In 5G, they have introduced new RRC Stats called “RRC Inactive” to minimize latency as well as to reduce signalling load . Transitions from RRC Inactive to Connected is very quick as UE Context is stored at gNB and UE. NG signalling keep alive between gNB to AMF, GTP-U also remain alive between gNB to UPF.1 Tem 2020

There are three RRC states; RRC_IDLE, RRC_INACTIVE, and RRC_CONNECTED are defined for a 5G NR UE. While RRC_IDLE and RRC_CONNECTED states in NR are almost same as those of LTE, the RRC_INACTIVE states is newly introduced in 5G NR.

Summary. Radio resource control (RRC) is the highest layer in the control plane of the access stratum (AS) . It also transfers messages of the non-access stratum (NAS), which is located above the RRC layer.
