References: The conformance requirements covered in the present TC are specified in: TS 36.306, clause 4.3.13.2; TS 36.331, clauses 5.3.3.6 and 5.6.5.3. Unless otherwise stated these are Rel-11 requirements.
[TS 36.306, clause 4.3.13.2]
This parameter defines whether the UE is equipped with a standalone GNSS receiver that may be used to provide detailed location information in RRC measurement report and logged measurements in RRC_IDLE.
[TS 36.331, clause 5.3.3.6]
The UE shall:
1> if timer T300 expires:
2> reset MAC, release the MAC configuration and re-establish RLC for all RBs that are established;
2> store the following connection establishment failure information in the VarConnEstFailReport by setting its fields as follows:
3> clear the information included in VarConnEstFailReport, if any;
3> set the plmn-Identity to the PLMN selected by upper layers (see TS 23.122 [11], TS 24.301 [35]) from the PLMN(s) included in the plmn-IdentityList in SystemInformationBlockType1;
3> set the failedCellId to the global cell identity of the cell where connection establishment failure is detected;
3> set the measResultFailedCell to include the RSRP and RSRQ, if available, of the cell where connection establishment failure is detected and based on measurements collected up to the moment the UE detected the failure;
3> if available, set the measResultNeighCells, in order of decreasing ranking-criterion as used for cell re-selection, to include neighbouring cell measurements for at most the following number of neighbouring cells: 6 intra-frequency and 3 inter-frequency neighbours per frequency as well as 3 inter-RAT neighbours, per frequency/ set of frequencies (GERAN) per RAT and according to the following:
4> for each neighbour cell included, include the optional fields that are available;
NOTE: The UE includes the latest results of the available measurements as used for cell reselection evaluation, which are performed in accordance with the performance requirements as specified in TS 36.133 [16].
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 numberOfPreamblesSent to indicate the number of preambles sent by MAC for the failed random access procedure;
3> set contentionDetected to indicate whether contention resolution was not successful as specified in TS 36.321 [6] for at least one of the transmitted preambles for the failed random access procedure;
3> set maxTxPowerReached to indicate whether or not the maximum power level was used for the last transmitted preamble, see TS 36.321 [6];
2> inform upper layers about the failure to establish the RRC connection, upon which the procedure ends;
The UE may discard the connection establishment failure information, i.e. release the UE variable VarConnEstFailReport, 48 hours after the failure is detected, upon power off or upon detach.
[TS 36.331, clause 5.6.5.3]
Upon receiving the UEInformationRequest message, the UE shall:
…
1> if connEstFailReportReq is set to true and the UE has connection establishment failure information in VarConnEstFailReport and if the RPLMN is equal to plmn-Identity stored in VarConnEstFailReport:
2> set timeSinceFailure in VarConnEstFailReport to the time that elapsed since the last connection establishment failure in E-UTRA;
2> set the connEstFailReport in the UEInformationResponse message to the value of connEstFailReport in VarConnEstFailReport;
2> set the connEstFailReport in the UEInformationResponse message to the value of connEstFailReport in VarConnEstFailReport;

2> reset MAC, release the MAC configuration and re-establish RLC for all RBs that are established;
2> store the following connection establishment failure information in the VarConnEstFailReport by setting its fields as follows:
3> clear the information included in VarConnEstFailReport, if any;
3> set the plmn-Identity to the PLMN selected by upper layers (see TS 23.122 [11], TS 24.301 [35]) from the PLMN(s) included in the plmn-IdentityList in SystemInformationBlockType1;
3> set the failedCellId to the global cell identity of the cell where connection establishment failure is detected;
3> set the measResultFailedCell to include the RSRP and RSRQ, if available, of the cell where connection establishment failure is detected and based on measurements collected up to the moment the UE detected the failure;
3> if available, set the measResultNeighCells, in order of decreasing ranking-criterion as used for cell re-selection, to include neighbouring cell measurements for at most the following number of neighbouring cells: 6 intra-frequency and 3 inter-frequency neighbours per frequency as well as 3 inter-RAT neighbours, per frequency/ set of frequencies (GERAN) per RAT and according to the following:
4> for each neighbour cell included, include the optional fields that are available;
NOTE: The UE includes the latest results of the available measurements as used for cell reselection evaluation, which are performed in accordance with the performance requirements as specified in TS 36.133 [16].
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 numberOfPreamblesSent to indicate the number of preambles sent by MAC for the failed random access procedure;
3> set contentionDetected to indicate whether contention resolution was not successful as specified in TS 36.321 [6] for at least one of the transmitted preambles for the failed random access procedure;
3> set maxTxPowerReached to indicate whether or not the maximum power level was used for the last transmitted preamble, see TS 36.321 [6];
2> inform upper layers about the failure to establish the RRC connection, upon which the procedure ends;
The UE may discard the connection establishment failure information, i.e. release the UE variable VarConnEstFailReport, 48 hours after the failure is detected, upon power off or upon detach.
[TS 36.331, clause 5.6.5.3]
Upon receiving the UEInformationRequest message, the UE shall:
…
1> if connEstFailReportReq is set to true and the UE has connection establishment failure information in VarConnEstFailReport and if the RPLMN is equal to plmn-Identity stored in VarConnEstFailReport:
2> set timeSinceFailure in VarConnEstFailReport to the time that elapsed since the last connection establishment failure in E-UTRA;
2> set the connEstFailReport in the UEInformationResponse message to the value of connEstFailReport in VarConnEstFailReport;
2> discard the connEstFailReport from VarConnEstFailReport 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;
