What is Idle Mode?
1. OFF Mode2. IDLE MODE3. CONNECTED MODE
UE in IDLE MODE has the following properties :
• UE is Powered ON , while it doesn't have connection to the Radio Network
• UE is synchronized with Radio Network and can read broadcast information , Accordingly UE can access the Network request services ., g y q
• UE is registered on the network , updating Network with its LAC , Accordingly UE becomes reachable by the network

Accordingly UE becomes reachable by the network
Services Types in Idle Mode
• Normal Service• When the UE select accepted level cell in its HPLMN
• Limited Service• When the UE didn’t find any accepted level cells at its home PLMN it selects any accepted level cell at any h PLMNother PLMN
• Operator reserved services• The operator can reserve any cell for testing only and this through two parameters cell reserved and Access classNbarred

PLMN Selection
• PLMN SelectionPLMN Selection – What is it ? And When it happens ? What are the types of PLMN selectiontypes of PLMN selection
• PLMN Selection is the process in which the UE decide which PLMN it should register in and this process happens when the Mobile turned on or when the mobile returned back from limiting service
– Automatic PLMN selectionAutomatic PLMN selection
– Manual PLMN selection

Automatic PLMN selection
• When the mobile powered onWhen the mobile powered on • The mobile uses information about the last registered PLMN (Freq, the stored neighbors before off)
• Mobile search the strongest signal cells and read its system information to get (MCC and MNC)
If h h ll i d h bil d h• If the chosen cell is accepted the mobile try to do the registration
• If the last chosen cell not available or there is no storedIf the last chosen cell not available or there is no stored info in the mobile USIM then the mobile might select any accepted PLMN automatically or manually
Copy Rights © LEGEND Co. 2010
• In the automatic selection if no last register PLMN gexists or available the Mobile will select the PLMN that is available and allowed as follow
HPLMN if not previously selected due to RAT– HPLMN if not previously selected due to RAT
– Each PLMN in User controlled PLMNs list in the USIM, in order of priority
h i ll d li i h S i– Each PLMN in operator controlled PLMN list in the USIM, in order of priority
– Other PLMNs according to the high quality criteria randomly h i i CPICH RSCP i 95dBthe minimum CPICH RSCP power is ‐95dBm
– Other PLMNs that don’t fulfill high quality criteria

Paging
• Is the process through it the CN inform the UE there is a service request or RAN inform all the UEs that the System information has been updated also to initiate the channel switch from URA‐PCH to Cell‐FACH state
• Paging occurs in the following states – Idle
– URA‐PCH
– Cell‐FACH

• Paging in Idle mode and URA‐PCH – PICH and S‐CCPCH are used to page the UE
• PICH used to tell the UE when to read S‐CCPCH

Supervision in Cell‐FACH and URA‐PCHURA PCH
• In CELL FACH state, supervision is provided by monitoring _ , p p y gperiodic Cell Update messages sent by the UE. The timer cchWaitCuT is started whenever the UE enters the CELL FACH state or upon transmission of a Cell UpdateCELL_FACH state, or upon transmission of a Cell Update CONFIRM message to the UE. The timer is stopped if the UE enters CELL_DCH state and is reset to zero (but not stopped) upon receipt of a Cell Update from the UE. Upon expiry of the timer, the overall release of the connection shall be triggered. The time set on cchWaitCuT is longer thang
the one set on timer t305. The timer t305 indicates how often the UE has to send a Cell Update message.

Outer Loop Power control
• The outer loop power control algorithm performed for DL in p p g pthe UE and for the UL in the RNC
• The Main idea behind the outer loop power control is to set SIR t tproper SIR target
• SIR target value change according to blerQualitytargetDl
• SIR target value should be between SIR Max 173 (17 3 dB) andSIR target value should be between SIR Max 173 (17.3 dB) and SIR min ‐82(‐8.2 dB)
• UL outer loop power control could be either jump regulator or constant step regulator by ulOuterLoopRegulator parameter

SIRtarget= SIRtarget + ulSirStep(-x/(z*UPDOWNSTEPRATIO)+Y/Z)
Where: •ulSirStep = 0 to 50 in 0.1 step default 10 (1 dB)•X = Number of Transport blocks that have CRC OK•Z= Total Number of received Transport blocks •Y= Number of transport blocks that have CRC NG•UPDOWNSTEPRATIO= (1/blerQualityTargetUL * 0.5) -1 default value is 199value is 199 •blerQualityTargetUL = -63 to 0 default is -2 (0.01)

The SRNC will Update the SIR target value for the UL in resolution of 0.1 dB to prevent excessive Iub signaling.

Step Regulator
If ulOuterLoopRegulator set to 0 the Step regulator will work d f l i f ll iIdea of step regulator is as following :
•The SIR target should increased by “ulSirStep” when one NG CRC have been Received • And decreased by “ulSirStep” if number of good CRC equal to y p g q
