Method for transmitting and receiving control message in communication system and apparatus for the same
View Patent ↗An operation method of a UE in a communication system includes receiving, from a base station, a security mode command message including information requesting reporting of capability information and security configuration information; identifying the security configuration information included in the security mode command message; and transmitting, to the base station, a security mode complete message including the capability information requested by the security mode command message.
1. An operation method of a base station in a communication system, the operation method comprising:
transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a security mode command message including information requesting reporting of capability information and security configuration information;
receiving, from the UE, a security mode complete message including the capability information requested by the security mode command message; and
establishing a bearer for the UE,
wherein when the base station includes a first node performing a control plane (NB-CU-CP) function, a second node performing a user plane (NB-CU-UP) function, and a third node performing a NB-DU function, in the establishing of the bearer, the third node transmits to the first node a first message including general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel information.
2. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the security mode command message and the security mode complete message is a radio resource control (RRC) message.
3. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the security configuration information indicates a ciphering algorithm and an integrity protection algorithm used in communication between the UE and the base station.
4. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the security mode command message requests reporting of capability information for one or more radio access technologies (RATs), and the security mode complete message includes the capability information for the one or more RATs.
5. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the GTP tunnel information includes a tunnel endpoint identifier (TEID) and an internet protocol (IP) address for the third node.
6. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the first message is an F1 setup request message or a GNB-DU configuration update message.
7. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein communication between the first node and the second node is performed using a control message according to an E1 application protocol (E1AP), communication between the first node and the third node is performed using a control message according to an F1 application protocol (F1AP), and communication between the second node and the third node is performed using a control message according to the F1AP.
8. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the establishing of the bearer further comprises transmitting, by the first node, a bearer context setup request message including the GTP tunnel information to the second node.
9. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the establishing of the bearer further comprises transmitting, by the first node, a UE context setup request message including the GTP tunnel information to the third node through the second node.
