UE Working Modes and states

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

a signalling 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 on which 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.

UE Working Modes and states

Connected Mode (Cell-DCH, Cell-FACH, Cell-PCH, URA-PC

H) When at least one signalling connection exists, the UE is in

connected 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 cells

Cell 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)

UE Working Modes and states

Cell-DCH In active state

Communicating via its dedicated channels

UTRAN knows which cell UE is in.

Cell-FACH and Cell-PCH State

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.

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

URA-PCH State

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 update UE information only after UE has roamed to

other URA.

A better way to lower the resource occupancy and signaling

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 ra

dio resources of a certain cell from the CRNC

Drift RNSs support the Serving RNS by providing radio resources

A UE in connection state has at least one and only one SRNC, but

can has 0 or multiple DRNCs

CRNC

The CRNC owns the radio resources of a cell

Dynamical control of power for dedicated channels, within

limits admitted by CRNC, is done by the SRNC.

Scheduling of data for dedicated channels is done by the

SRNC, while for common channels it is done by the CRNC

Soft Handover

Macro diversity is a operation state in which a User

Equipment simultaneously has radio links with two or more

UTRAN access points. The aim is to improve quality of the

radio connection or provide seamless connection.

Active Set is a set of radio links simultaneously involved in a

specific communication service between an UE and a

UTRAN access point.

Forward Handover

Forward Handover, including CELL UPDATE and URA UPDATE, is

originated by UE. URA UPDATE procedure is only used for UE under

URA_PCH state to process URA reselection, and to check if RRC

connection is right.

For UE under CELL_FACH and CELL_PCH state cell reselection needed

In specific SA(Service Area), Timer T305 timed out (this timer is defined in

system broadcast message)

For UE under CELL_PCH and URA_PCH state transfer data on up link needed (enter CELL_FACH state)

upon receiving paging message on PCCH, originate cell update

CELL UPDATE process can be used to re-establish unrecoverable errors of

RLC entity( losing connection) , and to monitor RRC connection state.
