[0215] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0216] The terms "first," "second," and the like in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein, and that the objects distinguished by "first" and "second" are generally of the same type, and do not limit the number of objects. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" in the specification and claims refers to at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects connected are in an "or" relationship.

[0217] 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 described technology 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 example purposes, and 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) communication systems.

[0218] In order to facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following technical points are first introduced below.

[0219] The exchange of information about AIoT devices between the reader and the core network device may occur in multiple rounds. When a core network device (such as an AIoT function) receives information about an AIoT device from a reader, it needs to determine which AIoT device the information is from. Similarly, when a reader receives information about an AIoT device from a core network device, it also needs to determine which AIoT device the information is intended for.

[0220] However, AIoT devices lack the Radio Resource Control (RRC) state and therefore cannot enter the RRC Connected state. The per-UE association between the RAN and the core network in related technologies can only be established after the UE enters the RRC Connected state. Furthermore, some mandatory IEs (Information Elements) in the per-UE association between the RAN and the core network in related technologies are not applicable to AIoT devices.

[0221] Furthermore, readers often need to operate a large number of AIoT devices, such as 1,000. Establishing a per-AIoT device association between the reader and the core network for each of these 1,000 AIoT devices requires a significant amount of resources and has significant latency overhead. For example, the time it takes for a reader to interact with a single AIoT device may be shorter than the time it takes to establish a per-AIoT device association between the reader and the core network (which can be called the first interface).

[0222] The information related to the AIoT device includes at least one of the following: information sent to the AIoT device, information received from the AIoT device. In some scenarios, the information related to the AIoT device may be carried in a container and is transparent to the reader / writer.

[0223] In the related art, the core network does not understand the identifier of the AIoT device (such as a random number, RN 16, Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) or handle) used for the interaction between the second interface (between the AIoT device and the reader). That is, even if the reader sends the relevant information of the AIoT device to the core network together with the identifier of the AIoT device of the second interface, the core network cannot determine which AIoT device the relevant information of the received AIoT device belongs to through the identifier of the AIoT device of the second interface. Since the identifier of the AIoT device of the second interface can be changed dynamically, it is very difficult to establish an association between the identifier of the AIoT device of the second interface and the identifier of the AIoT device that the core network can understand.

[0224] One solution is that when the AIoT device sends a first container, the first container contains an identifier of the AIoT device that the core network can understand (such as EPC, SUCI, or SUPI). The first container carries the information sent by the AIoT device to the core network.

[0225] In addition, the reader / writer does not understand the identification of the AIoT device in the core network, that is, the core network sends the relevant information that needs to be sent to the AIoT device to the reader / writer together with the AIoT device identification in the core network. The reader / writer cannot associate with which AIoT device through the AIoT device identification in the core network, so it cannot use the correct AIoT device identification to send the relevant information of the received AIoT device to the AIoT device.

[0226] One solution is that when the core network requests the reader to perform a first operation or create a first object, it allocates M target identifiers (such as the identifiers of AIoT devices) and sends them to the reader. The reader can exchange relevant information of up to M AIoT devices with the core network.

[0227] For example, when receiving the initial response from the first terminal (an AIoT device) or the first information that needs to be sent to the core network, the reader can select a target identifier to bind to the first terminal (such as binding the target identifier to the identifier of the first terminal on the second interface), and send the first information of the first terminal to the core network. Based on the first information of the first terminal, the core network can bind the first terminal in the core network to the target identifier.

[0228] For example, the core network sends the relevant information of the first terminal to the reader / writer, and can also send the target identifier corresponding to the first terminal. The reader / writer can send the relevant information of the first terminal to the first AIOT based on the identifier of the first terminal on the second interface bound to the target identifier.

[0229] Another solution is: when the core network requests the reader to perform the first operation or establish the first session, it also requires the reader to establish M target associations (associations per AIoT device). In another implementation, the reader may request the core network to establish M target associations. The establishment of the M target associations may be after the reader receives the first operation execution request or the request to establish the first session, before the air interface sends the instruction to operate the AIoT device, or during the operation with the AIoT device. That is, there is no need to wait until the AIoT device responds, and each time the interaction with an AIoT device is completed, the next AIoT device can be replaced, and the association of the original AIoT device may not be released. That is, the association of the AIoT device and the bound AIoT device can be changed without releasing the association of the AIoT device.

[0230] For example, when receiving the initial response from the first terminal (an AIoT device) or the first information that needs to be sent to the core network, the reader can select a target association to bind to the first terminal (such as binding the target identifier to the identifier of the first terminal on the second interface), and send the information from the first terminal to the core network through the target-associated signaling or data. The core network receives the information from the first terminal sent by the reader, and the information from the first terminal includes an identifier that can be understood by the core network. The core network can bind the first terminal in the core network to the target identifier (that is, the identifier of the first terminal that can be understood by the core network is bound to the target identifier).

[0231] For example, the core network may send information related to the first terminal to the reader / writer via target-associated signaling or data. The reader / writer may send information related to the first terminal to the first AIOT based on the identifier of the first terminal bound to the target association on the second interface.

[0232] For example, after a target association (such as an AIoT device) is bound to a first terminal, the reader sends relevant information about the first terminal (such as information obtained from the AIoT device) to the core network using target association signaling. Based on the target association information, the core network can determine which AIoT device the received information about the AIoT device originated from.

[0233] Using these two solutions, the reader can exchange information about up to M AIoT devices with the core network. For example, M = 20, which corresponds to 20 pipelines. For example, 1,000 AIoT devices can exchange information between the reader and the core network through these 20 pipelines.

[0234] Another possible solution is to pre-configure a target identifier (different from the RN16 identifier used for the air interface) on the first terminal, which is visible to the first communication device. The AIoT also sends the target identifier when sending information (but this method is very insecure and easily counterfeited and is not recommended).

There is no need to distinguish between the following information obtained from the terminal: configuration information sent by the terminal, responses to control commands to the terminal, and information read from the terminal.

[0367] Optionally, the reader / writer device may refer to a device that supports reader / writer functions (such as UE, such as base station). That is, in one embodiment, the reader / writer device may support not only reader / writer functions but also other functions; in another embodiment, the reader / writer device only supports reader / writer functions.

[0371] In one embodiment, the first interface includes at least one of the following:

[0372] Different from the NG interface in related technologies, the interface between RAN and CN is

[0373] The interface between the first communication device (e.g., a "device supporting communication with a terminal," a reader / writer) and the AIoT function;

[0374] The interface between the first communication device (such as "device supporting communication with the terminal", reader) and the AMF function;

[0375] The interface between the first communication device (such as "device supporting communication with the terminal", reader / writer) and the core network device.

[0376] In one embodiment, the device supporting communication with the terminal is one of the following:

[0377] 1) A device that supports communication with a terminal via a second interface, wherein the second interface is an access layer of an air interface supported by the terminal;

[0378] 2) Devices that support communication with terminals via wireless interfaces;

[0379] 3) Fourth communication device, such as UDM, UDR, NRF, AIoT function, and second AIoT function;

[0380] 4) AIoT function and second AIoT function;

[0381] 5) The first AIoT function: the AIoT function part directly connected to RAN.

[0382] 6)AMF access management and / or mobility management functions.

[0383] In one embodiment, backscatter or communication without active signal generation capability means backscattering on an externally provided carrier.

[0384] In one implementation, the active signal generation refers to the terminal itself generating a signal.

[0385] 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 (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 the terminal (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, such as Default Paging DRX; Method 3, introducing a new interface, such as a second NG interface.

[0386] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the second interface is a wireless interface between the "first communication device or reader / writer" and the terminal. In one embodiment, the second interface may be another air interface different from the Uu interface or the PC5 interface. In another embodiment, the second interface may be an enhancement of the Uu interface or the PC5 interface.

[0387] In one embodiment of the present application, information used to indicate and / or filter terminals (such as information used to indicate and / or filter AIoT devices) can be used to indicate and / or filter one or more terminals (such as AIoT devices).

[0388] The information used to indicate and / or screen terminals includes at least one of the following: a terminal identifier, an identifier for identifying a group of terminals (referred to as a group identifier), matching information, and information for indicating characteristics of the terminal.

[0389] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminals includes a terminal identifier. In this case, a terminal identifier can be used to specifically refer to a single terminal. Multiple terminal identifiers can be used to specifically refer to multiple terminals. It is understood that a terminal identifier can uniquely identify the terminal and is not shared by other terminals.

[0390] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminals includes an identifier for identifying a group of terminals (referred to as a group identifier). In this case, a group identifier can specifically refer to a group of terminals. It is understood that a terminal group identifier can uniquely identify the terminal group and is not shared by other terminal groups.

[0391] In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminals may not include terminal identifiers. The information used to indicate and / or filter terminals may include matching information (which may not include terminal identifiers). The matching information may not be unique to each terminal, but may apply to a group of terminals (i.e., one or more terminals). Furthermore, the number of terminals in this group may be uncertain. For example, the identification of the terminal can only be determined after the terminal has feedback. When a terminal has the matching information or information corresponding to the matching information, the terminal can be considered the target terminal (i.e., the terminal that successfully matches the information used to indicate and / or filter terminals, the terminal of the first operation).

[0392] For example, in step 1, the terminal stores matching information, such as "AAA", and the terminal also stores "AAA", which indicates a successful match. It is easy to understand that there may be multiple terminals that store "AAA".

[0393] For example, in case 2, the terminal 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 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 terminals storing "BBB".

[0394] In another embodiment, the information used to indicate and / or filter terminals includes a terminal identifier. In this case, a terminal identifier can be used to specifically refer to a single terminal. Multiple terminal identifiers can be used to specifically refer to multiple terminals. It is understood that a terminal identifier uniquely identifies the terminal and is not shared by other terminals.

[0395] 4: In one embodiment of the present application, the information used to indicate and / or screen terminals includes information used to indicate characteristics of the terminals. Since different terminals have different characteristics, the information used to indicate the characteristics of the terminals can play a role in indicating and / or screening terminals.

[0396] Optionally, the object requesting the first operation refers to: a requester requesting the first operation (also referred to as a client. The requester may be a certificate holder (such as a certificate holder of an AIoT device)). The object requesting the first operation may be one or more.

[0399] In one embodiment, the AIoT service can realize the operation requirements of the client, network or reader on the terminal (such as the first operation).

[0400] 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 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, a second TA list can be provided. That is, the information used to indicate the supported service area can be the second list.

[0401] 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 an FQDN, which can be used to index the address of the communication device).

In this case, the intermediate device is also called a reader / writer or a component of the reader / writer.

[0404] In one embodiment, the intermediate device may be an intermediate node located between the terminal 11 and other devices (such as access network devices or reader / writers), but is not limited thereto.

For example, when the first communication device sends an operation command to filter, page, or page the first terminal, it may receive responses from one or more first terminals. The initial response is the first response. Because the first communication device and the first terminal may interact multiple times, the initial response may indicate that the first terminal has been newly discovered.

[0683] The newly added first terminal may also be referred to as a newly discovered first terminal.

[0684] The response of the first terminal is a response to an operation command sent by the first communication device. The operation command may be an operation command related to the first object. For example, when the first communication device sends an operation command to filter, page, or page the first terminal, it may receive responses from one or more first terminals.

[0696] The response of the first terminal is a response to an operation command sent by the first communication device. The operation command may be an operation command related to the first object. For example, when the first communication device sends an operation command to filter, page, or page the first terminal, it may receive responses from one or more first terminals. The initial response is the first response.

[0842] In some embodiments, the first terminal is a terminal associated with the first object.

[0843] The first terminal associated with the first object may be referred to as the first terminal of the first object. In one embodiment, the information sent by the first terminal of the first object includes an identifier associated with the first object (e.g., an identifier of the first object). For example, if the response from the first terminal includes an identifier associated with the first object, then the first terminal is the first terminal of the first object.

[0844] The first terminal may be the first terminal of one or more first objects. Different first objects are terminated separately.

[0845] For example, the related identifier of the first object of the first object A is A, and the related identifier of the first object of the first object B is B. If the response of the first terminal contains the related identifier A of the first object but does not contain the related identifier B of the first object, then the first communication device can determine that the first terminal of the first object A is found, or determine that the first terminal of the first object B is not found.

[0846] The first terminal is a first terminal related to the first object. For example, the first terminal is a first terminal determined according to information in the first object for indicating or filtering the first terminal.

[0848] One or more identifiers for identifying a single first terminal;

[0851] In one embodiment, the information used to screen the first terminals is different from or does not include at least one of the following: an identifier of the first terminal (e.g., an identifier of a single first terminal, i.e., an identifier used to identify a single first terminal) and an identifier of the first terminal group. For example, if the information used to screen the first terminals includes AAA, a match is considered only if the first terminal also includes AAA.

[0852] In one implementation, only first terminals that match the information used to indicate or filter the first terminals need to respond.

[0853] In one implementation, when the number of first terminals is small, an identifier of a single first terminal is used as information for indicating and / or screening the first terminals.

[0854] In another embodiment, when there are a large number of first terminals (such as 1,000), using the identifier of a single first terminal as information for indicating or filtering the first terminals is a relatively inefficient method. In this case, an identifier for identifying the first terminal group or the information for filtering the first terminals can be used.

[0855] In some embodiments, the target association satisfies at least one of the following:

[0856] Terminal granularity association, terminal granularity context;

[0858] First object related target association;

[0859] A target association between a first communications device and a second communications device.

[0860] A target association related to the first object (such as a terminal (such as an AIoT device) level association in the first object (such as the first session)).

[0861] The association of the terminal granularity satisfies at least one of the following:

[0862] A target association can only correspond to zero or one terminal (such as the first terminal);

[0863] One target association is bound to at most one terminal (eg, the first terminal).

[0864] The context of the terminal granularity satisfies at least one of the following:

[0865] A target context can only correspond to zero or one terminal (such as the first terminal);

[0866] A target context is bound to at most one terminal (eg, the first terminal).

[0867] In one implementation, the first session is a session, association, or process corresponding to the first operation.

[0868] The target association related to the first object is shown in FIG5B below. The first object corresponds to at least one target association, and different target associations can be bound to different first terminals. After the first terminal ends, the binding with the target association can be released.

[0869] In some embodiments, the target identifier satisfies at least one of the following:

[0870] Identification of terminal granularity;

[0871] An identifier of the terminal;

[0872] One target identifier can be bound to at most one terminal;

[0873] a target identifier associated with the first object;

[0874] Used for the first communication device, the second communication device, between the first communication device and the second communication device, and / or the first interface;

[0875] The target identifier is not an identifier of the air interface of the terminal;

[0876] The target identifier does not contain any private information;

[0877] an identifier provided by the second communication device or the first communication device;

[1281] In some embodiments, the first terminal is a terminal associated with the first object.

[1282] The first terminal associated with the first object may be referred to as the first terminal of the first object. In one embodiment, the information sent by the first terminal of the first object includes an identifier associated with the first object (e.g., an identifier of the first object). For example, if the response from the first terminal includes an identifier associated with the first object, then the first terminal is the first terminal of the first object.

[1283] The first terminal may be the first terminal of one or more first objects. Different first objects are terminated separately.

[1284] For example, the related identifier of the first object of the first object A is A, and the related identifier of the first object of the first object B is B. If the response of the first terminal contains the related identifier A of the first object but does not contain the related identifier B of the first object, then the first communication device can determine that the first terminal of the first object A is found, or determine that the first terminal of the first object B is not found.

[1285] The first terminal is a first terminal related to the first object. For example, the first terminal is a first terminal determined according to information in the first object for indicating or filtering the first terminal.

For example, if the information used to screen the first terminals includes AAA, a match is considered only if the first terminal also includes AAA.

[1291] In one implementation, only first terminals that match the information used to indicate or filter the first terminals need to respond.

[1292] In one implementation, when the number of first terminals is small, an identifier of a single first terminal is used as information for indicating and / or screening the first terminals.

[1293] In another embodiment, when there are a large number of first terminals (such as 1,000), using the identifier of a single first terminal as information for indicating or filtering the first terminals is a relatively inefficient method. In this case, an identifier for identifying the first terminal group or the information for filtering the first terminals can be used.

[1379] Step 41: Obtain the target identifier bound to the first terminal;

[1380] Step 42: When the third communication device sends information related to the first terminal, it also sends a target identifier.

[1381] In an embodiment of the present application, a method for operating a communication device on a terminal is provided. By exchanging terminal (such as an AIoT device) related information between communication devices, the reader and the core network can understand the identification of the AIoT device.

[1383] For example, referring to FIG5A , a first communication device (e.g., a reader / writer) and a second communication device (e.g., an AIoT function or AF) exchange information related to a first object. Since the first communication device that performs the behavior related to the first object can be one or more, for example, first communication device A and first communication device B. Therefore, the relationship between the first object and the first object, between the first communication device and the second or third communication device, or between the associations, contexts, and / or resources of the first interface, can be one-to-one or one-to-many.

[1384] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 5B and 6, information related to the first object (including information related to the first terminal) is exchanged between the first communication device (such as a reader / writer) and the second communication device (such as an AIoT function or AF). A first object may be established between the first communication device and the second communication device, or an association, context and / or resource of the first object between the first communication device and the second communication device or at the first interface. During the establishment or modification of the first object, association, context and / or resource, the first communication device or the second communication device may assign one or more target identifiers, or establish one or more target associations.

[1385] A first communication device (such as a reader / writer) may bind a first terminal to a target identifier or a target association, and ensure and / or support the interaction of information related to the first terminal based on the target identifier or target association bound to the first terminal.

[1386] As shown in FIG5B , the first communication device and the second communication device use the target association corresponding to the first terminal_1 (such as the information element, signaling or data of the target association) to send or receive information related to the first terminal_1. The same applies to the first terminal_2 and the first terminal_3, which will not be repeated here.

[1387] As shown in Figure 6, the first communication device and the second communication device send or receive information related to the first terminal_1, and send or receive the target identifier corresponding to the first terminal_1.
