從2014年1月起，我實驗性地為我的團隊展開了一個每日十分鐘的LTE FT培訓計畫。雖因法規與合約問題，我無法公開訓練教材，但這個頁面列出訓練課程。特別是第二階段的spec選讀部分，歡迎有興趣的FT朋友們參考。
[31 JUL 2014] This page listed 100 topics due to my new job contract issue. There are surely more an LTE field verification engineer should learn. Let's keep going! 礙於個人新合約問題，本頁面僅列出100個主題，但我們的學習並不因此而結束。
Please feel free to notify me if you have any comment or you found any error. 若您發現任何錯誤，懇請來信指教:

[Phase 1] LOG Hands-on
For this part, the best way is finding a good log for each topic and go through mainly the NAS and RRC signalling flow. For some topics, unfortunately you can only read from chipset maker's traces since no signalling on going. 這部分的學習方式是找一個如標題所示的LOG，觀察RRC和NAS的流程，以建立最基本的流程範例概念。有了大架構的概念後，可以稍微查一下24.301/36.331或其他相關spec看哪邊有不懂的，或是特別想知道的。以下大部分內容是OTA訊息，但一部分主題沒有OTA，只能看chipset maker的debug trace.

[Phase 2] LTE/VoLTE Spec Study
*This part should be experimental that the topics are not arranged in a systematical way. I suggest the learners to learn each topic carefully and then put all of the topics together to form a big and clear picture.
這部分的課程編排有點試驗性質。雖然都是相對基本的主題，但主題之間沒有順序性。因為目前參加這個訓練的都是有一定經驗的field engineer，主要是希望這些參加者可以仔細研究各主題，最後可以架構出完整而仔細的大全圖。

How to make use of 3GPP RP doc and CR?
如何使用3GPP RP文件和CR增進對spec的理解
- Take “25.331 Pre-Redirection Info” for example
- 以“25.331 Pre-Redirection Info”為例
(1) For generic study purpose, normally we download a later release of spec (R10/R11)
http://www.qtc.jp/3GPP/3gpp_rel10.html
(2) Check the REL of the IE
Look up “Pre-redirection info” in “10.2.39 RRC CONNECTION REQUEST”, you will see it was defined in REL 8
(3) Download a later version of 25.331 REL 8 . Here I use 8.17.0 for example
http://www.qtc.jp/3GPP/3gpp_rel8.html
(4) Search “Change history” for the keywords. You might use exactly “Pre-Redirection” to search first.
(5) The result turns out that no exactly the same keyword as “Pre-Redirection” in the Change History
(6) Try other related keywords. For this case, you will find useful info by searching “Redirection”.
* This might not be very intuitive for some cases. But there should always be some way for the target. For example, you can minimize the range by checking which version got the change and go to review the change history line by line.
RP-41 RP-080694 3404 1 UE Capabilities and redirection (UTRA-LTE) 8.3.1 8.4.0
(7) When you find the change history which might contain the topic you want to explore, search the RP number in Google. For this case, search “RP-08069”.
(8) You should find below page. And download “RP-080694.zip”
http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/tsg_ran/tsg_ran/TSGR_41/docs/
(9) You will see below info in the “Summary of Change” section in “25331_CR3404R1_(Rel-8)_R2-084694.doc”
‘pre-redirection information’ is included in the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message; this provides an indication to the network of whether the UE supports E-UTRA or not; the network shall not redirect the UE to E-UTRAN unless this information is provided in the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST. A separate indication is provided for E-UTRA FDD and E-UTRA TDD.
