2G to 3G cell selection and re-selection
Parameters
Qsearch-I :
This parameter specifies the level threshold for cell reselection in idle mode.
Qsearch-C:
This parameter specifies one threshold of the signal level for HO in connection mode.
Qsearch-P:
This parameter specifies one threshold of the signal level for cell reselection in packet
transfer mode.
Value Meaning
If the signal level of the serving cell is [0, 15]. Generally speaking , [0,7] can be used in
network where 3G coverage is better than 2G, otherwise [8,15].
When it set to be 7, MS will always search 3G and try to re-select to 3G; when it is on 2G as
service cell, while it set to 15, MS will never search 3G and perform reselection to 3G.

Judgment conditions (FDD)
Conditions 1 (Relative threshold: Qoffset)

UMTS RSCP > Average receive level of the current serving cell + Qoffset
Current setting of Qoffset is 0, that means Negative infinity, so whether RSCP of 3G cell
is greater than 2G or not, this condition will always meet.
In case of Qoffset set to [1,7], RSCP of 3G cell can be 28 to 4 dB lower than 2G, this
condition still meet.
In case of Qoffset set to [8,15], RSCP of 3G cell should be higher than 2G.

UMTS Ec/No > Qmin - QminOffset
Current setting of Qmin is 5 means -10 dB, and QminOffset is 0 means offset is 0.
So when Ec/No of 3G greater than -10 dB, the condition can meet.

SUMMARY
UMTS RSCP > Average receive level of the current serving cell + Qoffset
UMTS Ec/No > Qmin QminOffset
UMTS RSCP > RSCPmin
If All above 3 conditions last more than 5 seconds, MS will reselect the cell among UMTS
candidate cells with the strongest receive level.
From preceding analysis, 2G would perform reselection to 3G only when RSCP of 3G

above -102 dBm and EcIo above -10dB.

Parameters introduction
Ssearch, RAT :
Threshold for inter-RAT cell reselection. When the quality of the serving cell is lower than this
threshold plus the [Qqualmin] of the cell, the inter-RAT cell reselection procedure will be started. This
parameter is not configured when its value is 127.
If the cell reselection threshold is set to a comparatively high value, the UE may frequently start cell
reselections; On Contrary, it is difficult for cell reselections to be started, and the UE may not timely
reside in the cells with good quality.
GUI Value Range: -16~10, 127
Actual Value Range: {-32~20}, {127}, step:2
Unit: dB
Default Value: 2
Recommended Value: 2
HUAWEI Confidential
Page 9
Qqualmin:
The minimum required quality threshold corresponding to CPICH Ec/No. The UE can camp on
the cell only when the measured CPICH Ec/No is greater than the value of this parameter.
The higher the parameter value is, the more difficult it is for the UE to reside in the cell. On
Contrary, the easier for the UE to reside in the cell, but it is possible that the UE cannot receive the
system messages that are sent through the PCCPCH.
GUI Value Range: -24~0
Actual Value Range: -24~0
Unit: dB
Default Value: -18
Recommended Value: -18
HUAWEI Confidential
Page 10
Qrxlevmin :
The minimum required RX threshold corresponding to CPICH RSCP. The UE can camp on the
cell only when the measured CPICH RSCP is greater than the value of this parameter.
The setting of Qrxlevmin should be related to Qqualmin. The higher the parameter is, the more
difficult it is for the UE to reside in the cell. On Contrary, the easier for the UE to reside in the cell, but
it is possible that the UE cannot receive the system messages that are sent through the PCCPCH.
GUI Value Range: -58~-13
Actual Value Range: -115~-25, step:2
Unit: dBm
Default Value: -58
Recommended Value: -58

Page 11
Qhyst2s :
The hysteresis of the serving FDD cells in idle mode when the measurement for cell selection
and reselection is set to CPICH Ec/No. This parameter is not configured when its value is 255, if it is
not configured, [Qhyst1s] will be adopted as the value.
It aims to prevent the ping-pong effect of the cell reselection, the greater the slow fading variance
is, the greater this parameter.
GUI Value Range: 0~20, 255

Actual Value Range: {0~40}, {255}, step:2
Unit: dB
Default Value: 1
Recommended Value: 1
Parameter Relationship: This parameter is valid
only when Measured value is set to CPICH_ECNO.

Cell selection steps
When UE in the idle mode, it will monitor the using cell and neighbor cell signal quality,
in order to choose the best service cell.
Step 1:
Measurements (Ec/No) < Qqualmin + Ssearch, RAT
UE measuring the Ec/No of service cell, and compare with the value of
Qqualmin+Ssearch,RAT(SIB3) . If the meet formula, start to step2( judgment).
