References: The conformance requirements covered in the present TC are specified in: TS 36.331, clause 5.3.11.3, 5.4.2.3 and 5.6.5.3.

[TS 36.331, clause 5.3.11.3 (TP1, TP2)]

The UE shall:

1> upon T310 expiry; or

1> upon random access problem indication from MAC while neither T300, T301, T304 nor T311 is running; or

1> upon indication from RLC that the maximum number of retransmissions has been reached:

2> consider radio link failure to be detected;

2> store the following radio link failure information in the VarRLF-Report by setting its fields as follows:

3> clear the information included in VarRLF-Report, if any;

3> set the plmn-Identity to the RPLMN;

3> set the measResultLastServCell to include the RSRP and RSRQ, if available, of the PCell based on measurements collected up to the moment the UE detected radio link failure;

3> set the measResultNeighCells to include the best measured cells, other than the PCell, ordered such that the best cell is listed first, and based on measurements collected up to the moment the UE detected radio link failure, and set its fields as follows;

4> if the UE was configured to perform measurements for one or more EUTRA frequencies, include the measResultListEUTRA;

4> if the UE was configured to perform measurement reporting for one or more neighbouring UTRA frequencies, include the measResultListUTRA;

4> if the UE was configured to perform measurement reporting for one or more neighbouring GERAN frequencies, include the measResultListGERAN;

4> if the UE was configured to perform measurement reporting for one or more neighbouring CDMA2000 frequencies, include the measResultsCDMA2000;

NOTE: The measured quantities are filtered by the L3 filter as configured in the mobility measurement configuration. The measurements are based on the time domain measurement resource restriction, if configured. Blacklisted cells are not required to be reported.

3> if detailed location information is available, set the content of the locationInfo as follows:

4> include the locationCoordinates;

4> include the horizontalVelocity, if available;

3> set the failedPCellId to the global cell identity, if available, and otherwise to the physical cell identity and carrier frequency of the PCell where radio link failure is detected;

3> if an RRCConnectionReconfiguration message including the mobilityControlInfo was received before the connection failure:

4> include previousPCellId and set it to the global cell identity of the PCell where the last RRCConnectionReconfiguration including the mobilityControlInfo message was received;

4> set the timeConnFailure to the elapsed time since reception of the last RRCConnectionReconfiguration message including the mobilityControlInfo;

3> set the connectionFailureType to rlf;

2> if AS security has not been activated:

3> perform the actions upon leaving RRC_CONNECTED as specified in 5.3.12, with release cause ‘other’;

2> else:

3> initiate the connection re-establishment procedure as specified in 5.3.7;

The UE may discard the radio link failure information, i.e. release the UE variable VarRLF-Report 48 hours after the radio link failure is detected.

[TS 36.331, clause 5.4.2.3 (TP1)]

If the UE is able to comply with the configuration included in the RRCConnectionReconfiguration message, the UE shall:

1> set the content of RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete message as follows:

2> if the UE has radio link failure or handover failure information available in VarRLF-Report and plmn-Identity stored in VarRLF-Report is equal to the RPLMN:

3> include rlf-InfoAvailable;

2> if the UE has logged measurements available for E-UTRA and plmn-Identity stored in VarLogMeasReport is equal to the RPLMN:

3> include the logMeasAvailable;

1> submit the RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete message to lower layers for transmission using the new configuration;

(1)

with { UE in E-UTRAN RRC_CONNECTED state with the Inter-RAT cdma2000 neighbour cell measurement information configured and the radio link failure information available in VarRLF-Report }

ensure that {

when { UE receives the UEInformationRequest message with rlf-ReportReq set to true and plmn-Identity stored in VarRLF-Report is equal to the RPLMN }

then { UE sends the UEInformationResponse message with CDMA2000 neighbour cell information (measResultsCDMA2000) included }

}

8.6.5.3.2 Conformance requirements

References: The conformance requirements covered in the present TC are specified in: TS 36.331, clause 5.3.7.4, 5.3.11.3 and 5.6.5.3.

[TS 36.331, clause 5.3.7.4]

If the procedure was initiated due to radio link failure or handover failure, the UE shall:

1> set the reestablishmentCellId in the VarRLF-Report to the global cell identity of the selected cell;

The UE shall set the contents of RRCConnectionReestablishmentRequest message as follows:

1> set the reestablishmentCause as follows:

2> else if the re-establishment procedure was initiated due to handover failure as specified in 5.3.5.6 (intra-LTE handover failure) or 5.4.3.5 (inter-RAT mobility from EUTRA failure):

3> set the reestablishmentCause to the value handoverFailure;

2> else:

3> set the reestablishmentCause to the value otherFailure;

The UE shall submit the RRCConnectionReestablishmentRequest message to lower layers for transmission.

[TS 36.331, clause 5.3.11.3]

The UE shall:

1> upon T310 expiry; or

1> upon random access problem indication from MAC while neither T300, T301, T304 nor T311 is running; or

1> upon indication from RLC that the maximum number of retransmissions has been reached:

2> consider radio link failure to be detected;

2> store the following radio link failure information in the VarRLF-Report by setting its fields as follows:

3> clear the information included in VarRLF-Report, if any;

3> set the plmn-Identity to the RPLMN;

3> set the measResultLastServCell to include the RSRP and RSRQ, if available, of the PCell based on measurements collected up to the moment the UE detected radio link failure;

3> set the measResultNeighCells to include the best measured cells, other than the PCell, ordered such that the best cell is listed first, and based on measurements collected up to the moment the UE detected radio link failure, and set its fields as follows;

4> if the UE was configured to perform measurement reporting for one or more neighbouring CDMA2000 frequencies, include the measResultsCDMA2000;

NOTE: The measured quantities are filtered by the L3 filter as configured in the mobility measurement configuration. The measurements are based on the time domain measurement resource restriction, if configured. Blacklisted cells are not required to be reported.

3> if detailed location information is available, set the content of the locationInfo as follows:

4> include the locationCoordinates;

4> include the horizontalVelocity, if available;

3> set the failedPCellId to the global cell identity, if available, and otherwise to the physical cell identity and carrier frequency of the PCell where radio link failure is detected;

3> if an RRCConnectionReconfiguration message including the mobilityControlInfo was received before the connection failure:

4> include previousPCellId and set it to the global cell identity of the PCell where the last RRCConnectionReconfiguration including the mobilityControlInfo message was received;

4> set the timeConnFailure to the elapsed time since reception of the last RRCConnectionReconfiguration message including the mobilityControlInfo;

3> set the connectionFailureType to rlf;

2> if AS security has not been activated:

3> perform the actions upon leaving RRC_CONNECTED as specified in 5.3.12, with release cause ‘other’;

2> else:

3> initiate the connection re-establishment procedure as specified in 5.3.7;

The UE may discard the radio link failure information, i.e. release the UE variable VarRLF-Report 48 hours after the radio link failure is detected.

[TS 36.331, clause 5.6.5.3]

Upon receiving the UEInformationRequest message, the UE shall:

1> if rlf-ReportReq is set to true and the UE has radio link failure information or handover failure information available in VarRLF-Report and plmn-Identity stored in VarRLF-Report is equal to the RPLMN, set the rlf-Report in the UEInformationResponse message to the value of rlf-Report in VarRLF-Report;

1> if the rlf-Report is included in UEInformationResponse:

2> discard the rlf-Report from VarRLF-Report upon successful delivery of the UEInformationResponse message confirmed by lower layers.

1> if the logMeasReport is included in the UEInformationResponse:

1> else:

2> submit the UEInformationResponse message to lower layers for transmission via SRB1;
