— The EN-DC bearers for NR capable UEs have
LTE RLC LTE RLC NR RLC their user plane to Core Network from gNB

gNodeB for EN-DC bearers
LTE RLCLTE MAC NR MAC

Flexible Counters Concept
— Flexible counters are used to ensure that each operator can get KPIs differentiated for a configurable
set of UEs or bearers. Available in eNB since L17.A.
— The Flexible counters all have prefix “pmFlex” and are visible in MOM and PM jobs
— PmFlexCounterFilter MO is used to configure filter parameters for the Flexible counters.
— In the ROP file you will see several instances of each Flexible counter; one for each filter combination

Flexible Counters for NR NSA; used in eNodeB
— A new filter parameter ENDC is defined for NR NSA, with
three (minimum) levels:
— 0 = Counter stepped if the UE is capable of EN-DC
— 1 = Counter stepped if the UE’s EN-DC capability matches the
eNodeB configuration (some LTE + NR frequency band
combination supported by both cell and UE)
— 2 = Counter stepped if the UE has user plane through gNodeB,
ie NR leg setup

— If selecting filter level 0, all UEs covered by level 1 and 2 are


covered as well
— If selecting filter level 1, all UEs covered by level 2 are
covered as well
— Filtering with level 0 can be of interest in the whole LTE
network, but level 1 and 2 are only applicable in EN-DC
configured eNodeBs

Flexible Counters for EN-DC
— Three levels of filtering are available for the EN-DC
EPC
— The included levels are set by the parameter endcFilterMin
— For example, if this parameter is set to 1, then the counter is stepped if the EN-DC
state is either ENDC_NR_MATCHED or ENDC_NR_ACTIVE

Non-Standalone Accessibility Overview

In NR NSA scenario (with 5G coverage): S1-C
— RRC establishment and signalling are performed in 4G network through the S1-U
1
anchor cell in eNB
— RAB is established in both, first in 4G (Initial E-RAB Establishment) and then in
DRB
NR cells (EN-DC Setup) LTE NR
SRB

Accessibility KPI (session setup success rate) can be described as a


combination of different network access procedures: UE
— Control plane (RRC & S1 Signaling)
— User plane (RAB) establishment processes
2
EPC
So the Accessibility KPIs: S1-C S1-U
— Initial E-RAB Establishment Success Rate in LTE can be seen as main X2-C
Accessibility KPI also for NR NSA
X2-U
— EN-DC Setup Success Rate can be seen as a secondary Accessibility KPI for
NR NSA. DRB
