name: IAB-DU
full_form: Integrated Access and Backhaul Distributed Unit
context: IAB-MT classification and IAB-DU classification will be defined separately. For IAB-DU the classification will be the same as NR BS classification in TS 38.104 [2] to support Wide Area IAB-DU, Medium Range IAB-DU and Local Area IAB-DU with the same deployment scenarios for each class as for BS. The same criteria and exactly the same parameter of NR BS classification, e,g, BS to UE minimum distance on the ground for BS without connector, IAB-DU to UE minimum coupling loss for BS with connector, will be applied for IAB-DU with modification as IAB-DU to UE minimum distance on the ground for IAB-DU type 2-O/1-O and IAB-DU minimum coupling loss depends on IAB-DU type 1-H. For IAB-MT multiple classes will be defined based on deployment scenario as well.
description: The Integrated Access and Backhaul Distributed Unit (IAB-DU) is a network component that integrates access and backhaul functions, enabling the efficient transmission of data between the core network and user equipment. It is classified based on its deployment scenarios, such as Wide Area IAB-DU, Medium Range IAB-DU, and Local Area IAB-DU.
explanation: IAB-DU is classified as a Network Function because it is a critical component within the network infrastructure, responsible for managing access and backhaul connections. The context highlights its role in supporting various deployment scenarios, similar to those of NR BS classification, which further justifies its classification as a Network Function.
