Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION message to the UE.

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. The SS transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message to the UE to invoke the UE to transit from CELL_DCH to CELL_FACH. The UE shall reconfigure the common physical channel correctly according to this message. To complete this procedure, the UE shall transmit a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS then send a MEASUREMENT CONTROL message to UE.

However, the SS keeps its current physical channel configuration and then the UE cannot synchronise with the SS. After T312 expires, the UE attempt to revert to the old configuration. Then the UE shall transmit a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION FAILURE message on the DCCH using AM RLC which is set "physical channel failure" in IE "failure cause". UE shall continue its traffic volume measurement and send MEASUREMENT REPORT messages back to SS periodically.

3GPP TS 25.331 clause 8.2.2.7, 8.2.2.9,8.3.1.7, 8.5.4

8.2.6.12.3 Test purpose

To confirm that the UE initiates a cell update procedure after it fails to reconfigure the new physical channel and selects another cell.

To confirm that UE transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION FAILURE message after UE completes cell update procedure.

8.2.6.12.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 2 cells – Cell 1 and 2 are active.

UE: PS-DCCH+DTCH_DCH (state 6-10) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108 in cell 1

NOTE: The ‘timer poll’ value in the SS RLC transmit entity should be set to 800 ms.

Test Procedure

Table 8.2.6.12

Parameter	Unit	Cell 1		Cell 2
Parameter	Unit	T0	T1	T0	T1
UTRA RF Channel Number		Mid Range Test Frequency		Mid Range Test Frequency
CPICH Ec (FDD)	dBm/3.84MHz	-60	-75	-75	-60
P-CCPCH RSCP (TDD)	dBm	-60	-75	-75	-60

Table 8.2.6.12 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings between columns "T0" and "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies a reverse in the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 2.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state in cell 1. The SS transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message to the UE to invoke the UE to transit from CELL_DCH to CELL_FACH. The UE shall reconfigure the common physical channel correctly according to this message. To complete this procedure, the UE shall transmit a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION COMPLETE message using AM RLC. Then SS transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message to the UE, but the SS does not reconfigure L1 accordingly. The SS configures its downlink transmission power settings according to columns "T1"in table 8.2.6.12. As a result, the UE fails to synchronise on the new physical channel before timer T312 expires. UE may send a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION FAILURE message on the DCCH using AM RLC, setting IE "failure cause" to "physical channel failure" to cell 1. UE reselects to cell 2 and then the UE shall transmit a CELL UPDATE message on uplink CCCH with IE "Cell update cause" set to "Cell reselection". The SS shall transmit a CELL UPDATE CONFIRM message on downlink DCCH after receiving a CELL UPDATE message. If not already done so, the UE may transmit a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION FAILURE message on the DCCH using AM RLC, setting IE "failure cause" to "physical channel failure" in cell 2. UE shall transmit UTRAN MOBILITY INFORMATION CONFIRM message on the DCCH using AM RLC in cell 2 to acknowledge the reception of new C-RNTI value. If not already done so, the UE shall transmit a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION FAILURE message on the DCCH using AM RLC, setting IE "failure cause" to "physical channel failure".

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.

UTRA RF Channel Number		Mid Range Test Frequency				High Range Test Frequency
CPICH Ec	dBm/3.84MHz	-60	-60	-60	-60	Off	-60	-90	-60

Table 8.2.6.29 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"or "T1" to "T2" or "T2" to "T3", 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 8.2.6.29. The SS transmits MEASUREMENT CONTROL message in order for the UE to perform Inter-frequency measurements and report event 2c. The SS switches its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T1" in table 8.2.6.29, but the UE shall not transmit any MEASUREMENT REPORT messages. The SS transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message, which includes IE "DPCH compressed mode info" with "TGPS Status Flag" set to "Activate". The UE shall transmit PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION COMPLETE message on the uplink DCCH using AM RLC. The UE shall transmit MEASUREMENT REPORT message to report event 2c with the measured CPICH RSCP value for cell 6 to the SS. The SS transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message, which includes IE"DPCH compressed mode info" with "TGPS Status Flag" set to "deactivate". The UE shall respond with the PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION COMPLETE message on the uplink DCCH using AM RLC. After the SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T2" in table 8.2.6.29 and 10s is passed, the SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T3" in table 8.2.6.29. The UE shall not send any MEASUREMENT REPORT messages on the uplink DCCH because the UE cannot measure the CPICH RSCP on non used frequency as the compressed mode operation has been deactivated.

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.

8.2.6.32.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 2 cells – Cell 1 is active and cell 6 is inactive

UE: "Registered idle mode on PS" (state 3) in cell 1 as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108, depending on the CN domain supported by the UE If the UE supports both CS and PS domains, the initial UE state shall be "Registered idle mode on CS/PS" (state 7).

		T0	T1	T0	T1
UTRA RF Channel Number		Mid Range Test Frequency		High Range Test Frequency
CPICH Ec	dBm/3.84MHz	-55	-72	Off	-55

Table 8.2.6.32 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings between columns "T0" and "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies a reverse in the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in idle mode of cell 1 and the SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T0" in table 8.2.6.32. SS requests operator to make an outgoing call. The SS and UE execute procedure P5. Next The SS and the UE execute procedure P9 and then execute procedure P13. The SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T1" and transmits a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message with IE "Frequency info" omitted. The UE shall transmit a PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION COMPLETE message using AM RLC and enter URA_PCH state of cell 6. Upon completion of the procedure, the SS calls for generic procedure C.5 to check that UE is in URA_PCH 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.
