E-UTRA (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access) - NR Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) of x bands (x=1, 2, 3, 4) LTE inter-band Carrier aggregation (CA) (x Down Link (DL) / 1 Up Link (UL)) and 2 NR bands NR inter-band CA (2 DL / 1 UL)
The present document is a technical report for E-UTRA-NR Dual connectivity (DC) band combinations of LTE xDL/1UL (x=1,2,3,4) + inter-band NR 2DL/1UL under Rel-16 time frame. The purpose is to gather the relevant background information and studies in order to address EN-DC band combinations of LTE xDL/1UL (x=1,2,3,4) + inter-band NR 2DL/1UL in Rel-16 as shown in Table 1-1.
