Message

1-2

Generic test procedure for MT release of speech call, steps 1-2, as defined in annex A.8 of TS 34.229-5 [47] are performed.

3

The SS transmits an RRCReconfiguration message and an PDU SESSION MODIFICATION COMMAND

<–

NR RRC: RRCReconfiguration
5GMM: DL NAS TRANSPORT
5GSM: PDU SESSION MODIFICATION COMMAND

EXCEPTION: Steps 4 and 5 can occur in any order.

4

The UE transmits an RRCReconfigurationComplete message

–>

NR RRC: RRCReconfigurationComplete

5

Check: Does the UE transmit a ULInformationTransfer message, an UL NAS TRANSPORT message and an PDU SESSION MODIFICATION COMPLETE message?

–>

NR RRC: ULInformationTransfer

5GMM: UL NAS TRANSPORT

5GSM: PDU SESSION MODIFICATION COMPLETE
