S1-MME
S1-MME (Control Plane)
Control interface between eNB and MME TS 24.301 NAS Protocols
MME and UE will exchange non-access stratum TS 36.413 S1-AP MME
signaling via eNB through this interface.
E.g.: if a UE performs a tracking area update the SCTP
TS 36.412
TRACKING AREA UPDATE REQUEST message IP
will be sent from UE to eNB and the eNB will eNB L1/L2 TS 36.411
forward the message via S1-MME to the MME.

User PDUs
The Cell
Smallest entity regarding mobility
When the UE is connected to the network, the MME will know the
UEs position on cell level
Cells are identified by the Cell Global Identification (CGI), at the
system level, and by the Physical Cell Identification (PCI), at the
physical layer
Deregistered
No location information in MME, no IP address or Default
Bearer
Registered
MME knows location at cell or tracking area level, Default
Bearer and IP address allocated for UE.
ECM Idle
No NAS connection between UE and MME, mobility is based on
tracking area and cell reselection, no E-RAB (S1 and Uu), but
EPS Default Bearer is still allocated (S5 / S8).
ECM Connected
NAS connection established, E-RAB (S1 and Uu) is allocated,
mobility based on handover a cell level.

RNC hides mobility from core network Core network sees every handover
Example:
Handover: Better cell algorithm, A3 case
Do handover towards better cell if it is better than
a3Offset=5dB for at least a3TimeToTrigger=1280ms

EPS bearer provides user plane connectivity between UE and PDN-GW
EPS carries user data between UE and PDN
Radio bearers provide connectivity across the air interface. Two types:
Signalling Radio Bearers (SRB) carry C-plane data (RRC and NAS messages) or
Data Radio Bearers (DRB) carry U-plane data (user data/traffic)

Bearer Management
EPS Bearer
There is always at least one EPS Bearer (default bearer) to provide always-on IP
connectivity:
Created during the attach procedure
It does not mean that there is a Data Radio Bearer established all the time
All user plane data transferred with the same EPS bearer has the same QoS
Conversational Voice cannot be carried with just with non GBR bearers Requires two
bearers:
QCI (QoS Class Identifier)=1 for user data
QCI=5 for IMS signalling
