context: the MN about user data inactivity for SN terminated bearers. 2. The MN decides to send the UE to suspended RRC connection. 3/4. The MN triggers the MN initiated SN Modification procedure, requesting the SN to suspend lower layers. 5. The UE is sent to suspended RRC connection. 6-7. After a period of suspended RRC connection, the MN receives activity notification from the SN. 8. The MN decides whether to reactivate the SN terminated bearers. If (e.g. due to UE mobility), the MN decides not to reactivate the SN terminated bearers, it initiates the MN initiated SN release procedure, rather than the MN initiated SN modification procedure in steps 9/10. If the MN decides to return the UE to RRC_CONNECTED, the network triggered state transition from suspended RRC connection to RRC_CONNECTED commences. 9/10. The MN triggers the MN initiated SN Modification procedure to resume the SCG lower layers. If the SCG configuration needs to be updated, the SN provides the configuration data within an
description: The SMTC (SS/PBCH block Measurement Timing Configuration) is a parameter used in the context of NR-DC (New Radio-Dual Connectivity) and other multi-radio access technology (MR-DC) options. It refers to the configuration of measurement timing for SS/PBCH blocks, which are crucial for the UE to find the SSB (Synchronization Signal Block) in the target PSCell during PSCell addition or change. The SMTC can be provided by both the Master Node (MN) and the Secondary Node (SN), and it is up to the UE implementation to decide which one to use.
explanation: The context describes SMTC as a configurable setting used for measurement timing in multi-radio access technologies. It directly influences the UE's ability to locate the SSB, highlighting its role as a parameter that controls system behavior.
