RRC messages are transferred by the lower layers through SRBs, which specify the characteristics of the logical, transport and physical channels.
SRB#0 : when establishing a RRC connection
1. uses CCCH logical channel
2. uses the RACH transport channel in the uplink
3. uses the FACH transport channel in the downlink
SRB#1 and SRB#2:
dedicated message generated at RRC layer through DCCH.
SRB#1 uses unacknowledged mode and SRB#2 acknowledged mode
SRB#3 and SRB#4:
dedicated messages from NAS layer through DCCH with acknowledged mode
SRB#3 with high priority, SRB#4 with low priority
Additional SRBs up to 32 can be used for messages with transparent mode (e.g., through DCCH, PCCH or BCCH).
