2 Cell Selection Criteria (Criterion S)

The cell selection criterion S is fulfilled when the following two inequalities are true:
Srxlev > 0 and Squal > 0
where
 Squal = Qqualmeas - Qqualmin
 Srxlev = Qrxlevmeas - Qrxlevmin - Pcompensation
Calculation factors in the equalities are described in Table 4-2.
Table 4-2 Calculation factors

Parameter Description

Squal Cell selection quality value (dB), applicable only for FDD cells.

Srxlev Cell selection RX level value (dBm)

Qqualmeas Measured cell quality value, applicable only for FDD cells.
The quality of the received signal expressed in the average CPICH Ec/No (dB) for FDD cells

Qrxlevmeas Measured cell RX level value

 CPICH RSCP for FDD cells (dBm)
 P-CCPCH RSCP for TDD cells (dBm)

Qqualmin Minimum required quality level specified by the Qqualmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter

Qrxlevmin Minimum required RX cell specified by the Qrxlevmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter
Pcompensation Max (MaxAllowedUlTxPower(BSC6900,BSC6910) - MaxUEPower, 0) (dB)
where
 MaxAllowedUlTxPower(BSC6900,BSC6910) is the maximum allowed UE UL TX power.
 MaxUEPower is the maximum RF output power of the UE (dBm).
MaxAllowedUlTxPower(BSC6900,BSC6910) is set by the RNC based on the network
coverage planning. When the maximum UE power is lower than the value of
MaxAllowedUlTxPower(BSC6900,BSC6910), the effective cell coverage is decided by
Pcompensation.
Qqualmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) and Qrxlevmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) can be specified in the ADD
UCELLSELRESEL or ADD UINTERFREQNCELL command.
 If InterNCellQualReqFlag(BSC6900,BSC6910) is set to TRUE, the values of
Qqualmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) and Qrxlevmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) specified in the ADD
UINTERFREQNCELL command will be broadcasted through SIB11.
 If InterNCellQualReqFlag(BSC6900,BSC6910) is set to FALSE, the values of
Qqualmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) and Qrxlevmin(BSC6900,BSC6910) specified in the ADD
UCELLSELRESEL command will be broadcasted through SIB3 and SIB4.
