A service transmission method is provided. A first base station, which establishes an RRC connection with a UE, sends a request message to a second base station which is at least one of base stations serving the UE, where the request message includes service information, where the service information includes QoS information of a service and/or configuration information of an RB, and the request message instructs the second base station to perform resource configuration according to service information. The first base station sends a configuration message to the UE, where the configuration message includes configuration list information of the RB and/or cell information of the offload base station.

Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of establishing an Internet connection. For example, a server may perform operations including storing relay account information corresponding to at least one relay station to provide Internet access, and client account information of at least one client, the client account information comprising credit information indicating a credit balance of the client; processing a connection request received from a wireless station via the relay station, the connection request to request an Internet connection via the relay station, the connection request comprising a client identifier of the client; sending to the wireless station via the relay station connection establishment information to establish the Internet connection via the relay station; and updating the credit balance based on usage information from the relay station, the usage information indicating a usage of the Internet connection by the wireless station.

The present invention relates to multi-slice, multi-service-instance communication services, particularly to multi-slice, multi-service-instance assurance for Service level Agreement (SLA) and Quality of Service (QoS) requirement fulfilment. The invention presents a device for managing a service related to at least two network slices and to a corresponding method. The device is configured to obtain management data for the service from at least one of the slices, in particular one or more of the following: performance management (PM) data for the service, fault management (FM) data for the service, analytics data about the service. The device is further configured to evaluate at least one assurance indicator of the service based on the management data. Finally, the device is also configured to generate further management data, in particular configuration management (CM) data for modification of the service and/or at least one of the slices, according to the evaluation result.

A master RAN node (1) sends, to a control plane function (5) in a core network (4), a modification request for modification of a first PDU session already established between a radio terminal (3) and a user plane function (6) in the core network (4). The modification request implicitly or explicitly indicates that PDU session split is needed for the first PDU session. The modification request causes the control plane function (5) to control the user plane function (6) to move a specific one or more QoS flows of a plurality of QoS flows associated with the first PDU session from a first tunnel between the user plane function (6) and the master RAN node (1) to a second tunnel between the user plane function (6) and a secondary RAN node (2). This contributes, for example, to implementing PDU session split in a radio communication network.

Embodiments provide an aggregate rate control method, a device, and a system. A gateway switch receives a flow entry and a link table from a software-defined networking (SDN) controller. The flow entry includes at least a match field and a flow-entry instruction, and the link table includes at least a packet processing operation. The gateway switch parses to obtain header information of a received target data packet, and matches the header information with the match field in the flow entry. When the header information matches the match field in the flow entry, a link instruction is executed in the flow-entry instruction in the flow entry. The packet processing operation in the link table is performed, and the packet processing operation is used to discard or buffer the target data packet when a bit rate of an aggregate service flow is greater than a specified maximum aggregate rate.

A base station and a master communication apparatus are provided. The master communication apparatus belongs to a mobile communication system. The mobile communication system includes a plurality of data transmission apparatuses. Each of the data transmission apparatuses has a transmission path with a user equipment individually. Each transmission path has a priority degree. The master communication apparatus selects one of the transmission paths as the primary path. For each of a plurality of QoS degrees, the master communication apparatus selects a set of the transmission paths as at least one duplication path of the QoS degree according to the priority degrees and/or a plurality of communication service statuses. The master communication apparatus configures a MAC logic channel parameter and configures at least one PDCP parameter. The master communication apparatus transmits the MAC logic channel parameter and the at least one PDCP parameter to the user equipment.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for UPF control with coexistence of policy control and packet filters dynamically generated at the SMF. For example, if the SMF obtains an event subscription with traffic descriptors from another entity, and if there is no installed PDR with the same traffic descriptor, the SMF may construct a PDR with an action according to the subscribed event. The SMF may configure the UPF with the constructed PDR. In certain embodiments, to construct the PDR, the SMF may copy the PDR that would have previously matched the incoming traffic described by the traffic descriptor in the notification subscription, and associates the PDR with a higher priority, the traffic descriptor and a notification action according to the subscribed event. To configure the UPF, the SMF may provide the PDR with the higher priority, the received traffic descriptor, and the notification action, according to some embodiments.

Techniques and devices for service-specific tagging of data by an application processor (AP) of a user equipment device (UE). A first indication may be sent from the UE to a baseband processor (BB) of the UE of one or more quality of service preferences for an upcoming data session, and the BB may configure one or more layers of the BB according to the quality of service preferences. The BB may further communicate with a network to establish protocols for the quality of service preferences. The BB may determine one or more network conditions, and may transmit feedback from the BB to the AP related to the determined network conditions. In response, the AP may send a second indication of one or more updated quality of service preferences to the BB based at least in part on the feedback received from the BB.

Methods and apparatuses for handling invalid Radio Resource Control (RRC) message for sidelink communication in a wireless communication system are disclosed herein. In one method, the first User Equipment (UE) establishes a PC5 unicast link or a PC5-RRC connection with a second UE, wherein the PC5 unicast link or the PC5-RRC connection is associated with a destination identity of the second UE. The first UE transmits a Sidelink User Equipment (UE) Information message to a network node to request a sidelink configuration for a sidelink Quality of Service (QoS) flow, wherein the Sidelink UE Information message includes the destination identity of the second UE and an identity of the sidelink QoS flow. The first UE receives a RRC Reconfiguration message from the network node, wherein the RRC Reconfiguration message includes the sidelink configuration. The first UE transmits a RRC message to the network node to indicate a configuration failure if the first UE is unable to comply with the sidelink configuration included in the RRC Reconfiguration message.
