During CSFB based on PS handover, the UE is transferred from the E-UTRAN to the
UTRAN by performing a PS handover. It then initiates a CS service in the UTRAN.
The procedure is described as follows:
1. The UE sends the MME an NAS message Extended Service Request to
initiate a CS service.
2. The MME sends an S1-AP Request message to instruct the eNodeB to
initiate a CSFB procedure. If the MME supports the LAI-related feature, the
MME also delivers the LAI to the eNodeB.
3. The eNodeB determines whether to perform a blind handover based on the
UE capabilities, parameters settings, and algorithm policies.
4. The eNodeB initiates the preparation phase for a PS handover. If the
preparation is successful, the eNodeB instructs the UE to perform a handover.
5. After the handover, the UE may initiate a CS call establishment procedure
with an LAU or combined RAU/LAU procedure in the UTRAN.
6. The follow-up procedures are performed for the PS handover. These
procedures include data forwarding, path switching, and RAU. This step is
performed together with step 5.
During the flash CSFB procedure, the eNodeB receives a CS Fallback Indicator, and
then it sends an RRC Connection Release message to release the UE. The message
contains information about a target UTRAN frequency, as well as one or more
physical cell identities and their associated system information. In this way, the UE
can quickly access the target UTRAN without the need to perform the procedure
for acquiring system information of the target UTRAN cell. Then, the UE can
directly initiate a CS service in the UTRAN cell.
