User plane
The figure below shows the protocol stack for the user-plane, where PDCP, RLC and MAC sublayers (terminated in eNB on the network side) perform the functions listed for the user plane, e.g. header compression, ciphering, scheduling, ARQ and HARQ;
Control plane
The figure below shows the protocol stack for the control-plane, where:
-
- PDCP sublayer (terminated in eNB on the network side) performs the functions like ciphering and integrity protection.
-
- RLC and MAC sublayers (terminated in eNB on the network side) perform the same functions as for the user
plane.
-
- RRC (terminated in eNB on the network side) performs the functions listed below:
-
- Broadcast;
-
- Paging;
-
- RRC connection management;
-
- RB control;
-
- Mobility functions;
-
- UE measurement reporting and control.
-
- Broadcast;
-
- NAS control protocol (terminated in MME on the network side) performs among other things:
-
- EPS bearer management;
-
- Authentication;
-
- ECM-IDLE mobility handling;
-
- Paging origination in ECM-IDLE;
-
- Security control.
