Abstract

One disclosure of the present specification provides a method for performing, by relay UE, communication related to PS Data Off. The method may comprise the steps of: receiving a direct communication request message from remote UE, wherein the direct communication request message includes PS Data Off status information of the remote UE; determining whether or not to establish a protocol data unit (PDU) session for the remote UE, on the basis of the PS Data Off status information of the remote UE; and transmitting a PDU session establishment request message to a network node, on the basis of the determination to the establishing of the PDU session for the remote UE.

Claims (36)

1. A method for performing communication related to Packet Switch (PS) Data Off, the method performed by a Relay User Equipment (UE) and comprising:

receiving a direct communication request message from a Remote UE,

wherein the direct communication request message includes PS Data Off state information of the Remote UE;

determining whether to establish a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session for the Remote UE, based on the PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE; and

transmitting a PDU session establishment request message to a network node, based on the PDU session for the Remote UE is determined to be established.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE includes information indicating that the PS Data Off status of the Remote UE is deactivated or that the PS Data Off status of the Remote UE is activated.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

when the PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE is different from the PS Data Off status information of the Relay UE, the PDU session for the Remote UE is determined to be established.

4. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the PDU session establishment request message includes identifier information related to the Remote UE and PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE.

5. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the direct communication request message further includes at least one of i) information related to a Data Network Name (DNN) with which the Remote UE intends to communicate, ii) PDU session type information, iii) identifier information indicating the Remote UE, and/or iv) information indicating that it is for receiving network connection service.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a PDU session establishment accept message in response to the PDU session establishment request message.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

based on that the PDU session establishment accept message is received, transmitting a direct communication accept message to the Remote UE in response to the direct communication request message.

8. A method for performing communication related to Packet Switch (PS) Data Off, the method performed by a Remote User Equipment (UE), and comprising:

transmitting a direct communication request message to a Relay UE,

wherein the direct communication request message includes PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE; and

receiving a response message to the direct communication request message from the Relay UE,

wherein the PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE is used for the Relay UE to determine establishment of a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session for the Remote UE.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

wherein the PS Data Off state information of the Remote UE includes information indicating that the PS Data Off status of the Remote UE is deactivated or information that the PS Data Off status of the Remote UE is activated.

10. The method of claim 8 ,

wherein the direct communication request message further includes at least one of i) information related to a Data Network Name (DNN) with which the Remote UE intends to communicate, ii) PDU session type information, iii) identifier information indicating the Remote UE, and/or iv) information indicating that it is for receiving network connection service.

11. A Relay User Equipment (UE) for performing communication related to Packet Switch (PS) Data Off,

at least one processor; and

at least one memory storing instructions and operably electrically connectable with the at least one processor,

wherein the operations performed based on the execution of the instructions by the at least one processor include:

receiving a direct communication request message from a Remote UE,

wherein the direct communication request message includes PS Data Off state information of the Remote UE;

determining whether to establish a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session for the Remote UE, based on the PS Data Off status information of the Remote UE; and

transmitting a PDU session establishment request message to a network node, based on the PDU session for the Remote UE is determined to be established.

12. The Relay UE of claim 11 ,

wherein the Relay UE is an autonomous driving device that communicates with at least one of a mobile terminal, a network, and an autonomous vehicle other than the Relay UE.
