摘要:
User equipment (UE) can detect a Radio Link Control (RLC) unrecoverable error and a Radio Link (RL) failure. The two errors are handled differently while the UE is in a dedicated channel (DCH) state. The RL failure leads to execution of Radio Access Bearer (RAB) release steps, characterized by utilizing respective timer values to determine if associated RABs should be released. The RLC unrecoverable error is not permitted to execute the RAB release steps. This prevents unnecessary dropping of services. The UTRAN can optionally include and set the indicators to command the UE to perform the indicated RLC re-establishment procedure.
摘要:
A mobile unit, or UE (User Equipment) includes a Radio Resource Control (RRC) and a plurality of unique states defining the connectivity between the UE and a base station. Once a RRC indicates that it is "Out of Service", a series of timers are started to limit the duration of attempts by the RRC to re-enter an "In Service" condition before the RRC releases allocated resources and moves to an Idle Mode. In certain circumstances, it is necessary to stop one or more of these timers to prevent inadvertently severing the connection.
