EMM Procedure 6. Handover without TAU - Part 3. S1 Handover

SUMMARY
This document will describe the procedure for S1 handovers performed in an intra-LTE environment, as defined as EMM Case 6 in our technical document, “Eleven EMM Cases in an EMM Scenario”. First, features related to handovers on S1 protocol will be discussed, followed by detailed procedures of S1 handover. We will learn how EPC (MME) intervenes in preparation of a handover between eNBs, and how DL packets are forwarded through an indirect tunnel that passes S-GW during the handover interruption time for seamless service provision. We will also look into how EPC gets involved in switching the EPS bearer path after a handover. Finally, we will examine how information elements in EPS entities are different before and after the S1 handover procedure.

1. Introduction

 

In the previous document, “EMM Case 6. Handover without TAU – Part 2. Overview of X2 Handover” [1], we have discussed the procedures related to an X2 handover that is performed solely by two eNBs.

 

This document will focus on procedures for an S1 handover performed between two eNBs with intervention of EPC. As in X2 handovers discussed previously, we will assume both source and target eNBs are connected to the same MME/S-GW (intra-LTE environment), and are located in a TA that IS in the Tracking Area Identifier (TAI) list for the associated UE.

 

Chapter 2 describes the concept of S1 handover, and

Chapter 3 provides detailed procedures of S1 handover. Finally,

Chapter 4 will summarize how information elements in EPS entities are different before and after the handover.

As usual, nicely written and nicely diagrammed. Keep up the good work Netmanias!

It's very good in details. Thank you

Excellenbt details to make everythings clear and easy to understand.

 

Looking forward to similiar document for CSFB to 3G/2G and VoLTE Call Setup.

So good!But a question,why not use C/D instead B/A?   Because C/D+RRC=E-RAB

Thanks for your detail document. Can you publish document relating inter-RAT handover

I am blown away,

this is the best informative website ever. could you tell me which tools do you use to draw your figure?

Hi Team,

In the handover preparation diagram, it shows ECM and EMM state at Target ENB.

Shouldn's they appear as MME states?

 

Regards

Gautam

Excellent learning material, thanks. Do you have content for the two other S1 handover procedure especially on Inter-LTE HO to understand why actually that is triggered? 

 

• Inter-LTE Handover: UE’s serving MME and/or S-GW is changed after handover

■ Inter-MME Handover: UE’s serving MME is changed, but S-GW remains unchanged after handover

■ Inter-S-GW Handover: UE’s serving S-GW is changed, but MME remains unchanged after handover

■ Inter-MME/S-GW Handover: Both UE’s serving MME and S-GW are changed after handover

 

• Inter-RAT Handover: Handover between networks that use different radio access technology

■ UTRAN to E-UTRAN

■ E-UTRAN to UTRAN, etc.

Thank you for visiting Netmanias! Please leave your comment if you have a question or suggestion.
