Binding ID
Binding Identifier (Binding ID) is used to initialise the linkage between ALCAP and Application Part (RANAP, RNSAP, NBAP) identifiers. Binding Identifier can be used both in Radio Network Control plane Application Part protocols and in Transport Network Control Plane's ALCAP protocol.

Binding ID binds the Radio and Transport Network Control plane identifiers together.

The number of RRC connection access failures caused by a lack of radio interface synchronisation. The RRC connection access is considered a failure if the UE loses DL synchronization before sending RRC Connection Setup Complete message to RNC. A number of RRC connection access failures caused by the UU interface. When the RNC does not receive RRC_CONNECTION_COMPLETE from the UE A number of RRC connection access failures caused by RNC's internal reasons. (e.g. parameter mismatch, timer expiry).
