Communication method and apparatus, readable storage medium, and system
Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A terminal receives first application layer measurement configuration information from a first base station; performs quality of experience QoE measurement based on the first application layer measurement configuration information; receives a first message from a second base station, where the first message indicates whether to retain the first application layer measurement configuration information; and continues to perform QoE measurement when the first message indicates to retain the first application layer measurement configuration information; and/or releases the first application layer measurement configuration information when the first message indicates to not retain the first application layer measurement configuration information. This can reduce overheads, for example, signaling overheads or storage overheads, of application layer measurement configuration, or improve accuracy of an application layer measurement result for a specific service.

the first message indicates to not retain the first application layer measurement configuration information, and
the third message indicates to retain the first application layer measurement configuration information; and
releasing the first application layer measurement configuration information in response to the first message, or continuing to perform QoE measurement based on the first application layer measurement configuration information in response to the third message.
11. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the first message or the third message comprises at least one of:
a message indicating radio resource control (RRC) resume,
a message indicating a full configuration,
a message indicating at least one of dual connectivity (DC) release or add, or
a message indicating release of a secondary cell group (SCG) configuration.
12. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein
the first message excludes an application layer measurement configuration identifier of the first application layer measurement configuration information to indicate to release the first application layer measurement configuration information; or
the first message excludes a first indication information field to indicate to release the first application layer measurement configuration information.
13. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein
the first message or the third message further comprises information indicating a service type of the first application layer measurement configuration information.
14. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the releasing the first application layer measurement configuration information comprises:
determining, by an access stratum (AS) of the apparatus based on the first message, that the first application layer measurement configuration information is to be released, and
sending a second message to an upper layer of the AS, wherein the second message indicates that the first application layer measurement configuration information is to be released.
15. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the continuing to perform QoE measurement comprises:
determining, by an access stratum (AS) of the apparatus based on the third message, that the first application layer measurement configuration information is to be retained, and
