5G NR NSA Log Analysis Workshop: Sub-6
5G non-standalone (NSA) mode leverages existing network infrastructure to provide a faster and more reliable network without replacing all the existing infrastructure. In this one-day course, you will look at the EN-DC setup procedures and discuss 5G system information, RACH procedures, DL and UL data operation, and EN-DC mobility and beam management.
