Cell Search
UE does not have UTRAN carrier information
n order to find a suitable cell to stay, UE will scan all the
frequencies in UTRAN. n each carrier, UE just need to find a
cell with best signal
UE has UTRAN carrier information
UE will try whether the original cell is suitable to stay. f not, UE
still need to scan all the frequencies about UTRAN in order to
find a suitable cell in PLMN
Typical scenario of first occasion is the first time a new UE is put into use.
The second occasion is very common.

Cell Search
Slot synchronization
Frame synchronization and
code-group identification
Primary Scrambling code
identification
Step 1: Slot synchronization
During the first step of the cell search procedure the UE uses the primary synchronisation
code (PSC) to acquire slot synchronisation to a cell.
Step 2: Frame synchronization and code-group identification
During the second step of the cell search procedure, the UE uses the secondary
synchronisation code (SSC) to find frame synchronisation and identify the code group of the
cell found in the first step.
Step 3: Primary Scrambling code identification:
During the last step of the cell search procedure, the UE determines the exact primary
scrambling code used by the found cell. The primary scrambling code is typically identified
through symbol-by-symbol correlation over the CPCH with all codes within the code group
identified in the second step.
f the UE has received information about which scrambling codes to search for, steps 2 and 3
above can be simplified.

N-6
PLMN Selection
UE shall maintain a list of allowed PLMN types. n the
PLMN list, the UE arranges available PLMNs by priorities.
When selecting a PLMN, it searches the PLMNs from the
high priority to the low.
The UE selects a PLMN from HPLMNs or VPLMNs.
UE can get the system information from PCCPCH, and the PLMN information is transmitted in
MB of PCCPCH
After getting the MB, UE can judge weather the current PLMN is the right one. f so, UE will
get the SB scheduling information from the MB; if not, UE will search another carrier, do this
procedure again

Structure of System nformation
System information is organized as a tree, including:
MB (Master nformation Block )
SB (Scheduling Block )
SB (System nformation Block )
System information is used for the network to broadcast network information to UEs camping
on a cell so as to control the behavior of UEs.
MB
When selecting a new cell, the UE reads the MB. The UE may locate the MB by
predefined scheduling information. The Es in the MB includes MB value tag, PLMN
type, PLMN identity, reference and scheduling information for a number of SBs in a
cell or one or two SBs in a cell.
SB
Scheduling Block (SB) gives reference and scheduling information to other SBs. The
scheduling information of a SB may be included in only one of MB and SB.
SB
System nformation Block (SB) contains actual system information. t consists of
system information elements (Es) with the same purpose.
Scheduling information for a system information block may only be included in either the
master information block or one of the scheduling blocks.

Cell Selection
When the PLMN is selected and the UE is in idle mode, the
UE starts to select a cell to camp on and to obtain services.
There are four states involved in cell selection:
Camped normally
Any cell selection
Camped on any cell
Connected mode
Camped normally: The cell that UE camps on is called the suitable cell. n this state, the UE
obtains normal service.
Any cell selection: n this state, the UE shall attempt to find an acceptable cell of an any PLMN
to camp on, trying all RATs that are supported by the UE and searching first for a high quality
cell
Camped on any cell: The cell that UE camps on is called the acceptable cell. n this state the
UE obtains limited service. The UE shall regularly attempt to find a suitable cell of the selected
PLMN, trying all RATs that are supported by the UE.
Connected mode: When returning to idle mode, the UE shall use the procedure Cell selection
when leaving connected mode in order to find a suitable cell to camp on and enter state
Camped normally. f no suitable cell is found in cell reselection evaluation process, the UE
enters the state Any cell selection.

Cell Selection (Cont.)
Two types of cell selection:
nitial cell selection
f no cell information is stored for the PLMN, the UE starts this
procedure.
Stored information cell selection
f cell information is stored for the PLMN, the UE starts this
procedure.
nitial cell selection: f no cell information is stored for the PLMN, the UE starts the initial cell
selection. For this procedure, the UE need not know in advance which Radio Frequency (RF)
channels are UTRA bearers. The UE scans all RF channels in the UTRA band according to its
capabilities to find a suitable cell of the selected PLMN. On each carrier, the UE need only
search for the strongest cell. Once a suitable cell is found, this cell shall be selected.
Stored information cell selection: For this procedure, the UE need know the central frequency
information and other optional cell parameters that are obtained from the measurement control
information received before, such as scrambling codes. After this procedure is started, the UE
selects a suitable cell if it finds one. Otherwise, the "nitial cell selection" procedure is triggered.

Criterion S is used by the UE to judge whether the cell is
suitable to camped on.
Criterion S : Srxlev > 0 & Squal > 0, where:
f the pilot strength and quality of one cell meet S criteria, UE will stay in this cell and get other
system information. Then, UE will initiate a location update registration process.
f the cell doesn't satisfy S criteria, UE will get adjacent cells information from SB11. Then, UE
will judge weather these cells satisfy S criteria. f the adjacent cell is suitable, UE will stay in
the adjacent cell.
f no cell satisfies S criteria, UE will take the area as dead zone and continue the PLMN
selection and reselection procedure.

Cell Reselection
After selecting a cell and camping on it, the UE periodically
searches for a better cell according to the cell reselection
criteria. f finding such a cell, the UE selects this cell to
camp on.
UE should monitor the quality of current cell and neighbor cells in order to camp on the better
cell to initiate service. The better cell is the most suitable one for the UE to camp on and obtain
services. The QoS of this cell is not necessarily more satisfying.

Paging nitiation
CN initiated paging
Establish a signaling connection
UTRAN initiated paging
Trigger the cell update procedure
Trigger reading of updated system information
For CN originated paging:
n order to request UTRAN connect to UE, CN initiates the paging procedure,
transmits paging message to the UTRAN through u interface, and UTRAN transmits
the paging message from CN to UE through the paging procedure on Uu interface,
which will make the UE initiate a signaling connection setup process with the CN.
For UTRAN originated paging:
When the cell system message is updated: When system messages change, the
UTRAN will trigger paging process in order to inform UE in the idle, CELL_PCH or
URA_PCH state to carry out the system message update, so that the UE can read the
updated system message.
UE state transition: n order to trigger UE in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state to
carry out state transition (for example, transition to the CELL_FACH state), the
UTRAN will perform a paging process. Meanwhile, the UE will initiate a cell update or
URA update process, as a reply to the paging.

performs a cell update procedure to transit state to CELL_FACH.
As shown in the above figure, the CN initiates paging in a location area (LA), which is covered
by two RNCs. After receiving a paging message, the RNC searches all the cells corresponding
to the LA, and then calculates the paging time, at which it will send the PAGNG TYPE 1
message to these cells through the PCCH.

DRX Procedure
UE receives the paging indicator on PCH periodically, that
is the Discontinuous Reception (DRX)
The value for the DRX paging cycle length is determined as
follows: :
DRX Cycle Length (2^K)PBP frames
n idle mode, the UE can monitor the paging in two modes: one is to decode SCCPCH directly
every 10ms, the other is to decode the PCH periodically. The second one is the DRX, which is
Discontinuous Reception Mechanism.
The paging period formula:
DRX Cycle Length (2^K)*PBP frames
K is the "CN domain specific DRX cycle length coefficient, which is broadcasted in
SB1. The typical value is 6.
PBP is paging block period, which is 1 for FDD mode
The paging period should be 640ms if K is 6
Course Name
N-44
DRX Procedure (Cont.)
Through DRX, UE only listens to PCH at certain predefined
time. And UE will read the paging information on SCCPCH if
the paging indicator is 1.
The value of the Paging Occasion is determined as follows:
Paging Occasion (CELL SFN) =
{(MS mod M) mod (DRX cycle length div PBP)} * PBP
+ n * DRX cycle length + Frame Offset
Paging SFN formula:
Paging Occasion (CELL SFN) = {(IMSI mod M) mod (DRX cycle length div PBP)}
*PBP + n *DRX cycle length + Frame Offset
n =0, 1, 2..and the requirement is the calculated CELL SFN must be below its
maximum value 4096
Frame Offset is 0 for FDD mode
M is the number of SCCPCH which carries PCH, and the typical value is 1
The formula cloud be simplified as: SFN = IMSI mod (2^K) + n * (2^K)

Two Working Mode of UE
dle mode
After turning on, UE will stay in idle mode
Connected mode
UE will switch to connected mode which could be CELL_FACH
state or CELL_DCH state from the idle mode
After releasing RRC connection, UE will switch to the idle
mode from the connected mode
The most important difference between idle mode and connected mode is whether UE has
RRC connection with UTRAN or not.
n idle mode, UE will be identified by MS, TMS or PTMS and so on.
n connected mode, UE will be identified by URNT (UTRAN Radio Network Temporary
dentity), which is the D of one RRC connection.

Access Service Class
The PRACH resources can be classified into several ASCs,
so as to provide RACH applications with different priorities.
For Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) mode, the PRACH resources include access timeslots
and preamble signatures, which can be classified into several ASCs, so as to provide RACH
applications with different priorities.
The ASCs range from 0 to 7, and the quantity of ASCs is 8. "0" indicates the highest priority
and "7" indicates the lowest priority.
The system will assign random access sub-channels and signatures according to the ASC
(Access Service Class ) of UE.
