Introduction
1 Introduction
This document describes the 1xRTT CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs featureand its main benefits and impacts in the LTE RAN.
When CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs is enabled, LTE radio failures and LTEpaging to the UE is prevented while on a 1xRTT CS call.
1.1 Basic Characteristics
This section describes the basic characteristics of the feature.
FDD FAJ 121 0845, CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs
Replaces: N/A
Dependencies
This feature has no prerequisite features.
This feature affects no other features.
1.2 Benefits
This section describes the benefits of this feature.
The CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs feature is a licensed feature. It allowsUser Equipment (UE) in either RRC_CONNECTED or RRC_IDLE to gracefullydisconnect its RRC connection from the LTE network to answer or initiatea CS call on 1xRTT. These disconnections no longer appear as radio linkfailures in Performance Management (PM) counters. This feature also preventssuperfluous paging to UE that are unavailable because they are handling aspeech call on 1xRTT.
1.3 Additional Information
More information about this feature and related topics can be found in thefollowing documentation:
• 3GPP TS 23.272
• 3GPP TS 36.331
• 3GPP TS 36.413

CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs
2.3.1 Initialization
Once the feature is enabled, SIB8 messages sent to the UE containing thecsfb-SupportForLimitedDualRadioUEs parameter.
2.3.2 Signaling Flow
The following scenario occurs when the user decides to make a MobileOriginating call or is about to receive a Mobile Terminating (MT) call:
1 The UE is E-UTRAN RRC_CONNECTED or E-UTRAN RRC_IDLE andregistered with 1xRTT.
2 The user of the UE performs a Mobile Originating CS call or is about toreceive a MT CS call.
3 The UE sends an extended service request to the MME over NAS (passingtransparently through the eNodeB).
4 The MME sends a S1 UE Context Modification indicating CS Fallbackrequired. If the UE is in RRC_IDLE state, the MME sends a S1 UE ContextSetup Request message indicating CS Fallback required.
5 The E-UTRAN sends a S1 UE Context Modification Response. If theUE is in RRC_IDLE state, the E-UTRAN sends a S1 UE Context SetupResponse message.
6 E-UTRAN performs a RRC Connection Release.
7 A S1 UE Context Release Request is sent to MME.
8 MME suspends all bearers for the UE
9 MME sends a UE Context Release to the E-UTRAN.
10 The 1xRTT Mobile Originating or MT Call is established.

Network Impact
4 Network Impact
This section describes how the CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs feature impactsthe network functions and capabilities.
4.1 Capacity
This section provides information on the impact of the feature on networkcapacity.
This feature provides a small increase in radio capacity by freeing wasted LTEradio resources of dual mode UE that engages in CS calls on the 1xRTTnetwork.
4.2 Paging
Dual-Band UE on CS calls in 1xRTT networks is not paged by the LTE network.

5.4 Affected System Functions
Table 2 lists functions affected by the CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs feature.
Table 2 Affected System Functions
Function Description
CS Call Setup Time on1xRTT
This feature increases the CS call setup time on 1xRTT for dual-radio UEbecause the radio connection on LTE must be removed before the 1xRTT callcan be setup. CS call setup time on 1xRTT for dual-radio UE is still faster thansingle-radio UE because they are already connected to the 1xRTT network.

6.1 KPIs
Table 3 lists the main Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) associated with theCS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs feature.
Table 3 KPIs
KPI Description
Drop Call Rate Enabling the CS Fallback for Dual-Radio UEs feature reduces the dropcall rate (pmErabRelAbnormalEnb / (pmErabRelAbnormalEnb +pmErabRelNormalEnb)) because pmErabRelNormalEnb is peggedwhen releasing the radio link prior to fallback and that the UE can no longerpeg pmErabRelAbnormalEnb once it disconnects from LTE.
