Introduction :
CSFB
If the CSFB user contains IE “CSFB Indication” in RRC Connection Request, RNC will send the routing
area update message to the CN only after it receives a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message or
after "Delayed Routing Area Update Timer for CSFB UEs" expires .
Network performance:
The interruption time for PS service will be longer.
Activation:
SET URRCTRLSWITCH: ImprovementSwitch=CSFB_UE_DELAY_RAU_SWITCH-1;
SET USTATETIMER: CSFBUeDelayRAUTimer=5;
Gain effect:
CSFB delay will be improved about 100ms.
Optimization2-Improvement in 3G-Fast
Radio Bearer Setup for single CS RAB
 Introduction :
The RB setup message does not include the activation time. The UE activates the new configuration
immediately after receiving the RB setup message.
Network performance:
None.
Activation:
ADD/MOD UCELLCONNALGOPARA:CellId=XXX,CellConnAlgoSwitch=SINGLE_CS_RAB_FAST_RB_SETUP_SWITCH-1;
SET URRCTRLSWITCH: OptimizationSwitch=RB_SETUP_CIPHER_TIME_ADJ_SWITCH-1;
Gain effect:
CS call setup delay will be improved about 300ms.

Optimization3-Improvement in 3G-RB
SETUP message Optimization
 Introduction :
1. If the RRC SETUP REQ message has contained the IE "RB mapping info", the RRC RB SETUP
message does not need to contain the IE, which shortens the transmission delay of the RRC RB SETUP
message.
2.When the content of the sub-IE "tfs-SignallingMode" in the IE "DL-AddReconfTransChInformation" is the

same as that of the sub-IE "transportFormatSet" in the IE "UL-AddReconfTransChInformation", the sub-IE
"tfs-SignallingMode" can be defined as "SameAsULTrCH", which reduces the sizes of the RRC RB
SETUP.
Network performance:

None.
Activation:

SET UCORRMPARA: PerfEnhanceSwitch3=PERFENH_RB_MAPPING_OPT_SWITCH-1&PERFENH_DCH_TRCH_OPT_SWITCH-1;
SET URRCTRLSWITCH：ImprovementSwitch=RB_SETUP_RLC_INFO_OPT_SWITCH-1
Gain effect:

CS call setup delay will be improved about 20ms.
Optimization4-Improvement in 4G-Protocol
Message
Introduction :

Optimization for idle CSFB
If this option is selected and the preferred CSFB policy for UEs in idle mode is redirection, the eNodeB no
longer activates security mode or performs RRC connection reconfiguration, but sends a redirection
message. And the CSFB delay will be shorten.
 Network performance:
None.
Activation:

MOD GLOBALPROCSWITCH: ProtocolMsgOptSwitch=IdleCsfbRedirectOptSwitch-1;
Gain :

for idle CSFB, CSFB delay improve 50ms~100ms.

Before After
Optimization5-Improvement in 4G-
Optimization default paging cycle
 Introduction :
Set the default paging cycle to 320ms, and the paging delay for idle CSFB will be shorten
Network performance:
The power consumption of UE will be higher.
Activation:
MOD PCCHCFG: LocalCellID=xx,DefaultPagingCycle=rf32;.
Gain :
CSFB delay will be improved about 100~300ms.

Appendix
Early Alerting Optimization
 There two alerting modes for the MO-CSFB UE: early alerting mode
and normal alerting mode
 Early alerting mode: the MSC sends the alerting message to the MO UE, it doesn’t rely on whether the MT UE
sends the alerting message of the MSC. So the MO E2E CSFB latency doesn’t contain the MT CSFB setup latency;
 Normal alerting mode: the MSC won’t send the alerting message to the MO UE until receive the alerting message
from the MT UE. So the MO E2E CSFB latency contains the MT CSFB setup latency.

Appendix
 According to the MSC configuration of HW MSC, the early alerting switch is OFF
 According to the UE log of NorthEast region test, it seems that NorthEast region uses
early alerting mode. As is shown below:
 According to the MT UE, although the MT UE successfully falls back to 3G, it doesn’t finish the call setup
procedure, e.g. it doesn’t send the alerting message to the MSC, the MT CSFB is failure;
 But, the MO UE stills receives the alerting message. It means the MO alerting message doesn’t rely on the MT
alerting message.
Appendix

 Based on the above analysis, we suggest:
 Confirm whether they enable the early alerting mode. If it is, we suggest switch off the early
alerting function, because it can’t reflect the real user experience;
 Or we suggest modifying the E2E CSFB setup latency calculation formula to eliminate
alerting mode difference. And the following picture shows the compare result with new and
old formula in the same test.
New formula: (MO Connect - MO Dial) - (MT Connect - MT Alerting)
