2 Overview
Based on the frequency of the target cell, intra-RAT mobility management can be classified into intra-frequency mobility management and inter-frequency mobility management.
For details about the definition, classification, and procedures about mobility management in connected mode, see Overview of Mobility Management in Connected Mode.
2.1 Introduction
Intra-Frequency Mobility Management
Intra-frequency mobility management is implemented by handovers between E-UTRAN cells using the same frequency. A network may use the same frequency in different cells,
and therefore the eNodeB needs to support intra-frequency handovers within the network.
Inter-Frequency Mobility Management
Inter-frequency mobility management is implemented by handovers between E-UTRAN cells using different frequencies. A network may use different frequencies in different
geographical areas, and therefore the eNodeB needs to support inter-frequency handovers within the network.
2.2 Benefits
Intra-RAT mobility management in connected mode provides the following benefits:
Ensures the continuity of radio network coverage and provides uninterrupted communication services for UEs.
Provides means to transfer UEs and supports flexible networking to meet operators' service steering and load balancing requirements.
2.3 Architecture
For the network architecture for intra-RAT mobility management in connected mode, see Overview of Mobility Management in Connected Mode.
1. Intra-frequency measurement
When a UE establishes a radio bearer, the eNodeB sends the UE the intra-frequency measurement configuration, based on which the UE performs measurements.
Then, the UE generates a candidate cell list based on measurement results.
2. Triggering intra-frequency handovers
Intra-frequency handovers are triggered by event A3. For details, see 3.2 Triggering of an Intra-Frequency Handover.
3. Handover decision
In the handover decision phase, the eNodeB checks the cells in the candidate cell list and determines whether a handover needs to be initiated and, if so, to which cell
the UE is to be handed over.
4. Handover execution
In the handover execution phase, the eNodeB controls the procedure of UE handover to the target cell.

Parameter Name Parameter ID Parameter Description
Measurement report amount IntraRatHoComm.IntraRATHoRprtAmount This parameter is used to limit the number
of measurement reports, reducing the
number of handover retries.
When a UE is performing VoIP services, inter-eNodeB cells that forbid VoIP handovers are also filtered. VoipHoControlSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch
parameter specifies whether to enable this function.
When this switch is turned on, cells specified by EutranVoipHoBlkList are filtered when a UE is performing VoIP services.
When this switch is turned off, cells specified by EutranVoipHoBlkList are not filtered when a UE is performing VoIP services.
The ENodeBAlgoSwitch.EutranVoipSupportSwitch parameter indicates whether the VoIP services are allowed in the E-UTRAN cell.
When this switch is turned on, VoIP services are allowed in the E-UTRAN cell, which means that the establishment, handover in, admission, and reestablishment of
VoIP services are allowed.
When this switch is turned off, VoIP services are not allowed in the E-UTRAN cell, which means that the establishment, handover in, admission, and reestablishment of
VoIP services are not allowed.
NOTE:
Assume that eNodeB1 cells are neighboring cells of eNodeB2. It is recommended that eNodeB1 cells be added to the EutranVoipHoBlkList parameter of eNodeB2 if eNodeB1
forbids VoIP service handover in. Otherwise, the handover attempt fails.
The eNodeB then sends a handover request to the target cell at the top of the candidate cell list. If the handover request fails, the eNodeB sends the handover request to the next
target cell.
A cell with the best signal quality (as indicated in the measurement result) has the highest priority. If the measurement result of an intra-eNodeB cell is the same as that of an inter-
eNodeB cell, the eNodeB assigns the intra-eNodeB cell a higher priority to avoid signaling and data forwarding required in an inter-eNodeB handover.
If the handover preparation fails, the eNodeB initiates a handover attempt to the next best cell in the candidate cell list. If the eNodeB has tried all cells indicated in the
measurement report but failed to perform a handover, the eNodeB waits for the next measurement report from the UE.
If the handover succeeds, the target eNodeB (in an X2-based handover) or the MME (in an S1-based handover) sends a Release message to the source eNodeB after
data forwarding is complete. The source eNodeB then releases related resources.
If the handover fails, the UE performs a cell selection procedure and then initiates an RRC connection reestablishment procedure towards the selected cell. For details
about the retry and penalty mechanism upon air interface handover failure, see Overview of Mobility Management in Connected Mode.
If the handover admission fails, the eNodeB initiates a handover attempt to the next best cell in the candidate cell list. For details about the retry and penalty mechanism, see
Overview of Mobility Management in Connected Mode.
1. When the UE establishes a radio bearer, the source eNodeB sends the UE an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message that contains the measurement
configuration, which controls the measurements of the UE in RRC connected mode.
2. The UE sends measurement reports to the source eNodeB based on the measurement results.
3. The source eNodeB makes a handover decision based on the measurement reports.
4. After deciding that a handover is to be performed, the source eNodeB sends a Handover Request message to the target eNodeB, requesting the target eNodeB to
prepare for the handover.
5. The target eNodeB makes admission decisions. If resources can be granted by the target eNodeB, the target eNodeB performs admission control depending on the
QoS information about the Evolved Packet System (EPS) bearer.
6. The target eNodeB prepares layer 1 and layer 2 resources for the handover and then sends a Handover Request Acknowledge message to the source eNodeB.
7. The source eNodeB sends the UE an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message that contains the MobilityControlInfo IE, indicating that the handover should start.
NOTE:
Data forwarding starts when the source eNodeB sends the UE an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message that contains the MobilityControlInfo IE.
8. The UE performs a random access procedure towards the target eNodeB for uplink synchronization with the target eNodeB.
9. After successfully accessing the target cell, the UE sends the target eNodeB an RRC Connection Reconfiguration Complete message, indicating that the handover
procedure is complete. Subsequently, the target eNodeB can start sending data to the UE.
10. The downlink data path switching is performed.
11. The target eNodeB sends the source eNodeB a UE Context Release message to inform the source eNodeB of a handover success and to trigger the resource release
at the source eNodeB.
12. After receiving the UE Context Release message, the source eNodeB releases the radio and control-plane resources associated with the UE context.
Intra-frequency mobility management is applicable to intra-eNodeB handovers, intra-MME inter-eNodeB handovers, and inter-MME inter-eNodeB handovers. For either of the latter
two handover types, the signaling procedure varies depending on whether the X2 interface is available between the eNodeBs.
In the case of an intra-MME handover between eNodeBs where the X2 interface is unavailable, the signaling and the data forwarding between the two eNodeBs as
shown in Figure 3-3 are implemented over the S1 interface.
In the case of an inter-MME handover between eNodeBs where the X2 interface is unavailable, the signaling and the data forwarding between the two eNodeBs as
shown in Figure 3-3 are implemented over the S1 interface and Evolved Packet Core network (EPC), which is an indirect route compared with the route over the X2
interface.
In the case of an inter-MME handover between eNodeBs where the X2 interface is available, the signaling between the two eNodeBs as shown in Figure 3-3 is
implemented through the S1 interface and EPC, which is an indirect route compared with the route over the X2 interface. In addition, the data forwarding between them
is implemented over the X2 interface.
A successful reestablishment procedure, as shown in Figure 3-4, consists of the following steps:
1. The UE sends an RRC Connection Reestablishment Request message to the eNodeB to which the prepared cell belongs, to request the reestablishment of the RRC
connection.
2. The eNodeB responds with an RRC Connection Reestablishment message, indicating that it has accepted the request.
3. The UE performs the RRC connection reestablishment and sends an RRC Connection Reestablishment Complete message.
Figure 3-4 Successful RRC connection reestablishment procedure
If the RRC connection reestablishment fails, the UE enters the idle mode. A failed reestablishment procedure, as shown in Figure 3-5, consists of the following steps:
1. The UE sends an RRC Connection Reestablishment Request message to the eNodeB to which the prepared cell belongs, to request the reestablishment of the RRC
connection.
2. The eNodeB responds with an RRC Connection Reestablishment Reject message, indicating that it rejects the request.
The triggering condition for each feature or function is different, and the mobility management can mainly be divided into the following phases:
2. Handover decision
In the handover decision phase, the eNodeB checks the candidate cell list. Based on the check result, the eNodeB determines whether a handover needs to be
initiated and, if so, to which cell the UE is to be handed over.
3. Handover execution
In the handover execution phase, the eNodeB controls the procedure of UE handover to the target cell.
The eNodeB delivers measurement configuration for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement or event A2 for blind handover as follows:
If the UE is in RRC-connected mode, the eNodeB delivers measurement configuration for both event A2 for inter-frequency measurement and event A2 for blind
handover.
If the signal quality in the serving cell is lower than the specified threshold, the UE reports event A2 for inter-frequency measurement. After receiving the
report, the eNodeB delivers an inter-frequency measurement configuration.
If the signal quality in the serving cell further deteriorates and the eNodeB does not perform a handover for the UE, the UE reports event A2 for blind
handover. After receiving the report, the eNodeB considers that the serving cell can no longer provide services for the UE and performs a blind handover.
In the following scenarios, the eNodeB delivers measurement configuration for event A2 only for blind handover:
The InterFreqHoA2OptSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoSignalingOptSwitch parameter is selected, and the UE does not support inter-
frequency measurements.
The configured event A2 threshold for inter-frequency measurements is less than or equal to that for blind handover.
It is recommended that the ReduceInvalidA1A2RptSigSwitch option and the RsvdSwPara3_bit4 option of the eNBRsvdPara.RsvdSwPara3 parameter be selected on the live
network. When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA1A2TrigQuan is set to BOTH, as shown in Figure 4-1, the inter-frequency measurement procedure is as follows:
During the triggering and stopping of measurements, RSRP- and RSRQ-based procedures are mutually independent. This prevents premature event A1 delivering and invalid
event A1 reporting. In addition, this prevents the delivering of invalid event A1 contents. When an RSRP-triggered event A2 is received, RSRP-based measurement is triggered
irrespective of whether there is RSRQ-based measurement. When RSRP-triggered event A1 is received, RSRP-based measurement is stopped.

Figure 4-4 Triggering and stopping of measurement when events A2 and A1 are delivered simultaneously (inter-frequency measurement based on event A3)
4.1.1.1 Event A2
Event A2 indicates that the signal quality of the serving cell is lower than a threshold.
The entering and leaving conditions of event A2 are shown in Figure 4-5. For details about event A2, see section 5.5.4.3 "Event A2 (Serving becomes worse than threshold)" in
3GPP TS 36.331 V10.1.0.
The variables in the preceding formulas are described in Table 4-2 and Table 4-3. Thresholds related to event A2 vary according to events that are used to trigger inter-frequency
handovers.

quantity This parameter indicates whether RSRP or RSRQ is measured for events A1 and A2 that are
used for inter-frequency handovers based on event A4 or A5.
A3 InterFreq A1A2 IntraRatHoComm.A3InterFreqHoA1A2TrigQuan This is a common eNodeB-level parameter used for intra-RAT handovers.
Measurement TrigQuan This parameter indicates whether RSRP or RSRQ is measured for events A1 and A2 that are
used for inter-frequency handovers based on event A3.
Huawei eNodeBs allow different event A2 parameters to be set for target FDD and TDD frequencies so that coverage-based handovers can be preferentially triggered for FDD or
TDD frequencies.
The variables Ms and Hys for event A2 for target-based measurement are the same as those for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement. Table 4-5 lists the thresholds related to
event A2 for target-based measurement.
Table 4-5 Thresholds related to event A2 for target-based measurement
The eNodeB delivers measurement configurations for event A2 for target-based measurement as follows:
If the FDD and TDD threshold offsets are set to different values, the eNodeB delivers two measurement configurations for events A2, with one corresponding to an FDD
frequency and the other corresponding to a TDD frequency. After a UE reports an event A2 related to a frequency, the eNodeB delivers the measurement configuration
of the related frequency.
If the FDD and TDD threshold offsets are set to the same value, the eNodeB delivers one measurement configuration for event A2, without distinguishing between the
FDD and TDD frequencies. After a UE reports an event A2, the eNodeB delivers two measurement configurations, one for the FDD frequency and the other for the TDD
frequency.
Pay attention to the following points related to event A2 for target-based measurement:
If only either of the offset is set to -100, the inter-frequency measurement of an FDD or TDD frequency is not triggered.
If both offset values are set to -100, the effect is the same as those set to 0. In this case, the eNodeB sends an inter-frequency event A2, with the threshold set to the
event A2 threshold value.
If the calculated RSRP threshold is lower than the protocol-specified minimum value, the protocol-specified minimum value is used as the RSRP threshold.
If the calculated RSRP threshold is higher than the protocol-specified maximum value, the protocol-specified maximum value is used as the RSRP threshold.
4.1.1.2 Event A1
Event A1 indicates that the signal quality of the serving cell is higher than a threshold.
The entering and leaving conditions of event A1 are shown in Figure 4-6. For details about event A1, see section 5.5.4.2 "Event A1 (Serving becomes better than threshold)" in
3GPP TS 36.331 V10.1.0.
The variables in the formulas for event A1 are the same as those in the formulas for event A2. Thresholds related to event A1 also vary according to events that are used to trigger
inter-frequency handovers, as described in Table 4-6.

RSRP Threshold
Other parameters related to the event A1 report are the same as those related to event A2 report. For details, see Table 4-4.
You must set the thresholds related to event A1 to be higher than those related to event A2. If the RSRP threshold offset for FDD or TDD frequencies are set, the thresholds related
to event A1 must be greater than or equal to the sum of the thresholds related to event A2 and the offset.
Filter coefficients EUTRAN RSRP filter coefficient HoMeasComm.EutranFilterCoeffRSRP This is an eNodeB-level common parameter.
The FixedMeasObjIDSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter specifies the frequency priority for UEs without voice bearers. The
eNodeB selects the frequencies for measurement in descending order of frequency priority till the number of selected frequencies reaches the maximum. If all
frequencies with the same priority are selected and the number of frequencies for measurement exceeds the maximum, the eNodeB randomly selects frequencies with
this priority till the number of selected priorities reaches the maximum.
When this option is deselected, the frequency priority is determined by the EutranInterNFreq.ConnFreqPriority parameter. A larger value indicates a higher
priority. The eNodeB selects the frequencies for measurement in descending order of frequency priority till the number of selected frequencies reaches the
maximum.
When this option is selected, the frequency priority is determined by the EutranInterNFreq.MeasFreqPriority parameter. A larger value indicates a higher
priority. The eNodeB sets measurement object IDs based on frequency priorities to control the UE's actual measurement priorities. This ensures that the UE
preferentially reports the measurement reports on high-priority frequencies.
The VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter specifies the frequency priority for UEs with voice bearers.
When this option is selected, the frequency priority is determined by the EutranInterNFreq.VoipPriority parameter. A larger value of this parameter
indicates a higher priority. The eNodeB selects the frequencies with the highest priority for the UE. If the number of frequencies with the highest priority
exceeds the maximum, the eNodeB randomly selects frequencies from these frequencies.
When this option is deselected, the frequency priorities of VoIP UEs are the same as those of non-VoIP UEs.
The eNodeB delivers information about a cell for measurement only if the cell individual offset (CIO) of the cell is not set to the default value (0 dB). The measurement
priority of an inter-frequency neighboring cell is determined by the combination of the high bit and low bit specified by the EutranInterFreqNCell.CellMeasPriority and
EutranInterFreqNCell.CellIndividualOffset parameters, respectively.
For details about the maximum number of frequencies and the maximum number of neighboring cells, see Overview of Mobility Management in Connected Mode.
NOTE:
When Thresh1 of event A5 is less than or equal to the threshold of blind handover event A2, the eNodeB does not deliver measurement configuration for event A5.
If carrier aggregation (CA) is enabled and the EutranInterNFreq.InterFreqHoEventType parameter is set to EventA4(EventA4), the eNodeB will send a measurement
configuration for event A5 to trigger an inter-frequency handover when a CA UE reports an event A2 in the primary serving cell (PCell). For details, see Carrier
Aggregation.
When event A3 is received, or when events A4 and A5 are received and IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is not set to BOTH, handover is triggered after the event is
received.
When events A4 and A5 are received and IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set to BOTH, handover is triggered only after the two groups of measurement quantities
meet the handover condition.
4.1.3.1 Event A3
Event A3 triggers inter-frequency handovers the same way as it triggers intra-frequency handovers. For details, see 3.2 Triggering of an Intra-Frequency Handover.
All parameters (other than Ofn and Off) for event A3 that triggers inter-frequency handovers are the same as those for event A3 that triggers intra-frequency handovers. Table 4-8
lists the parameters related to event A3.

Event A4 indicates that the signal quality of a neighboring cell is higher than a threshold.
The entering and leaving conditions of event A4 are shown in Figure 4-7. For details about event A4, see section 5.5.4.5 "Event A4 (Neighbour becomes better than threshold)" in
3GPP TS 36.331 V10.1.0.

4.1.3.3 Event A5
Event A5 indicates that the signal quality of the serving cell is lower than threshold 1 (Thresh1) and the signal quality of a neighboring cell is higher than threshold 2 (Thresh 2).
The entering and leaving conditions of event A5 are shown in Figure 4-8. For details about event A5, see section 5.5.4.6 "Event A5 (PCell becomes worse than threshold1 and
neighbour becomes better than threshold2)" in 3GPP TS 36.331 V10.1.0.
Entering condition: Ms + Hys < Thresh1 and Mn + Ofn + Ocn - Hys > Thresh2
When event A5 is triggered, the eNodeB receives an event A5 from the UE.
Leaving condition: Ms - Hys > Thresh1 or Mn + Ofn + Ocn + Hys < Thresh2
If the leaving condition of event A5 is met, the UE no longer reports event A5.
Table 4-13 and Table 4-14 describe Thresh1 and Thresh2 for event A5 that triggers inter-frequency handover, respectively. All parameters (other than thresholds) for event A5 are
the same as those for event A4. For details, see Table 4-10 and Table 4-12.
Table 4-13 Thresh1 for event A5

plus EutranInterNFreq.IfHoThdRsrpOffset.
The eNodeB records the reports of event A2 for blind handover during handover and handles them if the handover preparation fails.
If the eNodeB receives a report of event A1 used to stop a blind handover from the UE before blind handover is completed, the eNodeB stops performing blind
handover.
If the EmcInterFreqBlindHoSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter is selected, the eNodeB performs a blind handover procedure for coverage-
based inter-frequency handover. The eNodeB selects an inter-frequency target cell when the UE sends a report of event A2 for blind handover.
Table 4-15 lists parameters related to events A1 and A2 for blind handover.
Table 4-15 Parameters related to events A1 and A2

result type is specified by the
InterRatHoComm.InterRatHoA1A2TrigQuan parameter.

Table 4-16 lists other parameters related to the event A1/A2 report for blind handover.

InterRAT A1A2 time to trigger InterRatHoCommGroup.InterRatHoA1A2TimeToTrig This parameter is set for each QCI.
InterRat A1A2 measurement trigger InterRatHoComm.InterRatHoA1A2TrigQuan This is a common parameter for inter-RAT handover and is set for each
quantity eNodeB.
This parameter specifies the Ms type and triggering quantity for events A1
and A2.
Event A2 for blind handover can be used to trigger both coverage-based inter-frequency blind redirection and inter-RAT blind handover. Coverage-based inter-frequency blind
redirection and inter-RAT blind handover share the same thresholds related to event A2. The working principles for event A2 for coverage-based inter-frequency blind redirection
and inter-RAT blind handover are similar. For details about event A2 for inter-RAT blind handover, see Inter-RAT Mobility Management in Connected Mode.
Target Selection
Figure 4-9 shows the target selection process for blind handover. The related parameters are described as follows:
In coverage-based inter-frequency blind handover, target cells must be the neighboring cells whose EutranInterFreqNCell.BlindHoPriority is set to a value within the
range of 1 to 16. A larger value indicates a higher priority.
The eNodeB preferentially selects a frequency with the highest priority for the redirection. The frequency priority is specified by the
EutranInterNFreq.ConnFreqPriority parameter. A larger value indicates a higher priority. When this parameter is set to 0, the frequency is not selected for redirection.
For a coverage-based blind handover, E-UTRAN TDD and E-UTRAN FDD are considered as two independent systems, and the CnOperatorHoCfg.FirstRatPri and
CnOperatorHoCfg.SecondRatPri parameters specify the priorities of E-UTRAN TDD and E-UTRAN FDD.
If the CnOperatorHoCfg.FirstRatPri parameter is set to EUTRAN, E-UTRAN TDD and E-UTRAN FDD are not prioritized.
If the CnOperatorHoCfg.SecondRatPri parameter is set to NULL, blind handover are performed only to frequencies of the network specified by the
CnOperatorHoCfg.FirstRatPri parameter.
Based on the QCIs of the services that are running on a UE, the eNodeB can divert the UE to one or certain appropriate co-coverage E-UTRAN frequencies by means of a service-
based inter-frequency handover to implement service steering.
Table 4-17 describes events for triggering/stopping measurement and handover during a service-based inter-frequency handover. Blind handover is not applied to service-based
inter-frequency handover.
Table 4-17 Events for triggering/stopping measurement and handover during a service-based inter-frequency handover

1. Set the service-based inter-frequency handover policy in the ServiceIfHoCfgGroup MO. Set the service-based inter-frequency handover policy (specified by the
ServiceIfHoCfgGroup.InterFreqHoState parameter) for a downlink frequency (specified by the ServiceIfDlEarfcnGrp.DlEarfcn parameter) to PERMIT_HO.
2. Associate a QCI (specified by CnOperatorStandardQci.Qci or ExtendedQci.ExtendedQci) with the service-based inter-frequency handover policy.
3. If the UE performs services with this QCI, which has the highest priority, and the frequency of the serving cell of the UE is not within the target frequency range
expected to carry the services, the eNodeB delivers event A4 measurement configuration. Then, the UE measures the frequency or frequency group with the highest
priority in the target frequency group (specified by the ServiceIfDlEarfcnGrp.ServiceHoFreqPriority parameter).
If the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.ServiceHoMultiTargetFreqSw parameter is set to ON, services with this QCI in a service group can be transferred to different E-UTRAN frequencies
specified in the ServiceIfDlEarfcnGrp MO. When this parameter is set to OFF, services with this QCI in a service group can be transferred only to the frequency with an index
(specified by ServiceIfDlEarfcnGrp.DlEarfcnIndex) of 0.
The QCI priority is specified by the CellStandardQci.QciPriorityForHo parameter. A smaller value indicates a higher priority.
If the configurations for QCI priorities are the same, handover parameter selection is based on the QCI priority specified in 3GPP. For details, see section 6.1.7 "Standardized QoS
characteristics" in 3GPP TS 23.203 V10.3.0, as listed in Table 4-18.

Load Based Interfreq RSRP threshold InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqLoadBasedHoA4ThdRSRP These parameters are set for each QCI.
The IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter
determines the threshold to be used.
If IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan is set to
BOTH, two A4 events are delivered, with one being
RSRP-based and the other RSRQ-based. When the
entering condition for either of event A4 is met, the UE
reports event A4.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan is set
to RSRP or RSRQ, the eNodeB delivers a measurement
configuration related to event A4 for which the triggering
quantity is RSRP or RSRQ, respectively.
The IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan parameter
determines the reporting quantity to be included in the measurement
reports after event A4 is triggered.
Parameter Name Parameter ID Parameter Description
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set
Load Based Interfreq RSRQ threshold InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqLoadBasedHoA4ThdRSRQ to BOTH, two MRs are reported, with one being RSRP-
based and the other RSRQ-based. An inter-frequency
handover is triggered only when both measurement
quantities meet the condition.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set
to SAME_AS_TRIG_QUAN(Same as Trig Quan),
service-based measurement report type for event A4 is the
same as the measurement triggering quantity.
The event A4 triggering quantity for service-based inter-frequency handovers is determined by the IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter. Other parameters
related to the event A4 report for service-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as the parameters related to the event A4 report for coverage-based inter-frequency
measurement. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.
When a service-based event A4 measurement report is sent, the eNodeB checks the handover history of the UE if the service corresponding to the QCI allowed for handover is
interrupted.
If the target frequency for the handover is the same as the frequency of the cell where the UE is previously located, the handover is not performed to prevent ping-pong
handovers.
Otherwise, the eNodeB triggers service-based inter-frequency handover for the UE.
NOTE:
Obtaining the distance between the UE and the eNodeB is dependent on the uplink timing advance (TA). The eNodeB measures the TA of a UE and sends the TA value to the UE
through a timing advance command.The TA accuracy is 16 Ts.
Ts is the minimum time unit at the physical layer in LTE. The formula for calculating Ts is as follows: Ts = 1/(15000 x 2048)s = 32.55 ns.
The formula for calculating the distance in a distance-based inter-frequency handover is as follows: 16 Ts/2 x Radio transmitting speed. That is, 16 x 32.55 ns /2 x 3 x 10^8 m/s =
78.12 m.
Table 4-20 lists the triggering and stopping conditions for triggering/stopping measurement and handover during a distance-based inter-frequency handover. Blind handover is not
applied to distance-based inter-frequency handover.

BOTH, two A4 events are delivered, with one being RSRP-
based and the other being RSRQ-based. When the entering
condition for either of the A4 events is met, the UE reports
the A4 event.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan is set to
RSRP or RSRQ, the eNodeB delivers a measurement
configuration related to event A4 for which the triggering
quantity is RSRP or RSRQ, respectively.
CoverageBased Interfreq RSRQ threshold InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4ThdRSRQ The IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan parameter
determines the reporting quantity to be included in the measurement
reports after event A4 is triggered.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set to
BOTH, two MRs are reported, with one being RSRP-based
and the other being RSRQ-based. An inter-frequency
handover is triggered only when both measurement
quantities meet the condition.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set to
SAME_AS_TRIG_QUAN(Same as Trig Quan), distance-
based measurement report type for event A4 is the same as
the measurement triggering quantity.
The event A4 triggering quantity for distance-based inter-frequency handovers is determined by the IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter. Other parameters
related to the event A4 report for distance-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as the parameters related to the event A4 report for coverage-based inter-frequency
measurement. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.
Blind Handover N/A UL quality becomes further worse, but the eNodeB N/A
does not receive any event A4 reports.
The eNodeB delivers event A4 measurement configurations when both the following conditions are met:
The uplink MCS index is smaller than the CellHoParaCfg.UlBadQualHoMcsThd parameter value.
The difference between the actual uplink data transmission IBLER and the target IBLER convergence value is greater than the
CellHoParaCfg.UlBadQualHoIblerThd parameter value.
Event A4 measurement control is stopped when either of the following conditions is met:
The uplink MCS index is greater than or equal to the CellHoParaCfg.UlBadQualHoMcsThd parameter value.
The difference between the actual uplink data transmission IBLER and the target IBLER convergence value is smaller than or equal to the

When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan is set to

configuration related to event A4 for which the triggering
quantity is RSRP or RSRQ, respectively.
The IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan parameter
determines the reporting quantity to be included in the measurement
reports after event A4 is triggered.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set to
BOTH, two A4 events are reported, with one being RSRP-
based and the other RSRQ-based.
When IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan is set to
SAME_AS_TRIG_QUAN(Same as Trig Quan), UL-quality-
based inter-frequency measurement report type for event A4
is the same as the measurement triggering quantity.
The event A4 triggering quantity for UL-quality-based inter-frequency handovers is determined by the IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter. Other parameters
related to the event A4 report for UL-quality-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as the parameters related to the event A4 report for coverage-based inter-frequency
measurement. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.
If the uplink quality for the UE further deteriorates and meets all the following conditions, the eNodeB considers that service drops may occur due to the poor uplink quality. In this
situation, the eNodeB performs blind handover for the UE.
The uplink MCS index is smaller than the CELLHOPARACFG.UlBadQualHoMcsThd parameter value.
The difference between the actual uplink data transmission IBLER, the target IBLER convergence value, and the CELLHOPARACFG.UlBadQualHoIblerThd
parameter value is greater than 10%.
The eNodeB fails to receive the event A4 measurement report.
Target Selection
The target selection process of UL-quality-based inter-frequency blind handover is the same as that of coverage-based inter-frequency blind handover. For details, see 4.1.4 Blind
Handover.
It is recommended that the A2BasedFreqPriHoSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.FreqPriorityHoSwitch parameter be deselected in multi-band same-coverage
networking scenarios. When cells on a low band (for example, 900 MHz) and a high band (for example, 1800 MHz) have the same coverage, a frequency-priority-based
inter-frequency handover can be performed to preferentially carry services in the high band while sparing the low band for continuous coverage. Figure 4-11 shows
frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover.
Figure 4-11 Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover
Table 4-24 lists the triggering and stopping conditions for triggering/stopping measurement and handover during a frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover in
this scenario.
Table 4-24 Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover triggered by event A1
It is recommended that the A2BasedFreqPriHoSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.FreqPriorityHoSwitch parameter be selected in multi-band different-coverage
networking scenarios. When the bands with different bandwidth have different coverage, a frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover can be performed so that
the band with higher bandwidth carries services when the network load is light.
Table 4-25 lists the triggering and stopping conditions for triggering/stopping measurement and handover during a frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover in
this scenario.
Table 4-25 Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover triggered by event A2
When the eNodeB receives an event A2 measurement report, an inter-frequency measurement is triggered and the eNodeB delivers event A4 measurement
configurations. Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover triggered by event A2 does not support blind handover.
If the option is selected, the eNodeB sends measurement configuration for event A1 when the UE sets up an RRC connection, and sends measurement configuration
for event A2 after it receives an event A1 from the UE. This reduces the reporting of invalid event A2.
If the option is deselected, the eNodeB sends measurement configuration for both event A2 and event A1 when the UE sets up an RRC connection.
When frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover is enabled, the eNodeB delivers the event for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement in the following
scenarios:
When the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is deselected, the eNodeB delivers event A1 when the initial
UE context is established.
When the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is selected, the eNodeB delivers event A1 as follows:
For UEs without voice bearers, the eNodeB delivers event A1 when the initial UE context is established.
For UEs with voice bearers, the eNodeB delivers event A1 when the UE releases the voice bearers.
In the multi-band same-coverage networking scenario, event A1 is used as the triggering condition. Working principles of event A1 for triggering frequency-priority-based inter-
frequency measurement is the same as those of event A1 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. Parameters (other than those for thresholds and triggering
quantity) in the measurement configuration for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as those for coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. For
details, see 4.1.1.2 Event A1. Parameters for thresholds and triggering quantity are listed in Table 4-26.

Freq Priority Based Interfreq A1 RSRQ InterFreqHoGroup.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1ThdRsrq and the other RSRQ-based. When the entering condition for

If IntraRatHoComm.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1TrigQuan is set to
RSRP or RSRQ, the UE reports an A1 event only when the
entering condition for the related A1 event is met.
A1A2 Measurement trigger quantity of Freq IntraRatHoComm.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1TrigQuan This is a common eNodeB-level parameter used for intra-RAT handovers.

In the multi-band different-coverage networking scenario, event A2 is used as the triggering condition. Working principles of event A2 for triggering frequency-priority-based inter-
frequency measurement is the same as those of event A2 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. Parameters (other than those for thresholds and triggering
quantity) in the measurement configuration for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as those for coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. For

Parameter Name of the Threshold Parameter ID of the Threshold Parameter Description
Stopping of Inter-Frequency Measurement
In the multi-band same-coverage networking scenario, the eNodeB stops delivering the inter-frequency measurement configuration in the following scenarios:
When the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is deselected and the eNodeB receives an event A2 report
for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement, the eNodeB stops event A1 for triggering frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement.
When the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is selected, the eNodeB stops event A1 as follows:
For UEs without voice bearers, inter-frequency measurement stops when the eNodeB receives event A2 for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency
measurement.
For UEs that intend to perform voice services, inter-frequency measurement stops when the UEs set up voice bearers.
Working principles of event A2 for stopping frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement is the same as those of event A2 for stopping coverage-based inter-frequency
measurement. Parameters (other than those for thresholds and triggering quantity) in the measurement configuration for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement are
the same as those for coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. For details, see 4.1.1.1 Event A2. Parameters for thresholds and triggering quantity are listed in Table 4-27.
Table 4-28 Parameters for event A2 for stopping frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement
Freq Priority Based Interfreq A2 RSRP InterFreqHoGroup.FreqPriInterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp These parameters are set for each QCI.
threshold The IntraRatHoComm.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1TrigQuan parameter
determines the threshold to be used.
If IntraRatHoComm.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1TrigQuan is set to
BOTH, two A2 events are reported, with one being RSRP-based
Freq Priority Based Interfreq A2 RSRQ InterFreqHoGroup.FreqPriInterFreqHoA2ThdRsrq and the other RSRQ-based. When the entering condition for
threshold either of the A2 events is met, the UE reports the A2 event.
If IntraRatHoComm.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1TrigQuan is set to
RSRP or RSRQ, the UE reports an A2 event only when the
entering condition for the related A2 event is met.
A1A2 Measurement trigger quantity of Freq IntraRatHoComm.FreqPriInterFreqHoA1TrigQuan This is a common eNodeB-level parameter used for intra-RAT handovers.
Priority This parameter specifies the Ms type and triggering quantity for events A1
and A2.
The triggering quantity for event A2 for frequency-priority-based inter-
frequency measurement is the same as that for event A1 for frequency-
priority-based inter-frequency measurement.
In the multi-band different-coverage networking scenario, if a UE has performed gap-assisted measurements for a period of time (internally set to 3s) but fails to receive the
corresponding measurement report, the eNodeB stops the inter-frequency measurement.
When the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is selected, the eNodeB stops measurement as follows:
For UEs that do not carry voices, if the gap-assisted measurements have been performed for a period of time (internally set to 3s) but the eNodeB does not receive the
corresponding measurement report, the eNodeB stops the inter-frequency measurement.
For UEs that intend to perform voice services, the eNodeB stops event A2 for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement when the UEs set up voice
bearers.
If EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag is set to ENABLE(Enable), the frequency is a target frequency for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency
measurement. If the number of target frequencies to be measured exceeds the maximum number allowed by 3GPP specifications, the eNodeB contains random
frequencies in the measurement configuration.
If EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag is set to DISABLE(Disable), the selected inter-frequency neighboring cells must have a frequency priority ranging
from 17 to 32. Only the frequencies of these cells are measured. The frequency priority is set by the EutranInterFreqNCell.BlindHoPriority parameter. If the number of
target frequencies to be measured exceeds the maximum number allowed by 3GPP specifications, the eNodeB sorts the frequencies according to the value of the
EutranInterFreqNCell.BlindHoPriority parameter and selects the frequencies of the neighboring cells with high priorities.
Blind handover is triggered when the eNodeB receives an event A1 report from a UE and blind handover is enabled. Blind handover is enabled when the
FreqPriorIFBlindHOSwitch switch under the CellAlgoSwitch.FreqPriorityHoSwitch parameter is turned on.
Target Selection
The target selection process of frequency-priority-based inter-frequency blind handover is the same as that of coverage-based inter-frequency blind handover. For details, see
4.1.4 Blind Handover.
In frequency-priority-based blind handover, the target inter-frequency neighboring cell must have a blind-handover priority ranging from 17 to 32. The frequency priority is set by the
EutranInterFreqNCell.BlindHoPriority parameter.
If an inter-frequency neighboring cell is not configured with a blind-handover priority, the subsequent processing depends on the setting of the
EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag parameter.
If EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag is set to ENABLE(Enable), measurement is performed. The frequency of the neighboring cell is a target frequency. If
the number of target frequencies to be measured exceeds the maximum number allowed by 3GPP specifications, the eNodeB contains random frequencies in the
measurement configuration.
If EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag is set to DISABLE(Disable), measurement is not performed.
The candidate cell list generated for coverage-based inter-frequency handovers is controlled by the CellAlgoSwitch.CovBasedInterFreqHoMode parameter.
This parameter has three values: HANDOVERIMMEDIATELY, BASEDONSIGNALSTRENGTH, and BASEDONFREQPRIORITY. Figure 4-12 shows the candidate cell
list generation procedure when parameter configurations are different.
For other inter-frequency handovers, the candidate cell list is generated based on the measurement report.
Figure 4-12 Candidate cell list generation procedure for coverage-based inter-frequency handover
As shown in Figure 4-12, the IntraRatHoComm.CovBasedIfHoWaitingTimer parameter specifies the timer for candidate cell list generation during coverage-based inter-
frequency handovers.
When the timer is set to 0, handover decision is started after candidate cell list is generated according to measurement report.
In frequency-priority-based handover mode, after the timer expires, the eNodeB performs handover attempt according to the frequency priority sequence specified in
the measurement report. If there are frequencies with the same priority, a random frequency is selected for handover attempt.
NOTE:
Frequency-priority-based handover mode refers to the handover-waiting mode used in the coverage-based inter-frequency handover procedure. Specifically, the
eNodeB sorts measurement reports based on the frequency priority.
If all the cells fail after the handover attempt is complete, the eNodeB waits until the UE sends the next measurement report. After receiving the measurement report, the eNodeB
no longer starts the timer to wait but performs handover decision immediately.
The eNodeB first filters out the following cells from the candidate cell list:
Forbidden neighboring cells in the areas indicated by the IE Handover Restriction List in the INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP REQUEST message sent from the MME
When a UE is performing VoLTE services, cells that forbid VoLTE handovers are also filtered. The VoipHoControlSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch
parameter specifies whether to enable this function.
When this switch is turned on, cells specified by EutranVoipHoBlkList are filtered when a UE is performing VoLTE services.
When this switch is turned off, cells specified by EutranVoipHoBlkList are not filtered when a UE is performing VoLTE services.
Load Decision
If the handover target cell is an intra-site cell, the source cell checks the load status of the target cells. If any operator's target cell is in the load balancing status, the cell is not
selected as a candidate cell. For details about the load status of the target cell, see MLB.
When the InterFreqMlbSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MlbAlgoSwitch parameter is turned on, whether inter-frequency handover based on frequency priority is triggered is
determined by cell load status. The ReduceInvalidFreqPriHoSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoSignalingOptSwitch parameter specifies whether to enable this
function.
When this switch is turned on, inter-frequency handover based on frequency priority is not triggered if the target cell is in the load balancing status.
When this switch is turned off, whether to trigger inter-frequency handover based on frequency priority is not related to the load of the target cell.
The source eNodeB applies a penalty mechanism on UEs that perform unnecessary handovers when its handover admission fails. This prevents a large number of initiated
handover attempts from affecting the target eNodeB, especially when the eNodeB has insufficient resources. Unnecessary handovers include:
Sequence Decision
The eNodeB then sends a handover request to the target cell at the top of the filtered candidate cell list. If the handover request fails, the eNodeB sends the handover request to
the next target cell, as described in Table 4-30.
Table 4-30 Sequence of handover requests to be sent by the eNodeB
Measurement A handover request is sent to the cell with the best signal quality.
If the measurement results are the same, the eNodeB assigns the intra-eNodeB cell a higher priority to avoid signaling and
data forwarding required in an inter-eNodeB handover.
In handover based on frequency priority, a random cell is selected as the target cell when the cell measurement results are
the same.
Blind handover A handover request is sent to a cell or frequency that has the highest priority. If multiple cells have the highest priority, the
eNodeB randomly selects a cell for blind handover.
In handover based on frequency priority, a random cell is selected as the target cell when the priorities are the same.
For a measurement procedure, the eNodeB waits until the UE sends the next measurement report.
For a blind handover procedure, the eNodeB finishes the handover procedure.
If this option is selected, the handover decision is triggered only when all QCIs are successfully admitted.
If this option is deselected, the handover decision is triggered when any of the QCIs is successfully admitted.
The eNodeB provides the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.EutranVoipSupportSwitch parameter, which prevents UEs performing VoIP services from being handed over to an eNodeB that
does not support VoIP.
When this switch is turned on, VoIP services are allowed in the E-UTRAN cell, which means that the establishment, handover in, admission, and reestablishment of
VoIP services are allowed.
When this switch is turned off, VoIP services are not allowed in the E-UTRAN cell, which means that the establishment, handover in, admission, and reestablishment of
VoIP services are not allowed.
Assume that eNodeB1 cells are neighboring cells of eNodeB2. It is recommended that eNodeB1 cells be added to the EutranVoipHoBlkList parameter of eNodeB2 if eNodeB1
forbids VoIP service handover in. Otherwise, the handover will fail due to handover penalty.
The eNodeB selects the handover procedure for all measurement-based handovers.
The procedure selection for blind handover is as follows:
The eNodeB selects the redirection procedure for coverage-based and UL-quality-based blind handover. Redirections are performed only on non-VoIP UEs,
not on VoIP UEs.
The eNodeB selects the handover procedure for frequency-priority-based blind handover.
When the FDD or TDD cells of the same eNodeB are served by different MMEs, only the redirection procedure can be selected for coverage-based inter-frequency
handover between FDD and TDD cells.
This is because there is a possibility that the MME cannot be changed during a handover in such a case. For details about such MME configurations, see S1-Flex.
Other execution mechanisms for inter-frequency handover are the same as those for intra-frequency handover. For details, see 3.4 Handover Execution.

Coverage-based inter-frequency handovers support inter-frequency blind redirection in the absence of neighbor relationship configurations. To use inter-frequency blind redirection
in the absence of neighbor relationship configurations, ensure that RAN sharing information about inter-frequency frequencies is configured. The parameters for RAN sharing and
LOFD-001112 MOCN Flexible Priority Based Camping are mutually exclusive. Therefore, if inter-frequency blind redirection in the absence of neighbor relationship configurations is
used, LOFD-001112 MOCN Flexible Priority Based Camping cannot be used.
Impacted Features
If coverage-based inter-frequency handover is used, you are advised not to use other inter-frequency handover features for multiple different non-serving E-UTRA frequencies.
Otherwise, ping-pong handovers between frequencies may occur due to differences in triggering conditions for different types of inter-frequency handovers.
If other inter-frequency handover features need to be used for multiple non-serving E-UTRA frequencies with coverage-based inter-frequency handover enabled, event A4
thresholds for those inter-frequency handover features must be properly set. The event A4 threshold for each type of inter-frequency handover must be higher than the event A2
threshold for coverage-based inter-frequency handover to ensure that a coverage-based inter-frequency measurement is not triggered immediately after a UE is handed over to the
target frequency.
When inter-frequency measurement frequency priority control in the Coverage Based Inter-frequency Handover feature is enabled for VoLTE UEs, the VoLTE settings must be the
same among frequencies if the service-based inter-frequency handover switch is turned on. Meanwhile, the inter-frequency measurement frequency priority control does not take
effect for VoLTE UEs.

If the target cell is an intra-eNodeB cell and the load of the target cell meets the conditions of selecting candidate neighboring cells in non-exchange MLB
mode, the source cell does not initiate a service-based inter-frequency handover to the target cell or other unnecessary handovers.
If the target cell is an inter-eNodeB cell, and the target cell meets the conditions of triggering MLB by transferring UL-sync UEs, the eNodeB rejects
unnecessary handover requests, including S1-based handover requests with the cause value being Resource optimization handover or X2-based handover
requests with the cause value being Handover Optimization.

It is advised not to enable multiple inter-frequency handover features on multiple inter-frequencies. However, the coverage-based inter-frequency handover feature is an
exception. Otherwise, ping-pong handovers between frequencies may occur due to differences in triggering conditions for different types of inter-frequency handovers.
If other inter-frequency handover features need to be used for multiple frequencies with coverage-based inter-frequency handover enabled, event A4 thresholds for
those inter-frequency handover features must be properly set. The event A4 threshold for each type of inter-frequency handover must be higher than the event A2

6 Network Impact
For coverage-based intra-frequency, coverage-based inter-frequency, and service-based inter-frequency handovers, service drop rate may be affected. The following describes the
methods of identifying and handling such situations.
Certain UEs report to support inter-duplex-mode measurement but actually they do not support inter-duplex-mode measurement. When such UEs exist on the live network, the
L.RRC.ReEst.ReconfFail.Att counter indicates a large number of RRC connection reestablishements. This affects the service drop rate on the live network. In this case, you are
advised to enable LTE inter-duplex-mode measurement optimization. This function is controlled by the RsvdSwPara3_bit6 option of the ENBRSVDPARA.RsvdSwPara3
parameter.
NOTE:
After this function is enabled, UEs supporting inter-duplex-mode measurement but not supporting inter-duplex-mode handover cannot be transferred to an inter-duplex-mode
network through measurement-based redirection. Enabling this function does not affect UEs supporting both inter-duplex-mode measurement and inter-duplex-mode handover.
For details about the impact of each function on the network, see the corresponding section.
No impact.
Network Performance
Coverage-based intra-frequency handovers reduce interference from intra-frequency neighboring cells on an intra-frequency network, decreasing the call drop rate.
No impact.
Network Performance
With coverage-based inter-frequency handovers, the coverage in areas with weak LTE coverage or coverage holes can be supplemented by inter-frequency neighboring cells,
decreasing the call drop rate.
The inter-frequency measurement priority control function allows VoIP UEs to be handed over to the optimal frequency. This reduces the number of handovers of VoIP UEs during
continuous mobility. It is required that the frequency with the best signal quality can be measured by VoIP UEs. Otherwise, VoIP UEs experience service drops due to lack of
measurements on neighboring cells on such a frequency. When this function is enabled, VoIP UEs are concentrated in the cells on the frequency with the best signal quality. If the
bandwidth of such a frequency is small, the VoIP capacity may be limited.

Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for Newly Deployed eNodeBs
Enter the values of related parameters in a summary data file, which also contains other data for the new eNodeBs to be deployed. Then, import the summary data file into the
Configuration Management Express (CME) for batch configuration. For detailed instructions, see section "Creating eNodeBs in Batches" in the initial configuration guide for the
eNodeB.
The summary data file may be a scenario-specific file provided by the CME or a customized file, depending on the following conditions:
Related managed objects (MOs) are contained in a scenario-specific summary data file. In this situation, set the parameters in the MOs, and then verify and save the
file.
Some related MOs are not contained in a scenario-specific summary data file. In this situation, customize a summary data file to include the MOs before you can set the

Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to activate a feature on existing eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure is as follows:
1. Choose CME > Advanced > Customize Summary Data File (U2000 client mode), or choose Advanced > Customize Summary Data File (CME client mode), to
customize a summary data file for batch reconfiguration.
NOTE:
For context-sensitive help on a current task in the client, press F1.
2. Choose CME > LTE Application > Export Data > Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client mode), or choose LTE Application > Export Data >
Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode), to export the eNodeB data stored on the CME into the customized summary data file.
3. In the summary data file, set the parameters in the MOs listed in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for Newly Deployed eNodeBs and close the file.
4. Choose CME > LTE Application > Import Data > Import Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client mode), or choose LTE Application > Import Data >
Import Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode), to import the summary data file into the CME.
5. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode), or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts
(CME client mode), to export and activate the incremental scripts.
On the CME, set the parameters listed in the "Data Preparation" section for a single eNodeB. The procedure is as follows:
1. In the planned data area, click Base Station in the upper left corner of the configuration window.
2. In area 1 shown in Figure 7-1, select the eNodeB to which the MOs belong.
Figure 7-1 MO search and configuration window
3. On the Search tab page in area 2, enter an MO name, for example, CELL.
4. In area 3, double-click the MO in the Object Name column. All parameters in this MO are displayed in area 4.
5. Set the parameters in area 4 or 5.
6. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode), or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts
(CME client mode), to export and activate the incremental scripts.
1. Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command, and select the IntraFreqCoverHoSwitch option under the Handover Algo switch parameter.
2. Run the following commands to add neighbor relationships with intra-frequency E-UTRAN cells:
a. (Optional) ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELL, which is required when the intra-frequency neighboring cell is under a different eNodeB from the local cell.
b. (Optional) ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELLPLMN, which is used to configure the PLMN list for an external E-UTRAN cell when the neighboring E-UTRAN
cell works in RAN sharing mode.
c. ADD EUTRANINTRAFREQNCELL
1. Trace messages over the Uu interface on the U2000 client after UEs access the network. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message. If the message contains
measurement configuration of event A3 for a coverage-based intra-frequency handover, you can infer that coverage-based intra-frequency handover has been
activated.
2. Trace messages over the Uu interface while the UE is moving towards an intra-frequency neighboring cell. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message, which is a
handover command. If the message contains target cell access information, you can infer that coverage-based intra-frequency handover has been triggered.
7.1.7 Deactivation
Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is similar to that for feature activation described in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
for Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify related parameter described below.
Table 7-2 Parameter related to coverage-based intra-frequency handovers
ENodeBAlgoSwitch ENodeBAlgoSwitch Handover Algo switch Clear the IntraFreqCoverHoSwitch check box.
On the CME, set the parameters listed in each scenario for a single eNodeB. For detailed instructions, see Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration for feature activation.
To deactivate coverage-based intra-frequency handover, disable its algorithm by running the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command and clear the IntraFreqCoverHoSwitch
option under the Handover Algo switch parameter.
When the intra-frequency handover success rate is low, check neighboring cell configurations, handover parameter configurations, and signal coverage.
When the service drop rate is high, check the intra-frequency handover success rate and outgoing intra-frequency handover preparation success rate. If the outgoing intra-
frequency handover preparation success rate is also low, check for abnormal neighboring cells according to "Number of Incoming Handover Failures for Different Causes in a Cell"
and optimize abnormal cells.

triggering event A3 but also a higher probability of incorrect handover decisions and
ping-pong handovers.
It is recommended that the default value be used. You can suitably decrease the value
in areas with slight signal fluctuation.
Intrafreq IntraFreqHoGroup.IntraFreqHoA3Offset Network plan This parameter specifies the offset for event A3 associated with intra-frequency
handover offset (negotiation not handover. A larger value causes a lower probability of triggering event A3. A smaller
required) value causes a higher probability.
It is recommended that you adjust the parameter value based on the application
scenario. Increase the parameter value if premature intra-frequency handovers occur.
Decrease the parameter value if delayed intra-frequency handovers occur.
Intrafreq IntraFreqHoGroup.IntraFreqHoA3TimeToTrig Network plan This parameter specifies the time-to-trigger for event A3 associated with intra-
handover time to (negotiation not frequency handover. Setting an appropriate triggering delay effectively reduces the
trigger required) average number of handovers and the number of wrong handovers, preventing
unnecessary handovers. The average number of handovers has a negative correlation
with the time-to-trigger. At the same time, an excessively large value of the time-to-
trigger results in a high risk of service drops.
It is recommended that you adjust the parameter value with
IntraFreqHoGroup.IntraFreqHoA3Offset based on the application scenario. Increase
the parameter value if premature intra-frequency handovers occur. Decrease the
parameter value if delayed intra-frequency handovers occur.
The following table provides the parameter that must be set in the EutranIntraFreqNCell MO to adjust cell individual offset for the intra-frequency neighboring cells.
Cell individual offset EutranIntraFreqNCell.CellIndividualOffset Network plan This parameter affects the probability of reporting intra-frequency measurement
(negotiation not events. A larger parameter value indicates a higher probability.
required) If there are multiple target cells for the intra-frequency handover and related
handover parameters need to be optimized, you can decrease this parameter
value for a neighboring cell to reduce the possibility of the handover to the
neighboring cell, or you can increase this parameter value for a neighboring cell
to raise the possibility of the handover to the neighboring cell.
Max report cell IntraRatHoComm.IntraRatHoMaxRprtCell Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the maximum number of cells to be included in
number not required) each intra-frequency or inter-frequency measurement report after the
corresponding event is triggered. Set this parameter to a larger value if the
eNodeB requires more candidate cells to make a handover decision. An
excessively large value, however, causes a waste of air interface resources.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
Measurement report IntraRatHoComm.IntraRatHoRprtAmount Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the number of intra-frequency or inter-frequency
amount not required) periodical measurement reports to be sent after the corresponding event is
triggered. Set this parameter to a larger value if the eNodeB requires more
measurement reports to make a handover decision. An excessively large
parameter value, however, causes a waste of air interface resources.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
A3 measurement IntraRatHoComm.IntraFreqHoA3TrigQuan Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the triggering quantity for event A3 associated with
trigger quantity not required) intra-frequency handover. The parameter can be either RSRP or RSRQ.
RSRQ-based measurement results reflect signal quality in real time,
whereas RSRP-based measurement results are stable with little signal
fluctuation.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
A3 measurement IntraRatHoComm.IntraFreqHoA3RprtQuan Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the reporting quantity to be included in the
report quantity not required) measurement reports after event A3 associated with intra-frequency
handover is triggered. The parameter can be either the same as the
triggering quantity for this event A3 or both RSRP and RSRQ. That is, the
measurement results of the serving cell and neighboring cells can be RSRP-
based, RSRQ-based, or both in A3-related measurement reports.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
Intrafreq IntraRatHoComm.IntraFreqHoRprtInterval Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the interval between the reports that are triggered
measurement report not required) by event A3 associated with intra-frequency handover. A smaller value
interval causes more measurement reports and greater consumption of air interface
resources, but a higher probability of triggering handovers. An excessively
large parameter value, however, causes a long delay in retries and a low
handover success rate.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
7.1.10 Troubleshooting
Fault Description
An eNodeB may not initiate a handover procedure upon receipt of an event A3 measurement report.
Fault Handling
When this problem occurs, perform the following steps to determine whether it has occurred because the target cell has not been configured as a neighboring cell. This section
uses PCI of 136 as an example.
1. Check the messages over the Uu interface and locate the PCI of the neighboring cell in the measurement report.
2. Run the LST EUTRANEXTERNALCELL command to list all external E-UTRAN cells of the eNodeB, run the LST CELL command to list all local cells of the eNodeB,
and check these lists for the cell whose PCI equals 136.
If this cell can be found, go to 4.
If this cell cannot be found, the target cell has not been configured as an external cell. To solve this problem, go to 3.
3. Run the commands in 2 to locate the CGI of the neighboring cell with PCI being 136. Then, run the ADD EUTRANINTRAFREQNCELL command to add the CGI to the
EutranIntraFreqNCell MO.
4. Run the ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELL and ADD EUTRANINTRAFREQNCELL commands to add the CGI of the neighboring cell with PCI being 136 to the
EutranExternalCell and EutranIntraFreqNCell MOs.

By default, the inter-frequency handover parameter group Group0 is used for services with all QCIs. To apply different inter-frequency handover parameter groups to services
based on the QCI, the corresponding parameter group ID must be changed.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the CellStandardQci MO to configure parameter groups for services with standard QCIs.

cells.
Cell Measure Priority EutranInterFreqNCell.CellMeasPriority Network plan (negotiation not Neighboring cells with optimal network coverage are easy to be
required) measured and quickly meet handover conditions. You are advised to
set this parameter to HIGH_PRIORITY(High Priority) for such
neighboring cells and set this parameter to LOW_PRIORITY(Low
Priority) for other neighboring cells.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the EutranInterNFreq MO to configure the event for triggering a coverage-based inter-frequency handover and to
configure the frequency priority used during the selection of a target frequency for blind redirection.
Inter-Freq HO trigger EutranInterNFreq.InterFreqHoEventType Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the event for triggering a coverage-based inter-
Event Type required) frequency handover. It can be set to event A3, event A4, or event A5.
Interference may be strong in the following scenarios: overlapping
scenario, inter-frequency with the same bandwidth, and inter-
frequency in the same frequency band. Event A3 is
recommended for coverage-based inter-frequency handovers in
such scenarios as it provides better handover performance.
When the interference of two cells is irrelevant, the absolute
threshold of signal quality is used as the handover criterion. Event
A4 is recommended for coverage-based inter-frequency
handovers in such scenario.
There is no recommended scenario for event A5.
Frequency Priority EutranInterNFreq.ConnFreqPriority Network plan (negotiation not Based on the frequency priority specified by this parameter, the eNodeB
for Connected Mode required) selects a target frequency for blind redirection or contains a frequency in a
measurement configuration. A larger value indicates a higher priority. If this
priority is set to 0 for a frequency, this frequency is not selected as the target
frequency for a blind redirection. Multiple frequencies can be configured with
the same priority. If multiple frequencies have the same priority, the eNodeB
randomly selects one from them.
You are advised to set this parameter for frequencies with continuous
coverage. If there are multiple frequencies with continuous coverage, set this
parameter to a larger value for a frequency in a lower frequency band. Set
this parameter to 0 for a frequency with non-continuous coverage.

FDD the same priority, set this parameter to EUTRAN.
Set this parameter based on the actual conditions.
Second RAT Priority CnOperatorHoCfg.SecondRatPri Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the priorities of E-UTRAN TDD and E-UTRAN
not required) FDD. To prioritize E-UTRAN TDD or E-UTRAN FDD, set this parameter to
EUTRAN_TDD or EUTRAN_FDD. If FirstRatPri is set to EUTRAN, set
SecondRatPri to NULL, indicating that E-UTRAN TDD and E-UTRAN FDD
are not prioritized.

required) neighboring E-UTRAN frequency. This parameter references the
corresponding parameter defined in the Cell MO on the peer eNodeB.
Add only the frequencies for blind handovers triggered when there is
no neighboring cells, and ensure that EARFCN has been set in an
EutranInterNFreq MO.
Mobile country code EutranNFreqRanShare.Mcc Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the MCC of the frequency for blind handovers
required) triggered when there is no neighboring cell.
This parameter references the corresponding parameter defined in the

Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to activate a feature on existing eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure.
1. The procedure is as follows: Choose CME > Advanced > Customize Summary Data File (U2000 client mode), or choose Advanced > Customize Summary Data
File (CME client mode), to customize a summary data file for batch reconfiguration.
NOTE:
For context-sensitive help on a current task in the client, press F1.
2. Choose CME > LTE Application > Export Data > Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client mode), or choose LTE Application > Export Data >
Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode), to export the eNodeB data stored on the CME into the customized summary data file.
3. In the summary data file, set the parameters in the MOs listed in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for Newly Deployed eNodeBs and close the file.
4. Choose CME > LTE Application > Import Data > Import Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client mode), or choose LTE Application > Import Data >
Import Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode), to import the summary data file into the CME.
5. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode), or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts
(CME client mode), to export and activate the incremental scripts.
On the CME, set the parameters listed in the "Data Preparation" section for a single eNodeB. The procedure is as follows:
1. In the planned data area, click Base Station in the upper left corner of the configuration window.
2. In area 1 shown in Figure 7-2, select the eNodeB to which the MOs belong.
Figure 7-2 MO search and configuration window
3. On the Search tab page in area 2, enter an MO name, for example, CELL.
4. In area 3, double-click the MO in the Object Name column. All parameters in this MO are displayed in area 4.
5. Set the parameters in area 4 or 5.
6. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode), or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts
(CME client mode), to export and activate the incremental scripts.
a. ADD EUTRANINTERNFREQ
b. (Optional) ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELL, which is required when the inter-frequency neighboring cell is under a different eNodeB from the local cell.
c. (Optional) ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELLPLMN, which is used to configure the PLMN list for an external E-UTRAN cell when the neighboring E-UTRAN
cell works in RAN sharing mode.

1. Trace messages over the Uu interface on the U2000 client after UEs access the network. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message. If the message contains
measurement configuration of events A1 and A2 for a coverage-based inter-frequency handover, you can infer that coverage-based inter-frequency handover has been
activated.
2. Trace messages over the Uu interface while the UE is moving towards the cell edge. After the eNodeB receives an A2-related measurement report from the UE, check
the RRC_CONN_RECFG message that contains the inter-frequency measurement configuration and A4-related measurement report information.
3. Trace messages over the Uu interface after the UE moves to the cell edge. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message, which is a handover command, after the
eNodeB receives an A4-related measurement report from the UE. If the message contains target cell access information, you can infer that coverage-based inter-
frequency handover has been triggered.
7.2.7 Deactivation
Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is similar to that for feature activation described in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
for Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify related parameters described in Table 7-4.
Table 7-4 Parameters related to coverage-based inter-frequency handovers
On the CME, set the parameters listed in each scenario for a single eNodeB. For detailed instructions, see Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration for feature activation.
To deactivate coverage-based inter-frequency handover, disable its algorithm by running the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command.
When the coverage-based inter-frequency outgoing handover success rate is low, check neighboring cell configurations, handover parameter configurations, and signal coverage.
When the service drop rate is high, check the inter-frequency handover success rate and inter-frequency handover preparation success rate. If the intra-frequency handover
preparation success rate is also low, check for abnormal neighboring cells according to "Number of Incoming Handover Failures for Different Causes in a Cell" and optimize
abnormal cells.
Table 7-5 lists the counters related to coverage-based inter-frequency and inter-duplex-mode handovers.

services with a specific QCI, you must create a parameter group, and
reference the parameter group ID to the corresponding QCI.
Interfreq A1A2 InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA1A2Hyst Network plan This parameter specifies the hysteresis for events A1 and A2 for inter-
hysteresis (negotiation not frequency measurement. A larger value causes a lower probability of
required) triggering event A1 or A2 for inter-frequency measurement. A smaller value
causes a higher probability.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
Interfreq A1A2 time InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA1A2TimeToTrig Network plan This parameter specifies the time-to-trigger for events A1 and A2 for inter-
to trigger (negotiation not frequency measurement. This time-to-trigger effectively reduces the
required) number of inter-frequency measurements to be started, preventing
unnecessary inter-frequency measurement. The average number of inter-
frequency measurements to be started has a negative correlation with the
time-to-trigger. At the same time, an excessively large value of the time-to-
trigger results in a high risk of service drops.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
A4A5 Based Interfreq InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA1ThdRsrp Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for event A1 associated with
A1 RSRP Threshold (negotiation not inter-frequency measurement. A larger value causes a lower probability of
required) triggering event A1. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be (usually 4 dB) greater than or equal to
the sum of the value of InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp and
RSRP threshold offset for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement (set in
the CnOperatorHoCfg MO).
A4A5 Based Interfreq InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA1ThdRsrq Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRQ threshold for event A1 for inter-
A1 RSRQ Threshold (negotiation not frequency measurement. A larger value causes a lower probability of
required) triggering event A1. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be (usually 2 dB) greater than or equal to
the value of InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrq.
A4A5 Based Interfreq InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for event A2 for inter-
A2 RSRP Threshold (negotiation not frequency measurement. A larger value causes a lower probability of
required) triggering event A2. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
Set this parameter based on the actual conditions. Usually, set this
parameter to the RSRP in the area where the UE throughput in the serving
cell is similar to that in the neighboring cell.
A4A5 Based Interfreq InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrq Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRQ threshold for event A2 for inter-
A2 RSRQ Threshold (negotiation not frequency measurement. A larger value causes a lower probability of
required) triggering event A2. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
Set this parameter based on the actual conditions. Usually, set this
parameter to the RSRQ in the area where the UE throughput in the serving
cell is similar to that in the neighboring cell.
Interfreq handover InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4Hyst Network plan This parameter specifies the hysteresis for event A4. A larger value causes
hysteresis (negotiation not a lower probability of triggering event A4. A smaller value causes a higher
required) probability.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
CoverageBased InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4ThdRsrp Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for event A4 in a coverage-
Interfreq RSRP (negotiation not based, UL-quality-based, or distance-based handover, or in a SPID-based
threshold required) handover to the HPLMN. A larger value causes a lower probability of
triggering event A4. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than the sum of the peer-end
RSRP threshold for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement (set in the
InterFreqHoGroup MO at the peer eNodeB) and the RSRP threshold
offset for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement for the higher-priority
RAT(set in the CnOperatorHoCfg MO at the peer eNodeB).
CoverageBased InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4ThdRsrq Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRQ threshold for event A4 in a coverage-
Interfreq RSRQ (negotiation not based, UL-quality-based, or distance-based handover, or in a SPID-based
threshold required) handover to the HPLMN. A larger value causes a lower probability of
triggering event A4. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than or equal to the peer-end
RSRQ threshold for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement set at the
peer eNodeB (set in the InterFreqHoGroup MO at the peer eNodeB).
Interfreq HandOver InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4TimeToTrig Network plan This parameter specifies the time-to-trigger for event A4. A larger value
Time to Trigger (negotiation not causes a lower probability of handover to inter-frequency neighboring E-
required) UTRAN cells and a smaller average number of handovers, but a higher risk
of service drops. A smaller value causes the opposite effect.
If both coverage-based inter-frequency handovers and coverage-based
inter-RAT handovers are enabled, you are advised to set the time-to-trigger
for the inter-frequency handover event to be smaller than that for the inter-
RAT handover event so that intra-RAT is preferentially performed. This
helps increase the possibility of inter-frequency handovers.
Interfreq A3 offset InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA3Offset Network plan This parameter specifies the offset for event A3 associated with inter-
(negotiation not frequency handover. It determines the border between the serving cell and
required) the neighboring cell. If the parameter is set to a large value, an inter-
frequency handover is performed only when the signal quality of the
neighboring cell is significantly better than that of the serving cell and other
triggering conditions are met.
It is recommended that you adjust the parameter value based on the
application scenario. Increase the parameter value if premature inter-
frequency handovers occur. Decrease the parameter value if delayed inter-
frequency handovers occur.
Parameter Name Parameter ID Data Source Setting Notes
A3 based interfreq InterFreqHoGroup.A3InterFreqHoA1ThdRsrp Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for event A1 associated with
A1 RSRP threshold (negotiation not event-A3-triggered inter-frequency handover. A relatively large value
required) results in a low probability of stopping inter-frequency measurements,
whereas a relatively small value results in a high probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than or equal to (usually 4 dB
greater than) the sum of InterFreqHoGroup.A3InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp
and threshold offset for inter-frequency measurement event A2 (set in the
CnOperatorHoCfg MO).

required) results in a low probability of starting inter-frequency measurements,
whereas a relatively large value results in a high probability.
Set this parameter based on actual conditions to ensure that event-A3-
triggered inter-frequency handovers can occur timely.
Interfreq A5 RSRP InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA5Thd1Rsrp Network plan This parameter indicates the RSRP threshold 1 in the serving cell of event
threshold 1 (negotiation not A5 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency handovers. A small value
required) of this parameter leads to a low probability of triggering event A5. A large
value of this parameter leads to a high probability of triggering event A5.
It is recommended that you adjust the parameter value based on the
application scenario. Increase the parameter value if too-late inter-
frequency handovers occur.
Interfreq A5 RSRQ InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA5Thd1Rsrq Network plan This parameter indicates the RSRQ threshold 1 in the serving cell of event
threshold 1 (negotiation not A5 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency handovers. A small value
required) of this parameter leads to a low probability of triggering event A5. A large
value of this parameter leads to a high probability of triggering event A5.
It is recommended that you adjust the parameter value based on the
application scenario. Increase the parameter value if too-late inter-
frequency handovers occur.
The following table provides the parameter that must be set in the EutranInterFreqNCell MO to adjust cell individual offset for the inter-frequency neighboring cells.

required) If there are multiple target cells for the inter-frequency handover and related
handover parameters need to be optimized, you can decrease this parameter
value for a neighboring cell to reduce the possibility of the handover to the
neighboring cell, or you can increase this parameter value for a neighboring cell
to raise the possibility of the handover to the neighboring cell.
VoIP Priority
The following table provides the parameter that must be set in the EutranInterNFreq MO to adjust VoIP priority.
VoIP Priority EutranInterNFreq.VoipPriority Network plan (negotiation This parameter is required when the inter-frequency measurement frequency
required) priority control is enabled for VoIP UEs.
The priority is set in descending order based on cell coverage status. The
frequency with better coverage is set with higher priority. For frequencies with the
same coverage status, their priorities can be set to the same value. If the
neighboring cells fill coverage holes of each other, the priorities for the frequency
of such neighboring cells can be set to the same value.
Assume that a site needs to be added to resolve weak coverage in the network.
The frequency of Cell 1 in this site is F1, Cell 2 is a neighboring cell of Cell 1, and
among the neighboring frequencies of Cell 2, the VoIP priority for F2 is the
highest. In this situation, the VoIP priority for F1 must be reconfigured to be the
same as the VoIP priority for F2.
Max report cell IntraRatHoComm.IntraRatHoMaxRprtCell Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the maximum number of cells to be included in
number required) each intra-frequency or inter-frequency measurement report after the
corresponding event is triggered. Set this parameter to a larger value if
the eNodeB requires more candidate cells to make a handover
decision. An excessively large value, however, causes a waste of air
interface resources.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
Measurement report IntraRatHoComm.IntraRatHoRprtAmount Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the number of intra-frequency or inter-
amount required) frequency periodical measurement reports to be sent after the
corresponding event is triggered. Set this parameter to a larger value if
the eNodeB requires more measurement reports to make a handover
decision. An excessively large parameter value, however, causes a
waste of air interface resources.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
Parameter Name Parameter ID Data Source Setting Notes
Measurement A4 IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4RprtQuan Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the reporting quantity to be included in the
report quantity required) measurement reports after event A4 is triggered. It can be either the
same as the triggering quantity for event A4 for inter-frequency
measurement or both RSRP and RSRQ. That is, the measurement
results can be RSRP-based, RSRQ-based, or both in A4-related
measurement reports.
It is recommended that the default value be used if the traffic load of
LTE cells is not stable.
Interfreq IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoRprtInterval Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the interval between every two reports that are
measurement report required) triggered by event A4. A smaller value causes more measurement
interval reports and greater consumption of air interface resources, but a higher
probability of triggering handovers. An excessively large parameter
value, however, causes a long delay in retries and a low handover
success rate.
It is recommended that the default value be used.
InterFreq A1A2 IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA1A2TrigQuan Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the triggering quantity for inter-frequency
Measurement trigger required) measurement events A1 and A2. The parameter can be either RSRP or
quantity RSRQ. RSRQ-based measurement results reflect signal quality in real
time, whereas RSRP-based measurement results are stable with little
signal fluctuation.
It is recommended that the default value be used if the traffic load of
LTE cells is not stable.
When event A3 is used to trigger coverage-based inter-frequency handovers, the reconfiguration of other parameters is the same as those in coverage-based intra-frequency
handovers. For details, see 7.1.9 Parameter Optimization.
Coverage-based inter-frequency blind handover thresholds are contained in the CellHoParaCfg MO.
BlindHO A1A2 RSRP CellHoParaCfg.BlindHOA1A2ThdRsrp Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for events A1 and A2 that
trigger threshold required) are used for coverage-based inter-frequency and inter-RAT blind
handovers.
Set this parameter based on the actual coverage conditions to ensure that
service drops do not occur within corresponding areas.
BlindHO A1A2 RSRQ CellHoParaCfg.BlindHoA1A2ThdRsrq Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the RSRQ threshold for events A1 and A2 that
trigger threshold required) are used for coverage-based inter-frequency and inter-RAT blind
handovers.
Set this parameter based on the actual coverage conditions to ensure that
service drops do not occur within corresponding areas.
7.2.10 Troubleshooting
Fault Description
An event A4 measurement report may not be submitted when a UE moving toward the cell edge experiences a call drop.
Troubleshooting
Perform the following steps to determine whether the handover parameters are set correctly:
1. Check the messages over the S1 interface and locate the IE Cause in the S1AP_UE_CONTEXT_REL_REQ message.
If the value of this IE is radioNetwork:radio-connection-with-ue-lost, go to 2.
If the value of this IE is not radioNetwork:radio-connection-with-ue-lost, the handover parameters are set correctly. Contact Huawei technical support
engineers.
2. Check the messages over the Uu interface for A4 measurement reports in RRC_MEAS_RPRT messages prior to RRC_CONN_REL messages.
If such reports cannot be found, this problem is due to inappropriate settings of handover parameters. Go to 3.
If such reports can be found, contact Huawei engineers.

c. (Optional) ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELLPLMN, which is used to configure the PLMN list for an external E-UTRAN cell when the neighboring E-UTRAN
cell works in RAN sharing mode.
d. ADD EUTRANINTERFREQNCELL
a. To modify the settings of a standardized QCI for an operator, run the MOD CNOPERATORSTANDARDQCI command.
b. To add a Huawei-defined extended QCI for an operator, run the ADD CNOPERATOREXTENDEDQCI command.
6. Run the ADD SERVICEIFDLEARFCNGRP command to add target EARFCNs for specified services.
MML Command Examples
1. Trace messages over the S1 interface after a UE accesses the network at the center of a cell in the 2600 MHz band and sets up a handover-enabled dedicated bearer
with a QCI of 2. Check the S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ message. If the message contains dedicated-bearer configuration, you can infer that service-based inter-
frequency handover has been activated.
2. Trace messages over the Uu interface on the U2000 client. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message that contains the A4-related inter-frequency measurement
configuration for service-based handover.
3. Trace messages over the Uu interface on the U2000 client again. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message, which is the handover command sent from the eNodeB
after the eNodeB receives an A4-related inter-frequency measurement report from the UE for a service-based handover. If the message contains target cell access
information, you can infer that service-based inter-frequency handover has been triggered.
7.3.7 Deactivation
Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is similar to that for feature activation described in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
for Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify related parameters described below.

On the CME, set the parameters listed in each scenario for a single eNodeB. For detailed instructions, see Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration for feature activation.
To deactivate service-based inter-frequency handover, disable its algorithm by running the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command.
Local cell ID InterFreqHoGroup.LocalCellId Network plan (negotiation Ensure that this parameter has been set in a Cell MO based on the
not required) network plan.

Interfreq RSRP not required) based, frequency-priority-based, and service-based inter-frequency
threshold handovers. A larger value causes a lower probability of triggering
event A4. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than the sum of the
peer-end RSRP threshold for event A2 for inter-frequency
measurement (set in the InterFreqHoGroup MO at the peer
eNodeB) and the RSRP threshold offset for event A2 for inter-
frequency measurement (set in the CnOperatorHoCfg MO at the
peer eNodeB).
Load Based InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqLoadBasedHoA4ThdRsrq Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the RSRQ threshold for event A4 for load-
Interfreq RSRQ not required) based, frequency-priority-based, and service-based inter-frequency
threshold handovers. A larger value causes a lower probability of triggering
event A4. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than the peer-end
RSRQ threshold for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement set at
the peer eNodeB (set in the InterFreqHoGroup MO at the peer
eNodeB).
A4 Measurement IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the event A4 triggering quantity for inter-
Trigger Quantity required) frequency handovers other than coverage-based inter-frequency
handovers. The quantity can be either RSRP or RSRQ, or both. The
measured RSRP values are stable, slightly varying with the load, and
therefore there is little signal fluctuation. The measured RSRQ values
vary with the load and are likely to reflect the signal quality of the cell in
real time.
It is recommended that the default value be used if the traffic load of LTE
cells is not stable.
7.3.10 Troubleshooting
Fault Description
Assume that a handover policy has been configured to enable services with QCIx to be handed over to a cell working at frequency F1. When a UE performs services of QCIx, the
UE is not handed over to the cell working at frequency F1, as expected by the policy.
Fault Handling
Perform the following steps to determine whether the handover parameters are set correctly:
1. Check the messages over the S1 interface and locate the e-RABlevelQoSParameters IE in the S1AP_INITIAL_CONTEXT_SETUP_REQ message and the
S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ message (which may not exist).
If QCIx is not contained in the e-RABlevelQoSParameters IE, ignore this fault and perform the test again after verifying that the UE has set up a service with
QCIx.
If QCIx is contained in the e-RABlevelQoSParameters IE, check whether the UE has set up a service which is not allowed to be handed over to a cell
working at F1 because of its QCI.
If yes, perform the test again after the UE has stopped this service.
If no, go to step 2.
2. Check the messages over the Uu interface for A4 measurement reports in RRC_MEAS_RPRT messages.
If such reports cannot be found, this problem is due to inappropriate settings of handover parameters. Go to 3.
If such reports can be found, contact Huawei technical support engineers.

1. Trace messages over the Uu interface on the U2000 client after a UE accesses the network at the center of a cell in the 2600 MHz band. Move the UE toward the cell
edge. During the movement, inter-frequency measurements are not triggered for a coverage-based handover due to overshoot coverage, but the threshold for
distance-based inter-frequency handover is reached. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message. If the message contains measurement configuration for a distance-
based inter-frequency handover, you can infer that distance-based inter-frequency handover has been activated.
2. Trace messages over the Uu interface on the U2000 client again. Check the RRC_CONN_RECFG message, which is the handover command sent from the eNodeB
after the eNodeB receives an A4-related inter-frequency measurement report from the UE for a distance-based handover. If the message contains target cell access
information, you can infer that distance-based inter-frequency handover has been triggered.
7.4.7 Deactivation
Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is similar to that for feature activation described in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration
for Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify parameters according to Table 7-10.
Table 7-10 Parameters related to distance-based inter-frequency handover
On the CME, set the parameters listed in each scenario for a single eNodeB. For detailed instructions, see Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration for feature activation.
Run the MOD CELLALGOSWITCH command to turn off the switch for distance-based handover.

not required) network plan.

Interfreq RSRP not required) based, UL-quality-based, or distance-based handover, or in a SPID-based
threshold handover to the HPLMN. A larger value causes a lower probability of
triggering event A4. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than the sum of the peer-end
RSRP threshold for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement (set in the
InterFreqHoGroup MO at the peer eNodeB) and the RSRP threshold
offset for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement (set in the
CnOperatorHoCfg MO at the peer eNodeB).
CoverageBased InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4ThdRsrq Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the RSRQ threshold for event A4 in a coverage-
Interfreq RSRQ not required) based, UL-quality-based, or distance-based handover, or in a SPID-based
threshold handover to the HPLMN. A larger value causes a lower probability of
triggering event A4. A smaller value causes a higher probability.
The value of this parameter must be greater than or equal to the peer-end
RSRQ threshold for event A2 for inter-frequency measurement set at the
peer eNodeB (set in the InterFreqHoGroup MO at the peer eNodeB).
Interfreq HandOver InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA4TimeToTrig Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the time-to-trigger for event A4. A larger value
Time to Trigger not required) causes a lower probability of handover to inter-frequency neighboring E-
UTRAN cells and a smaller average number of handovers, but a higher
risk of service drops. A smaller value causes the opposite effect.
If both distance-based inter-frequency handovers and distance-based
inter-RAT handovers are enabled, you are advised to set the time-to-
trigger for the inter-frequency handover event to be smaller than that for
the inter-RAT handover event. This helps increase the possibility of inter-
frequency handovers.
A4 Measurement IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the event A4 triggering quantity for inter-
Trigger Quantity required) frequency handovers other than coverage-based inter-frequency
handovers. The quantity can be either RSRP or RSRQ, or both. The
measured RSRP values are stable, slightly varying with the load, and
therefore there is little signal fluctuation. The measured RSRQ values
vary with the load and are likely to reflect the signal quality of the cell in
real time.
It is recommended that the default value be used if the traffic load of LTE
cells is not stable.
7.4.10 Troubleshooting
Fault Description
An event A4 measurement report may not be submitted when a UE moving toward the edge of a cell that has overshoot coverage experiences a call drop.
Fault Handling
Perform the following steps to determine whether the handover parameters are set correctly:
1. Check the messages over the S1 interface and locate the IE Cause in the S1AP_UE_CONTEXT_REL_REQ message.
If the value of this IE is radioNetwork:radio-connection-with-ue-lost, go to 2.
If the value of this IE is not radioNetwork:radio-connection-with-ue-lost, the handover parameters are set correctly. Contact Huawei technical support
engineers.
2. Check the messages over the Uu interface for A4 measurement reports in RRC_MEAS_RPRT messages prior to RRC_CONN_REL messages.
If such reports cannot be found, this problem is due to inappropriate settings of handover parameters. Go to 3.
If such reports can be found, contact Huawei technical support engineers.

Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to activate a feature on existing eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for
multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure.
1. The procedure is as follows: Choose CME > Advanced > Customize Summary Data File (U2000 client mode), or choose Advanced > Customize Summary Data
File (CME client mode), to customize a summary data file for batch reconfiguration.
NOTE:
For context-sensitive help on a current task in the client, press F1.
2. Choose CME > LTE Application > Export Data > Base Station Bulk Configuration (U2000 client mode), or chooseLTE Application > Export Data > Base Station
Bulk Configuration (CME client mode), to export the eNodeB data stored on the CME into the customized summary data file.
3. In the summary data file, set the parameters in the MOs listed in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for Newly Deployed eNodeBs and close the file.
4. Choose CME > LTE Application > Import Data > Base Station Bulk Configuration (U2000 client mode), or choose LTE Application > Import Data > Base Station

5. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode), or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts
(CME client mode), to export and activate the incremental scripts.
On the CME, set the parameters listed in the "Data Preparation" section for a single eNodeB. The procedure is as follows:
1. In the planned data area, click Base Station in the upper left corner of the configuration window.
2. In area 1 shown in Figure 7-5, select the eNodeB to which the MOs belong.
Figure 7-5 MO search and configuration window
3. On the Search tab page in area 2, enter an MO name, for example, CELL.
4. In area 3, double-click the MO in the Object Name column. All parameters in this MO are displayed in area 4.
5. Set the parameters in area 4 or 5.
6. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode), or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts

1. Use a UE to access the network at the cell center in the 2600 MHz band. Then, move the UE from the cell center to the cell edge. During this process, the uplink
quality of the UE becomes poor.
2. Observe the user-level measurement result on the U2000 (choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace Management, and observe the value of BLER
Monitoring in User Performance Monitoring.)
When the user uplink IBLER increases gradually, observe the messages traced over the Uu interface. If the RRC_CONN_RECFG message from the
eNodeB contains measurement control information for the inter-frequency handover and the RRC_CONN_RECFG message received by the eNodeB
contains information of the target cell for an inter-frequency handover, you can infer that UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover has been activated.
When the user uplink IBLER increases suddenly but has not reached 99%, observe the messages traced over the Uu interface. If the RRC_CONN_REL
message from the eNodeB contains target frequency information, you can infer that UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover has been activated.

Some eNodeB sites use a high frequency band (for example, 2600 MHz) and a low band (for example, 900 MHz) as co-coverage bands. The high band is preferentially
used to provide services, and the low band is used to ensure continuous coverage. In this scenario, frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover can be used to
hand over UEs from the low to high band. Note that frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handovers are performed to transfer UEs only from the low band to the
high band. If a UE needs to be handed over from the high band to the low band, a coverage-based inter-frequency handover can be performed.
In a different-coverage networking scenario with bands of different bandwidth, you can enable frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover to enable the band
with higher bandwidth to provide services when the network load is light.

Trigger Quantity not required) frequency handovers other than coverage-based inter-frequency
handovers. The quantity can be either RSRP or RSRQ, or both. The
measured RSRP values are stable, slightly varying with the load, and
therefore there is little signal fluctuation. The measured RSRQ values
vary with the load and are likely to reflect the signal quality of the cell in
real time.
It is recommended that the default value be used if the traffic load of
LTE cells is not stable.
7.6.10 Troubleshooting
Fault Description
An eNodeB may not initiate a handover procedure upon receipt of an event A1 measurement report.
Fault Handling
Perform the following steps to determine whether the blind handover priorities for neighboring cells are accurate:
1. Run the LST EUTRANINTERFREQNCELL command to list the inter-frequency neighboring cells. Check the list for cells whose blind handover priorities range from 17
to 32.
If such cells cannot be found, go to 2.
If such cells can be found, contact Huawei technical support engineers.
2. Run the MOD EUTRANINTERFREQNCELL command to change the blind handover priorities of neighboring cells for frequency-priority-based blind handovers to a
value in the range from 17 to 32.
