5G RLC Mastery โ€“ Complete TS 38.322 with Hands-On Log Analysis

by Rajesh Kumar ยท in General ยท Last updated: August 8, 2026
Course Description
Master the Radio Link Control (RLC) layer of the 5G NR Layer-2 Protocol Stack through this comprehensive, specification-driven training based entirely on 3GPP TS 38.322. This course provides an in-depth understanding of every procedure, clause, and protocol behavior defined in the RLC specification, enabling you to confidently work on 5G protocol development, software implementation, protocol testing, system integration, interoperability validation, and commercial network troubleshooting. The specification defines the architecture, services, data transfer procedures, segmentation, reassembly, retransmission, polling, status reporting, duplicate detection, re-establishment, and protocol data unit (PDU) formats for the RLC layer. (3gpp.org)
Unlike theoretical courses, this program combines complete 3GPP TS 38.322 coverage, protocol flow diagrams, real-world implementation concepts, Wireshark packet analysis, and hands-on Amarisoft Test Bed log analysis to help you understand how the RLC layer behaves in commercial 5G networks.

After Completing This Course
You will be able to:


Explain every procedure defined in 3GPP TS 38.322.
Understand the complete 5G NR RLC architecture.
Develop and debug TM, UM, and AM RLC entities.
Decode and analyze RLC PDUs.
Implement segmentation, concatenation, and reassembly procedures.
Understand Sliding Window and ARQ mechanisms.
Analyze Polling, STATUS PDUs, and ACK/NACK processing.
Troubleshoot retransmissions, duplicate detection, and timer-related issues.
Perform Amarisoft Test Bed log analysis.
Validate protocol behavior using Wireshark PCAPs.
Correlate PDCP, RLC, MAC, RRC, and NGAP procedures for complete Layer-2 troubleshooting.
Apply specification knowledge in protocol development, software implementation, protocol testing, system integration, and commercial 5G network optimization.
Why Enroll in This Course?
Most RLC training explains only the basic concepts or selected procedures. This course is designed to provide a complete mastery of 3GPP TS 38.322, covering every major topic and clause with practical implementation examples. Through Amarisoft Test Bed log analysis, Wireshark packet validation, protocol flow diagrams, and real-world troubleshooting scenarios, you will gain the skills required to analyze, implement, validate, and debug the 5G NR Radio Link Control (RLC) layer in commercial telecom environments.
Whether you are a Protocol Stack Developer, Protocol Test Engineer, System Integrator, or preparing for a career in 5G RAN software development, this course equips you with the practical expertise needed to work confidently on one of the most critical layers of the 5G NR protocol stack.
