Initial conditions
System Simulator:
2 cells, GPRS supported, PCCCH not present.
Cell A: CCN Active. SI3 indicates SI2quater broad cast on BCCH norm. SI2quater contains a CCN Support Description indicating that CCN not is supported towards Cell B. RLA_C = -50 dBm
Cell B: CCN Active. RLA_C = -60 dBm
Mobile Station:
MS is in Packet Idle mode, GPRS attached with support of GERAN Feature Package 1 indicated in MS Radio Access Capabilities, and PDP context 2 established.

Test procedure
The MS is given time to read all SI including SI2quater in idle mode.
The MS is triggered to initiate packet uplink transfer. SS assigns resources to the MS and it starts to send uplink data that the SS acknowledge. During the uplink the signal strength of Cell A is lowered to – 80 dBm. The MS enters CCN mode but does not send any PACKET CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION. The MS continues to send uplink data. After w while, the MS selects cell B. The MS requests resources for an uplink in cell B and completes the uplink transfer.

Test procedure
SS establishes a downlink TBF and sends 4 RLC data blocks, the last one containing FBI = 0 and a valid RRBP. The MS sends a PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK. The signal strength of Cell A is lowered to – 80 dBm. The downlink continues until MS sends PACKET CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION. SS sends PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER setting NC2 and then sends RLC data blocks, regularly polling the MS with a valid RRBP, and verifies that the MS has entered NC2 mode: the MS leaves CCN mode, starts reporting measurements and does not perform any cell reselection on its own as required in NC2.

42.4.5.9.4.3 Test procedure
|
The MS is triggered to initiate packet uplink transfer. SS assigns resources to the MS and the MS starts to send uplink data that the SS acknowledges. During the uplink transfer, the signal strength of cell A is lowered to – 80 dBm. The MS enters CCN mode and sends PACKET CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION. The MS then continues to send uplink data.
SS sends a Packet Measurement Order providing the MS with NC2 parameters. MS starts sending Packet Measurement Reports. SS then sends a complete set of PACKET NEIGHBOUR CELL DATA with SI1, SI3 and SI13 of Cell B to the MS. SS then sends a PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER that orders the MS to change to Cell B.
The MS requests resources for an uplink transfer in Cell B and continues the uplink transfer. The MS then requests the remaining SI messages by sending PACKET SI STATUS(Note: During the acquisition of BCCH information the MS may send up to three extra PACKET SI STATUS messages). SS verifies that the MS indicates that it has received the SI sent in PACKET NEIGHBOUR CELL DATA. SS sends the missing SI to the MS in PACKET SERVING CELL DATA messages during the uplink transfer.
To ensure that the MS has received the requested SI, Cell A is deactivated and Cell C is activated with signal strength set to – 60 dBm. The signal strength of cell B is lowered to – 80 dBm. The MS enters CCN mode and sends PACKET CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION. The SS then sends PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER and the MS changes to Cell C. The MS requests resources for an uplink transfer in the new cell and re-establishes and completes the uplink transfer in the new cell.

1 The behaviour of the mobile station is controlled by the parameter NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER broadcast in the PSI5 message on PBCCH, in the SI13 and SI2quater messages on the BCCH and in the PSI13 message on PACCH.
When in mode NC1 or NC2, the mobile station shall perform the NC measurements as defined in 3GPP TS 05.08. The reporting periods are indicated in the NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I and NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T field of the PSI5, the SI2quater, the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER or the PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER message
On expiry of timer T3158, the mobile station shall restart timer T3158 with the indicated reporting period, perform the measurements and send either the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message or the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT to the network. The condition for sending the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message instead of the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message is based on the REPORT_TYPE parameter and if the MS has received BSIC information for all cells.
2 In packet idle mode, the reporting period is NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I rounded off to the nearest smaller integer multiple of DRX period if NC_REPORTING PERIOD_I is greater than DRX period, else, the reporting period is DRX period

Test procedure
MS is powered on and Attach procedure is completed. The negotiated Ready Timer value in ATTACH ACCEPT indicates the ready timer function is active for 60 seconds. When the measurement reporting time becomes valid, the MS sends a CHANNEL REQUEST message indicating 'Single block packet access' on RACH. The network shall then respond with an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message granting a 'single block access' on a PDCH. The mobile station shall then send the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message in the allocated radio block on the assigned PDCH as indicated in the Measurement Parameters struct.

The behaviour of the mobile station is controlled by the parameter NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER broadcast in the PSI5 message on PBCCH, in the SI13 and SI2quater messages on the BCCH and in the PSI13 message on PACCH. Alternatively, the network may send the NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER parameters in a PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER or in a PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message on PCCCH or PACCH to a particular mobile station.
When in mode NC1 or NC2, the mobile station shall perform the NC measurements as defined in 3GPP TS 05.08. The reporting periods are indicated in the NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I and NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T field of the PSI5, the SI2quater, the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER or the PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER message
The procedure for NC measurement report sending shall be initiated by the mobile station at expiry of the NC measurement report interval timer T3158. At expiry of the timer T3158 the mobile station shall restart the timer T3158, perform the measurements and send either the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message containing the 'NC measurement report struct' or the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT on PACCH.
Following a downlink TBF establishment, the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT or PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message shall not be sent on the uplink PACCH associated with this TBF until two PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK messages has been sent to the network.

Test procedure
MS is brought into downlink packet transfer mode. SS sends data blocks and MS answers with PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK. When reporting period has expired and at least two PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK messages have been sent, MS sends a PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message. SS sends data blocks continuously and MS sends PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT messages when reporting period has expired and at least one PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message has been sent after the last PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message.
The SS shall accept PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT from the MS anytime during GPRS attach and PDP Context activation procedures.

42.4.7.4.1 Conformance requirement
|
For a multi-RAT mobile station, the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message may contain information on a 3G target cell, together with the IMMEDIATE_REL parameter; in the case of UTRAN establishment of UTRAN channel(s) and subsequent measurement reporting are defined in 3GPP TS 25.331.
Upon receipt of the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message the mobile station shall start timer T3174 and apply the cell reselection procedure defined in subclause 5.5.1.1. with the additional rule that an immediate abort of operation in the old cell may be required by the network through the IMMEDIATE_REL field, except for the acknowledgement, by means of a PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT message, of a valid RRBP field possibly included in the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message. The mobile station shall obey the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message irrespective of whether or not the mobile station has any knowledge of the relative synchronisation of the target cell to the serving cell. A UTRAN capable mobile station shall obey the command irrespective of whether the cell is know or not known (see 3GPP TS 25.133 and 3GPP TS 25.123).
For a multi-RAT mobile station, the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message may contain information on a 3G target cell, together with the IMMEDIATE_REL parameter; in the case of UTRAN establishment of UTRAN channel(s) and subsequent measurement reporting are defined in 3GPP TS 25.331.
• The UE shall:
1> set the variable ESTABLISHMENT_CAUSE to "Inter-RAT cell change order";
NOTE: This value of ESTABLISHMENT_CAUSE has priority over the cause requested by upper layers.
1> initiate an RRC connection establishment procedure as specified in subclause 8.1.3.
For a UTRAN target cell, the mobile station regards the procedure as completed when it has received a successful response to its RRC Connection Request message, see 3GPP TS 25.331. It shall then stop timer T3174.

In the following cases, the mobile station shall determine that the network controlled cell reselection procedure has failed:
- The PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message commands the mobile station to a frequency in a frequency band not supported by the mobile station. Cause: “frequency not implemented”.
- The PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message is received while a circuit switched connection is on going. Cause: “on-going CS connection”.
- In A/Gb mode, the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message is received and the GMM READY timer (see 3GPP TS 24.008) is not running (i.e., mobile station in GMM STAND-BY state). Cause, if the GMM READY timer has a negotiated value equal to zero: “Forced to the Standby State”. Cause, if the GMM READY timer has a negotiated value greater than zero: “MS in GMM Standby state”.
- Access is denied in the new cell (i.e., the mobile station receives an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT, a PACKET ASSIGNMENT REJECT or, in a UTRAN cell, an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message). Cause: “Immediate Assign Reject or Packet Access Reject on target cell”.
- The mobile station is unable to synchronise to the new cell (see 3GPP TS 45.008) or the timer T3174 expires before a successful completion of the network controlled cell reselection procedure. Cause: “No response on target cell”.
- Due to any other reason (e.g. unknown or unsupported target cell information). In this case the MS shall set the ARFCN and BSIC fields to the value zero and set the cause to value “frequency not implemented”.
If the mobile station determines that the network controlled cell reselection procedure has failed, the mobile station shall stop timer T3174 (if it is still running) and start timer T3176. The mobile station shall return to the old cell, where it may trigger a cell update or other GMM specific procedure. In case the mobile station synchronised and attempted to access the new cell before returning to the old cell, the mobile station shall trigger a cell update or other GMM specific procedure, as appropriate according to the GMM requirements (see 3GPP TS 24.008).
The mobile station shall send a PACKET CELL CHANGE FAILURE message with the appropriate cause value to the network in the old cell and stop timer T3176. The PACKET CELL CHANGE FAILURE message may be sent on PACCH when the mobile station is in packet transfer mode, dual transfer mode or MAC-Shared state. Alternatively, the mobile station may initiate random access with access type “single block without TBF establishment” (PCCCH) / “single block packet access” (CCCH) and send the PACKET CELL CHANGE FAILURE message using an allocated single uplink block.

There are four cases when the mobile station shall enter a non-DRX mode period.
1) At the transition from the packet transfer mode to the packet idle mode, the mobile station shall enter the Transfer non-DRX mode period.
2) At the transition from the dual transfer mode to the dedicated mode or packet idle mode, the mobile station shall enter the Transfer non-DRX mode period.
In both cases, the duration of the Transfer non-DRX mode period is determined by value of the NON_DRX_TIMER parameter, requested in the GPRS attach procedure, and the value of the DRX_TIMER_MAX parameter broadcast in the cell. The mobile station may use the minimum value of these two parameters.
If the mobile station receives a new value of the DRX_TIMER_MAX parameter during the Transfer non-DRX mode period, the mobile station may wait to apply the new value until the next time the Transfer non-DRX mode period is entered.
3) A mobile station operating in NC2 mode shall enter the NC2 non-DRX mode period when it sends an NC measurement report. The duration of this period is defined by the NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD parameter.
4) When initiating the MM procedures for GPRS attach and routeing area update defined in 3GPP TS 04.08, the mobile station shall enter the MM non-DRX mode period. This period ends when either of the messages GPRS ATTACH ACCEPT, GPRS ATTACH REJECT, ROUTING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT or ROUTING AREA UPDATE REJECT is received by the mobile station. This period also ends after timeout when waiting for any of these messages.
The non-DRX mode periods defined above run independent of each other and may overlap. The non-DRX mode periods have effect only in packet idle mode. In packet idle mode, the mobile station shall be in non-DRX mode during any of the non-DRX mode periods. Otherwise, the mobile station in packet idle mode may be in DRX mode.

|
A mobile station operating in NC2 mode shall enter the NC2 non-DRX mode period when it sends an NC measurement report. The duration of this period is defined by the NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD parameter.
The non-DRX mode periods have effect only in packet idle mode. In packet idle mode, the mobile station shall be in non-DRX mode during any of the non-DRX mode periods. Otherwise, the mobile station in packet idle mode may be in DRX mode.
The behaviour of the mobile station is controlled by the parameter NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER broadcast in the PSI5 message on PBCCH, in the SI13 and SI2quater messages on the BCCH and in the PSI13 message on PACCH. Alternatively, the network may send the NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER parameters in a PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER or in a PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message on PCCCH or PACCH to a particular mobile station. The parameter NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER may have one of the values NC0, NC1, NC2 or RESET.
When in mode NC1 or NC2, the mobile station shall perform the NC measurements as defined in 3GPP TS 05.08. The reporting periods are indicated in the NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I and NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T field of the PSI5, the SI2quater, the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER or the PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER message. If NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD, NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I or NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T have not been received by the mobile station the default values shall be used. The mobile station shall apply to the timer T3158 either the NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I when in packet idle mode or the NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T when in packet transfer mode.
A mobile station in packet idle mode shall take into account the page mode information in any message received in a radio block on PCCCH corresponding to its paging group. The mobile station shall not take into account the page mode information in a message received in any other radio block than those corresponding to its paging group. The requirements yielded by the page mode information are as follows:
- normal paging: no additional requirements;
[…]
- paging reorganization: The mobile station shall receive all messages on the PCCCH regardless of the BS_PAG_BLKS_RES setting. It is required to receive all PBCCH messages. When the mobile station receives the next message to its (possibly new) paging group, subsequent action is defined by the page mode information in that message;

Test procedure
SS sends a PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER message to MS ordering the MS to send measurement, the MS starts sending measurements. SS continues receiving measurements until measurement results of cell B are included. SS sends then a PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message to MS ordering the MS to select Cell-B. NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER is commanded to be NC2. NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD for Cell-B is commanded to be 1.2 Sec.
MS selects Cell-B.
At the end of reporting period, MS sends a PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT to the SS on Cell-B, this is done twice. After receiving the second PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message, the SS waits for 0.8*NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD and sends a PAGING REQUEST message addressing the MS, in a Paging sub-channel not belonging to MS paging subgroup.
SS verifies that MS responds to the Paging.
At the end of next reporting period, MS sends a PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT to the SS on Cell-B. After receiving the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message, the SS waits for 1.1*NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD and sends a PAGING REQUEST message addressing the MS, in a Paging sub-channel not belonging to MS paging subgroup.
SS verifies that MS does not respond to the Paging.

The behaviour of the mobile station is controlled by the parameter NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER broadcast in the PSI5 message on PBCCH, in the SI13 and SI2quater messages on the BCCH and in the PSI13 message on PACCH. Alternatively, the network may send the NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER parameters in a PACKET MEASUREMENT ORDER or in a PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message on PCCCH or PACCH to a particular mobile station . The parameter NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER may have one of the values NC0, NC1, NC2 or RESET
On expiry of timer T3158, the mobile station shall restart timer T3158 with the indicated reporting period, perform the measurements and send either the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message or the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT to the network.
The sending of an RLC/MAC control message other than the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message from a mobile station in packet idle mode to the network may be initiated by the RR entity on the mobile station side using the packet access procedure. If access to the network is allowed, the packet access is done using the single block packet access option.
Further action depends on the RLC/MAC control message sent by the mobile station. Unless otherwise indicated by the RLC/MAC control message, the mobile station remains in packet idle mode.

The parameter values NC1 and NC2 only apply in Ready state. In Standby state, the MS shall always use normal MS control independent of the ordered NC mode.
A set of measurement reporting parameters (NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER and NC_REPORTING_PERIOD(s)) is broadcast on PBCCH. The parameters may also be sent individually to an MS on PCCCH or PACCH, in which case it overrides the broadcast parameters. The individual parameters are valid until the RESET command is sent to the MS or there is a downlink signalling failure or the MS goes to the Standby state or the MS enters dedicated mode.
