Specific PICS statements - PIXIT statements - Foreseen Final State of the MS "Idle, updated", with a TMSI allocated. Test Procedure In the first part of the test, the SS pages the MS, which shall react by sending CHANNEL REQUEST messages. Immediately after reception of the n-th CHANNEL REQUEST message (n being arbitrarily chosen by the SS from the set {1, 2 ... 8}) the SS sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message, which references one of the last 3 CHANNEL REQUEST messages from the MS. The MS shall then go to the correct channel and send a PAGING RESPONSE message. The SS will then release the channel. In the second part of the test, the SS again pages the MS, which shall react by sending CHANNEL REQUEST messages. Immediately after reception of the k-th CHANNEL REQUEST message (k being arbitrarily chosen by the SS from the set {4, 5 ... 8}) the SS sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message which, instead of referencing one of the last 3 CHANNEL REQUEST messages from the MS, references an earlier CHANNEL REQUEST message. The MS shall then ignore the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message and continue to send CHANNEL REQUEST messages until the Max-Retrans value has been reached. Then a period of 7 seconds shall elapse in order to allow the MS to perform cell reselection (this allows for the time between the last CHANNEL REQUEST message and the beginning of cell reselection). In the third part of the test, the CCCH_CONF of the SS is set to non-combined and the SS pages the MS, which shall react by sending CHANNEL REQUEST messages. Immediately after reception of the r-th CHANNEL REQUEST message (r being arbitrarily chosen by the SS from the set {4, 5 ... 8}) the SS sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message which, in the second request reference, references one of the last 3 CHANNEL REQUEST messages from the MS. The associated Channel Description allocates SDCCH(S) (S being arbitrarily chosen by the SS from the set {0,1 ... 7}). The MS shall then go to the correct channel and send a PAGING RESPONSE message. The SS will then release the channel. Maximum Duration of Test 90 s.

Test Procedure The SS pages the MS, which shall react by sending CHANNEL REQUESTs. Immediately after reception of the n-th CHANNEL REQUEST (n being an integer from the set {1, 2 ... 8}, arbitrarily chosen by the SS) the SS sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT message, which references one of the last 3 CHANNEL REQUESTs from the MS, and with the Wait Indication set to x seconds (x being an integer from the set {5, 6 ... 255}, arbitrarily chosen by the SS). The SS continues to send paging messages for that mobile station in every block of the mobile station's paging subgroup for x+2 s. The MS shall not answer to the PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 messages sent before x seconds have elapsed. The MS may respond to any one of the PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 messages sent after x seconds have elapsed, but at the latest it shall respond to the first PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 sent after x+1 seconds have elapsed. The SS responds to this CHANNEL REQUEST with an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT message with the Wait Indication set to 255 s. Immediately afterwards the SS changes the power levels so the MS selects cell B. After 20 s have elapsed the SS pages the MS in cell B and the MS shall answer to this page.

The network may at any time include an implicit reject indication for the PS domain or the CS domain within an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message using the IA Rest Octets IE (see sub-clause 10.5.2.16) or within an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT or an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message using the Feature Indicator IE (see sub-clause 10.5.2.76) or within a PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 message using the P1 Rest Octets IE (see sub-clause 10.5.2.23) or within a PAGING REQUEST TYPE 2 message using the P2 Rest Octets IE (see sub-clause 10.5.2.24) or within a PAGING REQUEST TYPE 3 message using the P3 Rest Octets IE (see sub-clause 10.5.2.25). The RR entity of a mobile station configured for “low access priority” (see 3GPP TS 23.060), when attempting to establish a CS connection other than in case of an emergency call or when the mobile station is a member of an authorized special access class or sending a paging response shall, while ignoring MS identities included within PAGING REQUEST messages, start listening to the downlink CCCH until successfully decoding one of the RR messages listed in sub-clause 3.3.1.1.1a. If the RR message indicates an implicit reject for the CS domain (see sub-clause 3.3.1.1.1a) the mobile station shall abort the immediate assignment procedure and initiate the Implicit Reject procedure (see sub-clause 3.3.1.1.3.2a). If the mobile station initiates this procedure due to implicit reject indication received for the CS domain (respectively PS domain) it starts timer T3234 (respectively timer T3236) and returns to idle mode. The mobile station is not allowed to make a mobile originated access attempt for the CS domain (respectively PS domain) in the same cell until T3234 (respectively T3236) expires or is stopped. If the mobile station receives a PAGING REQUEST message while T3234/T3236 is running it shall stop T3234/T3236 and respond to the PAGING REQUEST message.

The Paging procedure is used by the network to cause the Mobile Station to establish a radio connection. Normally the Mobile Station listens to its paging subchannel, but this can be modified by the use of different page modes. The correct implementation of the paging procedure in the Mobile Station is essential for the basic establishment of a connection.

26.6.2.3.1.1 Conformance requirements
1. An MS, after reception of a message with page mode set to "paging reorganization", shall answer to paging messages (with page mode set to "normal paging") sent on its old CCCH in paging blocks which do not belong to the MS's paging sub-channel. 2. When the network changes the paging group of the MS by modifying BCCH parameters (to CCCH_CONF set to "1 basic physical channel used for CCCH combined with SDCCH", and BS_AG_BLKS_RES set to "2 blocks reserved for access grant"), the MS shall calculate its new paging group and answer to paging messages on its new paging subchannel. 3. When the network changes the paging group of the MS by modifying BCCH parameters (to CCCH_CONF set to "2 basic physical channels used for CCCH, not combined with SDCCHs" and BS_AG_BLKS_RES set to "2 blocks reserved for access grant"), the MS shall calculate its new paging group and answer to paging messages on its new paging subchannel.

26.6.2.3.1.3 Method of test
Initial Conditions System Simulator: 1 cell, Max-Retrans = 2, CCCH_CONF set to "1 basic physical channel used for CCCH, not combined with SDCCHs", a legal combination of BS_AG_BLKS_RES and BS_PA_MFRMS is chosen arbitrarily by the SS, with the exception that BS_PA_MFRMS shall not be set to 9. Mobile Station: The MS is in the "idle, updated" state, with a TMSI allocated. The IMSI of the MS is from a defined/default range that ensures its paging channel changes when the broadcast parameters are changed. Specific PICS statements - PIXIT statements - Foreseen Final State of the MS "Idle, updated", with TMSI allocated. Test Procedure The SS sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message on the MS's paging subchannel, with the page mode element set to "paging reorganization" and Request References that do not pertain to the MS. Before the MS's original paging subchannel re-occurs, the SS pages it on the CCCH corresponding to the Mobile Station's IMSI with a PAGING REQUEST TYPE 2 message (page mode = normal paging) containing the MS's TMSI in some paging block which does not belong to the Mobile Station's paging subchannel. The MS shall respond by sending CHANNEL REQUESTs. The SS responds to the second CHANNEL REQUEST with an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT (in order to avoid a cell reselection) on an arbitrarily selected paging subchannel. Then the SS starts sending messages (PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 or PAGING REQUEST TYPE 2 or PAGING REQUEST TYPE 3 or IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT or IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED or IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT) with page mode set to "paging reorganization" on all paging subchannels. After 5 s (to ensure T3126 expires) the SS pages the MS with its TMSI on an arbitrarily selected paging subchannel (on the CCCH corresponding to the Mobile Station's IMSI). The MS shall respond by sending CHANNEL REQUESTs. The SS responds to the second CHANNEL REQUEST with an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT (in order to avoid a cell reselection). The SS changes the paging parameters. Then the SS sets the page mode to "normal paging". The SS then waits for the duration of five 51-TDMA multiframes (4 to allow the MS to read all the system information type 1, 2, 3, and 4 messages on the BCCH, and one to calculate the new paging group). Not before 5 s after the last IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT message addressing the MS (to ensure T3126 expires), the MS is paged with a PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 on its new paging subchannel. The MS shall respond by sending CHANNEL REQUESTs. The SS responds to the second CHANNEL REQUEST with an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT (in order to avoid a cell reselection) and then waits 5 s (to ensure T3126 expires). Then the MS is paged with a PAGING REQUEST TYPE 2 on its new paging subchannel. The MS shall respond by sending CHANNEL REQUESTs. The SS responds to the second CHANNEL REQUEST with an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT (in order to avoid a cell reselection). Maximum Duration of Test 60 s. Expected Sequence This sequence is performed for execution counter, K =1, 2. Step Direction Message Comments 1 SS -> MS IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED Sent on the MS's paging channel. Page mode set to "paging reorganization". Request Reference not pertaining to the MS. 2 SS -> MS PAGING REQUEST TYPE 2 Sent before the MS's original paging subchannel re-occurs, but later than the next paging block of that CCCH. 3 MS -> SS CHANNEL REQUEST 4 MS -> SS CHANNEL REQUEST 5 SS -> MS IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT Wait indication = 0 s. 6 -------- -------- All L3 messages sent on any paging subchannel are paging fill frames specify "paging re organization. 7 SS -> MS PAGING REQUEST TYPE 2 Sent on an arbitrarily selected paging subchannel Page mode "paging reorganization" Not sent before 5 s after step 5. 8 MS -> SS CHANNEL REQUEST 9 MS -> SS CHANNEL REQUEST 10 SS -> MS IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT Wait indication = 0 s. 11 Change of paging parameters in SYS INFO 3 as described below for K=1, 2. 12 The SS waits until it has sent all system information messages (page mode is still paging reorganization). 13 -------- -------- All L3 messages sent on any paging subchannel specify "normal paging. 14 -------- -------- Wait 3 s. 15 SS -> MS PAGING REQUEST TYPE 1 Sent on the new paging subchannel of the MS.
