Therefore, the "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" that appears throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, these specific features, structures or characteristics can be combined in one or more embodiments in any suitable manner.

[0073] In various embodiments of the present application, it should be understood that the size of the serial numbers of the following processes does not mean the order of execution, and the execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.

[0074] In addition, the terms "system" and "network" in this document are often used interchangeably herein.

[0075] In the embodiments provided in this application, it should be understood that "B corresponding to A" means that B is associated with A, and B can be determined according to A. However, it should also be understood that determining B according to A does not mean determining B only according to A, and B can also be determined according to A and / or other information.

[0076] Next, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the wireless bearer configuration method, apparatus, terminal, base station, and readable storage medium of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail.

[0077] The embodiments of this application provide a wireless bearer configuration method, which is applied to a terminal. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes:

[0078] Step 101, obtain a first message sent by a base station, where the first message includes at least one of a wireless bearer type, a wireless bearer version number, and first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate whether to allow the establishment of a wireless bearer of the wireless bearer type. Here, the first message is a message related to the wireless bearer that meets the terminal's requirements and is supported by the base station; specifically, for example, the general configuration of the wireless bearer that meets the terminal's requirements and is supported by the base station; that is to say, the wireless bearer type in the obtained first message is the wireless bearer type that meets the terminal's requirements and is supported by the base station. In other words, the wireless bearer type in the obtained first message is the wireless bearer type supported by the base station among the wireless bearer types negotiated in advance by the terminal with a network-side device (base station or Policy Control Function (PCF) entity).

[0079] In the wireless bearer configuration method of the embodiments of this application, the terminal obtains a first message sent by the base station, where the first message includes at least one of a wireless bearer type, a wireless bearer version number, and first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate whether to allow the establishment of a wireless bearer of the wireless bearer type. In this way, the terminal can subsequently configure the wireless bearer based on this first message to meet the agile response requirements of the service function by invoking the established wireless bearer, and solve problems such as complex service calls that may be caused by splitting the user plane function into smaller-granularity services according to the traditional microservice design concept, and problems affecting the air interface transmission efficiency.

[0080] Here, it should be noted that, firstly, the radio bearer in the embodiments of the present application defines the processing method of user plane data packets, that is, different services / functions are established and invoked in the user plane in the form of radio bearers; secondly, the functions and / or services in the radio bearer can be invisible to the standard and can be completed by relying on the implementation of the manufacturer. In this way, the radio bearer has less impact on the existing processes and is easier to implement and standardize. The reasons are as follows: firstly, it is more conducive to the application of microservice technology. The inside of the radio bearer can be implemented in the form of a traditional protocol stack or based on cloud native technology; secondly, it is more conducive to the introduction of new capabilities. The new capabilities are invoked in the form of radio bearers, reducing the impact on other functions; thirdly, it is more conducive to the joint optimization of software and hardware. The radio bearer can be implemented through customized hardware. Thirdly, the radio bearer can evolve independently and update versions, improving the flexibility of user plane functions. Therefore, the radio bearer configuration method in the embodiments of the present application realizes the establishment of a radio bearer with less impact on the existing processes, and then realizes the services / functions of the user plane by invoking the corresponding radio bearers, solving the problems such as complex service invocation that may be caused by splitting the user plane functions into services with smaller granularity according to the traditional microservice design concept and affecting the air interface transmission efficiency. Among them, the comparison between the radio bearer in the embodiments of the present application and the prior art is as Figure 7 shown.

[0081] Here, the information carried in the first message is exemplified:

[0082] The types of radio bearers are, for example: text type, voice type, multimedia type, eMBB type, Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) type, massive Machine Type of Communication (mMTC) type, Artificial Intelligence (AI) type, Extended Reality (XR) type, etc.;

[0083] Radio bearer version number: For the same type of radio bearer, the terminal may be configured with different versions, and the differences lie in different applicable frequencies, Quality of Service (QoS) guarantee capabilities, requirements for UE capabilities, etc.;

[0084] The first indication information is used to indicate whether establishment is allowed; among them, when the load of a certain type of radio bearer on the base station side is saturated (for example, the service instance capacity of the radio bearer is saturated), the base station does not allow the terminal to establish this type of radio bearer anymore.

[0085] Further, as an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0086] Receiving a second message broadcast by a base station, where the second message includes mapping information of a third message and a radio bearer; here, for example, the second message is of System Information Block (SIB) type 1, that is, the second message is SIB1; the third message is a System Information (SI) message; in addition, the mapping information of the third message and the radio bearer is, for example, the correspondence between the SI message and the radio bearer type;

[0087] Determining a target third message including the first message according to the mapping information; here, the newly defined SIB n for the radio bearer in the target third message is the first message, or in other words, the SIB n in the target third message carries the first message. Of course, the first message can also be carried by the target field / indicator field of the existing SIB in the target third message; taking the newly defined SIB n carrying the first message as an example, the mapping information is specifically, for example:

[0088] Table 1 SI Message and Radio Bearer Mapping Relationship Table

[0089] SI message Radio bearer type SIB n in SI 1 Text radio bearer SIB n in SI 2 Voice radio bearer SIB n in SI 4 eMBB radio bearer

[0090] Among them, "eMBB" in Table 1 is Enhanced Mobile Broadband.

[0091] As a specific implementation, step 101 includes:

[0092] When it is determined that the third message broadcast by the base station includes the target third message according to the scheduling information in the second message, at the scheduling moment of the target third message, reading the first message in the target third message.

[0093] Here, it should be noted that this step can specifically be: after the terminal determines the target third message corresponding to the radio bearer type it needs based on the mapping information, it judges whether the scheduling information of the second message broadcast by the base station includes the scheduling moment of the target third message (that is, judges whether the target SI message is included in the SI message currently broadcast periodically by the base station). If it includes, the scheduling moment of the target third message is determined; then, at this scheduling moment, the target third message is read to obtain the first message in the third target message.

[0094] As another optional implementation, step 101 includes:

[0095] In the case where it is determined according to the scheduling information in the second message that the third message broadcast by the base station does not include the target third message (that is, the scheduling time of the target third message is not included in the scheduling information of the second message), a Radio Resource Control (RRC) establishment request is sent to the base station, where the RRC establishment request carries the radio bearer type required by the terminal; that is, when the first message related to the radio bearer that the terminal wants to obtain is not carried in the SI message broadcast by the base station, the terminal can request the first message related to the radio bearer that the terminal wants to obtain from the base station based on the RRC establishment request.

[0096] Receive the first RRC establishment message fed back by the base station; where the first message is carried in the first RRC establishment message; here, the first message is the first message related to the radio bearer type carried in the RRC establishment request.

[0097] Simply put, the above two optional implementation methods are as follows: After receiving the SIB1 (second message) broadcast by the base station, the terminal obtains the mapping information, and based on the mapping information, determines whether there is a first message of the radio bearer that the terminal wants to obtain in the SI message (third message) that the base station is periodically broadcasting. If so, read SIB n at the corresponding SI message scheduling time to obtain the first message of the radio bearer that the terminal wants to obtain. If not, initiate an RRC establishment request (the request carries the radio bearer type that the terminal wants to obtain) to the base station to obtain the first message of the radio bearer that the terminal wants to obtain through the RRC establishment message fed back by the base station.

[0098] Further, as an optional implementation method, after sending the radio resource control RRC establishment request to the base station, the method further includes:

[0099] Receive the second RRC establishment message fed back by the base station, where the second RRC establishment message is used to indicate the rejection of the RRC establishment. Here, it should be noted that when the base station determines that it does not support the radio bearer type that the terminal wants to obtain, the base station feeds back the second RRC establishment message indicating the rejection of the RRC establishment to the terminal.

[0100] As an optional implementation method, the second RRC establishment message carries the neighbor cell information of the radio bearer type that supports the terminal's requirements. In this way, the terminal can obtain the neighbor cell information that can support the radio bearer type that the terminal wants to obtain based on the second RRC establishment message, so as to communicate with the base station corresponding to the neighbor cell to obtain the first message of the radio bearer that the terminal wants to obtain and complete the establishment of the radio bearer.

[0101] Further, as an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0102] When a service arrives, according to the first message, send an RRC reconfiguration request to the base station, where the RRC reconfiguration request includes the radio bearer type and radio bearer version number of the radio bearer requested to be established by the terminal; here, the radio bearer requested to be established by the terminal can be one or more; among them, the radio bearer type and radio bearer version number carried in the RRC reconfiguration request are the radio bearer type and radio bearer version number of the radio bearer allowed to be established indicated by the first indication information in the first message.

[0103] Receive the RRC reconfiguration message feedback by the base station, where the RRC reconfiguration message includes the radio bearer configuration information dedicated to the terminal. Based on the radio bearer configuration information dedicated to the terminal, the terminal can establish the corresponding radio bearer, so as to directly call the established radio bearer subsequently and meet the agile response requirement of the service service function. It solves the problems that splitting the user plane function into services with smaller granularity according to the traditional microservice design concept may cause complex service calls and other problems, and affect the air interface transmission efficiency.

[0104] Specifically, the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0105] The second indication information, used to indicate the established radio bearer; for example, indicating the established radio bearer list, where the radio bearer list includes the radio bearer ID and radio bearer type of each radio bearer, etc.

[0106] The mapping relationship between the radio bearer and the Media Access Control (MAC) entity;

[0107] The radio bearer scheduling priority;

[0108] The relevant configuration of radio resource management.

[0109] As an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0110] Send a radio bearer negotiation request to the network device; where the network device includes a base station or a Policy Control Function (PCF) entity;

[0111] Receive the negotiation response feedback by the network device; where the negotiation response includes information related to the radio bearer, and the information related to the radio bearer includes at least one of a radio bearer type, a radio bearer version number, a service supported by the radio bearer, a radio bearer service call order, and a service type.

[0112] Here, it should be noted that when the network device is a base station, the terminal negotiates radio bearers with the base station through RRC. When the network device is a PCF entity, the terminal negotiates radio bearers with the base station through non-access stratum (NAS) messages. Among them, the negotiation response feedback by the base station includes, for example, the radio bearer types supported by the base station, the radio bearer version numbers, and may also include the service types associated with the radio bearers; the negotiation response feedback by the PCF entity includes, for example, the radio bearer types, the services supported by the radio bearers, the service call order, the radio bearer version numbers, and may also include the service types associated with the radio bearers.

[0113] An embodiment of this application also provides a radio bearer configuration method, which is applied to a base station, as Figure 2 shown, and includes:

[0114] Step 201, send a first message, where the first message includes at least one of a radio bearer type, a radio bearer version number, and a first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate whether to allow the establishment of a radio bearer of the radio bearer type.

[0115] For example, first, for the radio bearer type: it may include text type, voice type, multimedia type, eMBB type, URLLC type, mMTC type, AI type, XR type, etc.; second, for the radio bearer version number: for the same type of radio bearer, the terminal may be configured with different versions, and the differences lie in different applicable frequencies of the radio bearer, QoS guarantee capabilities, requirements for UE capabilities, etc.; third, for the first indication information: when the load of a certain type of radio bearer on the base station side is saturated (for example, the service instance capacity of the radio bearer is saturated), the base station does not allow the terminal to establish a radio bearer of this type again.

[0116] In the embodiment of this application, the base station sends a first message, where the first message includes at least one of a radio bearer type, a radio bearer version number, and a first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate whether to allow the establishment of a radio bearer of the radio bearer type. In this way, the terminal can receive this first message, so that the terminal can subsequently configure the radio bearer based on this first message to achieve the agile response requirement of the service service function by invoking the established radio bearer, and solve the problems such as complex service calls that may be caused by splitting the user plane function into smaller-grained services according to the traditional microservice design concept and affecting the air interface transmission efficiency.

[0117] Further, as an optional implementation manner, the method further includes:

[0118] Broadcast a second message, where the second message includes mapping information between a third message and a radio bearer. For example, the second message is SIB1, and the third message is an SI message. That is to say, in the embodiments of the present application, this mapping information can be added to the existing SIB1.

[0119] Here, an explanation is given for this mapping information: This mapping information can be a mapping relationship table between the third message (SI message) and the radio bearer (such as the radio bearer type). Specifically, the content of this mapping relationship table is as shown in Table 1 above.

[0120] Further, as an optional implementation manner, the method further includes:

[0121] Broadcast a third message; wherein, the third message carries a first message related to the radio bearer supported by the base station. Specifically, taking the third message as an SI message as an example, this first message can be a newly defined SIB n for the radio bearer in the SI message.

[0122] Further, as an optional implementation manner, the method further includes:

[0123] Receive an RRC establishment request sent by a terminal, where the RRC establishment request carries the radio bearer type required by the terminal; here, when the terminal determines according to the scheduling information in the second message that the third message periodically broadcast by the base station does not include a target third message carrying the radio bearer that the terminal needs to obtain, the terminal sends this RRC establishment request to the base station;

[0124] In the case that the base station supports the radio bearer type required by the terminal, feedback a first RRC establishment message to the terminal; wherein, the first RRC establishment message carries the first message (related to the radio bearer required by the terminal and supported by the base station);

[0125] In the case that the base station does not support the radio bearer type required by the terminal, feedback a second RRC establishment message to the terminal, where the second RRC establishment message is used to indicate rejection of the RRC establishment.

[0126] That is to say, after receiving the RRC establishment request, the base station can determine whether the radio bearer type carried in the RRC establishment request is a radio bearer type supported by itself. If so, it feedbacks a first RRC establishment message carrying the first message (related to the radio bearer type carried in the RRC establishment request) to the terminal. If not, it feedbacks a second RRC establishment message indicating rejection of the RRC establishment to the terminal.

[0127] Further, as an optional implementation, the second RRC establishment message carries neighbor cell information of the radio bearer type that supports the terminal's requirements. The terminal can obtain, based on this second RRC establishment message, neighbor cell information of the radio bearer type that can support the radio bearer type the terminal wants to obtain, so as to communicate with the base station corresponding to this neighbor cell to obtain the first message of the radio bearer the terminal wants to obtain, and complete the establishment of the radio bearer.

[0128] As an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0129] Receiving an RRC reconfiguration request sent by a terminal, where the RRC reconfiguration request includes the radio bearer type and the radio bearer version number of the radio bearer that the terminal requests to establish; here, on the one hand, the terminal sends this RRC reconfiguration request to the base station when a service arrives, and on the other hand, the radio bearer type and the radio bearer version number of the radio bearer carried in this RRC reconfiguration request are the type and version number of the radio bearer allowed to be established indicated by the first indication information in the first message;

[0130] In response to the RRC reconfiguration request, sending an RRC reconfiguration message to the terminal, where the RRC reconfiguration message includes the radio bearer configuration information dedicated to the terminal; based on this radio bearer configuration information dedicated to the terminal, the terminal can establish a corresponding radio bearer, so as to directly call the established radio bearer subsequently to meet the agile response requirement of the service service function. Among them, the radio bearer configuration information dedicated to the terminal includes at least one of the following:

[0131] Second indication information, used to indicate the established radio bearer; for example, indicating a list of established radio bearers, where the radio bearer list includes the radio bearer ID and the radio bearer type of each radio bearer, etc.;

[0132] The mapping relationship between the radio bearer and the MAC entity;

[0133] The scheduling priority of the radio bearer;

[0134] The relevant configuration of radio resource management.

[0135] As an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0136] Receiving a radio bearer negotiation request sent by a terminal; here, the terminal negotiates the radio bearer with the base station through RRC;

[0137] Feedback a negotiation response to the terminal; wherein, the negotiation response includes information related to a radio bearer, and the information related to the radio bearer includes at least one of a radio bearer type, a radio bearer version number, services supported by the radio bearer, a service call sequence, and a service type.

[0153] 4. The terminal receives the RRC establishment message sent by the base station, which includes the general configuration of the radio bearer requested by the terminal; here, if the base station judges that it supports the radio bearer type requested by the RRC, it issues the general configuration of the radio bearer requested by the terminal (the first message) in the RRC establishment message;

[0159] 2. The base station sends a radio bearer negotiation response, which includes at least the supported radio bearer types and radio bearer version numbers, and may also include the service types associated with the radio bearer.

[0160] Scenario 2: The negotiation process between the terminal and the core network element (such as PCF) is carried by NAS messages.

[0162] 2. The core network element (such as PCF) sends a radio bearer negotiation response, which includes at least the radio bearer types, the services supported by the radio bearer, the service invocation order, and the radio bearer version numbers, and may also include the service types associated with the radio bearer.

[0169] For SIB n in SI 2, the configured associated radio bearer type is AI-enhanced data transmission;

[0170] 3. The terminal reads system information SIB n; that is, the terminal reads the mapping relationship list between the SI message and the radio bearer type in SIB1, and reads SIB n at the corresponding SI message scheduling moment to obtain the data transmission radio bearer and the data transmission class configuration information enhanced by AI.

[0171] 4. The terminal sends an RRC reconfiguration request to the base station, including the information of supported radio bearers 1 and 2; that is, when there is traffic arriving at the terminal side, an RRC reconfiguration request is initiated, including the requested radio bearer information.
