Correct Answer
B. After UE selects a new PLMN
Explanation
After UE selects a new PLMN, it is possible for cell selection to be triggered. This is because when the UE selects a new PLMN, it needs to search for and connect to a suitable cell within that PLMN. Cell selection is the process by which the UE scans and evaluates the available cells in order to determine the best cell to connect to. Therefore, selecting a new PLMN can trigger cell selection as the UE searches for a suitable cell within the chosen PLMN.
10.
What modulation does LTE support for PBCH?
Correct Answer
B. QPSK
Explanation
LTE supports QPSK modulation for PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel). QPSK stands for Quadrature Phase Shift Keying, which is a modulation scheme that uses four different phase shifts to represent digital data. QPSK allows for the transmission of two bits per symbol, making it more efficient than BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying). 16QAM and 64QAM are higher order modulation schemes that can transmit more bits per symbol, but they are not supported for PBCH in LTE. Therefore, the correct answer is QPSK.

Which solution required the RIM?
Correct Answer
C. Flash CSFB
Explanation
Flash CSFB (Circuit Switched Fallback) is a solution that is used in LTE networks when a device needs to make a voice call but there is no VoLTE (Voice over LTE) coverage available. In this case, the device falls back to the legacy circuit-switched network (2G or 3G) to establish the voice call. The RIM (Radio Interface Module) is required in the Flash CSFB solution to facilitate the handover from LTE to the circuit-switched network for voice calls. Therefore, the solution that requires the RIM is Flash CSFB.
21.
Which PLMN will be selected by UE to attach to the network?
Correct Answer
C. RPLMN
Explanation
The UE will select the RPLMN (Registered PLMN) to attach to the network. RPLMN refers to the home network or the network that the UE is currently registered with. When the UE is in its home network, it will prioritize connecting to the RPLMN for better network quality and services. If the RPLMN is not available, the UE will then search for other PLMNs such as OPLMN (Operator PLMN) or UPLMN (User Preferred PLMN) based on the network selection criteria. However, the RPLMN is the preferred choice for attachment to the network.

Which parameter in Event A3 is used to prevent Ping-Pong handover
Correct Answer
D. Hysteresis
Explanation
Hysteresis is the parameter in Event A3 that is used to prevent Ping-Pong handover. Hysteresis is a technique used in cellular networks to avoid frequent handovers between adjacent cells. It introduces a small delay in the handover decision, allowing the mobile device to stay connected to the current cell even if the signal strength of the target cell momentarily exceeds the serving cell. This prevents unnecessary handovers and improves the overall network performance and user experience.
33.
What is the impact for handover when setting large value of Ofn?
Correct Answer
A. If this parameter is set to a larger value, there is a higher probability of handing over UEs to cells on the neighboring E-UTRAN frequency, but these UEs may fail to access the target cells because of poor signal quality in the target cells
Explanation
When the parameter Ofn is set to a larger value, there is a higher probability of handing over UEs to cells on the neighboring E-UTRAN frequency. However, these UEs may fail to access the target cells due to poor signal quality in the target cells. In other words, increasing the value of Ofn increases the likelihood of handover to neighboring cells, but it also increases the risk of unsuccessful handover due to signal quality issues in the target cells.
