.
7.3.7.4.2 Procedure
a) The UE is powered on.
b) After receipt of an RRCConnectionRequest-NB from the UE on the NB-IoT-cell related to the BCCH transmitting MCC/MNC 254/012, the NB-SS sends RRCConnectionSetup-NB to the UE, followed by RRCConnectionSetupComplete-NB sent by the UE to the NB-SS.
c) During registration and after receipt of a AttachRequest from the UE, the NB-SS initiates authentication, starts integrity by using the security procedure and sends AttachAccept with to the UE:
TAI (MCC/MNC/TAC): 254/012/ 0001
GUTI: "25401200010266436587"
d) After receipt of the AttachComplete during registration from the UE, the NB-SS sends RRCConnectionRelease-NB.
e) The UE is soft powered down.
7.3.7.5 Acceptance criteria
1.) After step a) the UE shall send a RRCConnectionRequest-NB on the NB-IoT-cell related to the BCCH transmitting MCC/MNC 254/012 to the NB-SS.
2) After step b) the terminal shall send AttachRequest to the NB-SS.
3) After step c) the terminal shall respond with AttachComplete during registration.

7.3.8 UE recognising the priority order of the Operator controlled PLMN selector list using the ACT preference – E-UTRAN in NB-S1 mode/ GSM
7.3.8.1 Definition and applicability
The Operator controlled PLMN selector list gives in priority order the preferred OPLMNs on which the UE shall register if no network of the User controlled PLMN selector list is available. The Radio Access Technology identifier defines the Radio network in which the UE shall register. The list is stored on the USIM in the EFOPLMNwACT. Update and deletion of OPLMNs shall not be possible by the subscriber by the use of the PIN.
7.3.8.2 Conformance requirement
When registering onto a VPLMN the UE shall take into account the priority of OPLMNs in the preferred list on the USIM.
– TS 22.011 [6], clause 3.2.2;
– TS 31.102 [4], clause 4.2.53, 4.2.5 and 5.1.1.2.
7.3.8.3 Test purpose
To verify that the OPLMN with the higher priority (defined by its position in EFOPLMNwACT) takes precedence over the OPLMN with the lower priority when the UE performs a network selection. Hereby the new coding for RAT
E-UTRAN in NB-S1 mode has to be handled correctly by the UE.
7.3.8.4 Method of test
7.3.8.4.1 Initial conditions
For this test both a GSM SS and an NB-IoT NB-SS are needed.
The GSM SS transmits on BCCH, with the following network parameters:
– Attach/detach: disabled.
– LAI (MCC/MNC/LAC): 244/083/0001.
– Access control: unrestricted.
The NB-SS transmits on the BCCH, with the following network parameters:
– TAI (MCC/MNC/TAC): 244/083/0001.
– Access control: unrestricted.
The default E-UTRAN UICC is used with the following exception:
