It provides detailed descriptions and diagrams of the LTE cell search process, types of handovers including intra-frequency, inter-frequency and inter-RAT, factors that trigger handovers, and how handover success rates are calculated. It also examines how ANR and UE capabilities can impact the ability to obtain neighbor cell information during handovers between cells under the same or different eNodeBs. Finally, it provides a high-level overview of power control in LTE networks.

    Overview of Handover
    While moving, a UE performs the handover procedure to change connection to the network. The following figure shows the
    schematic diagram.

    In the LTE system, the handover procedure is controlled by the network (eNodeB). Therefore, the eNodeB needs to monitor the

    quality of the radio environment where the UE is in. To do so, the eNodeB delivers a measurement control instructing the UE to send
    measurement reports when the conditions specified in the measurement control are met.
    Trigger: Currently, Huawei eNodeB uses event A3 to trigger an intra-frequency handover and events A2 and A4 to trigger an interfrequency handover.
    Handover: The eNodeB delivers the handover command to the UE. Upon reception of the handover command, the UE disconnects
    from the source cell and is handed over to the target cell.

    Handover Success Rate


    According to the signaling process in 3GPP TS 36.331,
    eNodeB statistics
    (1) Handover success rate = Number of handovers/Number of handover attempts x
    100%
    (2) Number of handover attempts: indicates the number of eNodeB-transmitted
    RRCConnectionReconfiguration messages for handovers.
    (3) Number of handovers: indicates the number of eNodeB-received
    RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete messages for handovers.
    Handover success rate
    The handover success rate is greater than 97% at the TD-LTE site in Norway.
    The handover success rate is 100% in the Huayang field in Chengdu.

    ANR vs UE capability : Inter-eNodeB


    1. The source eNodeB delivers the intra-frequency measurement
    configuration to the UE, instructing the UE to measure
    neighboring cells that work on the frequencies specified in the
    measurement configuration.
    2. The UE detects that the PCI of cell B meets the measurement
    requirements, and reports the PCI to the source eNodeB.
    3. The source eNodeB checks whether its intra-RAT NCL includes the
    PCI of cell B. If so, the procedure ends. If not, the source eNodeB
    sends the measurement configuration to the UE, instructing the
    UE to read the ECGI, tracking area code (TAC), and PLMN ID list of
    cell B.
    4. The source eNodeB allows the UE to read these parameters over
    the broadcast channel (BCH).
    5. The UE reports the obtained parameter values to the source
    eNodeB.
    Notes:
    ANR features of an UE will effect the capability of the UE to read the ECGI, TAC and other information of the target cell. Thus, failure to
    do so the target cell information cant be read.

    ANR vs UE capability : Intra-eNodeB


    1. The source eNodeB delivers the intra-frequency
    measurement configuration to the UE, instructing the
    UE to measure neighboring cells that work on the
    frequencies specified in the measurement configuration.
    2. The UE detects that the PCI of target cell (Cell A) meets
    the measurement requirements, and reports the PCI to
    the source cell (Cell B).
    Due to the source cell and target cell are located under
    the same BBU board, thus target cell information can be
    search and obtain internally referring to the PCI.
    Therefore although UE doesnt support ANR features, it
    doesnt affect the reading of ECGI, TAC and other
    information of the target cell which required for the
    creation of NCL.
