LTE MOBILITY in connected mode:LTE to UTRAN
LTE TO UTRAN MOBILITY in connected
mode
• The aim of MOBILITY in connected mode is to enable UE move from an LTE
radio coverage to WCDMA radio coverage with an on-going packet data session
• The triggering condition is because of the LTE radio condition has degraded
below a pre-defined threshold and the neighboring WCDMA cell has become
better than a pre-defined threshold
• For UE in RRC Connected mode, there are two possibilities to go from LTE to
UTRAN : Redirection (may be enhanced) or PS HANDOVER
Redirection Information

Release: UE leaves EUTRAN Old Cell &

Triggers:

PS handover execution phase
• Once a Handover Command is received from MME, eNB will will stop timer
TS1relocprep and start timer with duration
PsHoToUtraTimersConf::tS1RelocOverallForPsHandoverToUtra and sends a
MOBILITYFromEutraCommand to UE with purpose set to ‘handover’ and
targetRAT-Type set to ‘utra’;
• If ActivationService::isUtraDataForwardingAllowed is set to TRUE, eNB will
start data forwarding each E-RAB listed in E-RABSubjecttoDataForwardingList
received in the Handover Command message from MME
• If UE Context Release Command is received from MME before the timer expires,
PS handover is successful; eNB will send a UE Context Release Complete to MME;
eNB will stop timer TS1relocoverall and release UE context and associated
resources
• If timer TS1relocoverall expires, eNB considers the UE to have lost radio
coverage and will trigger the release of all UE associated resources by sending
an UE Context Release Request to MME and release all UE associated resources
in eNB
