Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_FACH state. SS then send a MEASUREMENT CONTROL message to UE. The UE shall perform periodical traffic volume measurement according to this message and then transmit MEASUREMENT REPORT message back to SS. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE message and keeps its current physical channel configuration. The UE is expected to encounter a failure while releasing the radio bearer. After T312 timer expires, the UE shall revert to the old radio bearer configuration, so the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE FAILURE message on the DCCH using AM RLC which is set to "physical channel failure" in IE "failure cause". UE shall continue its traffic volume measurement and send MEASUREMENT REPORT messages back to SS periodically.

Table 8.2.3.24 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings from columns "T0" to "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state of cell 1 and the SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T0" in table 8.2.3.24. The SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T1" and transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE message including IE "Frequency info" set to frequency information of cell 6 and IE "Primary CPICH info" set to Primary Scrambling Code which is assigned to P-CPICH of cell 6. The UE shall select cell 6 and release the radio access bearer after receiving this message, and then remain in CELL_DCH state. The UE transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE COMPLETE message using AM RLC after it completes reconfiguration according to received RADIO BEARER RELEASE message. Upon completion of the procedure, the SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

NOTE: If the UE fails the test because of a failure to reselect to a right cell, then the operator may re-run the test.

8.2.3.29.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 1 cell.

UE: CS-DCCH+DTCH_DCH (state 6-9) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state of cell 1. The UE initiates a session setup to establish a PS signalling connection. Then UE and SS establish a PS session while the CS call is still active. The SS transmits a DISCONNECT message to release a CS domain signalling connection. After the CC procedure, SS transmit a RADIO BEARER RELEASE message which includes IE "Signalling Connection release indication" set to "CS domain" and new configuration for remained service to the UE. The UE shall configure the specified channel and transmit a RADIO BEARER RELEASE COMPLETE message on the uplink DCCH using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Reference

3GPP TS 25.331 clause 8.5.28

8.2.3.36.3 Test purpose

To confirm that the UE releases a radio bearer mapped on E-DCH / HS-DSCH and stops E-DCH transmission / HS-DSCH reception according to the received RADIO BEARER RELEASE message with frequency modification.

8.2.3.36.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 2 cells–Cells 1 and 6 are active.

UE: PS-DCCH_DCH (state 6-7) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108.

Related ICS/IXIT statement(s)

– UE supports FDD or TDD

– UE supports CS speech

– UE supports HS-PDSCH

– UE supports E-DPDCH(FDD) or E-PUCH (1.28Mcps TDD)

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state and only signalling radio bearers have been established. SS initiates P26 to make the UE to move to state 6-18 as specified in TS 34.108 clause 7.4. The UE is in CELL_DCH state and has a radio bearer mapped on HS-DSCH and E-DCH established. The SS initiates P24 to set up CS speech RAB.

Then SS transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE message to the UE. The UE transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state and only signalling radio bearers mapped on E-DCH/HS-DSCH have been established. SS initiates P26 and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH, with UL DTX configured. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. The UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. The UE is in CELL_DCH state and has a radio bearer mapped on HS-DSCH and E-DCH with DTX and, if supported, DRX active.

Then SS transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE message to the UE. The UE transmits a RADIO BEARER RELEASE COMPLETE message using AM RLC.
