Disclosed is a 5.sup.th generation (5G) or a pre-5G communication system provided to support a higher data transmission rate than that of post-4.sup.th generation (4G) communication systems, such as long term evolution (LTE). A method of operating a network node in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a plurality of first network nodes, network data, generating first recommendation operation information for a second network node based on the network data, and transmitting, to the second network node, a first analysis result message including the first recommendation operation information.

A data transmission method, apparatus, device, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The data transmission method of the present disclosure includes receiving data sent by a User Equipment UE, determining a Session Management Function SMF, and forwarding the data to the SMF, wherein after the SMF receives the data, the SMF forwards the data to a User Plane Function UPF.

A communication device communicates a radio frame including a preamble and a data field of a physical layer (PHY). The preamble includes an L-STF (Legacy Short Training Field), an L-LTF (Legacy Long Training Field), an L-SIG (Legacy Signal Field), an EHT-SIG-A (Extremely High Throughput Signal A Field), an EHT-STF, and an EHT-LTF, and the EHT-SIG-A includes a field indicating a standard that the radio frame complies with.

A method at an Access and mobility Management Function (AMF) for facilitating a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session procedure for a User Equipment (UE) in a 5th Generation System (5GS) network, wherein the 5GS network is interworking with an Evolved Packet System (EPS) network, and a Packet Data Network Gateway Control plane Function+Session Management Function (PGW-C+SMF) supporting the interworking is selected for managing the PDU session. The method comprises determining whether the PDU session supports interworking with the EPS network, based on at least one of a capability of the UE and a subscription data of the UE; and sending an indication which indicates whether the PDU session supports interworking with the EPS network to the PGW-C+SMF.
