Abstract

A for establishing a connection includes that: a relay terminal establishes a protocol data unit (PDU) session with a network device, the PDU session being used for relaying data of a remote terminal which has established a communication connection with the relay terminal; the relay terminal processes the PDU session based on service description information; and the relay terminal sends information of the remote terminal to the network device according to the processed PDU session. A terminal device is also provided.

Claims (40)

1. A method for establishing a connection, comprising:

establishing, by a relay terminal, a protocol data unit (PDU) session with a network device, wherein the PDU session is used for relaying data of a remote terminal which has established a communication connection with the relay terminal;

processing, by the relay terminal, the PDU session based on service description information; and

sending, by the relay terminal, information of the remote terminal to the network device according to the PDU session as processed,

wherein the method further comprises:

receiving, by the relay terminal, first information from the remote terminal, wherein the first information is used by the relay terminal to determine a Quality of Service (QoS) rule; and

processing, by the relay terminal, the PDU session according to the QoS rule;

wherein the first information comprises the service description information and communication interface PC5 QoS flow information corresponding to the service description information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the processing, by the relay terminal, the PDU session based on the service description information comprises:

modifying, by the relay terminal, the PDU session to determine a QoS flow used for relaying the data of the remote terminal corresponding to the service description information.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the processing, by the relay terminal, the PDU session based on the service description information comprises:

in response to determining that a QoS flow used for transmitting data corresponding to the service description information exists in the PDU session, determining, by the relay terminal, to transmit the data corresponding to the service description information using the QoS flow.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the service description information comprises a packet filter.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the relay terminal, a connection update request message from the remote terminal, wherein the connection update request message comprises first information.

6. A terminal device, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory for storing a computer program executable by the processor,

wherein the processor is configured to execute the computer program to:

establish a protocol data unit (PDU) session with a network device, wherein the PDU session is used for relaying data of a remote terminal which has established a communication connection with the terminal device;

process the PDU session based on service description information; and

send information of the remote terminal to the network device according to the PDU session as processed,

wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive first information from the remote terminal, wherein the first information is used by the terminal device to determine a Quality of Service (QoS) rule; and

process the PDU session according to the QoS rule;

wherein the first information comprises the service description information and communication interface PC5 QoS flow information corresponding to the service description information.

7. The terminal device of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

modify the PDU session to determine a QoS flow used for relaying data of the remote terminal corresponding to the service description information.

8. The terminal device of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

in response to determining that a QoS flow used for transmitting data corresponding to the service description information exists in the PDU session, determine to use the QoS flow to transmit the data corresponding to the service description information.

9. The terminal device of claim 6 , wherein the service description information comprises a packet filter.

10. A terminal device, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory for storing a computer program executable by the processor,

wherein the processor is configured to execute the computer program to establish a communication connection with a relay terminal to trigger the relay terminal to establish a protocol data unit (PDU) session with a network device, process the PDU session based on service description information, and send information of the terminal device to the network device according to the PDU session as processed,

wherein the processor is further configured to:

send first information to the relay terminal, wherein the first information is used by the relay terminal to determine a Quality of Service (QoS) rule used for the relay terminal to process the PDU session; and

process the PDU session according to the QoS rule;

wherein the first information comprises the service description information and communication interface PC5 QoS flow information corresponding to the service description information.

11. The terminal device of claim 10 , wherein the service description information comprises a packet filter.
