Function Implementation in Macro, Micro, and LampSite eNodeBs
Each feature or function is implemented in the same way on micro, macro, and LampSite sites.
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.
3 Intra-Frequency Mobility Management

Intra-frequency mobility management is implemented through coverage-based intra-frequency handovers. This chapter describes the basic feature LBFD-00201801 Coverage
Based Intra-frequency Handover. For details about the engineering guidelines for this feature, see 7.1 Coverage-based Intra-Frequency Handover. The coverage-based intra-
frequency handover is enabled or disabled by the IntraFreqCoverHoSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter.
Blind handover is not supported during intra-frequency mobility management, and the coverage-based intra-frequency handover process can be divided into the following phases:
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.
3.1 Intra-Frequency Measurement

If the switch for the coverage-based intra-frequency handover is turned on, the eNodeB sends the UE the intra-frequency measurement configuration in a Measurement
Configuration message when the UE establishes a radio bearer.
Based on the measurement configuration, the UE measures all cells on the associated frequency within the measurement scope.
After the UE enters the RRC connected mode or a handover is complete, the eNodeB checks whether the measurement configuration for the UE needs to be updated. If yes, the
eNodeB delivers the entirely or partially updated measurement configuration to the UE through an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message. If no, the eNodeB does not deliver
updated measurement configuration.
The Measurement Configuration message used for intra-frequency measurements contains the measurement object information listed in Table 3-1 and measurement report
information listed in 3.2 Triggering of an Intra-Frequency Handover.

3.2 Triggering of an Intra-Frequency Handover

Event A3 indicates that the signal quality in a neighboring cell is better than that in the serving cell. When coverage-based intra-frequency handover is enabled, the eNodeB sends
measurement configurations related to event A3 to the UE during UE radio bearer setup.
The entering and leaving conditions of event A3 are shown in Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2. For details about event A3, see section 5.5.4.4 "Event A3 (Neighbour becomes offset
better than PCell)" in 3GPP TS 36.331 V10.1.0.
Entering condition: Mn + Ofn + Ocn Hys > Ms + Ofs + Ocs + Off

After receiving an event A3 from a UE, the eNodeB makes handover decision based on the reported candidate cell list.
Leaving condition: Mn + Ofn + Ocn + Hys < Ms + Ofs + Ocs + Off
If the leaving condition of event A3 is met, the UE no longer reports event A3.
Figure 3-1 Event A3 triggering condition
Figure 3-2 Event A3 leaving condition
The variables in the preceding formulas are described in Table 3-2.

Assume that both Hys and Off are set to 2 dB. The eNodeB detects that the signal quality in the source cell always drops rapidly and the signal quality in the target cell always rises
quickly in a handover.
To facilitate intra-frequency handovers, you can set Ocs to -1 dB for the serving cell and set Ocn to 1 dB for the target cell.
Ofs and Ofn use the same value for an intra-frequency handover. Assume that they are set to 0 dB, then the entering condition of event A3 is as follows: Mn + 0 + 1 - 2 > Ms + 0 - 1
+ 2. That is, event A3 can be triggered when the signal quality of the target cell is 2 dB higher than that of the serving cell.
Table 3-2 Parameters related to event A3

Measurement report amount IntraRatHoComm.IntraRATHoRprtAmount This parameter is used to limit the number
of measurement reports, reducing the
number of handover retries.
A3 measurement trigger quantity IntraRatHoComm.IntraFreqHoA3TrigQuan This parameter specifies the Mn and Ms

type and triggering quantity for event A3.
A3 measurement report quantity IntraRatHoComm.IntraFreqHoA3RprtQuan This parameter specifies the reporting

quantity to be included in the measurement
reports after event A3 is triggered.
A3 measurement report interval IntraRatHoComm.IntraFreqHoRprtInterval This parameter specifies the interval

between two event A3 measurement
reports from the UE. Setting this parameter
to a proper value reduces signaling traffic
on the air interface.

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.
The eNodeB first filters out the following cells from the candidate cell list:
Blacklisted neighboring cells

Neighboring cells with a handover prohibition flag
Neighboring cells that have a different PLMN from the serving cell
If the inter-PLMN handover switch is turned on, the cell that is in an PLMN different from the serving cell and not in the INTERPLMNHOLIST MO is filtered.
InterPlmnHoSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter controls the inter-PLMN handover switch.
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 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.

After making a handover decision, the eNodeB initiates a handover towards the best cell in the filtered candidate cell list.
During an intra-frequency handover, the eNodeB sends handover requests and forwards data through the X2 or S1 interface adaptively.
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.
3.5.1 Procedure of a Successful Handover

This section describes the signaling procedure of a successful intra-MME (with X2 interfaces) inter-eNodeB handover, as shown in Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3 Signaling procedure of a successful intra-MME inter-eNodeB handover
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.
3.5.2 Procedure of RRC Connection Reestablishment After a Handover Failure

After a handover fails, the UE performs a cell selection procedure and then initiates a procedure of RRC connection reestablishment towards the selected cell. The RRC
connection can be reestablished successfully only when the selected cell is a prepared cell (cell with UE contexts).
The RRC connection reestablishment procedure is different in successful RRC reestablishment and failed RRC reestablishment.
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.

4 Inter-Frequency Mobility Management

Inter-frequency mobility management can be implemented in different manners. This section describes the following features/functions:
LBFD-00201802 Coverage Based Inter-frequency Handover

LBFD-00201805 Service Based Inter-frequency Handover
LBFD-00201804 Distance Based Inter-Frequency Handover
UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover
Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover
The triggering condition for each feature or function is different, and the mobility management can mainly be divided into the following phases:
1. Target cell/frequency selection

For a measurement, the eNodeB generates a candidate cell list based on inter-RAT measurement results.
For a blind handover, the eNodeB selects a blind handover target based on the blind handover priority or frequency priority of neighboring cells.
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.

This section describes the basic feature LBFD-00201802 Coverage Based Inter-frequency Handover. For details about the engineering guidelines for this feature, see 7.2
Coverage-based Inter-Frequency Handover. The coverage-based inter-frequency handover is enabled or disabled by the switch InterFreqCoverHoSwitch under the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter.
During a coverage-based inter-frequency handover, measurements or blind handover can be triggered and stopped by different events, as shown in Table 4-1.
Table 4-1 Events for triggering/stopping measurements or blind handover during a coverage-based inter-frequency handover
Procedure Subprocedure Triggering Events Stopping Events
Measurement Inter-frequency Event A2 Event A1

measurement
Inter-frequency Event A3, event A4, or event A5 N/A

handover
Blind handover N/A Event A2 Event A1
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.

Inter-frequency measurements are triggered by event A2 and stopped by event A1.
During a coverage-based inter-frequency handover, the sequence that the measurement configuration for events A1 and A2 is sent is controlled by the
ReduceInvalidA1A2RptSigSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoSignalingOptSwitch parameter.
If the option is selected, the eNodeB sends measurement configuration for event A2 when the UE sets up an RRC connection, and sends measurement configuration
for event A1 after it receives an event A2 from the UE. This reduces the reporting of invalid event A1. Figure 4-1 shows inter-frequency measurement based on event
A4/A5. Figure 4-3 shows inter-frequency measurement based on event A3.
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. Figure 4-2 shows
inter-frequency measurement based on event A4/A5. Figure 4-4 shows inter-frequency measurement based on event A3.
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.

4.1.1.1 Event A2
Event A2 indicates that the signal quality of the serving cell is lower than a threshold.
Triggering of Inter-Frequency Measurement
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.
Entering condition: Ms + Hys < Thresh

If the entering condition is met, the UE reports an event A2. After receiving the event A2 report, the eNodeB delivers a measurement configuration to start inter-
frequency measurement.
Leaving condition: Ms - Hys > Thresh

Event A2 for Target-based Measurement
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.

Type Description
FDD CnOperatorHoCfg.FddIfHoA2ThdRsrpOffset InterFreqHoGroup.A3InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp/InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA2ThdRSRP When the

threshold offset is
not 0, the
threshold for
event A2 is the
sum of the RSRP
threshold and
RSRP offset.
TDD CnOperatorHoCfg.TddIfHoA2ThdRsrpOffset Only the RSRP
threshold for
event A2 is
accompanied by
an offset, while
the RSRQ
threshold for
event A2 is not.
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.
Entering condition: Ms - Hys > Thresh

When event A1 is triggered, the eNodeB receives an event A1 from the UE.
Leaving condition: Ms + Hys < Thresh
When the leaving condition of event A1 is met, the UE no longer reports event A1.
Figure 4-6 Entering and leaving conditions of event A1
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.

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.

Measurement objects Downlink EARFCN EutranInterNFreq.DlEarfcn This is a cell-level parameter.

If an inter-frequency neighboring cell is a multi-band cell, the
eNodeB calculates and delivers an EARFCN based on the band
supporting capability of the UE.
For details about the relationship between the band and
EARFCN, see section 5.7.3 "Carrier frequency and EARFCN" in
3GPP TS 36.101 V10.2.1.

configuration
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.

When receiving event A2 that triggers inter-frequency measurement, the eNodeB sends related inter-frequency handover events. Coverage-based inter-frequency handovers can
be triggered by event A3, A4, or A5. The EutranInterNFreq.InterFreqHoEventType parameter specifies which event triggers coverage-based inter-frequency handovers.
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

Triggering and Stopping of Blind Handover
The eNodeB can deliver a measurement configuration related to event A2 for blind handover if the signal quality of the serving cell deteriorates to a specified level but the UE has
not yet been handed over. The eNodeB also delivers the measurement configuration related to event A1 to stop blind handover when the signal quality in the serving cell does not
further deteriorate.
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.

trigger threshold the A2 event.
If InterRatHoComm.InterRatHoA1A2TrigQuan is set to
RSRP or RSRQ, the UE reports an A2 event only when
the entering condition for the related A2 event is met.

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.
Figure 4-9 Target selection process for blind handover
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.

This section describes the basic feature LBFD-00201805 Service Based Inter-frequency Handover. For details about the engineering guidelines for this feature, see 7.3 Service-
based Inter-Frequency Handover.
Service-based inter-frequency handover is controlled by the following options and is activated for the corresponding cell only when both options are selected. Otherwise, service-
based inter-frequency handover cannot be activated.
Option 1: ServiceBasedInterFreqHoSwitch of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter
Option 2: SrvBasedInterFreqHoSw of the CellAlgoSwitch.HoAllowedSwitch 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.

Inter-frequency handover Event A4 The UE service is terminated.

To implement service-based inter-frequency handovers, operators need to configure service-based inter-frequency handover policies. Since the services of each operator are
classified by QCIs, each QCI can be associated with a service-based inter-frequency handover policy so that the frequency group specified by the policy preferentially carries the
services with this QCI. The neighbor relationships corresponding to the different frequencies must be configured. The eNodeB triggers a service-based inter-frequency handover
for a UE based on the highest-priority QCI of the services running on the UE.
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.

Before delivering the measurement configuration related to event A4, the eNodeB checks whether the measurement gap has been activated. If the measurement gap has been
activated and includes other measurement gaps, the eNodeB does not reconfigure the measurement gap. Otherwise, the eNodeB activates the measurement gap.
If a UE has performed gap-assisted measurements for a service-based inter-frequency handover for a period of time (internally set to 3s) but fails to trigger such a handover, the
eNodeB will stop the service-based inter-frequency measurements.
Parameters in the measurement configuration for service-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as those for coverage-based inter-RAT measurement. For details, see
4.1.2 Inter-Frequency Measurement.

Service-based inter-frequency handovers can be triggered by event A4. Working principles of event A4 for triggering service-based inter-frequency handovers are the same as
those of event A4 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency handovers. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.
All parameters (other than thresholds) for event A4 that triggers service-based inter-frequency handovers are the same as those for event A4 that triggers coverage-based inter-
frequency handovers. Table 4-19 lists the thresholds related to event A4 that triggers service-based inter-frequency handovers.
Table 4-19 Thresholds related to event A4 that triggers service-based inter-frequency handovers
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.

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.

This section describes the basic feature LBFD-00201804 Distance Based Inter-frequency Handover. For details about the engineering guidelines for this feature, see 7.4 Distance-
based Inter-Frequency Handover. The CellAlgoSwitch.DistBasedHoSwitch parameter specifies whether to enable distance-based inter-frequency handover.
Distance-based inter-frequency handover can be triggered only when the DistBasedHO.DistBasedMeasObjType parameter is set to EUTRAN.
Distance-based inter-frequency handover applies in multi-band hybrid networks where cells on a certain band cover relatively large areas and overshoot coverage occurs while
neighbor relations are missing.
As shown in Figure 4-10, band F1 is used to cover the urban area and band F2 is used to cover the suburban area. If there are few obstacles in the overlapping area between the
urban area and the suburban area, the RF signals from an F1 cell may be able to travel a long distance (typically three times the distance between sites), causing overshoot
coverage to an F2 cell. The triangle area in the UE moving direction indicates overshoot coverage.
As there are restrictions on number of cells between two neighboring cells, Cell D cannot be configured as a neighboring cell of Cell A. However, because of overshoot coverage of
Cell A, coverage-based handover conditions are not met when the UE moves from Cell A to Cell B and Cell C. Therefore, the UE cannot trigger coverage-based inter-frequency
handover in Cell B and Cell C. When the UE reaches Cell D and moves out of the overshoot coverage area, service drops will occur because of the missing neighbor relationship.
When distance-based inter-frequency handover is enabled, the UE can be handed over to Cell B or Cell C in time to avoid service drop. The deviation in the estimated distance
between the UE and eNodeB is about 100 to 150 meters.
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

threshold.
Inter-frequency handover Event A4 N/A

Distance-based inter-frequency handovers are triggered by the eNodeB based on the distance between the eNodeB and the UE.
The eNodeB keeps monitoring the distance to all UEs. Upon detecting that the measured distance to a UE exceeds the threshold specified by the
DistBasedHO.DistBasedHOThd parameter for 10 seconds (which is a fixed value), the eNodeB delivers the measurement configuration for event A4 to the UE.
While the measurements for a distance-based inter-frequency handover are being taken, if the eNodeB detects that the reported TA value does not meet
DistBasedHO.DistBasedHOThd for 10 seconds, the measurements are immediately stopped.

Parameters in the measurement configuration for distance-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as those for coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. For
details, see 4.1.2 Inter-Frequency Measurement.

Distance-based inter-frequency handovers can be triggered by event A4. Working principles of event A4 for triggering distance-based inter-frequency handovers are the same as
those of event A4 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency handovers. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.
Table 4-21 describes the thresholds of event A4 for distance-based inter-frequency handovers. Other parameters are the same as those related to event A4 for coverage-based

This section describes UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover. For details about the engineering guidelines of this feature, see 7.5 UL-Quality-based Inter-Frequency
Handover. UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover can be enabled by the UlQualityInterFreqHoSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter.
A UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover prevents service drops caused by deteriorated uplink quality.
Table 4-22 describes events for triggering and stopping inter-frequency measurement and handovers during an UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover.

does not receive any event A4 reports.

UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover is triggered based on uplink signal quality. This ensures timely handover and avoids service drops when the uplink signal quality is poor.
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
CellHoParaCfg.UlBadQualHoIblerThd parameter value.

Parameters in the measurement configuration for UL-quality-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as those for coverage-based inter-frequency measurement. For
details, see 4.1.2 Inter-Frequency Measurement.

UL-quality-based inter-frequency handovers can be triggered by event A4. Working principles of event A4 for triggering UL-quality-based inter-frequency handovers are the same
as those of event A4 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency handovers. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.

Triggering of Blind Handover
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.

This section describes frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover. For details about the engineering guidelines of this feature, see 7.6 Frequency-Priority-based Inter-
Frequency Handover. The FreqPriorIFHOSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.FreqPriorityHoSwitch parameter controls whether to enable frequency-priority-based inter-
frequency handover.
When the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is selected, frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover can be
enabled only for UEs that do not carry voice services.
When the MlbBasedFreqPriHoSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.FreqPriorityHoSwitch parameter is selected, the eNodeB stops performing frequency-priority-based inter-
frequency handovers on a cell when detecting that the cell triggers MLB. For details about MLB triggering conditions, see Intra-RAT Mobility Load Balancing Feature Parameter
Description.
If all the neighboring cells are in the MLB-triggering status, the eNodeB does not trigger the frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover for the source cell. For details about
MLB triggering conditions, see Intra-RAT Mobility Load Balancing Feature Parameter Description.
Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handovers apply to the following scenarios:
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.

handover
Blind handover N/A Event A1 Event A2

Events A1 and A2 are respectively used for triggering and stopping measurement and blind handover. When the eNodeB receives an event A1 report, blind handover or
inter-frequency measurement is triggered as follows:
Blind handover is triggered if it has been enabled by selecting the FreqPriorIFBlindHOSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.FreqPriorityHoSwitch
parameter.
If blind handover is not enabled, the eNodeB delivers a measurement configuration for event A4 to trigger inter-frequency measurement.
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.

handover
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.

In the multi-band same-coverage networking scenario, during frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement, the sequence that the measurement configuration of events
A1 and A2 for triggering and stopping inter-frequency measurements is sent is controlled by the ReduceInvalidA1A2EventRptSigSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoSignalingOptSwitch parameter.
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.
Triggering of Inter-Frequency Measurement
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.

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

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.

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 a UE is performing gap-assisted measurements for a frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover and the VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch option of the
CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch parameter is selected, the eNodeB stops frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement for UEs that set up bearers for voice
services.
Parameters (other than parameter for frequency selection) 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 4.1.2 Inter-Frequency Measurement.
The EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag parameter specifies the measurement flag for a frequency for frequency-priority-based inter-frequency measurement.
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.

Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handovers can be triggered by event A4. Working principles of event A4 for triggering frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handovers
are the same as those of event A4 for triggering coverage-based inter-frequency handovers. For details, see 4.1.3.2 Event A4.
Parameters related to event A4 that triggers frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handovers are the same as those related to event A4 that triggers service-based inter-
frequency handovers. For details, see Table 4-29.

to SAME_AS_TRIG_QUAN(Same as Trig Quan), service-
based measurement report type for event A4 is the same

Triggering and Stopping of Blind Handover
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
If EutranInterNFreq.FreqPriBasedHoMeasFlag is set to DISABLE(Disable), measurement is not performed.

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.
The candidate cell list varies according to handover type.
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.
4.6.1 Target Decision

In the handover decision phase, the eNodeB filters cells in the candidate cell list based on cell load status. Then, the eNodeB determines whether a handover needs to be initiated
and, if so, the handover sequence.
Basic Handover Decision
The eNodeB first filters out the following cells from the candidate cell list:
Blacklisted neighboring cells

Neighboring cells with a handover prohibition flag
Cells that have a different PLMN from the serving cell in the neighboring cell list
If the inter-PLMN handover function is enabled and the enhancement of SPID-based HPLMN handover function is disabled, the cell that is in a PLMN
different from the serving cell and not in the InterPlmnHoList MO is filtered. If both the inter-PLMN handover and enhancement of SPID-based HPLMN
handover functions are enabled, the UE is allowed to be handed over to the configured HPLMN roaming-allowed cells that are also configured in the
InterPlmnHoList MO. The InterPlmnHoSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter controls inter-PLMN handover. The
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.SpidSelectPlmnAlgoSwitch parameter controls the enhancement of SPID-based HPLMN handover. For details, see Flexible User
Steering Feature Parameter Description.
If the equivalent PLMN switch is turned on, the inter-PLMN list can include the EPLMN list. The EPlmnSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoAlgoSwitch parameter specifies the equivalent PLMN switch.
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:
Service-based inter-frequency handover

Frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover
SPID-based inter-frequency handover back to the HPLMN. For details, see Flexible User Steering.
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
Candidate Cell List Generated by Sequence of Handover Requests
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.
If the handover request fails in all candidate cells:
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.
4.6.2 Admission Decision

The MultiQciHoExecOptSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoSignalingOptSwitch parameter indicates whether the handover decision is triggered based on the
admission result of all QCIs in SPID-based handovers to HPLMN and frequency-priority-based handovers.
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 either a handover procedure or a redirection procedure.
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.

Signaling procedures for inter-frequency handovers are the same as those for intra-frequency handovers. For details, see 3.5 Signaling Procedures.

Prerequisite Features
None
Mutually Exclusive Features
None
Impacted Features
None

None
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.
Others
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
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.

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 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.
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.

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.

7 Engineering Guidelines
This chapter provides engineering guidelines for mobility management in connection mode.
7.1.1 When to Use Coverage-based Intra-Frequency Handover

Mobility management is fundamental to service continuity. Coverage-based intra-frequency handovers are used by default. You are advised to keep this type of handover enabled.

Coverage-based intra-frequency handover is a basic feature and has no special requirements for the network and UE.
To ensure the performance of coverage-based intra-frequency handover, verify that the E-UTRAN provides effective and continuous coverage. If there are coverage holes in the E-
UTRAN, coverage-based intra-frequency handover may not achieve satisfactory performance.
In addition, collect information about intra-frequency neighbor relationships to ensure the integrity of such relationships.
7.1.3 Requirements
Operating Environment
Coverage-based intra-frequency handovers have no requirements for operating environment.
Transmission Networking
Coverage-based intra-frequency handovers have no requirements for transmission networking.
License
Coverage-based intra-frequency handovers have no requirements for licenses.

7.1.5 Activation
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
parameters. Related MOs and parameters in each scenario are listed as follows:

Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for Existing eNodeBs
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.
Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration
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.
Using MML Commands
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
MML Command Examples
//Activating coverage-based intra-frequency handover

MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH: HoAlgoSwitch=IntraFreqCoverHoSwitch-1;
//Adding intra-frequency E-UTRAN neighboring cells
ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELL: Mcc="460", Mnc="20", eNodeBId=123, CellId=0, DlEarfcn=2350, UlEarfcnCfgInd=NOT_CFG, PhyCellId=101, Tac=1;
ADD EUTRANEXTERNALCELLPLMN: Mcc="460", Mnc="20", eNodeBId=123, CellId=0, ShareMcc="460", ShareMnc="22";
ADD EUTRANINTRAFREQNCELL: LocalCellId=0, Mcc="460", Mnc="20", eNodeBId=123, CellId=0;

The observation procedure is as follows:
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.

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.
Using MML Commands
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.
//Deactivating coverage-based intra-frequency handover

MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH: HoAlgoSwitch=IntraFreqCoverHoSwitch-0;

Coverage-based intra-frequency handovers ensure service continuity when users move around. How well these handovers serve this purpose reflects their performance. After
activating coverage-based intra-frequency handover, check the following counters to monitor and evaluate handover performance:
Intra-frequency handover success rate

Intra-frequency Handover Out Success Rate
Outgoing intra-frequency handover preparation success rate
Outgoing intra-frequency handover preparation success rate = (L.HHO.IntraeNB.IntraFreq.ExecAttOut +
L.HHO.IntereNB.IntraFreq.ExecAttOut)/(L.HHO.IntraeNB.IntraFreq.PrepAttOut + L.HHO.IntereNB.IntraFreq.PrepAttOut)
Service drop rate
Call Drop Rate (VoIP)
Service Drop Rate (All)
Service Drop Rate (Always Online)
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.
NOTE:
For details about KPIs, see eRAN KPI Reference.

Intra-Frequency Handover Parameters
Intra-frequency handover parameters are contained in the IntraFreqHoGroup MO.
Local cell ID IntraFreqHoGroup.LocalCellId Network plan Ensure that this parameter has been set in a Cell MO based on the network plan.

ID required) If you want to set different intra-frequency handover parameters for services with a
specific QCI, you must create a parameter group, and reference the parameter group
ID to the corresponding QCI.
Intrafreq IntraFreqHoGroup.IntraFreqHoA3Hyst Network plan This parameter specifies the hysteresis for event A3 associated with intra-frequency
handover (negotiation not handover. A larger hysteresis value causes a lower probability of triggering event A3,
hysteresis required) affecting user experience. A smaller hysteresis value causes a higher probability of
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.
Cell Individual Offset for Intra-Frequency Neighboring Cells
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

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.
Intra-RAT Intra-Frequency Handover Parameters
Intra-RAT intra-frequency handover parameters are contained in the IntraRatHoComm MO.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
7.2.1 When to Use Coverage-based Inter-Frequency Handover

Mobility management is fundamental to service continuity. Coverage-based inter-frequency handovers are used by default. You are advised to keep this type of handover enabled.
If the live network does not require inter-frequency networking, you can disable coverage-based inter-frequency handover.

If blind handovers or redirections are required to implement inter-frequency handovers, collect the information about the neighboring cells to which blind handovers or redirections
will be allowed as well as their blind-handover priorities.
The information to be collected before deploying coverage-based inter-frequency handover includes the information to be collected before deploying coverage-based intra-
frequency handover.
Collect UE information to determine whether the eNodeB needs to handle UEs that report an abnormal frequency-supporting capability.
In addition to the information described in 7.1.2 Required Information, collect the information about the coverage at the inter-frequency handover area. This information serves as a
basis for setting the thresholds used to trigger events A1, A2, and A4.
The event A2 threshold for coverage-based inter-frequency handover and the event A2 threshold for coverage-based inter-RAT handover can be separately set. If coverage-based
inter-frequency handover is expected to be triggered earlier than coverage-based inter-RAT handover, the event A2 threshold for coverage-based inter-frequency handover must
be set to a value greater than the event A2 threshold for coverage-based inter-RAT handover.

To reduce the number of signaling messages over the air interface,
clear the EmcBlindHoA1Switch(EmcBlindHoA1Switch) check box

box under this parameter.
Compatibility Control Switch ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CompatibilityCtrlSwitch Network plan (negotiation It is recommended that the UECapRprtAbnormalCtrlSwitch option
not required) of this parameter be selected when the UE reporting capability is
abnormal.
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.

The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the EutranInterFreqNCell MO to configure blind handover priorities and measurement priorities for neighboring
cells.

Blind handover Priority EutranInterFreqNCell.BlindHoPriority Network plan (negotiation not If this parameter value is set to 0, blind handovers and frequency-
required) priority-based handovers cannot be performed. The values 1 to 16
indicate blind-handover priorities. Multiple neighboring cells can be
configured with the same blind-handover priority. If multiple
neighboring cells have the same blind-handover priority, the eNodeB
randomly selects one from them. The values 17 to 32 indicate the
priorities for frequency-priority-based handovers. Set this parameter
(with a value ranging from 1 to 16) only for those inter-frequency
neighboring cells that have overlapped coverage with the serving cell.
Set this parameter to a larger value for a neighboring cell that has
wider overlapped coverage or a lower frequency.
Set this parameter to 0 for all inter-frequency neighboring cells if no
inter-frequency neighboring cells have overlapped coverage with the
serving cell.
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.
(Optional, required for only coverage-based inter-frequency handovers) The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the CnOperatorHoCfg MO to configure
the RSRP threshold offset and priorities for TDD/FDD frequencies during the selection of the target cells for coverage-based inter-frequency handovers.
CN Operator ID CnOperatorHoCfg.CnOperatorId Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the ID of an operator and is defined in the
not required) CnOperator MO.
Set this parameter to the ID of the operator that needs to be configured with
a priority.
First RAT Priority CnOperatorHoCfg.FirstRatPri 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. To give E-UTRAN TDD and E-UTRAN
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.
LTE TDD inter-freq CnOperatorHoCfg.TddIfHoA2ThdRsrpOffset Network plan (negotiation This parameter value plus the value of
A2 Threshold RSRP not required) InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp or
Offset InterFreqHoGroup.A3InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp is the offset of the RSRP
threshold for LTE TDD inter-frequency measurement event A2.

Downlink EARFCN EutranNFreqRanShare.DlEarfcn Network plan (negotiation not This parameter specifies the DL EARFCN of the cells on the
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.

required) triggered when there is no neighboring cell.
Mobile network code EutranNFreqRanShare.Mnc Network plan (negotiation This parameter specifies the MNC of the frequency for blind handovers
required) triggered when there is no neighboring cell.
(Optional, required only when inter-frequency measurement priority control is enabled for VoIP UEs) The following table describes the parameter that must be set in the
CellAlgoSwitch MO to configure the VoIP measurement frequency priority switch.
Multi Frequency Priority CellAlgoSwitch.MultiFreqPriControlSwitch Network plan (negotiation not It is recommended that VoipMeasFreqPriSwitch be turned on when
Control Switch required) the live network has three or more frequencies in the following
scenarios:
When the coverage of the frequencies is the same, the
frequency serving less number of UEs is selected as a
higher-priority frequency.
When only one frequency achieves optimum coverage, the
frequency is selected as the highest priority.

Inter-frequency handovers are intended to ensure service continuity when users move around. How well these handovers serve this purpose reflects their performance. After
activating coverage-based inter-frequency handover, check the following counters to monitor and evaluate handover performance:
Inter-frequency handover success rate

Coverage-based inter-frequency outgoing handover success rate
Coverage-based inter-frequency outgoing handover success rate = (L.HHO.InterFreq.Coverage.ExecSuccOut +
L.HHO.InterFddTdd.Coverage.ExecSuccOut)/(L.HHO.InterFreq.Coverage.ExecAttOut + L.HHO.InterFddTdd.Coverage.ExecAttOut)
Inter-frequency handover preparation success rate
Coverage-based inter-frequency outgoing handover preparation success rate = (L.HHO.InterFreq.Coverage.ExecAttOut +

Service drop rate
Call Drop Rate (VoIP)
Service Drop Rate (All)

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.

required) If you want to set different inter-frequency handover parameters for
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

causes a higher probability.
Interfreq A1A2 time InterFreqHoGroup.InterFreqHoA1A2TimeToTrig Network plan This parameter specifies the time-to-trigger for events A1 and A2 for inter-

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.
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).

parameter to the RSRP in the area where the UE throughput in the serving

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.
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).

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
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.
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).
A3 based Interfreq InterFreqHoGroup.A3InterFreqHoA2ThdRsrp Network plan This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for event A2 associated with
A2 RSRP threshold (negotiation not event-A3-triggered inter-frequency handover. A relatively small value
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) 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.
Intra-RAT Inter-Frequency Handover Parameters
Intra-RAT handover parameters are contained in the IntraRatHoComm MO.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Threshold Parameters Related to Coverage-based Handovers
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.
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.
3. Run the MOD INTERFREQHOGROUP command to reconfigure the following parameters:

7.3.1 When to Use Service-based Inter-Frequency Handover

You can enable service-based inter-frequency handover if service differentiation is required by assigning services of different priorities to different frequencies. For example,
services with a QCI of 1 can be assigned to a narrow-bandwidth frequency and services with other QCIs be assigned to other wide-bandwidth frequencies. Note that service-based
inter-frequency handover can be enabled on multiple E-UTRAN frequencies, but their QCI-based policy configurations must be the same.

Before you deploy this feature, check whether the neighboring E-UTRAN frequencies can provide continuous coverage. If the neighboring E-UTRAN frequency does not provide
continuous coverage, user experience with the services that are handed over will be affected.

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.
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
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 can be found, contact Huawei technical support engineers.

7.4.1 When to Use Distance-based Inter-Frequency Handover

If high bands and low bands are used to cover separate but bordering areas, RF signals from a high-band cell may be able to travel a long distance (for example, three times the
inter-site spacing) and cause severe cross-cell coverage to low-band cells. In this situation, if the low-band cells are not configured as neighboring cells of the high-band cell, inter-
frequency measurements cannot be triggered in time and call drops will occur. To reduce the probability of such call drops, you can enable distance-based inter-frequency
handover.

Before deploying distance-based inter-frequency handover, collect information about the distance that the RF signals of the cell exerting overshoot coverage based on the inter-
eNodeB distance on the live network. This distance is the criterion for the distance-based inter-frequency handover threshold.

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-

7.5.1 When to Use UL-quality-based Inter-Frequency Handover

Coverage-based inter-frequency handovers are triggered based on DL signal quality. However, there may be a huge imbalance between the DL and UL signal quality: The UL
signal quality may be relatively poor while the DL signal quality is fairly satisfactory. If this occurs, inter-frequency handovers cannot be promptly triggered. To handle this problem,
you can enable UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover.
Before deploying UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover, collect the causes of the imbalance between the UL and DL signal quality as well as the possible magnitudes of the
imbalance. In addition, you need to collect the requirements of the local network plan for the UL data rate at the cell edge.

Using MML Commands
1. Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command to enable UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover.

2. (Optional) Run the MOD CELLHOPARACFG command to modify the UlBadQualHoMcsThd and UlBadQualHoIblerThd parameters.

//Modifying uplink bad quality handover decision threshold

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.
3. Observe the messages traced over the Uu interface again.

As the uplink IBLER of the UE increases, if the RRC_CONN_RECFG message, which is a handover command, contains the target cell access information, you can
infer that UL-quality-based inter-frequency handover has been triggered.

7.6.1 When to Use Frequency-Priority-based Inter-Frequency Handover

You are advised to enable frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover in the following scenarios:
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.

If blind handover is required for inter-frequency handovers, the target cells for blind handover or blind redirection must be specified for each cell, and the corresponding blind
handover priorities must be configured.
Collect information about the coverage of different bands. This information serves as a basis for setting the thresholds used to trigger events A1, A2, and A4.
If blind handover is used in frequency-priority-based inter-frequency handover scenarios, collect information about the neighboring cells to configure them with blind handover
priorities in the range of 17 to 32.

frequency-priority-based handovers. Set this parameter (with a value ranging from 1 to

the serving cell. Set this parameter to a larger value for a neighboring cell that has
wider overlapped coverage or a lower frequency.
