Abstract
UE (50) includes a mapping information retaining unit (57) that retains association information in which a type of EPS bearer configured in 4G and a type of QoS flow that corresponds to the service quality and is configured in 5G are associated, and a handover executing unit (59) that acquires, by using the association information, association between the EPS bearer configured by the UE (50) and the QoS flow configured by the UE (50), and executes handover between the EPS bearer and the QoS flow associated with each other.
Claims5
A terminal that executes handover between a first radio communication system, 4G, and a second radio communication system, 5G, the terminal comprising:
- a memory that non-transitorily retains, before the terminal receives a handover request between a bearer and a flow, association information in which a type of the bearer configured in the first radio communication system and a type of the flow that corresponds to service quality and is configured in the second radio communication system are associated;
- and
- a processor that executes, by using the association information, handover between the bearer and the flow associated with each other,
- wherein the processor receives the association information using a PDU session Establishment/Modification procedure.
A radio communication system that includes a first radio communication system, 4G and a second radio communication system, 5G, the radio communication system comprising:
- a memory that non-transitorily retains, before a terminal receives a handover request between a bearer and a flow, association information in which a type of the bearer configured in the first radio communication system and a type of the flow that corresponds to service quality and is configured in the second radio communication system are associated;
- and
- a processor that transmits the association information to a terminal that executes handover between the first radio communication system and the second radio communication system,
- wherein the processor transmits the association information using a PDU session Establishment/Modification procedure.
A radio communication method implemented in a radio communication system that includes a first radio communication system, 4G and a second radio communication system, 5G, the radio communication method comprising:
- retaining in which a terminal non-transitorily retains, before the terminal receives a handover request between a bearer and a flow, association information in which a type of the bearer configured in the first radio communication system and a type of the flow that corresponds to service quality and is configured in the second radio communication system are associated;
- and
- executing in which the terminal executes handover between the bearer and the flow associated with each other by using the association information,
- wherein the terminal receives the association information using a PDU session Establishment/Modification procedure.
