Hi All.

If we are making a call in EN-DC mode, on conversation time in mobile on the network bars, UE shows 5G or 4G?

5G.

Because upper layer indication is true in SIB2.

Please check this post: 5G icon displayed, but no 5G coverage area - #9 by Fathy_Farouk

Thanks!

This point is very good: :point_down:

Right.

Now in a Drive Test, if there is coverage of 5G it shows 5G icon or if no coverage it shows 4G icon.

UE is also connected to different PCI in both the pictures.

Are both the PCIs from the same cell?
