scope:

This document specifies the performance measurements for 5G networks including network slicing. Performance measurements for NG-RAN are defined in this document (clause 5.1), and some L2 measurement definitions are inherited from TS 38.314 [29]. The performance measurements for 5GC are all defined in this document (clause 5.2 to 5.6). Related KPIs are defined to those measurements are defined in TS 28.554 [8].

The performance measurements for NG-RAN applies also to NR option 3 in many cases, but not to the RRC connection related measurements which are handled by E-UTRAN for NR option 3 (those are measured according to TS 32.425 [9] and related KPIs in TS 32.451 [10]).

The performance measurements are defined based on the measurement template as described in TS 32.404 [3].
