Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and system for reselecting or handing over to a broadcast multicast cell. The method includes the following steps: broadcasting, by an MBMS cell, a service area identity list of a service area to which the MBMS cell belongs; determining, by a UE, whether the service area identity list includes a service area identity corresponding to a service; if the service area identity list includes service area identity corresponding to the service, setting, by the UE, a cell reselection priority of a frequency of an MBMS cell to the highest. According to the present invention, a UE can identify whether a cell capable of providing services that the UE is receiving or is interested in around the UE, so that the cell can learn which neighboring cells are MBMS cells and what services are being broadcast in MBMS cells if such MBMS cells are available.

Abstract:
A wireless communication method and apparatus. The method includes sending, with a first subscriber identity a first message to a first access network device, the first message requesting establishment or resumption of a second radio resource control (RRC) connection with the second subscriber identity, the first message including auxiliary information indicating to determine to release or deactivate a first RRC connection established with the first subscriber identity, and the second RRC connection being a connection established with the second subscriber identity, and receiving, with the first subscriber identity, a second message from the first access network device and that indicates to release or deactivate the first RRC connection, where the terminal device is in an RRC connected state with the first subscriber identity and in an RRC idle state or an RRC deactivated state with the second subscriber identity.
Abstract:
This application provides a communication method and a communication apparatus, to implement transmission of a cell coverage state indicator in a centralized unit-distributed unit (CU-DU) split architecture, which improves network performance. The communication method includes: A distributed unit DU of a first network device determines a first coverage indicator. The DU of the first network device sends the first coverage indicator and a first identifier to a centralized unit CU of the first network device, where the first coverage indicator includes one or more of the following: a cell coverage state of a first cell, a cell deployment status indicator of the first cell, and cell replacing info of the first cell, and the first identifier is used to identify the first cell.
Abstract:
A communication method and a related apparatus provide for differences between internal resources of a base station to support different slice service capabilities on a RAN side. In the communication method, when a first distributed unit (DU) sets up a connection to a first central unit (CU) but the first CU does not support a first slice, and a second CU supports the first slice, the first DU may establish a connection to the second CU based on transport layer information of the second CU and an identifier or a name of the second CU, or the second CU may update the connection between the first CU and the first DU to a connection between the second CU and the first DU. A difference between internal resources of a base station can be more fully utilized to support different slice service capabilities on a RAN side and improve flexibility and coverage of providing a slice service for user equipment.
Abstract:
This application provides a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A first node receives a beam set and first indication information from a second node, where the beam set includes at least one beam. The first node determines, based on the first indication information, identification information of at least one beam that needs to be forwarded by the first node in the beam set. The first node forwards, based on the identification information of the at least one beam that needs to be forwarded by the first node in the beam set and receiving time information of the at least one beam that needs to be forwarded by the first node, the at least one beam that needs to be forwarded by the first node. The method is applied to a smart repeater, to implement smart beam forwarding by the repeater.
Abstract:
This application provides a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: a terminal device receives conditional handover configuration information from a first network device, where the configuration information is used to configure a trigger condition of a conditional handover, and the first network device is a network device to which a serving cell currently accessed by the terminal device belongs. The terminal device determines a first target cell based on the conditional handover configuration information, where the first target cell is a cell in at least one candidate target cell that satisfies the trigger condition.
Abstract:
A data sending method includes: receiving, by a terminal device, configuration information sent by a network device, where the configuration information is used to configure a non-scheduling resource; and starting, by the terminal device when a condition is met, a first timer, where the non-scheduling resource is not used for sending uplink data within duration of the first timer. According to the method, a timer is set on the terminal device, and the timer is used to instruct the terminal device whether to send data on a non-scheduling resource. Therefore, a data sending success rate and a communication latency of the terminal device can be effectively balanced.
Abstract:
A communication method, apparatus, and system are disclosed, to provide a mechanism of mobility, of a terminal device that supports private networks, between the private networks. The method includes: a first access network device determines, based on a first list, a target cell that belongs to a target first network, where the first list includes an identity of at least one first network to which a terminal device subscribes. The first access network device sends a first message to a second access network device that serves the target cell, the first message carries a second list, the second list is used to enable the second access network device to determine the identity of the at least one first network to which the terminal device subscribes.
