General parameters with typical network values of the three types of reselection in UMTS is presented

below:
3G to 3G

qrxlevmin = -109 dBm

(min acceptable threshold of cell RSCP)

qqualmin = -18 dB

(min acceptable threshold of cell quality EcNo)

sintersearch = 10 dB (f1,f2 case)

sintrasearch = 14 dB

(same frequency)

3G to 2G

ssearchrat = 2dB
(indicates when to trigger measurements on GSM cells, increasing this
value quickens while decreasing it delays the process)
treselect = 2s
qoffset1sn = 7dB for gsmrelation; 0 dB for utranrelation
and target signal offset when reselection strategy is RSCP)
qoffset2sn = 0 dB

(Source

(Source and target signal offset when reselection strategy is EcNo)

2G to 3G

FDDqRSCPmin = -102 dBm

FDDqmin = -12 dB
Equation
The equations on which the decision is made using these parameters are:
For EcNo based reselection:
Squal <= sintrasearch

OR

where Squal = qmeasured -

sintersearch

OR

ssearchrat

qqualmin

Thus the equation becomes:


qmeas - qqualmin <= sintrasearch
qmeas <= qqualmin + sintrasearch
Similarly, EcNo values can be replaced with RSCP for the RSCP based reselection.
