In LTE system, RRC connection reconfiguration message is used to configure UE me

asurement reporting. It replaces the measurement control message used in the UMT
S system. The stands defines 5 intra-system and 2 inter-system measurement repor
ting events as described below.
LTE Events A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5 are based upon either RSRP or RSRQ messages. Pl
s. refer LTE RSRP vs RSRQ for more details. Inter-system LTE events B1 and B2 ar
e based upon CPICH RSCP or CPICH Ec/Io for UMTS system, RSSI for GSM and pilot s
trength for CDMA2000.
The criteria for triggering and subsequently cancelling each event are evaluated
after layer-3 filtering has been applied. The criteria for each event must be s
atisfied during at least the time to trigger. The time to trigger can be configu
red independently fpr each reporting event. The values are as follows:
{0,40,64,80,100,128,160,256,320,480,512,640,1024,1280}
Layer-3 filtering is applied prior to evaluate whether or not any measurement re
porting events have been triggered.
Fn = (1-a) * Fn-1 + (a * MEASn)
Fn = updated filtered measurement result
Fn-1 = previous filtered measurement result
a = (1/2)k/4 , where k is appropriate filter coefficient
MEASn = latest measurement result received from PHYSICAL layer
Filter coefficient can be configured independently for LTE RSRP, LTE RSRQ, UMTS
CPICH RSCP, UMTS CPICH Ec/Io and GSM RSSI.
LTE Event A1
The LTE Event A1 is triggered when the serving cell becomes better than a thresh
old. The event is triggered when the following condition is true:
MEAsserv - Hyst > Threshold
Triggering of the event is subsequently cancelled when the following condition i
s true:
MEAsserv + Hyst < Threshold
The hysteresis can be configured with a value between 0 and 30 dB.
Event A2
The LTE Event A2 is triggered when the serving cell becomes worse than a thresho
ld. The event is triggered when the following condition is true:
MEAsserv + Hyst < Threshold
Triggering of the event is subsequently cancelled when the following condition i
s true.
MEAsserv - Hyst > Threshold
The hysteresis can be configured with a value between 0 and 30 dB.
Event A3
The LTE Event A3 is triggered when a neighbouring cell becomes better than the s
erving cell by an offset. The offset can be either positive or negative. The eve
nt is triggered when the following condition is true:
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Oneigh,cell - Hyst > MEASserv + Oserv,freq + Oserv,cel
l + Offset
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Oneigh,cell + Hyst < MEASserv + Oserv,freq + Oserv,cel
l + Offset
Event A4
The LTE Event A4 is triggered when a neighbouring cell becomes better than a thr
eshold.
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Oneigh,cell - Hyst > Threshold
Triggering of the event is subsequently cancelled when the following condition i
s true:
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Oneigh,cell + Hyst <Threshold
Event A5
LTE Event A5 is triggered when the serving cell becomes worse than threshold-1 w
hile a neighbouring cell becomes better than threshold-2. The event is triggered
when both of the following consitions are true:
MEASserv + Hyst < Threshold-1
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Oneigh,cell - Hyst >Threshold-2
Triggering of the event is subsequently cancelled when either of the following c
onditions are true:
MEASserv - Hyst > Threshold-1
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Oneigh,cell + Hyst <Threshold-2
LTE Event B1
The LTE Event B1 is triggered when a neighbouring inter-system cell becomes bett
er than a threshold. The event is triggered when the following condition is true
:
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq - Hyst > Threshold
Triggering of the event is subsequently cancelled when the following condition i
s true:
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Hyst < Threshold
Event B2
The LTE Event B2 is triggered when the serving cell becomes worse than threshold
-1 while a neighbouring inter-system cell becomes better than threshold-2. The e
vent is triggered when both of the following conditions are true:
MEASserv + Hyst < Threshold-1
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq - Hyst > Threshold-2
Triggering of the event is subsequently cancelled when either of the following c
onditions are true:
MEASserv - Hyst > Threshold-1
MEASneigh + Oneigh,freq + Hyst < Threshold-2
