Call reestablishment is a function by which radio links (RLs) are reestablished when a
service interruption or an access failure occurs due to bad RF environment. that cause
significant signal quality fluctuation.
Call reestablishment initiated by a UE: The UE sends a call reestablishment request to the
network to restore services upon detecting a downlink RL failure or a signaling radio bearer
(SRB) reset.
Call reestablishment initiated by the RAN: The RAN informs the UE to start call reestablishment
upon detecting a service interruption or an access failure.
Benefits
Call reestablishment improves user experience by increasing the radio access bearer (RAB) setup
success rate and reducing the call drop rate.

The possible causes of a service interruption or an access failure that may result
in call re-establishment are :
Downlink RL failure
Uplink RL failure
SRB reset
UE SRB reset
Before releasing RLs due to the preceding causes in those processes, the RAN
detects the service interruption or access failure and initiates call
reestablishment,..

Meanwhile, the UE starts T314 timer for CS services or the T315 timer for PS
services which is maximum allowed time for UE to try to send Cell Update

message
UE can resend Cell Update message if he didnt have a reply from network
If faulty RLs are restored before T314/T315 expires, the call reestablishment is
successful. Interrupted services are restored or UE access succeeds.
If faulty RLs are not restored before T314/T315 expires, the call reestablishment
fails. And UE access fails.

Uplink RL failure
RNC starts the timer for call reestablishment (RsvdPara2 timer for CS
services and RsvdPara3 timer for PS services)

After the NodeB stops downlink power transmission for a UE's RLs, UE
will receive N313 number of "out-sync" indications
UE transmits the Cell Update message with cause value "Radio Link
Failure" to the RNC for call reestablishment.
If faulty RLs are not restored before T314/T315 expires, the call
reestablishment fails. Services are released or UE access fails.

SRB Reset
RNC does not receive a response from the UE before the number of SRB RLC
PDU retransmissions reaches the value of the NoDiscardMaxDAT parameter.
RNC triggers an SRB reset and sends the Reset PDU message to the UE to
reestablish RLC entities on both sides
