Extended Service Request procedure

The Extended Service Request and Service Request are same procedure just used for different purposes.
To make it simple, the below are color-coded. The cases when the Extended Service Request are triggered are marked light blue, the cases in black trigger Service Request procedure.

 Service Request triggers

a)    the UE in EMM-IDLE mode receives a paging request with CN domain indicator set to "PS" from the network;
b)    the UE, in EMM-IDLE mode, has pending user data to be sent;
c)    the UE, in EMM-IDLE mode, has uplink signalling pending;
d)    the UE in EMM-IDLE or EMM-CONNECTED mode is configured to use CS fallback and has a mobile originating CS fallback request from the upper layer;
e)    the UE in EMM-IDLE mode is configured to use CS fallback and receives a paging request with CN domain indicator set to "CS", or the UE in EMM-CONNECTED mode is configured to use CS fallback and receives a CS SERVICE NOTIFICATION message;
f)    the UE in EMM-IDLE or EMM-CONNECTED mode is configured to use 1xCS fallback and has a mobile originating 1xCS fallback request from the upper layer;
g)    the UE in EMM-CONNECTED mode is configured to use 1xCS fallback and accepts cdma2000® signalling messages containing a 1xCS paging request received over E-UTRAN;
h)    the UE, in EMM-IDLE mode, has uplink cdma2000® signalling pending to be transmitted over E-UTRAN;
i)    the UE, in EMM-IDLE or EMM-CONNECTED mode, is configured to use 1xCS fallback, accepts cdma2000® signalling messages containing a 1xCS paging request received over cdma2000®  1xRTT, and the network supports dual Rx CSFB or provide CS fallback registration parameters; or
j)    the UE, in EMM-IDLE or EMM-CONNECTED mode, has uplink cdma2000® signalling pending to be transmitted over cdma2000® 1xRTT, and the network supports dual Rx CSFB or provide CS fallback registration parameters.

LTE EPS mobility management timers - EMM timers

Lately many times I had to reach towards the EPS Mobility Management (EMM) timers, because it took me some time to google them here you go. Hope any one will find them as useful I did. 
In the two tables you can easily find the times name it's default or suggested value, what is triggering it and what happens in case it will finally expire.

EPS Mobility Management (EMM) and Connection Management (ECM) states

The EPS Mobility Management (EMM) states describe the Mobility Management states that result from the mobility management procedures e.g. Attach and Tracking Area Update procedures.
There are two EMM states described in Specs:
  • EMM-DEREGISTERED
  • EMM-REGISTERED

The EPS Connection Management (ECM) states describe the signalling connectivity between the UE and the EPC.
There are two ECM states described in Specs:
  • ECM-IDLE
  • ECM-CONNECTED

In general, the ECM and EMM states are independent of each other. Transition from EMM-REGISTERED to EMM-DEREGISTERED can occur regardless of the ECM state, e.g. by explicit detach signalling in ECM-CONNECTED or by implicit detach locally in the MME during ECM-IDLE. However there are some relations, e.g. to transition from EMM-DEREGISTERED to EMM-REGISTERED the UE has to be in the ECM-CONNECTED state.
