Not Implementing LTE 782 - ANR UE Fully Based • • • •
Current NSN MME has been upgraded to NS2.1 ANR UE Fully Based is supported only in NS2.2. Radio part is OK and Tested! Where CGI resolution of Target eNB can be seen and transfer to Source eNB. Afterward, it should get X2 CP IP Addr given by MME. Unfortunately MME is not transferring the needed information to Target eNB.

PCI = 0
IP@2 IP@3 PCI = 2
PCI = 1 IP@ = 2

In autoconfiguration the neighbor eNBs’ IPs are stored in ADIPNO object or in LNADJs and the eNBs get this data from Configurator. Based on this the X2 connection to neighbor relations can be established.

PCI Collisions and Confusions • 3GPP defines collision-free as “the PCI is unique in the area that the cell covers”
ideally only initial PCI values need to be assigned
• 3GPP defines confusion-free as “a cell shall not have neighboring cells with identical PCIs”
PCI values of ACTUAL cells need to be changed
