This page will explain about various aspect of Measurement Process that is happening in a LTE. In any technology,Measurement is done roughly at two stage. One is measurement in Idle mode and the other one is in Connectedmode. Idle mode measurement is mainly for Cell Selection and Reslection process and most of idle modemeasurement criteria is determined by SIB messages, the connected mode measurement is mostly for Handover orCSFB and the measurement criteria is determined by specific RRC messages dedicated for a specific UE
23/5/2021 ShareTechnote Multi Cell - Measurement in LTE Home : www.sharetechnote.com This page will explain about various aspect of Measurement Process that is happening in a LTE In any technology, Measurement is done roughly at two stage One is measurement in Idle mode and the other one is in Connected mode Idle mode measurement is mainly for Cell Selection and Reslection process and most of idle mode measurement criteria is determined by SIB messages, the connected mode measurement is mostly for Handover or CSFB and the measurement criteria is determined by specific RRC messages dedicated for a specific UE This page will deal with connected mode measurement process only Idle mode measurement is not the scope of this page In terms of RRC Message, you may say Measurement Process would be a simple one, that is, i) eNB sends an RRC message indicating what kind of items to be measured and ii) UE sends an RRC message that carries the result of the measurement You're right at the high level, but you will find it very tricky if you are asked to create the RRC message with all the detailed parameters (IE : Information Elements) to trigger UE to perform the specific measurement There are so many details you need to understand On UE protocol stack as well, implmentating the measurement process would be one of the most challenging item According to my experience, it tend to take huge time and effort to implement all sorts of measurement algorithm and take a lot of time for verification process as well Topics on this page are as follows LTE Measurement Report Trigger (EVENT for Measurement Report) Measurement GAP Measurement GAP - LTE and Legacy Measurement GAP - LTE and NR Layer Filtering for Measurement Report Measurement with CGI report Example > - Measuring RSRP, RSRQ for current Cell Example > - Event Based Measurement : A1, A2, A3 Example > - Event Based Measurement : A5 LTE Measurement Report Trigger (EVENT for Measurement Report) One of the most important step for Handover is Measurement Report from UE before the handover Network make a decision on whether it will let UE handover or not, based on the measurement value from UE There are many different measurement items and many different ways to measure the signal quality of the current cell (serving cell) and target cell Ideally a network let UE to report the signal quality (usually RSRP) of the current cell (serving cell) and target cell and set the arbitrary rule for handover But this can be too complicated and too much load on network since the network may need a multiple times of consecutive measurement result in stead of using only a single or a couple of measured signal quality value (Can you think of why only one or a couple of signal quality measurement (RSRP) would not be a good enough for this kind of decision making ?) As a kind of solution, 3GPP defines several set of predefined set of measurement report mechanism to be performed by UE These predefined measurement report type is called "Event" What kind of "event" a UE has to report is specified by RRC Connection Reconfiguration message as follows (shown in red) +-rrcConnectionReconfiguration ::= SEQUENCE +-rrc-TransactionIdentifier ::= INTEGER (0 3) [0]

as follows You will see pretty complicated description of the exact procedure of each of these events, but if you convert those descriptions into a graphical format it would be much easier/intuitive to understand the nature of these events Event Type Description Event A1 Serving becomes better than threshold Event A2 Serving becomes worse than threshold Event A3 Neighbour becomes offset better than serving Event A4 Neighbour becomes better than threshold Event A5 Serving becomes worse than threshold1 and neighbour becomes better than threshold2 Event A6 Neighbour become offset better than S Cell (This event is introduced in Release 10 for CA) Event B1 Inter RAT neighbour becomes better than threshold Event B1-NR NR neighbour becomes better than threshold Event B2 Serving becomes worse than threshold1 and inter RAT neighbour becomes better than threshold2 Event B2-NR Serving becomes worse than threshold1 and NR neighbour becomes better than threshold2 Event C1 CSI-RS resource becomes better than threshold Event C2 CSI-RS resource becomes offset better than reference CSI-RS resource Event W1 WLAN becomes better than a threshold Event W2 All WLAN inside WLAN mobility set becomes worse than threshold1 and a WLAN outside WLAN mobility set becomes better than threshold2 Event W3 All WLAN inside WLAN mobility set becomes worse than a threshold Event V1 The channel busy ratio is above a threshold Event V2 The channel busy ratio is below a threshold Event H1 The Aerial UE height is above a threshold Event H2 The channel busy ratio is below a threshold https://www.sharetechnote.com/html/Handbook_LTE_MultiCell_Measurement_LTE.html 2/20 23/5/2021 ShareTechnote Following is an illustration showing possible conditions triggering each of the events A1~A6 Just suppose that you become a UE and generating measurement report following along the timeline If you don't get confused, you are high quality UE :) Simply put, Measurement Report is triggered by whether the measured value crosses (goes higher or goes lower) a certain target value The target value can be set by one of two methods One is to use threshold which is a kind of absolute value and the other one is to use Offsef value which is a kind relative value with a reference to 'something' like serving cell value However, in reality the measured value can fluctuate pretty frequently sometimes by measurement error by UE modem and sometimes by the fluctuation of Radio channel itself In most case, the network would not be interested in such a small fluctuation and does not want to get too many measurement reports triggered by such a small fluctuation To provent this kind of unnecessarily frequent measurement report caused by small range of fluctuation, the parameter called 'Hysterisis' is introduced The role of Hysterysis can be illustrated as below and hope this would make sense to you Measurement GAP Before the handover, UE normally measure the cell power (signal quality) of the target cell and report it to the network, so that network can make a decision whether to allow UE to handover to the target cell or not It is not a big issue to measure the signal quality of the target cell if the target cell is at the same frequency as the current cell (Intrafrequency measurement) But there would be an issue when the target cell is at a different frequency from the current cell (Interfrequency measurement) Just in terms of logical sense of view, the simplest solution for Interfrequency measurement, the simplest solution for this would be to implement two RF tranciever on UE However, there are some practical problems with this kind of two tranciever solution One of the problems is cost issue It would require additional cost to implement the additional tranciever The other problem would be the possible interference between the current frequency and target frequency especially when the current frequency and target frequency are close to each other So they come out with a special techique called "Measurement GAP" This is the same concept as "Compressed Mode" in UMTS. The idea of the Measurement GAP is to create a small gap during which no https://www.sharetechnote.com/html/Handbook_LTE_MultiCell_Measurement_LTE.html 3/20 23/5/2021 ShareTechnote transmission and reception happens since there is no signal transmission and reception during the gap, UE can switch to the target cell and perform the signal quality measurement and come back to the current cell To make this work seamlessly, there should be a well established agreement between UE and Network about the gap definition (e.g, Starting Position of the Gap, Gap length, number of Gaps etc) and this agreement is established by MeasGapConfig IE of RRC Connection Reconfiguration message Measurement GAP for LTE and Legacy (UTRAN, GRAN etc) If you see this part, RRC contents is small but you need to go through several steps as followsto fully understand the implementation of the measurement GAP (The spreadsheet shown at the bottom is here Let me know if you find any problem with this spreadsheet) One of the complications about the measurement GAP would be how to schedule data transmission around the gap Situation would be more complicated than you may think because we have to think about not only the data transmission itself, but also the scheduling grant and ACK/NACK transmission One of possible scheduling example around measurement gap is as follows https://www.sharetechnote.com/html/Handbook_LTE_MultiCell_Measurement_LTE.html 4/20 23/5/2021 ShareTechnote Measurement GAP for LTE and NR As LTE evolves, we got increasing number of measurement gap definition and with the introduction of NR, this list got exploded as below Fundamental logic of the GAP setting is same as in LTE and Legacy case as explained above Recap the procedure, it can be summarized as follows i) Get the Gap Pattern ID from RRC MeasGapConfig and additional SMTC parameter from ii) Get the detailed Gap Setting Parameters for the Gap Pattern from 36.133 Table 8.1.2.1-1 iii) Determine Gap Subframe based on the condition described as below Rules may sound simple ? It may sound simple, but you would not know how complicated it is before you really try it Rehan has put a lot of his time and effort on this and completed the excel spreadsheet to show the gap settings for each subframe automatically according to the parameters you set He kindly allowed me to share the spreadsheet for readers Click here to get the file Followings a few examples from the

Report Normally Measurement Control/Report is for detecting the signal strength of the target cell, but CGI report is not for measuring the signal strength It is to detect the Cell ID It is not a simple cell ID, it is to measure CGI (Cell Global Identity) which uniquely identifies a cell in the whole world For a ordinary measurement report, UE only have to switch its tuner to target cell and measure the signal strength and it does not have to decode any MIB, SIB of the target cell It would take very short time to measure the signal strength But it is different story in case of CGI CGI is made up of PLMN + LAC + Cell ID It means UE has to decode MIB/SIBs of the target cell Decoding MIB/SIB is not a big issue if it is in idle mode, but the problem is that measurement control/report should happen in Connected Mode Measurement GAP in LTE would not give enough time for UE to decode MIB/SIBs of the target cell Then how can we give UE enough time to measure MIB/SIBs of target cell in connected mode You can use DRX for this Using DRX, you can give UE time long enough to measure MIB/SIBs of target cell One think you have to be careful about DRX is that you have to make it sure that network should not send any data or UL Grant during the drx cycle In case of measurement gap, measurement gap has high priority than data transmission/reception, but in DRX data transmission or handling UL grant has higher priority than DRX It means if UE has any DL data or UL Grant during onTime of DRX cycle it does not goes into OFF period for a certain duration If network keep sending data or UL grant during the DRX cycle (see DRX page for details), UE can never gets into OFF period meaning it cannot have time to switch to target cell for CGI detection In this case, UE would still send Measurement Report but cgi-info field would be missing in the report Following is one example of RRC Connection Reconfiguration for CGI Report measurement control See if my description above is

captured in live network with Azenqos tool In this example, network configures various measurement objects simultaneously with multiple different events You wouldn't see the event based measurement report in this example (since UE didn't meet the condition for those events), but you will see the good examples how multiple different events are defined in a single rrc message and how UE report those multiple measurement Usually measurements configuration in live network is much more complicated than those settings in the test equipment So this can be a very practical examples for you
