[0254] It should be noted that the implementation method of this embodiment can be found in Figure 4 The relevant description of the illustrated embodiment is not repeated here.

[0255] The following examples illustrate the embodiments of the present application:

[0256] It should be noted that the data involved in the embodiments of the present application may include perception data, QoE, MDT, SON, AI training data, AI model and calculation data, etc. The following examples are explained by taking perception data as an example. Among them, there are two modes for the collection and transmission of perception data. The first mode is that the data required for perception is collected and coordinated through the data plane function (such as the first function) and transmitted based on the data plane bearer. When there are multiple perception services that can use the same perception measurement data, or when the communication service can use the same measurement data with the perception service (for example, the reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP) of the downlink reference signal (Reference Signal, RS) reported by the UE can be reused in perception), the multiplexing of the UE's measurement data is supported to avoid repeated measurements and repeated reporting by the UE; the second mode is that the data required for perception is transmitted through the data plane bearer without the need for data collection and coordination by the first function.

[0257] Example 1: The data providing function is UE, the first function is a wireless access network node, the first function coordinates data collection, and the data transmission is terminated at the core network function.

[0258] This example takes the first mode of collection and transmission of perception data as an example for illustration. For the first mode of collection and transmission of perception data, it is assumed that the wireless access network node and / or the core network perception function has determined the UE that receives the perception signal and the measurement, and the determined UE supports the data plane. Then the network sends the first configuration information for adding / establishing the first bearer to the UE. The configuration method of the first bearer can refer to the relevant description of the aforementioned embodiment, where the type of the first bearer is a control bearer terminated at the wireless access network node.

[0259] The first function determines the data to be collected according to multiple data requirements such as perception and MDT, and determines whether to perform data transmission based on the second bearer. If it is determined that data transmission is performed based on the second bearer, the wireless access network node sends the second configuration information for adding / establishing the second bearer to the UE. For example, the wireless access network node can send the second configuration information for adding / establishing the second bearer to the UE based on the first bearer. The configuration method of the second bearer can refer to the relevant description of the aforementioned embodiment. Because the data is coordinated by the first function, the type of the second bearer can be a data bearer terminated at the wireless access network node. In this case, the wireless access network node can store all received data and extract the data required by the corresponding perception function and send it to the core network perception function; or the type of the second bearer can be a data bearer processed and forwarded by the wireless access network node. In this case, the wireless access network node can filter and process multiple perception measurement data at different times / locations to generate a smaller amount of perception measurement data and / or more accurate perception measurement data, and then forward the processed data to the core network perception function. Exemplarily, in this example, when the layer 2 sublayer includes MAC, the protocol stacks of the UE, RAN and core network (CN) can be as follows: Figure 8 shown.

[0260] If it is determined not to transmit data based on the second bearer, the type of the first bearer may be a control and data bearer, that is, the perception data may be transmitted through the first bearer.

[0261] Specifically, the radio access network node may send a data collection request (or referred to as data collection configuration or measurement configuration, etc.) to the UE based on the first bearer, where the data collection request is determined by the first function. The data collection request may include at least one of the following:

[0262] A measurement object, which is used to specify the content to be measured; optionally, the measurement object may also include a cell-specific offset, a blacklist cell to be ignored, and a whitelist cell to be considered for measurement;

[0263] Reporting Configuration, which specifies how reporting should be done, which can be periodic or event-triggered;

[0264] Measurement ID is used to identify how to report the measurement value of a specific object; a measurement object can have multiple reporting configurations, and a reporting configuration can be applied to multiple measurement objects. Each association of a measurement object to a reporting configuration uses a unique ID. When the UE sends a MeasurementReport message, the MeasurementReport message contains an ID and related metrics (i.e., the measurement results of each measurement quantity);

[0265] Measurement Gap: used to indicate the period in which the UE can perform measurements, etc.

[0266] Among them, the ID of the second bearer can be configured in the reporting configuration. The UE reports the perception data based on the second bearer according to the configured ID of the second bearer. After the wireless access network node receives the data of the second bearer, it forwards the data to the core network perception function (Sensing Function, SF) according to the type of the second bearer.

[0267] Example 2: The data providing function is UE, the first function is a wireless access network node, the first function configures data forwarding information, and the data transmission is terminated at the core network function.

[0268] This example takes the second mode of collection and transmission of perception data as an example for illustration. For the second mode of collection and transmission of perception data, it is assumed that the wireless access network node and / or the core network perception function has determined the UE that receives the perception signal and the measurement, and the determined UE supports the data plane. Then the wireless access network node sends configuration information for adding / establishing the first bearer to the UE. The configuration method of the first bearer can refer to the relevant description of the aforementioned embodiment, where the type of the first bearer is a control bearer terminated at the wireless access network node.

[0269] The first function receives the perception configuration information. For example, the first function receives the perception configuration information from the core network perception function, and can forward the perception configuration information to the perception service function of the UE based on the first bearer. The perception configuration information includes target indication information, which is used to indicate that the first protocol layer forwards the perception configuration information and the perception configuration information that needs to be transparently forwarded by the first protocol layer (if the first protocol layer is to prevent parsing, the above-mentioned perception configuration information can be transmitted in an encrypted manner). Optionally, the SDU of the perception configuration information includes a perception service function ID or information that can be used to determine a suitable perception service function. The perception service function ID is used for the wireless access network node to forward the received data to the indicated perception service function according to the perception service function ID. The above-mentioned information for determining the appropriate perception service function can be a perception service type (such as rainfall monitoring, speed measurement, etc.), geographic location information, etc. The wireless access network node determines the appropriate perception service function based on the obtained perception service type, geographic location information, load information of the perception service function, etc., and forwards the received data to the determined perception service function.

[0270] The first function determines whether to perform data transmission based on the second bearer. If it is determined that data transmission is performed based on the second bearer, the wireless access network node sends second configuration information for adding / establishing the second bearer to the UE. The configuration method of the second bearer can refer to the relevant description of the aforementioned embodiment. Because the data is ultimately transmitted to the core network perception function, the type of the second bearer is a data bearer forwarded at the wireless access network node, or a data bearer forwarded after processing at the wireless access network node. For the latter, the wireless access network node can perform filtering and other processing on multiple perception measurement data at different times / locations to generate a smaller amount of perception measurement data and / or more high-precision perception measurement data, and then forward the processed data to the core network perception function. Exemplarily, in this example, when the layer 2 sublayer includes MAC, the protocol stacks of the UE, RAN, and CN can be as follows. Fig. 9 As shown, if a service-oriented interface is used between RAN and CN, the wireless access network can provide data to the core network function through data services. The core network data function, core network perception function and core network AI function can adopt a service-oriented interface solution, which needs to support efficient data transmission (such as File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or Kafka, etc.).

[0271] If it is determined not to perform data transmission based on the second bearer, the type of the first bearer may be a control and data bearer.

[0272] It should be noted that there are two ways for UE reporting configuration. One way is to configure the ID of the second bearer in the SDU of the perception configuration information forwarded in the above-mentioned first protocol layer, so that the UE reports the perception data based on the second bearer according to the configured ID of the second bearer, and the wireless access network node forwards the data to the core network perception function according to the type of the second bearer after receiving the data of the second bearer. Another way is the same as the way in Example 1, that is, the wireless access network node sends the first configuration information for adding / establishing the first bearer to the UE, wherein the type of the first bearer is a control bearer terminated in the wireless access network, and the wireless access network node sends a data collection request to the UE based on the first bearer terminated in the first protocol layer, and the data collection request includes at least the ID of the second bearer, so that the UE can also report the perception data based on the second bearer according to the configured ID of the second bearer, and the wireless access network node forwards the data to the core network perception function according to the type of the second bearer after receiving the data of the second bearer.

[0273] Example 3: The data providing function is UE, the first function is a wireless access network node, and the data transmission is terminated at the wireless access network node.

[0274] The main difference between this example and Example 1 or Example 2 is that if it is determined that data transmission is to be based on the second bearer, the wireless access network node sends second configuration information for adding / establishing the second bearer to the UE. Because the data is ultimately transmitted to the wireless access network perception function, the type of the second bearer is terminated at the wireless access network node. If the wireless access network adopts the functional schemes of CU-CP, Centralized Unit-User Plane (CU-UP) and Centralized Unit-Data Plane (CU-DP), the type of the second type of bearer can also be further subdivided into termination at the data plane function, forwarding at the data plane function, and forwarding after processing at the data plane function. Among them, the above-mentioned bearer type that terminates at the data plane function is applicable to the first mode mentioned above. In this case, exemplarily, when the layer 2 sublayer includes MAC, the protocol stacks of UE, RAN and CN can be as follows. Fig.10 For the bearer types forwarded by the above-mentioned data plane function and forwarded after processing by the data plane function, the data plane function forwards the received data to a radio access network function such as CU-CP or CU-UP. For example, in the case where the layer 2 sublayer includes PDCP, RLC, MAC and PHY, the protocol stacks of UE, RAN and CN can be as follows Fig.11 Shown

[0275] If it is determined not to perform data transmission based on the second bearer, the type of the first bearer may be a control and data bearer.

[0276] It should be noted that the interface between the access network node and the core network AMF in the 5G protocol is called the N2 interface, and the interface between the access network node and the core network UPF is called the N3 interface. The Nx involved in the above figure represents the interface between the access network node and the core network data function. Similar to the interface between the wireless access network centralized unit control plane (CU-CP) and the centralized unit user plane (CU-UP) in the 5G protocol is called the E1 interface, and Ey represents the interface between the wireless access network data plane function and the wireless access network perception function. The xNB involved in the above figure represents a base station, NxAP represents the application protocol of the Nx interface, which is used to support Nx interface management and data plane message interaction, and EyAP represents the application protocol of the Ey interface, which is used to support interface management and message interaction between the two functions.
