[0187] It is worth noting that the technology described in the embodiments of the present application is not limited to the Long Term Evolution (LTE) / LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) system, but can also be used in other wireless communication systems, such as Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), Single-carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) and other systems. The terms "system" and "network" in the embodiments of the present application are often used interchangeably, and the technology described can be used for the systems and radio technologies mentioned above, as well as for other systems and radio technologies. The following description describes a New Radio (NR) system for illustrative purposes, and the NR terminology is used in most of the following description, but these technologies can also be applied to applications other than NR system applications, such as 6th generation (6G) systems. th Generation, 6G) communication system.

[0188] In order to perform AIoT operations, the following issues must be addressed:

[0189] Terminal devices (such as AIoT devices) are not in Radio Resource Control (RRC) state and are not connected, so mobility management is not performed. However, an AIoT task requires the operation of one or more terminal devices, and multiple rounds of signaling may be required between the reader and the core network (CN), and between the CN and the application. The following problems need to be solved.

[0190] Scenario 1: An AIoT service request, AIoT task request, or AIoT operation request (AIoT service request, AIoT task, or AIoT operation may be referred to as the first operation later) triggered by a third party operates the terminal device.

[0191] For example, consider an inventory operation. The target terminal devices are expected to be 1,000, or the exact number and quantity of the terminal devices are unknown until the inventory is complete. Therefore, the first operation takes time to execute. Consequently, there is a time lag between the notification of the first operation result and the first operation request.

[0192] Because there may be multiple first operations requested by multiple third-party applications, as shown in FIG1F , in step 3 between the second and third communication devices, there is a lack of information for the second communication device to identify which first operation result the third communication device wants to subscribe to. Because a third-party application may also request multiple first operations, as shown in FIG1F , there is a lack of information for the third communication device to determine which first operation result the received operation result is.

[0193] Scenario 2: Multiple interactions between devices

[0194] The first operation request triggered by a third party or a CN causes multiple interactions between the terminal device and the reader / writer, or between the terminal device and the AIoT function. For example, the terminal device sends an uplink message, which may then trigger the reader / writer or the AIoT function to send a downlink message as a response to the uplink message, which may then trigger the terminal device to send another uplink message as a response to the downlink message, and so on, as shown in steps 2 to 3 or steps 2 to 5 in Figure 1I. For example, the information exchanged between the terminal device and the AIoT function may be transparent to the reader / writer.

[0195] - A third-party trigger or first operation request triggers multiple interactions between the terminal device and the reader / writer, between the terminal device and the AIoT function, and between the terminal device and the third party. For example, the terminal device sends an uplink message, which may then trigger the third party to send a downlink message as a response to the uplink message, which may then trigger the terminal device to send another uplink message as a response to the downlink message, and so on, as shown in steps 2 to 3 or steps 2 to 6 in Figure 1K. For example, the information exchanged between the third party and the terminal device may be transparent to the AIoT function and the reader / writer.

[0196] A third-party trigger or triggers a first operation request that results in multiple interactions between the reader and the AIoT function, or between the reader and the third party. For example, the third party may interact with the reader multiple times through the AIoT function, and the information from these interactions may be transparent to the AIoT function.

[0197] -The first operation request triggered by CN causes multiple interactions between the reader and the AIoT function.

[0198] For example, when the first operation is an inventory operation, the corresponding operations may include discovering the terminal device and authenticating the terminal device.

[0199] For example, when the first operation is a read operation, the corresponding operations may include discovering a terminal device, authenticating a terminal device, and obtaining information about the terminal device.

[0200] As shown in step 1 of Figure 1I, multiple third parties initiate a first operation request to the CN (such as the AIoT function, NEF, etc.). The AIoT function may exchange information with the terminal device through the reader / writer. As shown in step 5 of Figure 1I, after the AIoT function receives the uplink information, it is not clear which uplink information of the first operation the uplink information is.

[0201] As shown in step 2 of Figure 1J, if multiple AIoT functions send multiple first operation messages to the same reader / writer, as shown in step 5 of Figure 1J, after the reader / writer receives the uplink message, it is unclear to which AIoT function the uplink message should be sent. As shown in step 5 of Figure 1K, after the AIoT function receives the uplink message, it is unclear to which third party the uplink message should be sent. As shown in step 7 of Figure 1K, after the AIoT function receives the downlink message, it is unclear to which reader / writer the downlink message should be sent.

[0202] Scenario 3: As shown in Figure 1L, the terminal device receives both Operation Command_A from reader A and Operation Command_B from reader B. Whether a response is required is also a question. For example, if the two operation commands are triggered by different first operation requests, both should be responded to. However, if they are triggered by the same first operation request, only one of them needs to be responded to. Therefore, the terminal device lacks the information to determine whether to respond to the received operation command.

[0203] Therefore, the following issues need to be addressed:

[0204] Question 1: It is difficult to identify which information is relevant to which first operation in the interactions between the terminal device and the reader / writer, between the terminal device and the CN (such as the AIoT function), between the terminal device and a third party, between the reader / writer and the CN, and between the CN and a third party (Application Function (AF)).

[0205] For example, when a communication device receives information related to a first operation, it is unclear which first operation the information is related to, and it is also unclear to which target communication device the uplink information should be sent.

[0206] For example, the lack of information enables the second communication device to identify which first operation information the third communication device is to subscribe to. The lack of information enables the communication device to determine which first operation information the received first operation information is related to.

[0207] For example, the terminal device still lacks information to decide whether to respond to the received operation command.

[0208] It is worth noting that the contents of different first operations may be the same or different.

[0209] - A first operation with “same content”, such as at least one of the following: the target operations involved are the same (such as inventory, command, read, write, activation, deactivation, and one or more of positioning, etc.), the target terminal device is the same (such as the same information used to indicate and / or filter terminal devices), the target operation area is the same, the designated reader is the same), and the third party requesting the first operation is the same; but it is still understood to be a different first operation.

[0210] -CN (such as AIoT function or NEF) provides AIoT operation service API. Each call to AIoT operation service can be considered as a first operation. Different calls are different first operations, regardless of whether the content of the first operation request is the same.

[0211] One solution is to determine at least one of the following using the first identifier or information used to associate with the first object:

[0212] the information associated with the first object (such as, but not limited to, at least one of: a subscription request for information of the first object, an operation result of the first object, information sent to a terminal device of the first object, information received from a terminal device in the first object, a context of the first object, etc.) about which first object the information is related;

[0213] The receiving device of the information associated with the first object (ie, the communication device to which the information associated with the first object is sent). The first object includes: a first operation, a first session, a second association, a context of the first operation, and a resource of the first operation.

[0214] The first operation includes: an AIoT task, an AIoT service, an AIoT operation service, and an AIoT operation.

[0215] The first session includes: a session and process corresponding to the first operation; and a second session corresponding to the session corresponding to the first operation.

[0216] The first association includes: an association corresponding to an AIoT task, a corresponding AIoT service, an AIoT operation service, an AIoT operation association, and an association corresponding to the first session.

[0217] In one scenario, the first communication device may receive multiple requests for the same type of operation or multiple requests for different operations. For example, the first communication device may receive three requests for Class A operations. After the first communication device receives three Class A operations, how to identify these multiple operations in the subsequent execution is a problem that needs to be solved. In addition, the first communication device may receive multiple requests for operations of different categories, such as one Class A operation (such as an inventory operation) and two Class B operations. The problem of how to identify these multiple operations still exists.

[0218] In one solution, to distinguish between multiple operations (regardless of the same or different types), a first operation (e.g., an operation) can be distinguished by a first operation identifier. Different first operations have different first operation identifiers. During the operation request process, the first communication device can obtain the first operation identifier.

[0219] In another solution, to distinguish multiple operations, the first operation (e.g., a Class A operation) can be represented by a session (e.g., the session corresponding to the first operation). The three operations can be understood as three sessions. The process of requesting, accepting, or rejecting the operation can be represented by the process of requesting, accepting, or rejecting the session. To maintain uniqueness, the session identifier can be at least one of the following: assigned by the second communication device or provided by the third communication device.

[0220] 1) The third communication device provides the second communication device with the identifier of the first session. The second communication device sends the identifier of the first session to the first communication device. When the first communication device or the second communication device is communicating with a terminal device, the identifier of the first session can be sent to the terminal device.

[0221] 2) The second communication device allocates the first session identifier and sends the first session identifier to at least one of the following: the third communication device and the first communication device. When the first communication device, the second communication device, or the third communication device is communicating with the terminal device, the first session identifier can be sent to the terminal device.

[0222] In another solution, to distinguish between multiple operations, the first operation (e.g., a Class A operation) can be represented by an association (e.g., the association corresponding to the first operation). The three operations can be understood as three associations. The process of requesting, accepting, or rejecting an operation can be represented by the process of requesting, accepting, or rejecting an association.

[0223] The first association (the association corresponding to the first operation) may exist between the first communication device and a first target communication device (eg, the second communication device).

[0346] 6)AMF access management and / or mobility management functions.

[0347] In one embodiment, backscatter or communication without active signal generation capability means backscattering on an externally provided carrier.

[0348] In one implementation, the active signal generation refers to the terminal device itself generating a signal.

[0349] Optionally, the first interface can be implemented in the following ways: Method 1, reusing the NG interface, for example, the base station supports both terminal device (new uu interface) communication and UE (traditional uu interface) communication, and adding a new IE to the mandatory information of the NG interface; Method 2, reusing the NG interface, but for example, the base station only supports terminal devices (new uu interface), at this time, a new instruction can be added to ignore the mandatory IE that already exists but is not applicable to the terminal device, such as Default Paging DRX; Method 3, introducing a new interface, such as a second NG interface.

[0350] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the second interface is a wireless interface between the first communication device, the fifth communication device, or the reader / writer and the terminal device.

[0353] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminal devices includes a terminal device identifier. In this case, a terminal device identifier can be used to specifically refer to a single terminal device. Multiple terminal device identifiers can be used to specifically refer to multiple terminal devices. It is understood that a terminal device identifier can uniquely identify the terminal device and is not shared by other terminal devices.

[0354] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminal devices includes an identifier for identifying a group of terminal devices (referred to as a group identifier). In this case, a group identifier can specifically refer to a group of terminal devices. It is understood that the group identifier of a terminal device can uniquely identify the terminal device group and is not shared by other terminal device groups.

[0355] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or screen terminal devices may not include the identification of the terminal devices. The information used to indicate and / or screen terminal devices may include matching information (which may not include the identification of the terminal devices). The matching information may not be unique to each terminal device, but may be applicable to a group of terminal devices (i.e., one or more terminal devices). Moreover, the number of terminal devices in this group may be uncertain. For example, the identification of the terminal device needs to be fed back by the terminal device before it can be determined. When the terminal device has the matching information or has information corresponding to the matching information, the terminal device can be considered as the target terminal device (i.e., the terminal device that successfully matches the information used to indicate and / or screen terminal devices, the terminal device of the first operation).

[0356] For example, in step 1, the terminal device stores matching information, such as "AAA", and the terminal device also stores "AAA", which indicates a successful match. It is easy to understand that there may be multiple terminal devices that store "AAA".

[0357] For example, in case 2, the terminal device stores information corresponding to the matching information (which may be different from the matching information, but corresponds to the matching information). For example, if the matching information is "AAA" and the terminal device stores "BBB", since AAA and BBB have a corresponding relationship, this is also a successful match. It is not difficult to understand that there may be multiple terminal devices that store "BBB".

[0358] In another embodiment, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminal devices includes a terminal device identifier. In this case, a terminal device identifier can be used to specifically identify a terminal device. Multiple terminal device identifiers can be used to specifically identify multiple terminal devices. It is understood that a terminal device identifier uniquely identifies the terminal device and is not shared by other terminal devices.

[0359] 4: In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or screen terminal devices includes information used to indicate characteristics of the terminal devices.

[0364] In one embodiment, the supported service area is different from the TA list supported by the RAN device in the related art. Therefore, the supported service area can be represented by another area information (i.e., area information different from the TA). Alternatively, the currently supported TA list (such as the supported TA List in the NG interface request message in the related art) is understood as the first TA, and the supported service area is understood as the second TA. When the RAN device supports communication with the UE and the terminal device at the same time, the first TA list and the second TA list can be provided at the same time. The second TA list is different from the first TA list. When the RAN device supports communication with the terminal device, a second TA list can be provided. That is, the information used to indicate the supported service area can be the second list.

[0544] In one embodiment, backscatter or communication without active signal generation capability means backscattering on an externally provided carrier.

[0545] In one embodiment, the active signal generation refers to the AIoT device generating the signal itself.

[0546] Optionally, the first interface can be implemented in the following ways: Method 1, reuse the NG interface, for example, the base station supports both AIoT device (new uu interface) communication and UE (traditional uu interface) communication, and adds a new IE to the mandatory information of the NG interface; Method 2, reuse the NG interface, but for example, the base station only supports AIoT devices (new uu interface), at this time, a new instruction can be added to ignore the mandatory IE that already exists but is not applicable to AIoT devices, such as Default Paging DRX; Method 3, introduce a new interface, such as a second NG interface.

[0547] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the second interface is a wireless interface between the "first communication device, the fifth communication device, or the reader / writer" and the AIoT device.

[0550] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or screen AIoT devices includes an identifier of the AIoT device. In this case, the identifier of an AIoT device can specifically refer to one AIoT device. The identifiers of multiple AIoT devices can specifically refer to multiple AIoT devices. It is not difficult to understand that the identifier of an AIoT device can uniquely identify the AIoT device and is not shared by other AIoT devices.

[0551] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or filter AIoT devices includes an identifier for identifying a group of AIoT devices (referred to as a group identifier). In this case, a group identifier can be used to specifically refer to a group of AIoT devices. It is not difficult to understand that the group identifier of an AIoT device can uniquely identify the AIoT device group and is not shared by other AIoT device groups.

[0552] 3 In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or screen AIoT devices may not include the identification of the AIoT device. The information used to indicate and / or screen AIoT devices may include matching information (which may not include the identification of the AIoT device). The matching information may not be unique to each AIoT device, but may be applicable to a group of AIoT devices (i.e., one or more AIoT devices). Moreover, the number of this group of AIoT devices may be uncertain. For example, it is necessary to feedback the identification of the AIoT device through the AIoT device before it can be determined. When the AIoT device has the matching information or has information corresponding to the matching information, the AIoT device can be considered to be the target AIoT device (i.e., the AIoT device that successfully matches the information used to indicate and / or screen the AIoT device, the AIoT device of the first operation).

[0553] For example, in example 1, the AIoT device stores matching information. For example, if the matching information is "AAA", and the AIoT device also stores "AAA", the match is successful. It is not difficult to understand that there may be multiple AIoT devices that store "AAA".

[0554] For example, in case 2, the AIoT device stores information corresponding to the matching information (which may be different from the matching information, but corresponds to the matching information). For example, if the matching information is "AAA" and the AIoT device stores "BBB", since AAA and BBB have a corresponding relationship, the match is successful. It is not difficult to understand that there may be multiple AIoT devices that store "BBB".

[0555] In another embodiment, the information used to indicate and / or screen AIoT devices includes an identifier of the AIoT device. In this case, an AIoT device identifier can be used to specifically refer to an AIoT device. Multiple AIoT device identifiers can be used to specifically refer to multiple AIoT devices. It is not difficult to understand that the identifier of an AIoT device uniquely identifies the AIoT device and is not shared by other AIoT devices.

[0556] 4: In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or screen AIoT devices includes information used to indicate characteristics of the AIoT devices.

[0561] In one embodiment, the supported service area is different from the TA list supported by the RAN device in the related art. Therefore, the supported service area can be represented by another area information (i.e., area information different from the TA). Alternatively, the currently supported TA list (such as the supported TA List in the NG interface request message in the related art) is understood as the first TA, and the supported service area is understood as the second TA. When the RAN device supports communication with the UE and the AIoT device at the same time, the first TA list and the second TA list can be provided at the same time. The second TA list is different from the first TA list. When the RAN device supports communication with the AIoT device, a second TA list can be provided. That is, the information used to indicate the supported service area can be the second list.

[0562] Optionally, the information of the Xth communication device includes at least one of the following: an identifier of the Xth communication device, an address of the Xth communication device, and information used to index the Xth communication device (such as FQDN, which can be used to index the address of the communication device).

[1103] The first object includes one of the following: a first service, a first operation, a first session, a first terminal device;

[1104] The second object includes one of the following: a first service, a first operation, a first session, a first terminal device, or a second session;

[1106] The first information includes at least one of the following: information for requesting to establish a first association, information for requesting to perform a first operation, information for requesting to establish a first object, information for requesting to establish a resource of the first object, information for requesting to establish a context of the first object, information for requesting to establish an association with the first object, a first identifier, information for associating the first object, an identifier of the first association in the second communication device, and relevant information of the first operation;

[1107] The first signaling is used to be a signaling of at least one of the following: requesting to establish a first association, requesting to perform a first operation, requesting to establish a first object, requesting to establish a first object, context and / or association; or, the first signaling includes the first information;

[1108] in,

[1109] The third signaling is a signaling for at least one of the following: requesting a first identifier, requesting information for associating with the first object, a second identifier, requesting information for associating with the first object, requesting a first operation, requesting to establish a second object, requesting to establish resources, context and / or association of the second object; or the third signaling includes the third information;

[1110] in,

[1111] The first request is used to request at least one of the following: a first identifier, used to associate information of a first object;

[1112] The second request is used to request at least one of the following: a second identifier, used to associate information of a second object.

[1113] In one embodiment, the first terminal device includes one or a group of terminal devices (a group of terminal devices includes one or more terminal devices). The terminal device can be determined by information used to indicate and / or filter terminal devices. The terminal device is, for example, an AIoT device.

[1114] In one implementation, at least one of the third signaling and the third information may be acquired from the third communication device.

[1115] In one embodiment, "sending at least one of the first signaling and the first information to the first communication device" includes: directly sending or indirectly sending (such as through AMF) at least one of the first signaling and the first information to the first communication device.

[1116] In one embodiment, when the first communication device is an intermediate device (such as a UE), the second communication device can be one of the following: a reader / writer (UE-type reader / writer, base station-type reader / writer), an access network device (such as a base station supporting a reader / writer function), a CN device (such as an AIoT function, or an AMF).

[1117] In one implementation, when the first communication device is a reader / writer, the second communication device may be a CN device (such as an AIoT function, such as AMF).

[1118] In one implementation, when the first communication device is a first CN device (AMF), the second communication device may be a second CN device (such as an AIoT function).

[1119] In one implementation, when the first communication device is a first CN device (first AIoT function), the second communication device may be a second CN device (such as a second AIoT function).

[1120] In one implementation, when the first communication device is a first CN device (AIoT function), the second communication device may be a second CN device (such as NEF).

[1121] In one implementation, the first association may be an association per first object between the first communication device and a peer device (a communication device directly connected to the first communication device, or a communication device that has established a first interface with the first communication device).

[1122] In one embodiment, the first interface includes at least one of the following:

[1123] The interface between RAN and CN is different from the NG interface in related technologies;

[1124] The interface between the first communication device (e.g., a "device supporting communication with a terminal device," a reader / writer) and the AIoT function;

[1125] The interface between the first communication device (such as "device supporting communication with terminal device", reader) and the AMF function;

[1126] The interface between the first communication device (such as "device supporting communication with terminal equipment", reader / writer) and the core network equipment.

[1127] For example, when the second communication device is indirectly connected to the first communication device or establishes a first interface, it may not be required to establish a first association with the first communication device. For example, when the second communication device is directly connected to the first communication device or establishes a first interface, it may be required to establish a first association with the first communication device.

[1128] Regardless of whether the second communication device is directly or indirectly connected to the first communication device or whether the first interface is established, the first communication device can be required to establish a first object, or establish resources for the first object (allocate resources for the first object), the context of the first object and / or the association of the first object.

[1129] It is easy to understand that, in one implementation, when the third information does not include information for associating with the first object, the second communication device may allocate information for associating with the first object.

[1130] In one embodiment, when the third information includes the second identifier of the first object, 1) in one embodiment, the second communication device may not allocate the first identifier of the first object, such as using the second identifier of the first object in the third information as the identifier of the first object (such as the first identifier of the first object is equivalent to the second identifier of the first object); 2) in another embodiment, the second communication device may also allocate the first identifier for identifying the first object. It is not difficult to understand that there is a one-to-one relationship between the allocated first identifier of the first object and the second identifier of the first object contained in the third information. The second communication device can save the one-to-one relationship between the allocated first identifier of the first object and the second identifier of the first object contained in the third information.

[1131] It is not difficult to understand that, in one implementation, when the third information does not include information for associating with the first identifier, the second communication device may allocate the first identifier.

[1132] In one embodiment, when the third information includes a second identifier, 1) in one embodiment, the second communication device may not allocate the first identifier of the first object, such as using the second identifier in the third information as the first identifier (such as the first identifier is equal to the second identifier); 2) in another embodiment, the second communication device may also allocate the first identifier. It is not difficult to understand that there is a one-to-one relationship between the allocated first identifier and the second identifier included in the third information. The second communication device can save the one-to-one relationship between the allocated first identifier and the second identifier of the first object included in the third information.

[1133] In one embodiment, performing the second action according to the acquired third information includes:

[1134] Based on the acquired third information, perform the first sub-behavior, such as at least one of the following:

[1137] Initiate at least one of the following to the first communication device: a process of establishing a first object, a process of establishing resources, context and / or association of the first object;

[1138] In an optional implementation manner of the present application, the saving or updating of the context of the first association includes saving at least one of the following in the context of the first association:

[1139] identification information of the first association in the first communication device;

[1140] identification information of the first association in the second communication device;

[1141] relevant information of the first operation;

[1142] or,

[1143] Saving or updating the context of the first object includes saving at least one of the following in the context of the first object:

[1144] The first identifier, or information used to associate with the first object;

[1145] The second identifier (the same as the first identifier or a second identifier corresponding to the first identifier), or information used to associate with the second object (the same as the information used to associate with the first object or information of the second object corresponding to the first object used to associate with the second object);

[1146] relevant information of the first operation;

[1147] a context of the first association;

[1148] information of the first communication device;

[1149] Information of the third communication device;

[1150] or,

[1151] The saving or updating of the context of the second object includes saving at least one of the following in the context of the second object;

[1152] The second identifier, or information used to associate with the second object;

[1153] The first identifier (the same as the second identifier or the first identifier corresponding to the second identifier), or the information used to associate the first object (the same as the information used to associate the second object or the information of the first object corresponding to the second object used to associate the first object).

[1154] In one embodiment, the first communication device in the information of the first communication device in the context of the first object includes a first communication device that accepts at least one of the following: a requirement to establish a first association, a requirement to execute a first operation, a requirement to establish a first object, a requirement to establish resources of the first object, a requirement to establish the context of the first object, and a requirement to establish an association of the first object.

[1155] In one implementation, the first communication device is, for example, a reader / writer.

[1156] In one implementation, the target terminal device is the terminal device of the first object.

[1157] In one implementation, the first communication device may be a first communication device that performs a first operation, establishes a first association, or establishes a first object.

[1158] In one embodiment, the relevant information of the first operation in the context of the first association or the context of the first object can be divided into one of the following: 1) relevant information of the first operation sent to the first communication device, and 2) relevant information of the first operation received. In different scenarios, the target operation in the relevant information of the first operation received may be the same as or different from the target operation in the relevant information of the first operation sent to the first communication device.

[1159] For example, the second communication device receives a request for a first operation, and the target operation is inventory, then 1) and 2) may be the same.

[1160] For example, the second communication device receives a request for a first operation, and the target operation is to read information on the target terminal device, then 1) and 2) may be the same or different.

[1161] In one embodiment, for example, the target operation in 1) may be to request the discovery of a terminal device. Specifically, the first communication device first discovers the terminal device and sends the discovered terminal device's information (e.g., identifier). The second communication device then sends a command to the discovered terminal device to read the target terminal device's information. This command may be carried by a container that is transparent to the first communication device.

[1162] In another embodiment, for example, the target operation in 1) may be a request to discover a terminal device and send a command to the discovered terminal device to read information on the target terminal device. That is, the first communication device discovers the terminal device and sends a command to the discovered terminal device to read information on the target terminal device. This command may be carried by a container that is transparent to the first communication device.

[1163] Optionally, the information for requesting to perform the first operation includes: relevant information of the first operation;

[1185] Information used to indicate the target operation (such as information used to indicate the type of the target operation);

[1186] Related information of a first container, where the first container is used to carry information sent to a terminal device;

[1187] Related information of the second container, where the second container is used to carry information sent to the fifth communication device.

[1188] In one implementation, the related information of the first operation is one of the following: related information of the first operation received by the second communication device, and the first operation generated by the second communication device.

[1189] 1) In one embodiment, the information used to indicate the target area includes: identification of one or more areas (such as areas providing AIoT services).

[1190] 2) In one embodiment, the terminal device is a terminal device for a first operation, a first service, or a first session.

For example, the information used to filter terminal devices may include an AAA field. A match is considered only if the terminal device also maintains AAA.

[1198] In one implementation, only terminal devices that match the information for indicating and / or screening terminal devices need to respond.

[1199] In one implementation, if the number of target terminal devices is small, an identifier of a single terminal device is used as information for indicating and / or screening terminal devices.

[1200] In another embodiment, if the number of target terminal devices is large (such as 1,000), using the identifier of a single terminal device as information for indicating and / or filtering terminal devices is a relatively inefficient method. At this time, an identifier for identifying a terminal device group or the information for filtering terminal devices can be used.

[1201] In one implementation, the first container is a first container generated by the second communication device or a first container received by the second communication device.

[1202] In one implementation, the second container is a second container generated by the second communication device or a second container received by the second communication device.
