Introduction
 SRVCC is a solution aimed at providing continuous voice
services on LTE networks.
 The SRVCC technology is used to ensure voice service continuity

when a single-radio UE is handed over from the E-UTRAN/EPC
to the UTRAN or GERAN.
Architecture
Contents

2.1 SRVCC from E-UTRAN to UTRAN
2.2 SRVCC from E-UTRAN to GERAN
Common Causes
 Several factors may trigger SRVCC to UTRAN.
SRVCC trigger Scenario
 SRVCC Trigger Scenario
 coverage caused
 Trigger in EUTRAN cell edge with B1 event.
 load caused
 EUTRAN is high load, and UTRAN neighbour cell is low load.
 service caused
 Totally 3 modes can be configured by MOD
ServiceIrHoCfgGroup.InterRatHoState for each QCI: NO_HO,
PERMIT_HO, MUST_HO. If QCI1 is configured to MUST_HO, eNB will
trigger SRVCC procedure once UE setup QCI1.
SRVCC Procedure
PS service continuity
 PS service continuity
 UE & UTRAN support “CS+PS” SRVCC.
 MME initiate the HO prepare procedure of voice bearer and PS
bearer to MSC and SGSN respectively.
 UE or UTRAN only support “CS only” SRVCC.

 MME only initiate the HO prepare procedure to MSC for voice bearer.
 PS service will resume in UTRAN by RAU (Routing Area Update)

procedure.
SRVCC Flexible Steering to UTRAN
 Make VoIP handover to proper UTRAN frequency by SRVCC.
Target frequency band configurable
Voice service Voice-Prioritized frequency
Frequency 1: R99
Data service Data-Prioritized frequency
Frequency 2: HSPA
SRVCC Selection Procedure

2.1 SRVCC from E-UTRAN to UTRAN
2.2 SRVCC from E-UTRAN to GERAN
SRVCC to GERAN Cause
SRVCC Selection Procedure
 SRVCC is one of the policies on
E-UTRAN to GERAN handover.
Other policies include PS
handover, CCO/NACC,
redirection, and flash redirection;
their selection procedures are
described in Inter-RAT Mobility
Management in Connected
Mode Feature Parameter
Description.

from LTE (defined in 3GPP TS 23.216 R8)
 IMS: Support SRVCC (defined in 3GPP TS 23.216 R8)
 UE: Support VoLTE and SRVCC (defined in 3GPP TS 23.216 R8)

Activation Guide (2/2)
 Enabling the SRVCC Flexible Steering to UTRAN Feature:
 Perform all configurations for “SRVCC to UTRAN feature”
 Add UTRAN neighbour cell
 Switch on SRVCC to UTRAN: MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH: HoModeSwitch :

UtranSrvccSwitch-10
 Add an inter-RAT handover policy group: ADD INTERRATPOLICYCFGGROUP: UtranHoCfg:

SRVCC
 Configure the settings of a standardized QCI1 policy group: MOD STANDARDQCI: Qci: QCI1
 Configure enable the UTRAN hierarchy-based measurement algorithm and

SRVCC flexible steering switch
 Configure voice service priority for the neighboring cell on the UTRAN
frequency

Key Parameters
Verification – SRVCC to UTRAN
 The SRVCC feature is efficient when the
L.IRATHO.SRVCC.E2W.PrepAttOut start to count;
 The following counters can evaluate the successful rate of SRVCC to

UTRAN, and insulate the issue if there is failure
Feature/ Counter ID Counter Name Counter

Function Description
