`
`The contents of the present document are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formal
`TSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of the present document, it will be re-released by the TSG with an
`identifying change of release date and an increase in Version number as follows:
`
`Version x.y.z
`
`where:

`x
`
`the first digit:
`
`1
`
`presented to TSG for information;
`
`2 presented to TSG for approval;
`
`3
`
`or greater indicates TSG approved document under change control.
`
`y the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections,
`updates, etc.
`
`2
`
`the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the document.

`
`Scope
`
`The present document provides an overview and overall description of the E-UTRAN radio interface protocol
`architecture. Details of the radio interface protocols will be specified in companion specifications of the 36 series.
