I have been an xDSL/GPON/Ethernet/IP System Architect for the past 15 years and recently I started to work on LTE. During one of my searches on detailed LTE information I came accross your site. Looking at your papers and presentations, I must admit I never saw more detailled drawings than yours ! Congratulations for those who created them !
I wonder which software package are you using ? I'm a regular Microsoft Visio user but IMO this package falls short for this kind of drawings ..

Hello Mr. Dirk Van Aken,
Thanks for having interest in our site.
Most of our diagrams were created using Microsoft Visio. And we didn't use any special SW package. While providing professional consulting services in various technical fields over 10 years, we have created quite a lot of Visio templates ourselves.
Sincerely, Netmanias.com

This is what I need to understand call flows. Finally I am in right place.

Hi Netmanias,
Thanks for these excellent explanations. Recently I cleared an interview in which your tutorials played a major role. :)
Keep goind and enlighten the world with technology knowledge

Hi Netmanias,
Could you please provide your tutorials on LTE RACH & HARQ procedures ?

Nice to understand and very intresting

I think, the scene ii) the MME doesn’t have the valid Last UE Context of the UE can cover the scene iv) the UE was detached from other MME last time.

Thanks for this material.
Very helpful and easy to understand. Hope that you will upload some material about AS side.

Thanks Alot....
Nice and simple..Please share more documents on LTE..

Hello,
Do you maybe have call flow for the following case:
1.Subscriber is attached to 2-3G network.
2.Subscriber is not provisioned on HSS
3.Subscriber is using LTE capable phone.
Subscriber has active 2-3G PDP session. What is the scenario when UE attempts to handover to 4G in this case? Can Modify Bearer request from MME to SGW happen before successfull ULR/ULA (that obviously can not be successfull, as subscriber is not provisioned in HSS)?
Thank You!

In a very simple way the subject is explained nicely...
AnnaG2016-04-27 03:01:49
Very good documentation. Easy to understand and to the point.
Had a question- Figure 2 Attache case 3. If the NAS security setup is already done with OLD MME, when the UE attaches to the new MME, How can the new MME process these messages and contact the old MME ? Wont the integrity check fail as the integrity setup of the UE was with old MME and not the new MME ?
santosh.patra2016-06-24 12:16:23
Very useful and easy to understand the flow end to end...Kudos to the team.
Thank U.

Thank you for breaking down the call flow into easy to understand steps supported with beautuful visuals
May Allah guide you to the ultimate truth.

Dear Netmania Team,
If new MME sucessfully identified old MME , then how Old MME not able to provide UE identity to New MME. As per this scenario UE previously attached to Old MME and must have UE identifucation. Pls let me know what causes "Identification Response (error cause)"
*******************************************************************************
Attach Case 3: Unknown UE, MME Changed
The UE requests for initial attach using its Old GUTI. So, the MME (New MME) asks the Old MME for the Last UE Context relating to the UE, but fails to receive any. So, the MME requests the UE for a UE ID, and acquires an IMSI.
[UE → New MME] Attach Request (Old GUTI)
[New MME → Old MME] Identification Request (Old GUTI)
[Old MME] No IMSI
[New MME ← Old MME] Identification Response (error cause)
[UE ← New MME] Identity Request (UE ID = IMSI)
[UE → New MME] Identity Response (IMSI)
