T300 and N300

DPDCH Power Control Preamble Length (PCPreamble)
Successive Synchronization Indication Times (NInSyncInd)
Successive Out-of-sync Indication Times (NOutSyncInd)
Radio Link Failure Timer Duration (TRLFailure)
N312 and T312
N313, N315, T313

 T300 and N300 : This timer is started when the UE sends

RRCConnectionRequest.
Before the timer expires, it is stopped if the UE receives
RRCConnectionSetup or RRCConnectionReject. After the timer expires for
N300 Times, the UE directly enters the RRC_IDLE state.

NInSyncInd : Num of Continuous in Sync Ind. The radio link
set remains in the initial state until it receives NInsyncInd
successive synchronization indications from L1
NOutSyncInd: defines the successive out-of-sync indication
times that are required to receive to start the timer TRlFailure.
TRlFailure: When the radio link set is in synchronized state,
the NodeB will start the timer TRlFailure after it receives
NOutsyncInd successive out-of-sync indications. The NodeB
should stop and reset the timer TRlFailure after receiving
NInsyncInd successive sync indications. If the timer TRlFailure
times out, the NodeB will trigger the radio link failure process,
and indicate the radio link set that is out-of-sync.

 N312 and T312: When the UE starts to set up the dedicated

channel, it starts the T312 timer, and after the UE detects
N312 synchronization indications from L1, it will stop the T312
timer. Once the timer times out, it means that the physical
channel setup has failed. (T312=6, N312=D1)
N313, N315, T313 : After the UE detects N313 successive
out-of-sync indications from L1, it will start the T313 timer. And
after the UE detects N315 successive sync indications from L1,
it will stop the T313 timer. Once the timer times out, the radio
link fails. (T313=5/3, N315=D1, N313=D50)
