In active state
Communicating via its dedicated channels
UTRAN knows which cell UE is in.
Cell-FACH
In active state
Few data to be transmitted both in uplink and in downlink. There
is no need to allocate dedicated channel for this UE.
Downlink uses FACH and uplink uses RACH.
UE need to monitor the FACH for its relative information.
UTRAN knows which cell UE is in.

Contains the CPCH dynamic information
SIB10 :
Contains information to be used by UEs having their DCH controlled
by a DRAC procedure
Used in FDD mode only
To be used in CELL_DCH state only
Changes so often, its decoding is controlled by a timer

Contains measurement control information
SIB12 :
Contains measurement control information in connected mode

Contains ANSI-41 system information
SIB15:
Contains the location service information
SIB16:
Contains the needed pre-configuration information for handover from oth

SIB17:
Contains the configuration information for TDD
SIB18:
Contains the PLMN identities of the neighboring cells
To be used in shared networks to help with the cell reselection process

When UE is in IDLE mode and the NAS of UE request the signaling connection, UE will send a RRC Connection
Request. Each UE only can have on RRC Connection. The main function is to configure the signaling channel of UTRAN.
