5G Secondary Node Addition Overview

1. A UE connected to an LTE eNodeB measures 5G NR signals and sends a measurement report. 2. The eNodeB sends an addition request to the 5G gNodeB and configures the UE for dual connectivity through an RRC reconfiguration message. 3. The gNodeB and eNodeB exchange status and the UE connects to the 5G network, resuming data flow over both networks through periodic reporting between the nodes.
