The measurement rules below apply in Idle, URA_PCH, CELL_PCH states. In CELL_FACH state, if (High Priority Layers is indicated in CELL_FACH Absolute Priority Measurement Indicator [4] and SrxlevServingCell > Sprioritysearch1 and SqualServingCell > Sprioritysearch2) or (All Layers is indicated in CELL_FACH Absolute Priority Measurement Indicator [4]) then the measurement rules below apply, otherwise the measurement rules in 5.2.6.1.1 and 5.2.6.1.2 apply.
The UE is required to perform measurements of inter-frequency and inter-RAT cells listed in system information according to Measurement requirements are specified in [10]. UE specific priorities are not applied in camped on any cell state.
…
If the UE has received absolute priority information for inter-RAT layers, the UE shall follow these rules:
– The UE shall perform measurements of inter-RAT layers with a priority higher than the priority of the current serving cell.
…
– In CELL_FACH state: If there are UTRAN inter-frequency, GERAN and E-UTRAN neighbours configured and required to be measured according to the measurement rules above, then the UE shall perform measurements on UTRAN inter-frequency and E-UTRAN layers (i.e. the UE is not required to measure GERAN, regardless of whether GERAN has absolute priorities assigned).
[TS 25.304, clause 5.2.6.1.4a]
The following definitions apply for the layers for which Threshx,high2 or Threshx,low2 are not provided:
– Criterion 1: the SrxlevnonServingCell,x of a cell on an evaluated higher absolute priority layer is greater than Threshx,high during a time interval Treselection;
…Cell reselection to a cell on a higher absolute priority layer than the camped frequency shall be performed if criterion 1 or 4 is fulfilled.
[TS 25.331, clause 8.1.1.6.19]
If the cell is not operating in MBSFN mode according to subclause 8.1.1.6.3 the UE should store all relevant IEs included in this system information block. If the cell is not operating in MBSFN mode according to subclause 8.1.1.6.3 the UE shall:

The measurement rules below apply in Idle, URA_PCH, CELL_PCH states. In CELL_FACH state, if (High Priority Layers is indicated in CELL_FACH Absolute Priority Measurement Indicator [4] and SrxlevServingCell > Sprioritysearch1 and SqualServingCell > Sprioritysearch2) or (All Layers is indicated in CELL_FACH Absolute Priority Measurement Indicator [4]) then the measurement rules below apply, otherwise the measurement rules in 5.2.6.1.1 and 5.2.6.1.2 apply.
The UE is required to perform measurements of inter-frequency and inter-RAT cells listed in system information according to Measurement requirements are specified in [10]. UE specific priorities are not applied in camped on any cell state.
…
If the UE has received absolute priority information for inter-RAT layers, the UE shall follow these rules:
– The UE shall perform measurements of inter-RAT layers with a priority higher than the priority of the current serving cell.
…
– In CELL_FACH state: If there are UTRAN inter-frequency, GERAN and E-UTRAN neighbours configured and required to be measured according to the measurement rules above, then the UE shall perform measurements on UTRAN inter-frequency and E-UTRAN layers (i.e. the UE is not required to measure GERAN, regardless of whether GERAN has absolute priorities assigned).
[TS 25.304, clause 5.2.6.1.4a]
The following definitions apply for the layers for which Threshx,high2 or Threshx,low2 are not provided:
– Criterion 1: the SrxlevnonServingCell,x of a cell on an evaluated higher absolute priority layer is greater than Threshx,high during a time interval Treselection;
…Cell reselection to a cell on a higher absolute priority layer than the camped frequency shall be performed if criterion 1 or 4 is fulfilled.
[TS 25.331, clause 8.1.1.6.19]
If the cell is not operating in MBSFN mode according to subclause 8.1.1.6.3 the UE should store all relevant IEs included in this system information block. If the cell is not operating in MBSFN mode according to subclause 8.1.1.6.3 the UE shall:
1> if the value of the IE "Priority status" in the variable PRIORITY_INFO_LIST equals "dedicated_priority":
2> clear every stored value of "Threshx, high", "Threshx, low", "Threshx, high2", "Threshx, low2" and "EUTRA-RSRQ-offsetWB" in every occurrence of the IE "Priority Info List" in the variable PRIORITY_INFO_LIST.
1> otherwise:
2> clear the variable PRIORITY_INFO_LIST.
1> clear the variable EUTRA_FREQUENCY_INFO_LIST;
1> act upon the received IE "UTRA priority info list" as described in subclause 8.6.7.3a;
1> if the IE "GSM priority info list" is present:
2> act upon the received IE as described in subclause 8.6.7.3b.
1> if the IE "E-UTRA frequency and priority info list" is present:
2> act upon the received IE as described in subclause 8.6.7.3c.
1> if the IE "E-UTRA frequency RACH reporting information" is present; and
1> if the UE supports E-UTRA RACH reporting:
2> store the IE "E-UTRA frequency RACH reporting information" into the variable EUTRA_FREQUENCY_INFO_LIST_FACH and act upon the received IE as described in subclause 8.5.23.

}
6.2.4.6.2 Conformance requirements
References: The conformance requirements covered in the present TC are specified in: TS 25.304, 5.2.6.1.2a, 5.2.6.1.4a and TS 25.331, 8.1.1.6.19.
[TS 25.304, clause 5.2.6.1.2a]
The measurement rules below apply in Idle, URA_PCH, CELL_PCH states. In CELL_FACH state, if (High Priority Layers is indicated in CELL_FACH Absolute Priority Measurement Indicator [4] and SrxlevServingCell > Sprioritysearch1 and SqualServingCell > Sprioritysearch2) or (All Layers is indicated in CELL_FACH Absolute Priority Measurement Indicator [4]) then the measurement rules below apply, otherwise the measurement rules in 5.2.6.1.1 and 5.2.6.1.2 apply.
The UE is required to perform measurements of inter-frequency and inter-RAT cells listed in system information according to Measurement requirements are specified in [10]. UE specific priorities are not applied in camped on any cell state.
…
If the UE has received absolute priority information for inter-RAT layers, the UE shall follow these rules:
…
– For inter-RAT layers with a priority lower than the priority of the current serving cell:
…
– If SrxlevServingCell <= Sprioritysearch1 or SqualServingCell <= Sprioritysearch2 the UE shall perform measurements of inter-RAT layers of lower priority.
…
– In CELL_FACH state: If there are UTRAN inter-frequency, GERAN and E-UTRAN neighbours configured and required to be measured according to the measurement rules above, then the UE shall perform measurements on UTRAN inter-frequency and E-UTRAN layers (i.e. the UE is not required to measure GERAN, regardless of whether GERAN has absolute priorities assigned).
[TS 25.304, clause 5.2.6.1.4a]
The following definitions apply for the layers for which Threshx,high2 or Threshx,low2 are not provided:
…
– Criterion 3: (SrxlevServingCell < Threshserving,low or SqualServingCell <= Threshserving,low2) and the SrxlevnonServingCell,x of a cell on an evaluated lower absolute priority layer is greater than Threshx,low during a time interval Treselection;
… Cell reselection to a cell on a lower absolute priority layer than the camped frequency shall be performed if criterion 3 or 5 is fulfilled.
[TS 25.331, clause 8.1.1.6.19]
If the cell is not operating in MBSFN mode according to subclause 8.1.1.6.3 the UE should store all relevant IEs included in this system information block. If the cell is not operating in MBSFN mode according to subclause 8.1.1.6.3 the UE shall:
1> if the value of the IE "Priority status" in the variable PRIORITY_INFO_LIST equals "dedicated_priority":
2> clear every stored value of "Threshx, high", "Threshx, low", "Threshx, high2", "Threshx, low2" and "EUTRA-RSRQ-offsetWB" in every occurrence of the IE "Priority Info List" in the variable PRIORITY_INFO_LIST.
1> otherwise:
2> clear the variable PRIORITY_INFO_LIST.
1> clear the variable EUTRA_FREQUENCY_INFO_LIST;
1> act upon the received IE "UTRA priority info list" as described in subclause 8.6.7.3a;
1> if the IE "GSM priority info list" is present:
2> act upon the received IE as described in subclause 8.6.7.3b.
1> if the IE "E-UTRA frequency and priority info list" is present:
2> act upon the received IE as described in subclause 8.6.7.3c.
1> if the IE "E-UTRA frequency RACH reporting information" is present; and
1> if the UE supports E-UTRA RACH reporting:
2> store the IE "E-UTRA frequency RACH reporting information" into the variable EUTRA_FREQUENCY_INFO_LIST_FACH and act upon the received IE as described in subclause 8.5.23.
