Best reject cause which can be used is 'retry upon entry into a new cell' This will not put the LA into forbidden list and the problem you metioned in your mail can be avoided. <b></b> - Rajesh Pandey Mon, 09 Jun 2008 16:55:27 +0100 http://www.thinkfemtocell.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=86&Itemid=110#pc_17 Hello all, One of the technical difficulties that the public knows little about but that has the current triallers fretting is that of location area (LA) updates. The number of location area codes was not a problem in the usual macro/micro deployment but will be with femtos. If someone's femto has the same LA as mine and I am not allowed on theirs when I walk by, my phone sees that base station as "forbidden" and keeps track of the LA in its "not permitted list" when i reach my own femto, I might not be able to get onto my own femto. How about that? - Sam Taylor Sun, 18 May 2008 17:43:39 +0100
