LTE Call Procedure Initial To Data

1. The UE scans for signals from nearby cells and detects synchronization signals to identify the primary and secondary synchronization signals (PSS and SSS) and physical cell ID (PCI). 2. The UE decodes system information from the cell to get the PLMN and starts decoding information to connect to the selected cell. 3. The UE sends a connection request message to initiate the RRC connection and setup of signaling radio bearers, then receives a connection setup message from the ENodeB.

LTE Call procedure Initial to data 

flow
by Neelrajsony
1. UE switch on- when UE on start search RSSI scan
2. UE figure out all channels which is show RSSI value > Threshold (this threshold is
also up to UE/chipset implementation, not determined by 3GPP)
3. UE detect PSS and SSS and get PCI
4. UE decodes system info- MIB (Bandwidth SFN and PHICH) and Start PLMN
decoding
5. UE get PLMN by SIB 1 and based on USIM info UE start to comp on real
candidate cell and try decoding SI & proceed to registration process
6. UE request to RRC connection request(to trigger RRC connection or creation OF
SRB1 by RACH Info-UE identity Establishment cause )
7. After RACH procedure UE receive RRC connection setup by ENodeB (Channel-
DL-SCH –to setup SRB1 Contain mgs- SRB identity,RLC ask mode , Logical channel
priority1 , Transmission mode and with RRC connection setup you can see all MAC
layer parameters)
8. RRC connection setup complete {Attached request or PDN connectivity request}–
Purpose- to acknowledge SRB1 has been setup successfully  and to send attached
request mgs to MME via ENodeB & these mgs are AS mgs
9. UE initial NAS and Authentication info request
10. EMM identity request (Network request to UE send IMSI)
11. EMM identity response (UE send IMSI to network)
12. Authentication request (Downlink NAS msg. purpose to check whether UE and
network are legitimate or not In LTE UE and network both authenticate each other,
MME send Authentication info req. to HSS and MME received Authentication info
from HSS KASME RAND AUTN XRES  all these parameters used during
authentication process)
13. Authentication response  
14. EMM security mode command (Downlink NAS and downlink info transfer) to
configure NAS layer security(Integrity and ciphering)
15. EMM Security mode complete (Uplink NAS to confirm security algorithm and
security context has been successfully implemented)
16. ESM information request
17. ESM information response (UE send ESM information such as APN protocol
configuration option to MME)
18. UE capability enquiry (to initial context setup request attach from ENodeB to UE-
This mgs is sent only when ENodeB does not receive UE capabilities from MME)
19. UE capability information UE sent to ENodeB and ENodeB send same to MME
20. Security mode command ENodeB to UE (To create secure environment before
sending Access stratum data such as SRB2 configuration DRB configuration etc. 
ENodeB selected ciphering and security algorithm as per UE capabilities)
21. AS stratum security mode complete to ENodeB
22. ENodeB send RRC connection reconfiguration to UE by NAS (Purpose of this to
setup SRB2 and to setup DRB5- DRB 5 is used to transfer user data to network and
to send attach accept to UE , to send “Activate default EPS bearer context request”
msg. to UE this mgs has all the parameters related to data flow such as full APN
name IP address allocated by PDN gateway , Priority of air interface and QOS)
23. RRC reconfiguration complete (Initial context response)
24. Attach compete
25. Measurement control
