3GPP TS 25.331 8.5.6 states that after receiving N313 consecutive "out of sync"
indications from layer, the UE shall start the T313 timer. Upon receiving N315
successive "in sync" indications from layer 1, the UE shall stop and reset the T313
timer. If T313 expires, a "Radio Link failure" has occurred, and the UE shall drop the
call.
N313 Successive Out-Of-Sync Reception Max
N313 specifies the maximum number of successive "out of sync" received from L1.
N313 can be set to one of the following integer values: 1, 2, 4, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200.

T308 specifies the time between the transmissions of RRC Connection Release
Complete message.
N308 RRC Conn Release Comp Max Retransmits
N308 specifies the maximum number of retransmissions of the RRC CONNECTION
RELEASE COMPLETE message.
T3212 Periodic Location Update Timer
T3212 specifies how often the UE will perform the periodic location update procedure.
It is signaled in SIB1.
When T3212 is set to zero, the UE will regard the timer to be infinite.
