Intra-frequency handover
Mobile Evaluated Handover
Soft/er handover
Hard handover
UE simultaneously connected to many cells (maximum 3): Cells belonging to same site (intra-BTS),
SOFTER HANDOVER
Arises when inter-RNC SHO is not possible: Iur interface (between neighbouring RNCs) not implemented, or congested, or not supporting user plane, or due to whatever reason inhibiting inter-RNC SHO
ACTIVE SET
3GRANSIG/Phichet
Soft Handover
1
UE enters the SHO area, where coverage area of cell 1 and 2 overlap
3 1 2 3
Cell 1
2
Cell 2 has available resources, so its added to the AS. UE is connected both to cell 1 and 2.
Cell 2
3GRANSIG/Phichet
Intra-frequency handover
1
SHO need detection (internal in UE) (based on RNP parameters)
2
Measurement reporting (from UE to RNC) (based on RNP parameters)
3
Active Set update (commanded from RNC to UE)

EVENT 1B DELETION
A serving CPICH is no more good enough to stay in the active set
EVENT 1C REPLACEMENT
AS is full, a monitored CPICH becomes better than a serving one
3GRANSIG/Phichet
CPICH Ec/No is the received energy per chip divided by the power density in the WCDMA carrier band:
RSCP Ec / No RSSI
The accuracy of pilot Ec/No measurements is important for handover performance. Measurement accuracy depends on the filtering length and mobile speed. When a UE moves slowly or is stationary, filtering length (in ms) has to be long just enough to avoid fast fades leading to errors and causing unnecessary handovers within a short period. On the other hand long filtering length will cause handover delays to fast moving UEs.
3GRANSIG/Phichet
A monitored adjacent cell is ADDED to the Active Set when its good enough to bring a gain.
A serving cell is DELETED from the Active Set when its no more good enough.
