ENDC & 5G Attach

The document describes the architecture and concepts for EN-DC (E-UTRA-NR Dual Connectivity) networks. It shows the EN-DC architecture with a 5G gNB connected to an LTE eNB and centralized units. It explains the different bearer concepts for EN-DC including MCG, SCG, and split bearers. The document also provides step-by-step procedures for adding a new gNB to an existing EN-DC connection and modifying bearers as part of the addition process.
