LTE Basic Procedure

  • UE is Off
  • Power On UE
  • < Frequency Search >
  • < Timing Sync >
  • < Cell Search > : Normally a UE would find multiple cells in this process
  • < Cell Selection >
  • MIB decoding
  • SIB decoding
  • < Initial RACH Process >
  • < Registration/Authentication/Attach>
  • < Default EPS Bearer Setup >
  • Now UE is in IDLE Mode
  • <(If the cursrent cell become weak or UE moves to another cell register) Cell Reselection>
  • <(When Paging message comes or User make a call) RACH Process>
  • < Setup Dedicated EPS Bearer >
  • Receive data
  • Transmit data
  • (If UE power is percieved too weak by the network) Network send TPC command to increase UE Tx Power
  • (If UE power is percieved too strong by the network) Network send TPC command to decrease UE Tx Power
  • (If UE moves to another cell region) Network and UE perform Handover procedure >User stop call and UE gets into IDLE mode
