A service data flow transmission method, a communication apparatus, and a communication system. The method includes: a user plane network element receives characteristic information of a service data flow and QoS information of the service data flow, where the characteristic information of the service data flow indicates traffic characteristic information corresponding to different time slices of the service data flow in a time period, and the QoS information indicates QCIs corresponding to the different time slices; determines, based on the characteristic information of the service data flow, a first time slice corresponding to a data packet of the service data flow; and sends the data packet to an access network device based on the first time slice corresponding to the data packet of the service data flow and a QCI corresponding to the first time slice.

Various embodiments provide a resource allocation method and an apparatus. In those embodiments, a terminal device obtains a first parameter indicating a maximum service data volume to be provided by an access network device for a first service in a first time length; and determines, based on the maximum service data volume, a resource of a media access control protocol data unit MAC PDU, the resource being occupied by buffered data of the first service. In those embodiments, the terminal device determines, based on the maximum service data volume of the first service, the resource of the MAC PDU. Compared with a conventional method, the maximum service data volume of the first service is considered. This helps improve reasonableness of allocating the resource of the MAC PDU to the data of the first service.

A signaling transmission method and device, a signaling reception method and device, a storage medium and a terminal are provided.

A method, apparatus, and computer program product provide for generating and providing a signaling indicator to manage quality of service notifications in a network. In the context of a method, the method receives a signaling indicator from a user device. The signaling indicator includes data associated with one or more preferences of the user device. The method further receives a quality of service notification associated with the user device. The method also determines, based on the signaling indicator, whether to provide the quality of service notification to the user device.

A wireless communication network manages a wireless access node. The wireless access node wirelessly exchanges user data with wireless User Equipment (UEs) and exchanges the user data with one or more network elements. The wireless access node generates status indicators that characterize wireless access node operation during the user data exchanges. An Element Management System (EMS) determines EMS load based on EMS operation and transfers load data that indicates the EMS load for delivery to the wireless access node. The wireless access node receives the load data transferred by the EMS. The wireless access node identifies individual priorities for individual ones of the status indicators. The wireless access node determines individual reporting times for the individual ones of the status indicators based on the load data and the individual priorities. The wireless access node transfers the individual ones of the status indicators to the EMS per the individual reporting times.

Disclosed are an information transmission method and device, and a computer readable storage medium. The method comprises: an edge node sends a radio capability exposure request to a target transmission node at a radio access network side; the edge node receives radio capability exposure response information responded by the target transmission node. Specifically, the edge node sends the radio capability exposure request to the target transmission node at the radio access network side by means of an Xm interface, and receives the radio capability exposure response information responded by the target transmission node by means of the Xm interface or User Plane Functionality (UPF). In the solution of the present invention, the edge node can directly send the radio capability exposure request to the target transmission node at the radio access network side, and the target transmission node can also directly send the capability exposure response information to the edge node without the need of a core network, and thus better solving the problems in the related art that an information transfer delay exists in a radio capability exposure mode and the burden of core network processing is increased.
