• Call Reestablishment is possible for both Circuit Switched (CS) and Packet
Switched (PS) RABs.
• There are dedicated timers that govern the establishment of CS and PS
RABs. The timers are broadcasted in System Information (SIB1) from the
Network to the UEs.
• If the Network does not support Call reestablishment, it would set the
timer values to 0. The UE in this case will not send cell Update to the
Network requesting for reestablishing the call.
• When the Network supports the Call Reestablishment, the default value of
the timer is typically 8 sec for CS RAB and 30 sec for PS RAB.
• The UE stores these timer values and when it encounters the failure it
down-switches from DCH to FACH.
• The UE would then indicate in cell Update message whether the CS and PS
RAB timers have expired or not. When the timers have not expired the
network will initiate the call Reestablishment.
What is RRE and why it is needed?
The Rb Mapping Infomations for DCH and FACH states have to be provided
to the UE at RRC CONNECTION SETUP (for SRB) and RADIO BEARER
RECONFIGURATION (for incoming Relocation, AlwaysOnUpsize) because
RRC CELL UPDATE CONFIRM message has to be sent on the DCCH.
PM33821:Sample scenario (NBAP Radio Link
Failure Indicator to RNC)
• ACTION:
•
– PS RAB is established on DCH
– Node-B sends the NBAP Radio Link Failure Indicator to RNC
– UE sends CELL UPDATE message with RL Failure cause to RNC
• EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:
Upon receiving Cell Update message from UE, if it is CS call with standalone CS
RAB, this feature shall re-establish CS, while PM33821 releases CS RAB and the
RRC connection. In the case of multi-service calls, PM33821 releases CS and
re-establishes PS only, this feature shall re-establish CS on top of it.
The message RRC CELL UPDATE CONFIRM has to be sent on the DCCH/FACH,
implying that the INODE shall establish & support the multiple paths
(DCCH/FACH (RACH), DCCH/DCH).
The message RRC CELL UPDATE CONFIRM has to be sent on the
DCCH/FACH, implying that the INODE shall establish & support the
multiple paths (DCCH/FACH (RACH), DCCH/DCH).
For CS RAB, when getting the new radio resource parameters for UE,. RAB
matching algorithm is enhanced so that CS RAB retains the same rate
(same CS UL/DL RbSets) as prior to the failure.

PM132010: RRE over IUR
PM33821 is V6 feature which introduced RRC connection re-establishment
to recover PS call only; CS call is released during RRE procedure.
PM34290 is the following feature to do RRC connection re-establishment
to recover both CS and PS call.
Both features only support cell update received in SRNC, for cell update
received in DRNC, RRC Connection Release message is sent with the cause
Directed Signalling Connection Re-establishment (DSCR) and call is
released. UE will then re-initiate RRC connection to new SRNC.
PM132010 removed the Iur limitation set by PM33821 and PM34290, it
perform RRC connection re-establishment over Iur and recover the call
with RL in DRNC
PM132010: RRE over IUR
Due to UE mobility, RRC Cell Update including RRE failure causes (Radio
link failure or RLC unrecoverable error) could be sent to a cell in DRNC,
instead of performing RRC release, DRNC forward cell update through
Uplink Signalling Transfer Indication on CCCH to SRNC. SRNC interpret cell
update cause and initiate RRE by setting up RNSAP RL and Transport
bearer Over Iur. The RRC Cell Update Confirm is enclosed in RNSAP
Downlink Signalling Transfer Indication and sent over CCCH to DRNC,
which then sends RRC Cell Update Confirm to UE over CCCH.
The call configuration eligible to RRE over Iur is max 3PDP in combination
with CS thanks to feature PM81449 RAB combination – Multiple PDP
enhancement.
RRC state prior to RRE can be CELL_DCH or CELL_FACH. The transport
channel type for TRB can be DCH, HSDPA and EDCH, and for SRB, it can be
DCH, SRB over EDCH and SRB over F-DPCH.
PM132010: RRE over IUR
New feature flag: IsRreOverIurAllowed is introduced.
The feature flag interact with existing flag
rrcReestablishForSingleOrMultiServiceMode to re-establish RRC
connection for PS only or CS and PS over Iur.
PM132010 –RRC Connection Re-establishment over
Iur support
•Description
– Extends current RRE capability to additional scenarios involving Iur.
– Specifically this provides two key capabilities:
1. DRNC can now convey a received Cell Update (CU) across the Iur to the SRNC.
– Currently the DRNC will reject the CU, forcing a UE re-registration.
2. SRNC can now trigger the existing RRE paradigm from a CU received via the Iur.
– Currently the SRNC will reject the CU, forcing a UE re-registration.
•Benefits
– Improves KPI11(Iur), by avoiding a deterministic class of avoidable call drops.
•Activation/Configuration
– Activation: Feature flags on both SRNC and DRNC.
• SRNC: RNC/RAS/IsRreOverIurAllowed set to True.
• DRNC: RNC/NeighbouringRNC/IsRreOverIurAllowed set to True.
– Control: N/A (no additional behavioral controlling parameters).
