Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of communication, and particularly relates to a notification method and device and communication equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] The QoS profile of a Quality of Service (QoS) flow can contain PDU Set (Protocol Data Unit) granularity QoS parameters and packet granularity QoS parameters. Meanwhile, the QoS flow can optionally also include one or more alternative QoS profiles. The alternative QoS profiles can also contain PDU Set QoS parameters and packet granularity QoS parameters.

[0277] In one embodiment, the satisfied QoS matches one or more alternative QoS parameter sets (e.g., matches one or more alternative QoS parameter sets in order of priority of the alternative QoS parameter sets) can mean that, for one of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the satisfied QoS matches a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set.

[0278] In one embodiment, the satisfied QoS does not match any alternative QoS parameter set can mean that, for one of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the satisfied QoS does not match a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set.

[0279] In one embodiment, the satisfied QoS does not match any alternative QoS parameter set can mean that, for one of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the satisfied QoS does not match a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set.

[0281] In one embodiment, the satisfied QoS does not match the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority can mean that the satisfied QoS does not match a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority.

[0282] In one embodiment, the satisfied QoS does not match the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority can mean that the satisfied QoS does not match a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority.

[0285] In one embodiment, the satisfied QoS does not match the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority can mean that the satisfied QoS does not match a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority.

[0286] In another embodiment, the notification is sent and includes information indicating that the QoS is not satisfied when the fourth condition is met, the fifth condition and the sixth condition are met, or the fifth condition and the third condition are met, or the second condition and the sixth condition are met. The meeting and not meeting can be the notification condition and manner agreed by the device sending the notification and the device receiving the notification, so that the target device of the notification knows the actual execution of the QoS.

[0287] By sending the fourth information when the tenth condition is met, since the fourth information indicates the specific unmatched or unsatisfied parameter and indicates the specific matched or satisfied QoS parameter, the target device of the notification can know the actual execution of the QoS based on the fourth information, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0288] By sending the first information when the fourth condition or the tenth condition is met, since the first information indicates the specific unmatched or unsatisfied parameter and indicates the specific matched or satisfied QoS parameter, the target device of the notification can know the actual execution of the QoS based on the first information, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0289] By sending the fifth information when the eleventh condition is met, since the fifth information indicates the specific unmatched or unsatisfied parameter and indicates the specific matched or satisfied QoS parameter, the target device of the notification can know the actual execution of the QoS based on the fifth information, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0290] By sending the seventh information when the thirteenth condition is met, since the seventh information indicates the specific matched or satisfied QoS parameter, the target device of the notification can know the actual execution of the QoS based on the seventh information, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0291] By sending the sixth information when the twelfth condition is met, since the sixth information indicates the specific unmatched or unsatisfied QoS parameter, the target device of the notification can know the actual execution of the QoS and the transmission performance, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0292] By sending the eighth information in the case of satisfying the fourteenth condition, the target device is informed of the actual implementation of the QoS, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance, since the eighth information indicates the specific matched or satisfied QoS parameter.

[0336] In an embodiment, the notification is sent in a case where the first condition is satisfied, and the notification includes information indicating that the QoS is not satisfied.

[0337] application can be understood as the PDU Set QoS processing being activated. The PDU Set QoS processing not being applied can be understood as the PDU Set QoS processing not being activated.

[0338] In an embodiment, the notification is sent in a case where the second condition and the third condition are satisfied, and the notification includes information indicating that the QoS is satisfied.

[0339] It is not difficult to understand that the second condition and the third condition can be the following four:

[0344] By at least one of the first condition, the second condition, and the third condition, it can be realized that the QoS is notified to be satisfied based on different conditions in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied or not applied, to indicate which QoS parameters are satisfied in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, and to indicate which QoS parameters are satisfied in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, so that the target device notified can understand the actual execution of the QoS, in order to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS, to guarantee the transmission performance.

[0372] In an implementation, the notification is sent when the seventh condition, the eighth condition, or the ninth condition is satisfied, and the notification comprises information indicating that the QoS is not satisfied.

[0373] It is not difficult to understand that the eighth condition and the ninth condition can be the following four:

[0374] the eighth condition comprises that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the uplink direction; and the ninth condition comprises that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the downlink direction;

[0375] The eighth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the uplink direction; the ninth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing is not applied in the downlink direction.

[0376] The eighth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing is not applied in the uplink direction; the ninth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the downlink direction.

[0377] The eighth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the uplink direction; the ninth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing is not applied in the downlink direction.

[0378] By utilizing at least one of the seventh, eighth, and ninth conditions mentioned above, it is possible to notify that QoS is not satisfied based on different conditions, whether PDU Set QoS processing is applied or not. This indicates which QoS parameters are not satisfied when PDU Set QoS processing is applied, and which QoS parameters are not satisfied when PDU Set QoS processing is not applied. As a result, the notified target device can understand the actual execution status of QoS, so as to adjust QoS requirements or throughput to apply QoS and ensure transmission performance.

[0379] Optionally, the fourth condition includes the application of PDU Set QoS processing, and also includes at least one of the following:

[0380] The satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter;

[0382] The first PDU Set QoS parameters were not met.

[0383] The satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter;

[0385] Optionally, the fifth condition includes: PDU Set QoS processing in the first direction is applied, and the fifth condition further includes at least one of the following:

[0386] The satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter in the first direction, or the satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter in the first direction.

[0395] the first PDU Set QoS parameter in the second direction is not satisfied, or the first PDU Set QoS parameter in the second direction is not satisfied;

[0396] the satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter in the second direction, or the satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter in the second direction;

[0398] wherein,

[0399] the first direction is an uplink direction, and the second direction is a downlink direction; or the first direction is a downlink direction, and the second direction is an uplink direction.

[0400] In the case of satisfying the fourth condition, satisfying the fifth condition and the sixth condition, or satisfying the fifth condition and the third condition, or satisfying the second condition and the sixth condition, an embodiment sends a notification, and the notification comprises information indicating that the QoS is satisfied.

[0401] It is not difficult to understand that the logic here is that under the premise of "the PDU Set QoS processing is applied", although the first QoS parameter in the first parameter set is not satisfied, the second QoS parameter in the first parameter set is satisfied, and the QoS can also be notified to be satisfied.

[0402] In another implementation, in a case that the fourth condition is met, the fifth condition and the sixth condition are met, or the fifth condition and the third condition are met, or the second condition and the sixth condition are met, a notification is sent in another implementation, the notification including information indicating that the QoS is not met.

[0403] It is not difficult to understand that the logic here is that in the premise that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the first QoS parameter in the first parameter set is not met, and the QoS is not met.

[0404] Through the above fourth condition, the fifth condition, the sixth condition, at least one of which can be achieved in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, one way is to notify that the QoS is met, and the other way is to notify that it is not met, and in combination with the PDU Set QoS processing is applied and not applied, the target device can determine which QoS parameters are met and which QoS parameters are not met, and the notification effect can be achieved.

[0405] Optionally, the fourth condition further includes at least one of the following:

[0410] Wherein,

[0411] The first object includes at least one of the following: a first QoS flow, a first radio bearer.

[0412] The first object does not have a replaceable QoS parameter set, which can be understood as that the QoS profile or QoS parameter of the first object does not contain a replaceable QoS parameter set.

[0413] The replaceable QoS parameter set can also be referred to as a replaceable QoS profile.

[0414] In one implementation, the QoS profile includes alternative QoS profiles. In another implementation, the QoS profile does not include alternative QoS profiles. The QoS profile (which can be understood as the original QoS profile) and the alternative QoS profiles are independent QoS profiles.

[0415] In one implementation, the first QoS flow is a certain QoS flow.

[0416] In one implementation, the first radio bearer is a radio bearer mapped from the first QoS flow or a certain radio bearer.

[0417] The first QoS flow having alternative QoS parameter sets means that the QoS Profile of the first QoS flow contains at least one alternative QoS parameter set.

[0418] The fourth condition above further includes the at least one above, so that the target device can determine a more detailed actual execution of the QoS, in order to better adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS, and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0419] Optionally, the tenth condition includes at least one of:

[0420] The satisfied QoS does not match at least one of: the first QoS parameter, any alternative QoS parameter set, the alternative QoS parameter set of the lowest priority, the third QoS parameter in the third parameter set;

[0422] The satisfied QoS does not match at least one of: the first PDU Set QoS parameter and the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set;

[0423] At least one of: the first PDU Set QoS parameter and the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set is not satisfied;

[0424] The satisfied QoS does not match at least one of: the first PDU Set QoS parameter and the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set;

[0425] The satisfied QoS matches at least one of: the second QoS parameter set, one or more alternative QoS parameter sets, the fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set;

[0426] At least one of the following is satisfied or can be satisfied: a second QoS parameter, one or more alternative QoS parameter sets, and a fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set;

[0427] The third parameter set includes one of the following: any set of alternative QoS parameters, or the set of alternative QoS parameters with the lowest priority.

[0428] The fourth parameter set is: one or more alternative QoS parameter sets.

[0429] The aforementioned tenth condition enables the transmission of either fourth or first information when some QoS parameters are met and others are not, indicating the specific unmatched or unmet parameters, as well as the specific matched or met QoS parameters. This allows the target device to understand the actual QoS implementation status based on the first information, enabling it to adjust QoS requirements or throughput to apply QoS and ensure transmission performance.

[0430] Optionally, the tenth condition further includes at least one of the following:

[0431] The first object has a set of alternative QoS parameters;

[0436] in,

[0437] The first object includes at least one of the following: a first QoS stream and a first radio bearer.

[0438] The existence of a set of alternative QoS parameters for the first object can be understood as the QoS profile or QoS parameters of the first object containing at least one set of alternative QoS parameters.

[0439] The set of alternative QoS parameters can also be referred to as alternative QoS configuration files.

[0440] In one implementation, the QoS profile includes an alternative QoS profile. In another implementation, the QoS profile does not include an alternative QoS profile. The QoS profile (which can be understood as an original QoS profile) and the alternative QoS profile are independent QoS profiles.

[0441] The tenth condition can be used to send the fourth information or the first information in the case that the first object does not have an alternative QoS parameter set, the first communication device supports PDU Set processing, and the QoS parameter of the first object includes a PDU Set QoS parameter, so that the notified target device can understand the actual execution of the QoS based on the fourth information or the first information, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to adapt to the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0456] wherein,

[0457] the first object comprises at least one of the following: a first QoS flow, a first radio bearer.

[0458] The above eleventh condition or thirteenth condition can be used to send the fifth information or the seventh information in a case where the first object does not have a replaceable QoS parameter set, the first communication device supports PDU Set processing, and the QoS parameter of the first object comprises a PDU Set QoS parameter, so that the target device of the notification understands the actual execution of the more specific QoS and the transmission performance, so as to better adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to apply the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0465] The third parameter set is one of: an arbitrary replaceable QoS parameter set, a lowest priority replaceable QoS parameter set.

[0466] The sixth information can be implemented by the twelfth condition to indicate specific unmatched or unsatisfied QoS parameters, so that the target device of the notification understands the actual execution of the QoS and the transmission performance, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to adapt to the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0467] Optionally, the fourteenth condition comprises at least one of:

[0484] The first QoS parameter is a QoS parameter of the first object;

[0485] The first QoS parameter is not a QoS parameter of the replaceable QoS parameter set;

[0509] If the first QoS parameter is the PDU Set QoS parameter and the GFBR, and the GFBR is not satisfied but the PDU Set QoS parameter is satisfied, then the satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter, the first condition is met, and PDU Set QoS processing is not applied. If the first QoS parameter is the PDU Set QoS parameter, and the GFBR is not satisfied but the PDU Set QoS parameter is satisfied, then the satisfied QoS matches the first QoS parameter, the first condition is not met, and PDU Set QoS processing is applied, but the GFBR requirement needs to be lowered.

[0522] It is not difficult to understand that, since the second QoS parameter is specifically limited, this can achieve the notification with these QoS parameters as granularity, so that the target device of the notification understands the actual execution of the more specific QoS, in order to better adjust the QoS requirement or throughput to apply the QoS, and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0528] Since the first PDU Set QoS parameter is specifically limited, this can achieve the notification with these QoS parameters as granularity, so that the target device of the notification understands the actual execution of the more specific QoS, in order to better adjust the QoS requirement or throughput to apply the QoS, and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0620] In an implementation, the first QoS refers to a QoS flow, and the first radio bearer is a radio bearer on which the first QoS flow is mapped.

[0621] In this implementation, the notification of the QoS parameters in the uplink direction at different granularities can be implemented to improve the notification effect.

[0622] Optionally, the first operation further comprises at least one of:

[0623] sending ninth information, the ninth information being used to indicate that the PDU Set QoS process is applied or not applied.

[0626] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS process is applied, the sending the notification and the notification comprising information used to indicate that the QoS is satisfied can represent that the first QoS parameter is satisfied. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS process is not applied, the sending the notification and the notification comprising information used to indicate that the QoS is satisfied can represent that the second QoS parameter is satisfied.

[0627] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS process is applied, the satisfaction of the alternative QoS parameter set can represent that the third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set is satisfied. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS process is not applied, the satisfaction of the alternative QoS parameter set can represent that the fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set is satisfied.

[0628] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the satisfied QoS matching alternative QoS parameter set can indicate a third QoS parameter in the satisfied QoS matching alternative QoS parameter set. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the satisfied alternative QoS parameter set can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the satisfied alternative QoS parameter set.

[0629] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied.

[0630] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the satisfied QoS not matching alternative QoS parameter set can indicate a third QoS parameter in the satisfied QoS not matching alternative QoS parameter set. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied.

[0631] It can be understood that, through the embodiment, the execution of the QoS can be synchronized between the communication devices.

[0632] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a flowchart of a communication method provided by the embodiment of the present application, and the method is applied to a second communication device (such as an SMF, a PCF, an NEF or an AF). As shown in Figure 3 , the method comprises the following steps:

[0633] Step 301: The second communication device performs a second operation, and the second operation comprises one of the following:

[0634] receiving at least one of the following: a notification, first information, second information, third information, fourth information, fifth information, sixth information, seventh information, eighth information, ninth information;

[0635] Among them,

[0636] The notification comprises: information indicating that the QoS is satisfied, or information indicating that the QoS is not satisfied;

[0637] The first information is used to indicate at least one of: the packet granularity QoS parameter is satisfied or the packet granularity QoS parameter and the Guaranteed Flow Bit Rate GFBR are satisfied; the PDU Set QoS parameter is not satisfied, or at least one of the PDU Set QoS parameter and the GFBR is not satisfied;

[0638] The second information is used to indicate one of: the PDU Set QoS parameter is not satisfied, or at least one of the PDU Set QoS parameter and the GFBR is not satisfied;

[0639] The third information is used to indicate one of: the packet granularity QoS parameter is satisfied, or the packet granularity QoS parameter and the GFBR are satisfied;

[0640] The fourth information is used to indicate at least one of: the satisfied QoS does not match at least one of: the first QoS parameter, any of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set, the third QoS parameter in the third parameter set; at least one of: the first QoS parameter, any of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set, the third QoS parameter in the third parameter set is not satisfied; the satisfied QoS does not match at least one of: the first PDU Set QoS parameter and the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set; at least one of: the first PDU Set QoS parameter, the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set is not satisfied; the satisfied QoS does not match at least one of: the first PDU Set QoS parameter, the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set; the satisfied QoS matches at least one of: the second QoS parameter set, one or more of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set; at least one of: the second QoS parameter, one or more of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set is satisfied or can be satisfied;

[0641] The fifth information is used to indicate at least one of: the satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter; the first QoS parameter is not satisfied; the first PDU Set QoS parameter is not satisfied;

[0642] The sixth information is used to indicate that the satisfied QoS matches none of the following: the first QoS parameter, any of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set, the third QoS parameter in the third parameter set; none of the following is satisfied: the first QoS parameter, any of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set, the third QoS parameter in the third parameter set; the satisfied QoS matches none of the following: the first PDU Set QoS parameter, the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set; none of the following is satisfied: the first PDU Set QoS parameter, the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set.

[0643] The seventh information is used to indicate that the satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter; the second QoS parameter is satisfied or can be satisfied.

[0644] The eighth information is used to indicate that the satisfied QoS matches none of the following: the second QoS parameter, one or more alternative QoS parameter sets, the fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set; none of the following is satisfied or can be satisfied: the second QoS parameter, one or more alternative QoS parameter sets, the fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set.

[0645] The ninth information is used to indicate that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied or not applied.

[0646] The first parameter set is one of the following: the first QoS parameter, any of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set.

[0647] The third parameter set is one of the following: any of the alternative QoS parameter sets, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set.

[0648] The fourth parameter set is one or more alternative QoS parameter sets.

[0649] The receiving the notification includes receiving the notification from the first communication device.

[0650] In an implementation, the information used to indicate that the QoS is satisfied and the information used to indicate that the QoS is not satisfied can be realized by two different values of one information (such as QoS notification or notification reason) (such as fulfilled, not fulfilled, or GFBR can be guaranteed, GFBR cannot be guaranteed).

[0651] The receiving the at least one of the first information, the second information, the third information, the fourth information, the fifth information, the sixth information, the seventh information, the eighth information, the ninth information comprises receiving the at least one of the first information, the second information, the third information, the fourth information, the fifth information, the sixth information, the seventh information, the eighth information, the ninth information from the first communication device.

[0652] In an embodiment, the satisfied QoS matches one or more fourth sets of QoS parameters can mean that, for one fourth set of QoS parameters, a fourth QoS parameter in the fourth set of QoS parameters is satisfied.

[0653] In an embodiment, the one or more fourth sets of QoS parameters are satisfied can mean that, for one fourth set of QoS parameters, a fourth QoS parameter in the fourth set of QoS parameters is satisfied.

[0654] In an embodiment, the satisfied QoS does not match any third set of QoS parameters can mean that, for one third set of QoS parameters, a third QoS parameter in the third set of QoS parameters is satisfied.

[0655] In an embodiment, the any third set of QoS parameters is not satisfied can mean that, for one third set of QoS parameters, a third QoS parameter in the third set of QoS parameters is not satisfied.

[0656] In an embodiment, the ninth information can help to understand the meaning of the at least one of the notification, the first information, the second information, the third information, the fourth information, the fifth information, the sixth information, the seventh information, the eighth information.

[0657] For example, in case the PDU Set QoS handling is applied, sending the notification and the notification comprising information indicating that the QoS is satisfied can mean that a first QoS parameter is satisfied. For example, in case the PDU Set QoS handling is not applied, sending the notification and the notification comprising information indicating that the QoS is satisfied can mean that a second QoS parameter is satisfied.

[0658] For example, in case the PDU Set QoS handling is applied, the alternative set of QoS parameters being satisfied can mean that a third QoS parameter in the alternative set of QoS parameters is satisfied. For example, in case the PDU Set QoS handling is not applied, the alternative set of QoS parameters being satisfied can mean that a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative set of QoS parameters is satisfied.

[0659] For example, in case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the satisfied QoS matching the alternative QoS parameter set can indicate a third QoS parameter in the satisfied QoS matching the alternative QoS parameter set. For example, in case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the alternative QoS parameter set being satisfied can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set being satisfied.

[0660] For example, in case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a third QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied. For example, in case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied.

[0661] For example, in case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the satisfied QoS not matching the alternative QoS parameter set can indicate a third QoS parameter in the satisfied QoS not matching the alternative QoS parameter set. For example, in case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the alternative QoS parameter set not being satisfied.

[0662] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0663] According to the received at least one of the notification and the information, sending at least one of the following: the notification, the first information, the second information, the third information, the fourth information, the fifth information, the sixth information, the seventh information, the eighth information, the ninth information;

[0670] The third communication device comprises one of the following: an NEF, an AF, when the second communication device comprises a PCF.

[0671] The third communication device comprises an AF when the second communication device comprises an NEF.

[0672] It can be understood that, through the embodiment, the execution of the QoS can be synchronized between the communication devices.

[0674] Embodiment one: notifying that the QoS is satisfied

[0675] As Figure 4 shown, the embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0676] Step 1: When one of the following conditions is met, the RAN device sends a notification (such as a QoS notification or a reason for the QoS notification) to the CN device (such as an SMF), and the notification indicates that the QoS is satisfied:

[0677] The first condition is met;

[0678] At least one of the second condition and the third condition is met;

[0679] The fourth condition is met;

[0680] At least one of the fifth condition and the sixth condition is met;

[0681] At least one of the fifth condition and the third condition is met;
