– Measurement Configuration
S1 Handover
• 2. RRC Measurement Report
Leve event A3:
Mn+cellIndividualOffsetEUtran+hysteresisA3<Ms+a3Offset
– MME will not decode the Source to Target Transparent Container, but send it
directly to target eNB.
S1 Handover
• 5. S10 Forward Relocation Request
– Source MME identifies target MME (MME Selection Function)
– Source MME sends S10 Forward Relocation Request
• MME UE context
• Source to Target Transparent Container
• target eNB ID
• 6. S11 Create Session Req/Res
– Target MME checks if old S-GW can be used
• If old S-GW can not be used
– Target MME will select S-GW
– Orders allocation of the resources in target S-GW
– Triggers GTP tunnel setup between P-GW and target S-GW
• 7. S1 Handover Request
– Once S-GW resources are ordered and GTP Tunnel is set up,
S1 Handover Request message is sent to target eNB.

# A5 Functionality
# Function Diagram
IFHO FUNCTIONALITY (A5)
The IFHO functionality depends primarily on 6 parameters,
a5Threshold1Rsrp: This determines the threshold below which the serving cell has to be
a5Threshold2Rsrp: This determines the threshold above which the target cell has to be
a5Threshold1RsrpAnrDelta: This is added to a5Threshold1Rsrp
a5Threshold2RsrpAnrDelta: This is subtracted from a5Threshold2Rsrp
a2ThresholdRsrpPrim: Determines the level after which A5 for IFHO should be triggered
a1ThresholdRsrpPrim: Determines if the UE has entered into good RF again for the same event is triggered, all a2/a5
events will be cancelled
In order to understand IFHO lets consider the scenario below with settings source cell,
IFHO FUNCTIONALITY (A5)
A-At this Point the Scource gets below
A5anr1 and target gets better than
a5anr2-hence A5 anr will be triggered.
ANR feature add neib in the time b/w
PointA and Point C.
B- At this Point the scource gets below
A5th1 and target get better than a5th2-A5
A B condition is met,but IFHO wont happen
C D since A2 is not yet triggered.
C-At this point A2 is triggered Since the
A5 ANR is A2 is A5 IFHO is
scource falls below A2thPrim
trggered trigger triggered
ed
D-At this point A5 IFHO takes place since
A2 condition is met as well as A5 th are
also being met.
Note: If a1threshold is triggered between A2 and A5 trigger (between C and D), then it cancels the UE will
not be measuring other frequencies anymore. So A1 threshold should be chosen 6-the A2 threshold, in
order to avoid this.
IRAT FUNCTIONALITY B2 Functionality
Function Diagram
The IRAT functionality depends primarily on 4 parameters (assuming WC disabled),
b2Threshold1Rsrp: This determines the threshold below which the serving LTE cell has t
b2Threshold2RscpUtra: This determines the threshold above which the target UMTS cell
a2ThresholdRsrpPrim: Determines the level after which B2 for IRAT should be triggered
a1ThresholdRsrpPrim: Determines if the UE has entered into good RF again for the sam even is triggered, all a2/b2
events will be cancelled
In order to understand IRAT lets consider the scenario below with settings source cell,
IRAT FUNCTIONALITY (B2)
Note: If a1threshold is triggered between A2 and B2 trigger, then it cancels the A2 report and th
measuring other UMTS frequencies anymore. So A1 threshold should be chosen 6-7 dB higher threshold, in
order to avoid this. Same applies to a1thresholdsec.

Handover Execution Failures:-
# Poor RF conditions
# Target cell Radion has Deaf(UL N/I=-121 or-122)dBm.

HO_Execution Failure due to Radio Deaf:-
Note: Cell having very low N/I(-121)dBm. Probably Radio is deaf and Call is not
able to established on Target cell.
