• Stand-Alone (SA): gNB connects to the 5G Core Network (5GC)

• Non-Stand-Alone (NSA): tight interoperation between gNBs and eNBs

− Connected to the same core network: either

fo n
in co
− EPC, the existing LTE core network (NSA within “4G RAN”); or
− 5GC, the 5G core network (NSA within NG-RAN)

− Dual Connectivity (DC) toward the terminal Example of Option 3:
− A Master Node (MN) and a Secondary Node (SN)
