Name Description
T300 RRC Conn Req Retransmit Timer How long the UE waits for the RRC Connection Setup after sending an
RRC Connection Setup Request.
N300 RRC Conn Req Max Retransmits Maximum number of retransmissions of the RRC Connection Request
message.
T312 Link Establishment Timer (Idle) How long the UE waits for an N312 "in-sync" indication from layer 1
when establishing a dedicated channel and the connection status is
Idle
T312 Link Establishment Timer (Connected) How long the UE waits for an N312 "in-sync" indication from layer 1
when establishing a dedicated channel in connected status. The value
0 is not used.
N312 Link Establishment In-Sync Count (Idle) Num number of " in-syncs" required when establishing a dedicated
channel when the connection status is Idle.
N312 Link Establishment In-Sync Count (Conn.) Num of " in-syncs" required when establishing a dedicated channel in
connected status.
T313 Out-of-Sync Reception Timer After receiving N313 consecutive "out of sync" indications from layer,
the UE shall start T313. Upon receiving N315 successive "in sync"
indications from layer 1, the UE shall stop and reset the T313 timer. If
T313 expires, RLF".
N313 Successive Out-Of-Sync Reception Max Max number of successive "out of sync" received from L1.
N315 Successive In-Sync Reception Counter Max number of successive "in sync" received from L1 during T313 is
activated.
T308 RRC Conn Release Comp Retransmit
Timer
Time between the transmissions of RRC Connection Release Complete
message.
N308 RRC Conn Release Comp Max
Retransmits
Max number of retransmissions of the RRC CONNECTION RELEASE
COMPLETE message.
T3212 Periodic Location Update Timer How often the UE will perform the periodic location update procedure.
It is signaled in SIB1 (0 = infinity).
SIB Function(Information carried)
SIB1 NAS information,timer related information mainly used in IDLE/CONNECTED Mode
SIB2 Available URAs(max. 8 URAs in a cell)
SIB3 Cell selection/reselection parameters used by UE in IDLE mode, if SIB4 is not present
then it can also be used by UEs(in CONNECTED MODE).
SIB4 Cell selection/reselection parameters used by UE in CONNECTED mode,if not present
SIB3 to be used by UE
SIB5 Carry info. on common physical channels(PICH/AICH/P-CCPCH/PRACH/SCCPCH) for
UE(in IDLE mode), in the absence of SIB6 it is also used for UE in CONNECTED state.
SIB6 Carry info. on common physical channels(PICH/AICH/P-CCPCH/PRACH/SCCPCH) for
UE(in CONNECTED mode), in the absence of SIB6, UE need to use SIB5
SIB7 carry fast changing cell parameter informations(uplink interference levels,dynamic
persistence value)
SIB8 carry static information for CPCH (only for FDD use)
SIB9 carry dynamic information for CPCH (only for FDD use)
SIB10 DRAC procedure related information(sent over FACH channel)
SIB11 Measurement control information(UE in IDLE mode), If SIB12 is absent it is also used
for UE in CONNECTED mode.
SIB12 Measurement control information(UE in CONNECTED mode), If SIB12 is absent,
SIB11 can be used by UE
SIB13-
SIB13.4
ANSI-41 parameter related information used for ANSI-41 core networks.
SIB14 Outer loop power control information(TDD mode use only),used over dedicated and
common physical channels.
SIB15-
SIB15.4
carry information used for UE positioning methods(e.g. GPS/OTDOA)
SIB16 carry information related to channel configuration used for handover
SIB17 carry information on shared common channels(to be used in CONNECTED mode,TDD
use)
SIB18 carry PLMN identities of neighbouring cells(used by UE in IDLE/CONNECTED MODE)
SIB19 Inter-RAT frequency and priority information
