NBAP is subdivided into Common and Dedicated NBAP (C-NBAP and D-NBAP), where Common NBAP controls overall Node B functionality, and Dedicated NBAP controls radio links to specific user equipment. NBAP forms part of the Iub interface. NBAP handles two kind of Procedures for different NBAP functionalities

  • Common Procedures
    • for Managing Logical O & M Functions
    • for Controlling BCCH Broadcast
    • for creating new Node B Communication Context
  • Dedicated Procedures
