Abstract
This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for protocol stacks and bearer modeling for assisted Uu connectivity. A UE and a PN may each establish a first connection with an AN and, based on the first connections with the AN, establish a second connection with each other. Based on a bearer configuration, the UE may determine whether to route data to the PN via the first connection with the AN or directly to the PN via the second connection with the PN. Accordingly, the UE may transmit the data to at least one of the AN or the PN based on the determination of whether to route the data to the PN via the first connection with the AN or directly to the PN via the second connection with the PN.
