 Brief Introduction of LTE1196, RAN3086 and their parameters
Brief Description:

 RAN3086: CSFB with RIM feature introduces RAN Information Management (RIM) signalling support for circuit-switched call fallback (CSFB). With the
RIM procedure, LTE eNode B is able to retrieve 3G System Information (SI) from RNC. This improves the overall end-user experience by accelerating a
voice call setup time.
 LTE1196: Feature introduces possibility to define “UTRA SI” RIM application to transfer up-to-date System Information of WCDMA neighbor cells from
remote RNC to local eNB. After reception to eNB, they can be used to populate WCDMA System Information for redirection to WCDMA procedure.

Below 1 sites considered for trial (on both 3G and LTE):  Performance Summary:
 Trial implemented on 9-Nov on 1 sites.
 Feature is activated and working, RIM container is visible
from L3 messages.
 Testing performed on 1 sites at same location during pre
Following parameter set modified: and post.

Feature verification from Drive Test
Pre Post

Post enabling feature, its is

observed from post drive test
that after Extended Service
Request and during RRC
connection Release, UE is being
sent 3G SIB in utra-BCCH-
Container.
