5G NR Architecture

5G NR architecture consists of: 1) NG-RAN which includes gNBs and ng-eNBs interconnected via the Xn interface and connected to the 5GC via NG interfaces. 2) 5GC which includes functions like AMF, SMF, UPF connected via control and user plane. 3) Reference points define the connections between network functions like AMF, UDM, PCF and between the access network and 5GC.

NG-RAN (next generation radio access technology network)

- a gNB, providing NR user plane and control plane protocol terminations towards the UE.
- an ng-eNB, providing E-UTRA user plane and control plane protocol terminations towards the UE.
- The gNBs and ng-eNBs are interconnected with each other by means of the Xn interface.
- The gNBs and ng-eNBs are also connected by means of the NG interfaces to the 5GC, more
specifically to the AMF (Access and Mobility Management Function) by means of the NG-C
interface and to the UPF (User Plane Function) by means of the NG-U interface.
