[0003] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a notification method, apparatus and communication device. BACKGROUND

[0004] A Quality of Service (QoS) profile of a QoS flow can contain PDU Set QoS parameters and packet 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 QoS parameters. Generally, PDU Set and packet are two granularities, and the QoS processing of the two granularities cannot be applied at the same time. Some of the above QoS parameters may be satisfied and some may not be satisfied. Which QoS parameters are satisfied, the QoS of the QoS flow can be determined to be satisfied, and which QoS parameters are not satisfied, the QoS of the QoS flow can be determined to be not satisfied. It can be seen that how to synchronize the QoS execution situation is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. SUMMARY

[0279] 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.

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.

[0289] 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 adapt to the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0290] 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 adapt to the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0338] In an embodiment, the notification is sent in a case where the first condition is satisfied, and the notification comprises information indicating that the QoS is not satisfied.

[0339] The application can be understood as activation. The PDU Set QoS processing is applied can be understood as the PDU Set QoS processing is activated. The PDU Set QoS processing is not applied can be understood as the PDU Set QoS processing is not activated.

[0340] In an embodiment, the notification is sent in a case where the second condition and the third condition are satisfied, and the notification comprises information indicating that the QoS is satisfied.

[0345] The second condition comprises: the PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the uplink direction; and the third condition comprises: the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied in the downlink direction.

[0371] the second QoS parameter in the second direction is not satisfied, or the second QoS parameter in the second direction is not satisfied;

[0372] wherein

[0373] 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.

[0374] 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.

[0375] It is not difficult to understand that the eighth condition and the ninth condition can be the following four:

[0376] 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;

[0377] 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 not applied in the downlink direction.

[0378] The eighth condition comprises that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied in the uplink direction; and the ninth condition comprises that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied in the downlink direction.

[0379] 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 not applied in the downlink direction.

[0380] By means of at least one of the seventh condition, the eighth condition, and the ninth condition, it can be realized that, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied or not applied, the QoS not being met is informed based on different conditions, so as to indicate which QoS is not met in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, and to indicate which QoS parameter is not met in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, so that the target device informed can know the actual execution of the QoS, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to adapt to the QoS, and to guarantee the transmission performance.

[0381] Optionally, the fourth condition comprises that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, and further comprises at least one of:

[0382] the satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter;

[0383] the first QoS parameter is not met;

[0384] the first PDU Set QoS parameter is not met;

[0385] the satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter;

[0386] the second QoS parameter is met or can be met.

[0387] Optionally, the fifth condition comprises that the PDU Set QoS processing in the first direction is applied, and the fifth condition further comprises at least one of:

[0388] 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;

[0389] the first QoS parameter in the first direction is not met, or the first QoS parameter is not met in the first direction;

[0390] The first PDU Set QoS parameter in the first direction is not satisfied, or the first QoS parameter in the first direction is not satisfied;

[0391] The satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter in the first direction, or the satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter in the first direction;

[0392] The second QoS parameter in the first direction is satisfied or can be satisfied, or the second QoS parameter in the first direction is satisfied or can be satisfied;

[0393] Or

[0394] The sixth condition includes that the PDU Set QoS processing in the second direction is applied, and the sixth condition further includes at least one of the following:

[0395] The satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter in the second direction, or the satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter in the second direction;

[0397] 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;

[0398] 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;

[0399] The second QoS parameter in the second direction is satisfied or can be satisfied, or the second QoS parameter in the second direction is satisfied or can be satisfied;

[0400] Wherein,

[0401] 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.

[0402] 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 includes information indicating that the QoS is satisfied.

[0403] It is not difficult to understand that the logic here is that under the premise that 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.

[0404] 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.

[0405] It is not difficult to understand that, under the premise that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, if the first QoS parameter in the first parameter set is not met, the QoS is notified to be not met.

[0406] By the fourth condition, the fifth condition, and the sixth condition, at least one of which can be implemented in a case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, one way is to notify that the QoS is met, and another way is to notify that the QoS is not met, and in combination with the PDU Set QoS processing being applied and not being 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.

[0407] Optionally, the fourth condition further includes at least one of the following:

[0411] In a case that the PDU Set QoS processing is uplink PDU Set QoS processing, the terminal or the first object supports PDU Set processing or supports identification of PDU Set information;

[0412] Among them,

[0413] The first object includes at least one of the following: a first QoS flow, a first radio bearer.

[0414] 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 include a replaceable QoS parameter set.

[0415] The replaceable QoS parameter set can also be referred to as a replaceable QoS profile.

[0416] 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.

[0417] In one implementation, the first QoS flow is a certain QoS flow.

[0418] In one implementation, the first radio bearer is a radio bearer mapped from the first QoS flow or a certain radio bearer.

[0419] 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.

[0420] Since the above fourth condition further includes the above at least one, the target device can determine a more detailed actual execution of the QoS, so as to better adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to adapt to the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0421] Optionally, the tenth condition includes at least one of the following:

[0422] The satisfied QoS does not match at least one of the following: the first QoS parameter, any alternative QoS parameter set, the alternative QoS parameter set with the lowest priority, the third QoS parameter in the third parameter set;

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

[0425] At least one of the following is not satisfied: the first PDU Set QoS parameter, the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set;

[0426] The satisfied QoS does not match at least one of the following: the first PDU Set QoS parameter, the PDU Set QoS parameter in the third parameter set;

[0427] The satisfied QoS matches at least one of the following: the second QoS parameter set, one or more alternative QoS parameter sets, the fourth QoS parameter in the fourth parameter set;

[0428] The following at least one 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;

[0429] The third parameter set is one of the following: any alternative QoS parameter set, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set;

[0430] The fourth parameter set is one or more alternative QoS parameter sets.

[0431] The tenth condition can be used to send the fourth information or the first information in the case that some QoS parameters are satisfied and some QoS parameters are not satisfied, to indicate the specific unmatched or unsatisfied parameters, and to indicate the specific matched or satisfied QoS parameters, so that the target device can understand the actual execution of the QoS based on the first information, so as to adjust the QoS requirement or the throughput to adapt to the QoS and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0439] The first object includes at least one of the following: a first QoS flow, a first radio bearer.

[0440] The first object has an alternative QoS parameter set, which can be understood as that the QoS profile or QoS parameter of the first object contains at least one alternative QoS parameter set.

[0441] The alternative QoS parameter set can also be referred to as an alternative QoS profile.

[0442] 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.

[0443] 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.

[0458] wherein,

[0459] the first object comprises at least one of the following: a first QoS flow, a first radio bearer.

[0466] wherein,

[0467] The third parameter set is one of: an arbitrary replaceable QoS parameter set, a lowest priority replaceable QoS parameter set.

[0468] 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.

[0511] If the first QoS parameter is the PDU Set QoS parameter and the GFBR, when the GFBR does not meet and the PDU Set QoS parameter meets, at this time, the satisfied QoS does not match the first QoS parameter, the first condition is met, and in the case that the first condition is met, the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied. If the first QoS parameter is the PDU Set QoS parameter, when the GFBR does not meet and the PDU Set QoS parameter meets, at this time, the satisfied QoS matches the first QoS parameter, the first condition is not met, and the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, but the requirement of the GFBR needs to be reduced.

[0523] In an embodiment, a QoS parameter other than a PDU Set granularity QoS parameter comprises at least one of the following: PDB, PER, GFBR.

[0524] It is not difficult to understand that, since the second QoS parameter is specifically limited, this can achieve 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 adapt to the QoS, and guarantee the transmission performance.

[0628] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the notification is sent and the notification comprises information used to indicate that the QoS is satisfied, which can indicate that the first QoS parameter is satisfied. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the notification is sent and the notification comprises information used to indicate that the QoS is satisfied, which can indicate that the second QoS parameter is satisfied.

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

[0630] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the satisfied QoS matching the replaceable QoS parameter set can indicate a third QoS parameter in the satisfied QoS matching the replaceable QoS parameter set.

[0631] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the replaceable QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a third QoS parameter in the replaceable QoS parameter set not being satisfied.

[0632] For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied, the satisfied QoS not matching the replaceable QoS parameter set can indicate a third QoS parameter in the satisfied QoS not matching the replaceable QoS parameter set. For example, in the case that the PDU Set QoS processing is not applied, the replaceable QoS parameter set not being satisfied can indicate a fourth QoS parameter in the replaceable QoS parameter set not being satisfied.

[0633] It can be understood that, through the embodiment, the execution of the QoS can be synchronized between the communication devices.

[0634] Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 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 FIG. 3, the method comprises the following steps:

[0635] In step 301, the second communication device performs a second operation, and the second operation comprises one of the following:

[0636] 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;

[0638] The notification comprises: information indicating that the QoS is satisfied, or information indicating that the QoS is not satisfied;

[0639] 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;

[0645] The seventh information is used to indicate at least one of the following: the satisfied QoS matches the second QoS parameter; the second QoS parameter is satisfied or can be satisfied;

[0647] The ninth information is used to indicate that the PDU Set QoS processing is applied or not applied;

[0648] Wherein,

[0649] The third parameter set is one of the following: any alternative QoS parameter set, the lowest priority alternative QoS parameter set;

[0650] The fourth parameter set is one or more alternative QoS parameter sets.

[0651] The receiving the notification comprises: receiving the notification from the first communication device.

[0652] 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).

[0653] 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.

[0654] 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.

[0655] 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.

[0656] 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.

[0657] 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.

[0658] 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.

[0659] 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.

[0660] 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.

[0661] 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.

[0662] 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.

[0663] 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.

[0664] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0665] 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;

[0671] The third communication device comprises a PCF when the second communication device comprises a SMF.

[0672] The third communication device comprises one of the following: a NEF, an AF, when the second communication device comprises a PCF.

[0673] The third communication device comprises an AF when the second communication device comprises a NEF.

[0674] It is not difficult to understand that through the embodiment, the execution of the QoS can be synchronized between the communication devices.

[0675] The embodiment is a second communication device side implementation corresponding to the embodiment shown in FIG. 2. The implementation of the embodiment can refer to the implementation of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, which will not be repeated here and can achieve the same beneficial effects.
