Table 12.56.2: Measurement control parameters description information element details

Measurement_Control_E-UTRAN (1 bit field)
This field controls the measurement of E-UTRAN cells for the specified EARFCNs indicated by the E-UTRAN_FREQUENCY_INDEX values, as defined in 3GPP TS 45.008. If this field is not present, all EARFCNs in the E-UTRAN Neighbour Cell list shall behave according to the behaviour controlled by the Qsearch_P_E-UTRAN.

All E-UTRAN frequency indices received in this instance of the information element shall take the value of parameter Measurement_Control_E-UTRAN. All other E-UTRAN frequency indices in the E-UTRAN Neighbour Cell list shall take the opposite value to that of the received Measurement_Control_E-UTRAN.

E-UTRAN_FREQUENCY_INDEX (3 bit field)
This field is described in sub-clause 12.53.

Measurement_Control_UTRAN (1 bit field)
This field controls the measurement of UTRAN cells for the specified UARFCNs indicated by the UTRAN_FREQUENCY_INDEX values, as defined in 3GPP TS 45.008. If this field is not present, all UARFCNs in 3G Neighbour Cell list shall behave according to the behaviour controlled by the Qsearch_P.

All UTRAN frequency indices received in this instance of the information element shall take the value of parameter Measurement_Control_UTRAN. All other UTRAN frequency indices in the 3G Neighbour Cell list shall take the opposite value to that of the received Measurement_Control_UTRAN.

UTRAN_FREQUENCY_INDEX (5 bit field)
This field is described in sub-clause 12.52.
