GBR bearers
Non-GBR bearers
Each bearer has an associated QoS Class Identifier (QCI), and an Allocation

QCI is characterized by priority, packet delay budget and acceptable packet loss rate

eNB UE S1AP ID
An Old eNB UE X2AP ID shall be allocated so as to uniquely identify the UE over the X2
interface within a source eNB
A eNB UE S1AP ID shall be allocated so as to uniquely identify the UE over the S1 interface
within an eNB
MME UE S1AP ID
An EPS bearer identity uniquely identifies an EPS bearer for one UE accessing via E-UTRAN
The EPS Bearer Identity is allocated by the MME
There is one to one mapping between EPS RB and EPS Bearer, and the mapping between
EPS RB Identity and EPS Bearer Identity is made by E-UTRAN
An New eNB UE X2AP ID shall be allocated so as to uniquely identify the UE over the X2
interface within a target eNB
C-RNTI: The C-RNTI provides a unique UE identification at the cell level identifying
RRC Connection and used for scheduling

"Signalling Radio Bearers" (SRBs) are defined as Radio Bearers (RB) that are
used only for the transmission of RRC and NAS messages. the following
SRB1 is for RRC messages as well as for NAS messages prior to the
SRB2 is for NAS messages, using DCCH logical channel. SRB2 has a lowerpriority than SRB1 and is always configured by E-UTRAN after security
activation

Purpose:
To release the logical S1-AP signalling connection (over S1-MME) and all S1
bearers (in S1-U) for a UE. The procedure will move the UE from ECMCONNECTED to ECM-IDLE in both the UE and MME, and all UE related context
information is deleted in the eNodeB
