Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments of the present invention provide a dual-connectivity (dc) establishment method and device. the first dc architecture includes a master node (mn) and a secondary node (sn), wherein the sn includes a central unit (cu) and a distributed unit (du); and, the cu includes a control plane functional entity (cp) and a user plane functional entity (up). the method includes steps of: receiving, by an sn-cp, a first sn setup request message transmitted by an mn; transmitting a first resource setup request message to an sn-up according to the first sn setup request message, and receiving a first resource setup response message transmitted by the sn-up; and, transmitting, by the sn-cp, a first bearer setup request message to an sn-du, and receiving a first bearer setup response message transmitted by the sn-du.
