Introdu ction In RAN2#58 in Kobe, RAN2 has decided that, to allow for sufficient mobility control without NCL, an offset value shall be included in BCH, and that the UE shall read the neighbour cell BCH to obtain this offset value both in ACTIVE and IDLE modes [1]
The offset value biases the measured quantity of the corresponding cell for mobility control
It was expressed by operators that this offset is necessary primarily to control the cell boudaries considering the DL and UL coverage imbalance, caused by DL/UL feeder cable loss difference (due to TM
