SRB (Signaling Radio Bearer)
- For carrying signaling message the type of bearer that required is know as SRB (Signaling Radio Bearer).
- The SRBs are radio bearers that are used for the transmission of RRC and NAS messages.
- There are four different type of SRB in NR as per TS38.331.

- SRB0: This SRB is for RRC messages using the Common Control Channel (CCCH) logical channel.
- SRB1: This SRB is for RRC messages (which may include a piggybacked NAS message) as well as for NAS messages prior to the establishment of SRB2, all using DCCH logical channel.
- SRB2: This SRB is for NAS messages, all using DCCH logical channel. SRB2 has a lower-priority than SRB1 and is always configured by the network after security activation.
- SRB3: This SRB is for specific RRC messages when UE is in EN-DC, all using DCCH logical channel.
- SRB3 can be setup at the request of the SG Secondary Node.
- SRB3 is used for signaling procedures which are time sensitive with respect to the gNode B, e.g. mobility procedures.
- SRB3 supports a limited number of signaling messages, i.e. RRC Reconfiguration,RRC Reconfiguration Complete and Measurement Report messages.
SRB 0 is only applicable to the Master Node
