• Absolute priority will be set for both LTE and UMTS network to facilitate cell reselection preference
to LTE network. It is not possible to set the same priority for LTE and UMTS network. Absolute
priority is broadcasted in the SIB message and it affects cell reselection process.
• Absolute priority ranges from 0 to 7, where 7 indicate the highest priority and 0 indicate the lowest
priority.

• UE performs cell reselection to U2100 lower priority inter-RAT cell when all the following
conditions are met:
No cell meets the criteria for reselection to higher priority cells
SServingCell < Threshserving,Low for a time period of TReselUTRAN.
SNonServingCell,x > Threshx,Low for a time period of TReselUTRAN.
The UE has camped on the serving cell for more than 1second.

• The triggering of event B1 indicates that at least one neighboring cell signal quality is higher than
specified threshold:

Leaving condition: Mn + Ofn + Hys < Thresh

This feature will help user to return to LTE in time, to utilize LTE network for PS services.
Recommended implementation to UMTS/GSM cells with co-located LTE cells or within fully continuous
LTE coverage area, to avoid UE fail to go back to LTE in areas that LTE coverage is not enough for UE
to register then cause UE lost service before UE reselect back to UMTS.
Since now Telkomsel LTE network is just started, LTE cannot provide fully continuous coverage, so fast return
is only enabled in co-located 3G/2G cells.
Thus in case if UE make CSFB call to 3G/2G, but UE move to another neighboring cell without co-located LTE
site, then Fast Return wouldn’t trigger, thus UE have to wait all background PS service release (if any),
especially for smartphone user with many background PS connections. Thus user might experience relatively
“slow” back to LTE (typically 1~2 minutes if user is not intended to access internet).
