[0061] For ease of understanding, the following describes some aspects of the embodiments of this application:

[0062] I. Multi-Modality (MM) Services

[0063] Extended reality (XR) services often include multiple modal sub-services, such as video, haptic, and audio. Therefore, this service may be mapped to different Quality of Service (QoS) flows. However, there are some correlations between these QoS flows. For example, the relative latency between these QoS flows needs to be less than a certain threshold to ensure synchronization.

[0064] Currently, the core network can associate multiple QoS flows into a single MM service through a Multi-Modality Service Identifier (MMSID). However, latency and priority play a more important role in RAN-side scheduling and resource allocation.

[0065] For MM services, the process involves acquiring MM service information and RAN-side scheduling. This processing may include Logical Channel Prioritization (LCP) processing, Delay Status Report (DSR) reporting, and discarding based on priority and overdue information. LCP-related processing may include:

[0066] 1. The relative latency parameter between different QoS flows of an MM service can be between packets of two flows, or between two flows;

[0067] 2. When the relative priority of a QoS flow is lower than a certain threshold, the logical channel priority of the QoS flow is increased. In this way, the user equipment (UE) can be prioritized to send data with a fast delay through the adjustment of logical channel priority.

[0068] 3. Configure additional LCP priority. When a multimodal service that needs to be associated arrives, use the additional configured priority.

[0069] The object processing method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 2, which is a flowchart of an object processing method provided in an embodiment of this application. This method can be executed by a terminal, and as shown in Figure 2, it includes the following steps:

[0071] Step 201: The terminal executes the target operation, which includes at least one of the following:

[0072] If the relative delay between the first object and the second object is greater than or equal to a first threshold, a first operation is performed, the first operation including at least one of the following: performing a deletion operation on the target object or adjusting the transmission priority or LCP of the target object, and reporting the relative delay status;

[0073] If the third object does not meet the latency requirements, a second operation is performed, which includes deleting the third object, adjusting the transmission priority of the third object, or adjusting the LCP.

[0074] Wherein, the first object and the second object are two objects with an association relationship, the target object is the object with slower transmission between the first object and the second object, and the object includes a Quality of Service (QoS) flow, a data packet or a set of data packets.

[0075] In this embodiment, the first object and the second object can be any two objects that are associated. The first object and the second object are associated, for example, the first object and the second object are associated with the same Multi-Modality Service Identifier (MMSID), or the first object and the second object transmit data of one or more sub-services of the same multi-modality service.

[0076] The target object mentioned above refers to the slower-transmitting object among the first object and the second object; that is, the target object represents the slower-transmitting object among two objects with a relative latency greater than or equal to a first threshold. For example, in the case of a QoS flow, this can be achieved by comparing... To determine the slower-transmitting object between the first and second objects, for example, if This indicates that the second object is the object with slower transmission speed, meaning the target object is the second object; if The first object is a slower transmission object, and the target object is the first object. X represents the PBR of the first object, Y represents the PBR of the second object, x1 represents the transmission rate of the first object, and y1 represents the transmission rate of the second object. In the case of an object being a data packet or a data packet set, the slower transmission object among the first object and the second object can be determined according to the time when the first object and the second object are scheduled, for example, if the first object is scheduled earlier than the second object, the second object is a slower transmission object, and the target object is the second object; if the second object is scheduled earlier than the first object, the first object is a slower transmission object, and the target object is the first object.

[0077] The first threshold can include, but is not limited to, a relative delay budget (RDB) or a difference between the RDB and the remaining time threshold or a second threshold, and the second threshold can be less than the RDB.

[0078] It should be noted that in the case where the first threshold is the difference between the RDB and the remaining time threshold, the relative delay of the first object and the second object being greater than or equal to the first threshold can also be referred to as the remaining time of the RDB corresponding to the first object and the second object being less than or equal to the remaining time threshold. In addition, the remaining time of the RDB corresponding to the first object and the second object being less than or equal to the remaining time threshold can also be referred to as the first object and the second object not meeting the relative delay requirement. The relative delay of the first object and the second object being greater than or equal to the RDB can also be referred to as the first object and the second object not meeting the relative delay requirement.

[0079] For the remaining time of the RDB corresponding to the first object and the second object, for example, a relative delay timer can be started when the second object associated with the first object of the first LCH is scheduled, and the timing duration of the relative delay timer is equal to the RDB. The remaining time of the RDB corresponding to the first object and the second object can be the remaining time when the relative delay timer expires.

[0080] The relative delay state can include, but is not limited to, at least one of a first remaining time and a first cache size. The first remaining time can be determined according to a remaining time of an RDB corresponding to the target object, and / or the first cache size can be determined according to a data amount of the target object. For example, the first remaining time is a minimum value of a remaining time of an RDB corresponding to each of target objects in a first logical channel group (LCG), that is, a minimum value of a remaining time of an RDB corresponding to a target object with a slower transmission among two target objects with a relative delay greater than or equal to a first threshold in the first LCG, and / or the first cache size is a sum of data amounts of all target objects in the first LCG, that is, a sum of data amounts of target objects with a relative delay greater than or equal to the first threshold in the first LCG.

[0081] The first remaining time can be greater than 0, that is, the first remaining time is a minimum value of a remaining time greater than 0 of an RDB corresponding to each of target objects in an LCG.

[0082] The third object can be any object, and the third object not satisfying the delay requirement can include at least one of the third object not satisfying a relative delay requirement and the third object not satisfying a packet delay requirement. For example, the third object not satisfying the delay requirement can include, but is not limited to, any one of the following: a packet delay of the third object being greater than or equal to a packet delay budget (PDB), a deletion timer corresponding to the third object being overdue, a relative delay between the third object and a fourth object being greater than or equal to an RDB, and a relative delay timer corresponding to the third object being overdue. The fourth object can be any object different from the third object.

[0083] It should be noted that the third object can be the first object or the second object, or the third object can be an object different from the first object and the second object.

[0084] The embodiments of the present application are described below in the following cases:

[0085] Case one: the first threshold is RDB, that is, in the case that the relative delay of the first object and the second object is greater than or equal to RDB, the terminal can directly delete the object (that is, the target object) with slower transmission in the first object and the second object, or the terminal can decide whether to delete the target object or lower the transmission priority of the target object according to whether there is a data packet satisfying the relative delay requirement in the data packet in the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) buffer, for example, in the case that there is a data packet satisfying the relative delay requirement in the PDCP buffer, the target object can be deleted, in the case that there is no data packet satisfying the relative delay requirement in the PDCP buffer, the transmission priority of the target object can be lowered; or the terminal can directly lower the transmission priority of the target object; or the terminal can directly lower the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object.

[0086] Case two: the first threshold is the difference between RDB and the remaining time threshold or the second threshold, that is, in the case that the remaining time of RDB corresponding to the first object and the second object is less than or equal to the remaining time threshold, the terminal can raise the transmission priority of the target object; or the terminal can raise the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object; or the terminal can report the relative delay state to assist the network side device to schedule.

[0087] Case three: in the case that the third object does not satisfy the delay requirement, the terminal can directly delete the third object, or the terminal can decide whether to delete the third object or lower the transmission priority of the third object according to whether there is a data packet satisfying the delay requirement in the data packet in the PDCP buffer corresponding to the third object, for example, in the case that there is a data packet satisfying the delay requirement in the PDCP buffer, the third object can be deleted, in the case that there is no data packet satisfying the delay requirement in the PDCP buffer, the transmission priority of the third object can be lowered; or the terminal can directly lower the transmission priority of the third object; or the terminal can directly lower the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the third object.

[0088] It should be noted that in the case that the object is a QoS flow, the above deleting the target object or the third object can be understood as deleting the data packet received by the target object or the third object, for example, deleting the data packet in the PDCP buffer corresponding to the target object or the third object.

[0089] In the embodiments of the present application, in the case that the relative time delay between the first object and the second object is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal performs a first operation, the first operation including at least one of the following: performing a deletion operation on the target object or adjusting the transmission priority of the target object or adjusting the LCP, and reporting the relative time delay state, that is, providing a processing manner for the object (i.e., the target object) with slower transmission among the first object and the second object in the case that the relative time delay between the first object and the second object will not meet the relative time delay requirement or has not met the relative time delay requirement. Specifically, by performing the deletion operation on the target object, the resource waste caused by the transmission of the target object can be avoided; by adjusting the transmission priority of the target object or adjusting the LCP, the transmission of the above target object is facilitated or the influence of the target object on the transmission of the object meeting the relative time delay requirement is reduced; by reporting the relative time delay state, the network side is facilitated to assist in scheduling the target object; and / or in the case that the third object does not meet the time delay requirement, performing a second operation, the second operation including performing a deletion operation on the third object or adjusting the transmission priority of the third object or adjusting the LCP, that is, providing a processing manner for the third object in the case that the third object does not meet the time delay requirement. Specifically, by performing the deletion operation on the third object, the resource waste caused by the transmission of the third object can be avoided; by adjusting the transmission priority of the third object or adjusting the LCP, the influence of the third object on the transmission of the object meeting the time delay requirement is reduced.

[0090] Optionally, the object is a QoS flow, and the method further includes:

[0091] The terminal calculates the relative time delay between the first object and the second object according to a prioritised bit rate (PBR) of the first object, a transmission rate of the first object, a PBR of the second object, and a transmission rate of the second object.

[0092] In the embodiments, the PBR of the first object and the PBR of the second object can be configured by a network side device.

[0093] The transmission rate of the first object can be a transmission rate of the first object counted in a first time window, and the transmission rate of the second object can be a transmission rate of the second object counted in the first time window. The first time window can be configured by a protocol or a network side device.

[0094] For example, the relative time delay between the first object and the second object can be determined based on the following calculation formula:

[0095] Rt represents the relative time delay of the first object and the second object, x1-x represents the data amount in a unit time, X represents the PBR of the first object, y1-y represents the data amount in a unit time, Y represents the PBR of the second object, x1 represents the transmission rate of the first object, and y1 represents the transmission rate of the second object.

[0096] It can be understood that, if the units of x1, y1, X and Y are all Mbps, the unit time is 1s, and the unit of the first threshold T is ms, the relative time delay of the first object and the second object being greater than or equal to the first threshold can be represented as:

[0097] Alternatively,

[0098] In this embodiment, the relative time delay between QoS flows can be calculated based on the PBR and the transmission rate of the QoS flows, and a way of calculating the relative time delay based on the granularity of the QoS flow is provided, which is relatively simple to implement.

[0099] Optionally, the object is a QoS flow, and the method further includes:

[0100] The terminal calculates the relative time delay of the first object and the second object according to the transmission rate of the first object, the transmission rate of the second object and the first ratio, the first ratio being the ratio of the PBR of the first object to the PBR of the second object, or the first ratio being a ratio configured by the network side device.

[0101] The transmission rate of the first object can be the transmission rate of the first object counted in a first time window, and the transmission rate of the second object can be the transmission rate of the second object counted in the first time window. The first time window can be agreed by a protocol or configured by the network side device.

[0102] Exemplarily, the relative time delay of the first object and the second object can be determined based on the following calculation formula:

[0103] Rt = |x1-y1*R|; and

[0104] Rt represents the relative time delay of the first object and the second object, R represents the first ratio, the numerator of R is 1, for example, R = 1 / K, K is a positive number, x1 represents the transmission rate of the first object, and y1 represents the transmission rate of the second object.

[0105] It can be understood that, if the units of x1 and y1 are all Mbps, and the unit of the first threshold T is ms, the relative time delay of the first object and the second object being greater than or equal to the first threshold can be represented as:

[0106] │x1-y1*R│*1000<=T; or,

[0107] In this embodiment, the relative delay between QoS flows can be calculated based on the transmission rate of the QoS flow and the flow rate ratio between QoS flows, which provides a way to calculate the relative delay based on the granularity of the QoS flow, and the implementation is relatively simple.

[0108] In some optional embodiments, the above-mentioned statistics of the transmission rate of the first object and the transmission rate of the second object in the first time window can be performed by the PDCP. For example, the first PDCP can count the transmission rate of the first object based on the data packets delivered to the lower layer in the first time window, and the second PDCP can count the transmission rate of the second object based on the data packets delivered to the lower layer in the first time window; or the first PDCP can count the transmission rate of the first object based on the acknowledgement information of the data packets received in the first time window, and the second PDCP can count the transmission rate of the second object based on the acknowledgement information of the data packets received in the first time window. Wherein, the first PDCP is the PDCP corresponding to the first object, and the second PDCP is the PDCP corresponding to the second object.

[0109] Optionally, the object is a data packet or a data packet set, the first object is the object of the first QoS flow, and the second object is the object of the second QoS flow.

[0110] The first QoS flow and the second QoS flow are mapped to the same logical channel, and the first QoS flow and the second QoS flow have an association relationship.

[0111] In this embodiment, the association relationship between the above-mentioned QoS flows can be determined according to the MMSID associated with the QoS flow, for example, at least two QoS flows associated with the same MMSID are QoS flows having an association relationship.

[0112] In some optional embodiments, the network side device can configure the terminal to map the QoS flows having an association relationship to the same logical channel. For example, the RAN device or the service data adaptation protocol (Service Data Adaptation Protocol, SDAP) of the RAN device can configure the terminal to map the QoS flows having an association relationship to the same logical channel.

[0113] The embodiment maps the QoS flows having the correlation relationship to the same logical channel, and thus facilitates guaranteeing the relative delay requirement between the QoS flows having the correlation relationship.

[0114] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0115] The terminal numbers the data packets of the first QoS flow and the data packets of the second QoS flow according to a second ratio.

[0116] Exemplarily, the PDCP of the terminal numbers the data packets of the first QoS flow and the data packets of the second QoS flow according to a second ratio.

[0117] Optionally, the second ratio is configured by the network side device, or the second ratio is a ratio of the PBR of the first QoS flow and the PBR of the second QoS flow, or the second ratio is a ratio of the flow rates of the first QoS flow and the second QoS flow.

[0118] The embodiment numbers the data packets of the first QoS flow and the data packets of the second QoS flow according to a second ratio, so that the data packets of the first QoS flow and the data packets of the second QoS flow can be sent in proportion, and thus the first QoS flow and the second QoS flow can meet the relative delay requirement.

[0119] Optionally, the data packets having the correlation relationship are adjacent in the data packets of the first QoS flow and the data packets of the second QoS flow.

[0120] The embodiment sets the data packets having the correlation relationship to be adjacent in the data packets of the first QoS flow and the data packets of the second QoS flow, and thus facilitates guaranteeing the data packets having the correlation relationship to meet the relative delay requirement.

[0121] Optionally, the correlation relationship between the data packets is determined according to the packet header of the data packets.

[0122] Exemplarily, the packet header of the data packet can include an indication for indicating the correlation relationship between the data packets, for example, the P bits of the packet header of the data packet are used to indicate the correlation relationship between the data packets, P is a positive integer, if the P bits of the packet header of two data packets have the same value, for example, the P bits of the packet header of two data packets are all 001, it indicates that the two data packets are the data packets having the correlation relationship.

[0123] In some optional embodiments, the PDCP can determine the association between the data packets according to the packet headers of the data packets from the higher layer.

[0124] Optionally, the first object is a data packet set, and the method further comprises:

[0125] The terminal determines that the first object and the second object have the association according to the packet header of at least one data packet of the first object and the packet header of at least one data packet of the second object.

[0126] The data packet set can include a protocol data unit set (PDU Set).

[0127] For example, if it is determined that there is at least one data packet having the association between the first object and the second object according to the packet header of at least one data packet of the first object and the packet header of at least one data packet of the second object, it is determined that the first object and the second object have the association; or if it is determined that each data packet of the first object has the association with at least one data packet of the second object according to the packet header of each data packet of the first object and the packet header of each data packet of the second object, it is determined that the first object and the second object have the association.

[0128] Optionally, the packet header of each data packet of the first QoS flow further includes relative delay information corresponding to each data packet, and the packet header of each data packet of the second QoS flow further includes relative delay information corresponding to each data packet; wherein the relative delay information includes at least one of a relative delay preset RDB and a remaining time threshold.

[0129] Or,

[0130] The packet header of each data packet of the first QoS flow further includes an identifier of a data packet associated with each data packet, and the packet header of each data packet of the second QoS flow further includes an identifier of a data packet associated with each data packet.

[0131] For example, the PDCP of the terminal can obtain the relative delay information according to the packet header of the data packet from the higher layer.

[0132] In an embodiment, the relative delay information can be configured for each data packet respectively, so that the relative delay between each data packet and the data packet associated with the data packet can be compared with the relative delay information corresponding to the data packet.

[0133] In another embodiment, the relative latency information can be configured based on the granularity of the QoS flow, in which case, the network side device can configure the relative latency information corresponding to each QoS flow through a radio resource control (RRC) message or the like. Therefore, in this case, the packet header of each data packet can not need to carry the relative latency information, but can carry the identifier of the data packet associated therewith in the packet header of each data packet, so as to facilitate quick acquisition of the data packet associated with each data packet.

[0134] Optionally, the object is a data packet, and the method further comprises:

[0135] Before the first object is scheduled, the terminal calculates the relative latency of the first object and the second object according to the time when the second object is scheduled and the current time.

[0136] Exemplarily, the first relative latency timer can be started when the second object is scheduled, and the current duration of the first relative latency timer before the first object is scheduled is the relative latency of the first object and the second object. It can be understood that in this case, the first object is the object with slower transmission.

[0137] Optionally, the object is a data packet set, and the method further comprises:

[0138] Before the data packet of the first object is scheduled, the terminal calculates the relative latency of the first object and the second object according to the time when the data packet of the second object is scheduled and the current time.

[0139] It can be understood that the data packet of the first object is still in the PDCP buffer before the data packet of the first object is scheduled. It can be understood that the data packet of the second object is scheduled before the data packet of the first object.

[0140] Exemplarily, the second relative latency timer can be started when the data packet of the second object is scheduled, and the current duration of the second relative latency timer before the data packet of the first object is scheduled is the relative latency of the first object and the second object.

[0141] Optionally, before the data packet of the first object is scheduled, the terminal calculates the relative latency of the first object and the second object according to the time when the data packet of the second object is scheduled and the current time, comprising:

[0142] Before the first data packet of the first object is scheduled, the terminal calculates the relative latency of the first object and the second object according to the time when the second data packet of the second object is scheduled and the current time.

[0143] wherein the first data packet is a K1th data packet in the first object, the second data packet is a K2th data packet in the second object, and K1 and K2 are positive integers.

[0144] K1 and K2 can be agreed upon by a protocol, configured by a network side device, or determined by the terminal.

[0145] For example, before the first data packet of the first object is scheduled, the terminal can calculate the relative delay of the first object and the second object according to the time when the first data packet of the second object is scheduled and the current time; or, before the first data packet of the first object is scheduled, the terminal can calculate the relative delay of the first object and the second object according to the time when the last data packet of the second object is scheduled and the current time; before the last data packet of the first object is scheduled, the terminal can calculate the relative delay of the first object and the second object according to the time when the last data packet of the second object is scheduled and the current time.

[0146] Optionally, the first threshold is RDB, and the first operation includes performing a deletion operation on the target object or adjusting the sending priority of the target object or adjusting LCP.

[0147] For example, the terminal can directly delete the target object, or the terminal can decide whether to delete the target object or to lower the sending priority of the target object according to whether there is a data packet satisfying the relative delay requirement in the data packets in the PDCP buffer, for example, in the case where there is a data packet satisfying the relative delay requirement in the data packets in the PDCP buffer, the target object can be deleted, and in the case where there is no data packet satisfying the relative delay requirement in the PDCP buffer, the sending priority of the target object can be lowered; or, the terminal can directly lower the sending priority of the target object; or, the terminal can directly lower the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object.

[0148] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0149] The terminal performs a third operation in the case where the remaining time of the RDB of the first object and the second object is less than or equal to a remaining time threshold.

[0150] The third operation includes at least one of the following: adjusting LCP, and reporting a relative delay state.

[0151] In the embodiment, in a case where the remaining time of the RDB of the first object and the second object is less than or equal to the remaining time threshold, the LCP can be adjusted, for example, the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object can be increased, which is beneficial to preferentially transmitting the target object; or the relative delay state can be reported, which is beneficial to assisting the network side device in scheduling.

[0152] In some optional embodiments, in a case where the first object and the second object are QoS flows, the third operation can be stopped in a case where the relative delay requirement is met between the first object and the second object.

[0153] For example, taking the first object as QoS flow A and the second object as QoS flow B as an example, the PBR of the QoS flow A is 1 Mbps, the PBR of the QoS flow B is 2 Mbps, the UE synchronizes according to the ratio of 1:2 between the QoS flow A and the QoS flow B, if the RDB is 100 ms, the network configured remaining time threshold is 50 ms, the UE monitors the transmission state of the QoS flow A and the QoS flow B, if according to the statistical period, the transmission rate of the QoS flow A is 1 Mbps, the transmission rate of the QoS flow B is 1.5 Mbps, and according to the RDB=100 ms and the network configured remaining time threshold=50 ms, it is calculated that the rate of the QoS flow B can only be 1.9 Mbps at most when the QoS flow A is 1 Mbps, at this time, the LCP adjustment (i.e., increasing the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the QoS flow B) or the DSR reporting can be triggered until the QoS flow B and the QoS flow A maintain the relative delay threshold.

[0154] Optionally, the first threshold is the difference between the RDB and the remaining time threshold, and the first operation includes at least one of the following: adjusting the transmission priority of the target object or adjusting the LCP, and reporting the relative delay state.

[0155] For example, in a case where the first object and the second object are mapped to the same logical channel, the transmission priority of the target object can be increased, that is, in the LCP process, when it is the turn of the logical channel to fill in data, the data packet with the smaller remaining time of the RDB is preferentially filled in the data packet; in a case where the first object and the second object are mapped to different logical channels, the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object can be increased.

[0156] In the case that the remaining time of the RDB corresponding to the first object and the second object is less than or equal to the remaining time threshold, the terminal can increase the transmission priority of the target object, or increase the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object, or the terminal can report the relative time delay state, which is beneficial to ensure that the target object meets the relative time delay requirement.

[0157] Optionally, the reporting of the relative time delay state comprises at least one of the following:

[0158] reporting a time delay state report (DSR), wherein the DSR comprises the relative time delay state;

[0159] reporting the relative time delay state through a first medium access control control element (MAC CE).

[0160] The relative time delay state can comprise, but is not limited to, at least one of a first remaining time and a first buffer size. The first remaining time can be determined according to the remaining time of the RDB corresponding to the target object, and / or the first buffer size can be determined according to the data amount of the target object. For example, the first remaining time is the minimum value of the remaining time greater than 0 among the remaining times of the RDBs corresponding to all target objects in a first logical channel group (LCG), and / or the first buffer size is the sum of the data amounts of all target objects in the first LCG. The first LCG is an arbitrary LCG.

[0161] For example, the relative time delay state can be reported by reusing the format of the MAC CE used for reporting the DSR in the related art, or by using a newly defined format of the MAC CE.

[0162] Optionally, the third object does not meet the time delay requirement, which comprises at least one of the following:

[0163] The discard timer corresponding to the third object is overdue;

[0164] The relative time delay timer corresponding to the third object is overdue.

[0165] The discard timer can comprise, but is not limited to, a PDCP discard timer, a discard timer for low importance (discardTimerForLowImportance), etc. For example, the discard timer is overdue when the timing duration of the discard timer reaches the PDB.

[0166] The relative time delay timer can be used for relative time delay timing. For example, the relative time delay timer is overdue when the timing duration of the relative time delay timer reaches the RDB.

[0167] Optionally, the third object is a data packet in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) buffer.

[0168] The deleting operation performed on the third object includes:

[0169] In a case where a first condition is met, deleting all data packets in the PDCP buffer that do not meet a delay requirement;

[0170] And / or,

[0171] The adjusting of the sending priority of the third object or the adjusting of logical channel prioritization (LCP) includes:

[0172] In a case where the first condition is not met, adjusting the priority of the data packets in the PDCP buffer to a lowest priority.

[0173] The first condition includes at least one of the following: there is a data packet that meets the delay requirement among the data packets in the PDCP buffer; all data packets having an association relationship with the data packets in the PDCP buffer have completed transmission.

[0174] The data packet can include a protocol data unit (PDU) or a service data unit (SDU) in the PDCP buffer.

[0175] The data packet that meets the delay requirement can also be referred to as a data packet that is not overdue. The data packet that does not meet the delay requirement can also be referred to as a data packet that is overdue.

[0176] In the embodiment, in a case where there is a data packet that is overdue in the PDCP buffer, if there is a data packet that is not overdue among the data packets in the PDCP buffer, the data packet that is overdue in the PDCP buffer can be deleted to avoid the influence of the data packet that is overdue on the transmission of the data packet that is not overdue; or if all data packets having an association relationship with the data packets in the PDCP buffer have completed transmission, the data packet that is overdue in the PDCP buffer can be deleted to avoid resource waste; or if all data packets in the PDCP buffer are overdue or there is a data packet having an association relationship with the data packets in the PDCP buffer that has not completed transmission, the sending priority of the data packet that is overdue can be reduced, for example, the priority of a logical channel corresponding to the data packet that is overdue is reduced, and other PDCP buffers are filled each time before being filled again.

[0177] In some optional embodiments, a network side device can configure a terminal to perform the above operations.

[0178] Optionally, after the priority of the data packets in the PDCP buffer is adjusted to the lowest priority, the method further includes:

[0179] In a case where there is a new data packet arriving in the PDCP buffer, all data packets in the PDCP buffer that do not meet the delay requirement are deleted.

[0180] In the embodiment, in a case where there is a new data packet arriving in the PDCP buffer, all data packets in the PDCP buffer that do not meet the delay requirement are deleted, so that the influence of overdue data packets on the transmission of newly-arriving data packets can be avoided.

[0181] Optionally, the target object or the third object is a data packet in a PDCP buffer, and in a case where the deletion operation is performed on the target object or the deletion operation is performed on the third object, the method further includes:

[0184] Optionally, the terminal sends the first information to the network side device, including:

[0185] The terminal sends the first information to the network side device through a PDCP control protocol data unit (control PDU) or a radio link control (RLC) control PDU or a second MAC CE.

[0186] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0191] In a case where the first object is preferentially transmitted than the second object, the relative delay between the first object and the second object is greater than or equal to the first sub-threshold.

[0192] In a case that the second object has a higher priority than the first object, a relative time delay between the first object and the second object is greater than or equal to a second sub-threshold.

[0193] In the embodiment, the trigger threshold corresponding to a case that the first object has a higher priority than the second object is different from the trigger threshold corresponding to a case that the second object has a higher priority than the first object, which is beneficial to meet the relative time delay requirement in different scenarios.

[0194] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0195] The terminal receives first indication information from the network side device, and the first indication information is used to instruct the terminal to adjust the LCP.

[0196] For example, in a case that the network side device monitors the relative time delay between the first object and the second object, the network side device can send first indication information to the terminal to instruct the terminal to adjust the LCP in a case that the relative time delay between the first object and the second object is greater than a first threshold, for example, the first indication information can be used to instruct the terminal to increase the priority of the logical channel corresponding to the target object, wherein the target object is the object with a slower transmission speed in the first object and the second object.

[0197] Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a flow chart of an object processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, and the method can be executed by a network side device, as shown in FIG. 3, including the following steps:

[0204] In some optional embodiments, in a case that the first indication information is used to instruct the terminal to adjust the LCP, the network side device can pre-configure the strategy of the LCP adjustment for the terminal, for example, the network side device can send second information to the terminal through a radio resource control (RRC) message, the second information being used to instruct the terminal to adjust the strategy of the LCP, and the second information can include at least one of M, a target priority, a target LCP mapping limit, and the like, wherein M is a positive integer, M indicates that the LCH priority is adjusted by M levels, the target priority is used to indicate that the LCH priority is adjusted to the target priority, and the target LCP mapping limit is used to indicate that the LCP mapping limit is adjusted to the target LCP mapping limit.
