    SRNC/DRNC

    SRNC and DRNC are on a per connection basis between a UE and the UTRAN

    The SRNC handles the connection to one UE, and may borrow radio resources of a certain cell

    from the DRNC

    Drift RNCs support the Serving RNC by providing radio resources

    A UE in connection state has at least one and only one SRNC, but can has 0 or multiple DRNCs

    Idle Mode The UE has no relation to UTRAN, only to CN. For data transfer, asignalling connection has to be established.

    UE camps on a cell

    It enables the UE to receive system information from the PLMN

    When registered and if the UE wishes to establish an RRC connection, it can do

    this by initially accessing the network on the control channel of the cell onwhich it is camped

    UE can receive "paging" message from control channels of the cell.

    It enables the UE to receive cell broadcast services.

    The idle mode tasks can be subdivided into three processes:

    PLMN selection and reselection;

    Cell selection and reselection;

    Location registration.

    Connected Mode

    When at least one signalling connection exists, the UE is inconnected mode and there is normally an RRC connection between

    UE and UTRAN. The UE position can be known on different levels:

    UTRAN Registration Area (URA) level

    The UE position is known on URA level. The URA is a set of cellsCell level

    The UE position is known on cell level. Different transport channel types

    can be used for data transfer:

    Common transport channels (RACH / FACH, DSCH, CPCH)

    Dedicated transport channels (DCH)

    Connected Mode

    Cell-FACH

    In active state

    Few data to be transmitted both in uplink and in downlink.

    There is no need to allocate dedicated channel for this UE.

    Downlink uses FACH and uplink uses RACH.

    UE need to monitor the FACH for its relative information.

    UTRAN knows which cell UE is in.

    Connected Mode

    Cell-PCH

    No data to be transmitted or received.

    Monitor PICH, to receive its paging.

    lower the power consumption of UE.

    UTRAN knows which cell UE is in.

    UTRAN have to update cell information of UE when UE

    roams to another cell

    Connected Mode

    URA-PCH

    No data to be transmitted or received.

    Monitor PICH.

    UTRAN only knows which URA (UTRAN Registration Area,which consists of multiple cells) that UE is in.

    UTRAN updates UE information only after UE has roamed

    to other URA.

    A better way to reduce the resource occupancy and

    signaling transmission

    Paging Caused by CN

    The paging information type which is sent by UTRANis decided by UE mode.

    If UE is in the CELL_FACH or CELL_DCH UTRAN

    send paging type 2. In other modes, the paginginformation is type 1 and UE can use DTX method to

    detecting PICH.

    Introduction of Call Process

    In WCDMA system, a call process includes the followingbasic signaling flows:

    RRC connection flow

    Iu interface signaling flow

    Authentication flow (optional)Security flow (optional)

    RAB establish flow

    Call proceeding

    NAS signaling before correlative bearer releaseCorrelative bearer release

    RRC Connection Establishment

    RRC Connection EstablishmentFlow (DCH)

    When UE is in IDLE mode and the NAS of UE request the signaling connection, UE will send a RRC Connection Request. Each UE only can have on RRC Connection. The main function is to configure the signaling channel of UTRAN.

    Iu Interface SignalingConnection Establish

    In Iu interface, radio network layer reports the RANAPinformation and NAS information. NAS information is takenas directed message in RANAP information.

    And the process of Iu signaling connection is to establishthe Iu interface connection of SCCP between RNC and CN.
