– eNodeB orders UE to move to a GSM or WCDMA cell by using PSHO
procedures. eNodeB may decide target cell based on measurements
during the HO preparation phase. Target cell SI provided to UE during the
HO procedure

› Two solutions:
– MSC Pool assures page response to correct MSC (by TMSI-NRI)
› Strongly recommended in CSFB implementations
– MT Roaming Forward reroutes the call and subscriber to the new MSC

Feature introduction
› CSFB requires SW upgrade and SGs-interface in the MSC
– With MSC Pool only one or a few MSC’s can serve all LA’s
› More CSFB-MSC’s can be upgraded as traffic demand grows
– CSFB can be provided to a pool of MSC-S Blade Cluster nodes
prior to 12B
