1 C2 | 06 November 2014
Target:
Provide service continiuty when moving across the Network
covered by LTE800/1800/2600 layers and to 2G and 3G

LTE2600 Criteria: Æ coverage:


- keep UEs as long as
possible in LTE layer
Æ performance:
- steer UEs based on
LTE1800 perceived throughput
Æ capacity:
- steer UEs based on
cell load

LTE800

Æ Idle Mode
Æ Connected or dedicated Mode
GSM/UMTS

06/11/2014 Vodafone confidential – C2 2


Æ Coverage: - keep UEs as long as possible in LTE layer

(min.time a neighbor cell must be ranked better than serving cell in order to trigger cell reselection)
