PS Domain
PDCP contains compression methods, which are needed to get
better spectral efficiency over radio interface.
IP Packet header compression. Eg: 40 bytes for IPv4 and at least
60 bytes for IPv6. (RFC 2507)
Transfer of user data
Protocol Interworking
architecture
Transport
: Carry Signaling and User data.
Radio N/W : Establish, maintain and Release RB.
System: Create Communication with Core network.
