name: DU
full_form: Distributed Unit
context: the DU may transmit; - "MT: Rx" means that the MT should be able to receive (if there is anything to receive); - "DU: Rx" means that the DU may schedule uplink transmissions from child nodes or UEs; - "MT: Tx/Rx" means that the MT should transmit if scheduled and should be able to receive, but not simultaneously; - "DU: Tx/Rx" means that the DU may transmit and may schedule uplink transmission from child nodes and UEs, but not simultaneously; - "IA" means that the DU resource is explicitly or implicitly indicated as available; - "INA" means that the DU resource is explicitly or implicitly indicated as not available; - "MT: NULL" means that the MT does not transmit and does not have to be able to receive; - "DU: NULL" means that the DU does not transmit and does not schedule uplink transmission from child nodes and UEs. Table 7.3.3-1 applies in case of TDM operation, where there can be no simultaneous transmission in the DU and the MT, nor any simultaneous reception in the DU and the
description: The Distributed Unit (DU) is a network function responsible for managing radio resources and coordinating transmissions with other nodes, such as the Master Transport Node (MT), in a 5G network. It plays a crucial role in scheduling uplink transmissions from child nodes or User Equipment (UEs) and ensuring efficient use of radio resources.
explanation: The DU is classified as a Network Function based on its role in managing radio resources, coordinating transmissions with other nodes, and scheduling uplink transmissions, as described in the context from 3GPP TS 38.874.
