SUMMARY OF THE HANDOVER CAUSES ALGORITHMS

ALCATEL-LUCENT
HO RELATED WITH INDOOR CELL:
FROM UPPER --> INDOOR
cause 14: High level in neighbour lower or indoor layer cell for slow mobile from
upper to indoor
FROM INDOOR --> OTHER INDOOR
Cause 12: PWR BDGT from indoor to indoor or from indoor to upper if
MS_SPEED=FAST
cause 23: Traffic handover from Indoor to indoor if
EN_MULTIBAND_PBGT_HO=disable
FROM INDOOR --> OTHER INDOOR OR UPPER
Cause 2: Too low quality uplink from indoor to indoor or upper
Cause 3: Too low level uplink from indoor to indoor or upper
Cause 4: Too low quality downlink from indoor to indoor or upper
Cause 5: Too low level downlink from indoor to indoor or upper
Cause 6: Too long distance from indoor to indoor or upper
cause 7: Bad SACCH frames un-decoded if Cell is MICRO and indoor to other indoor
or upper
cause 24: General capture handover from indoor to upper
FROM INDOOR --> SAME INDOOR (other TimeSlot)
Cause 15: Too high interference level uplink from Indoor to same indoor
Cause 16: Too high interference level downlink from Indoor to same indoor
Cause 29: TFO HO from indoor to same indoor
Cause 30: Move from PS to CS zone from indoor to same indoor
==================================================
=========
HO causes for multi-band networks
cause 21 : high level in the neighboring cell in the preferred band
HO causes for concentric cells
cause 10 : too low level on the uplink in the inner zone
cause 11 : too low level on the downlink in the inner zone
cause 13 : too high level on the uplink and the downlink in the outer zone
- These causes will be used within multi-band cells
==================================================
=========
Emergency intercell handovers
cause 2 : too low quality on the uplink
cause 3 : too low level on the uplink
cause 4 : too low quality on the downlink
cause 5 : too low level on the downlink
cause 6 : too large distance between the MS and the BTS
May be triggered
From any cell type / band / layer / zone

Towards any cell except the serving one

If the MS is connected to the inner zone of a multi-band cell, the serving cell is
a candidate
==================================================
=========
Emergency intracell handovers
cause 15 : high interference on the uplink (intra-cell HO)
cause 16 : high interference on the downlink (intra-cell HO)
May be triggered
From any cell type / band / layer / zone
Towards the same cell
==================================================
=========
Emergency handovers specific to concentric cells
Intracell handovers from an inner to an outer zone
cause 10 : too low level on the uplink in the inner zone
cause 11 : too low level on the downlink in the inner zone
May be triggered
From the inner zone of a concentric cell
Towards the outer zone, same cell
