9.11.3.95 RAN timing synchronization

Taught in 4. Inside TS 24.501, the document at the centre (CT1 — the group that writes what your phone says, overview).

The purpose of the RAN timing synchronization IE is to provide information related to the RAN timing synchronization.

The RAN timing synchronization information element is coded as shown in figure 9.11.3.95.1 and table 9.11.3.95.1.

The RAN timing synchronization is a type 4 information element with a length of 3 octets.
