9.2.3 Handover Restriction List
36.4233GPPEvolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN)Release 17TSX2 Application Protocol (X2AP)
This IE defines roaming or access restrictions for subsequent mobility action for which the eNB provides information about the target of the mobility action towards the UE, e.g., handover and CCO, or for SCG selection during dual connectivity operation.

BIT STRING { LEO (0), MEO (1), GEO (2), OTHERSAT (3)} (SIZE(8, …)) |
Each position in the bitmap represents a RAT. If a bit is set to "1", the respective RAT is restricted for the UE. If a bit is set to "0", the respective RAT is not restricted for the UE. Bits 4-7 reserved for future use. |
