Abstract

Provided is a method, network device and system for implementing data processing. The method includes: transmitting, by a first network device, a request message to a second network device; feeding, by the second network device, a response message back to the first network device according to the request message received from the first network device; receiving, by the first network device, the response message fed back by the second network device, and transmitting an indication message to a third network device; and receiving, by the third network device, the indication message transmitted by the first network device, and processing data according to the indication message. The embodiments of the present application implement data splitting and handover processing for a next-generation mobile communication technology.

Claims (38)

1. A communication method, comprising:

receiving, by a core network, a first message transmitted by a primary base station, the first message comprising first information of a first protocol data unit (PDU) session, the first information indicating a splitting of the first PDU session into a split PDU session, wherein the first information of the first PDU session comprises a PDU session identifier of the first PDU session and next generation (NG) interface downlink tunnel endpoint information; and

transmitting, by the core network, a second message in response to receiving the first message, the second message comprising second information of the first PDU session, wherein the second information indicates acceptance of the splitting of the first PDU session by the core network, and comprises at least one quality of service (QoS) flow identifier associated with the split PDU session.

2. The communication method of claim 1 , wherein

the first message further comprises one or more quality of service (QoS) flow identifiers corresponding to the NG interface downlink tunnel endpoint information.

3. The communication method of claim 1 , wherein the second information of the first PDU session comprises the PDU session identifier associated with the split PDU session.

4. The communication method of claim 1 , wherein:

the first message further comprises third information of a second PDU session, the third information indicating a splitting of the second PDU session, and

the second message further comprises fourth information of the second PDU session, the fourth information indicating rejection of the splitting of the second PDU session, and comprising a PDU session identifier associated with the second PDU session.

5. A core network, comprising:

at least one processor of a transceiver, configured to:

receive a first message transmitted by a primary base station, the first message comprising first information of a first protocol data unit (PDU) session, the first information indicating a splitting of the first PDU session into a split PDU session, wherein the first information of the first PDU session comprises a PDU session identifier of the first PDU session and next generation (NG) interface downlink tunnel endpoint information; and

transmit a second message in response to receiving the first message, the second message comprising second information of the first PDU session, wherein the second information indicates acceptance of the splitting of the first PDU session by the core network, and comprises at least one quality of service (QoS) flow identifier associated with the split PDU session.

6. The core network of claim 5 , wherein

the first message further comprises one or more quality of service (QoS) flow identifiers corresponding to the NG interface downlink tunnel endpoint information.

7. The core network of claim 5 , wherein the second information of the first PDU session comprises a first PDU session identifier associated with the split PDU session.

8. The core network of claim 5 , wherein:

the first message further comprises third information of a second PDU session, the third information indicating a splitting of the second PDU session, and

the second message further comprises fourth information of the second PDU session, the fourth information indicating rejection of the splitting of the second PDU session, and comprising a PDU session identifier associated with the second PDU session.

9. A communication method, comprising:

transmitting, by a primary base station to a core network, a first message, the first message comprising first information of a first protocol data unit (PDU) session, the first information indicating a splitting of the first PDU session into a split PDU session, wherein the first information of the first PDU session comprises a PDU session identifier of the first PDU session and next generation (NG) interface downlink tunnel endpoint information; and

receiving, by the primary base station from the core network, a second message in response to the first message, the second message comprising second information of the first PDU session, wherein the second information indicates acceptance of the splitting of the first PDU session by the core network, and comprises at least one quality of service (QoS) flow identifier associated with the split PDU session.

10. The communication method of claim 9 , wherein

the first message further comprises one or more quality of service (QoS) flow identifiers corresponding to the NG interface downlink tunnel endpoint information.

11. The communication method of claim 9 , wherein the second information of the first PDU session comprises the PDU session identifier associated with the split PDU session.

12. The communication method of claim 9 , wherein:

the first message further comprises third information of a second PDU session, the third information indicating a splitting of the second PDU session, and

the second message further comprises fourth information of the second PDU session, the fourth information indicating rejection of the splitting of the second PDU session, and comprising a PDU session identifier associated with the second PDU session.

13. A primary base station, comprising:

at least one processor of a transceiver, configured to:

transmit a first message to a core network, the first message comprising first information of a first protocol data unit (PDU) session, the first information indicating a splitting of the first PDU session into a split PDU session, wherein the first information of the first PDU session comprises a PDU session identifier of the first PDU session and next generation (NG) interface downlink tunnel endpoint information; and

receive, from the core network, a second message in response to the first message, the second message comprising second information of the first PDU session, wherein the second information indicates acceptance of the splitting of the first PDU session by the core network, and comprises at least one quality of service (QoS) flow identifier associated with the split PDU session.

14. The primary base station of claim 13 , wherein

the first message further comprises one or more quality of service (QoS) flow identifiers corresponding to the NG interface downlink tunnel endpoint information.

15. The primary base station of claim 13 , wherein the second information of the first PDU session comprises the first PDU session identifier associated with the split PDU session.

16. The primary base station of claim 13 , wherein:

the first message further comprises third information of a second PDU session, the third information indicating a splitting of the second PDU session, and

the second message further comprises fourth information of the second PDU session, the fourth information indicating rejection of the splitting of the second PDU session, and comprising a PDU session identifier associated with the second PDU session.
