Abstract
A communications method that meets QoS requirements of services of different communication types, including: an application layer entity of a first terminal device delivers communication type information and a target side identifier to a control layer entity of the first terminal device; the control layer entity of the first terminal device establishes, based on the communication type information, a radio bearer group that is of a sidelink and that corresponds to a communication type, where the radio bearer group of the sidelink corresponds to the target side identifier.
Claims18
A communication method, wherein the method comprises:
- sending, at a first protocol layer entity of a first terminal device, communication type information and a target side identifier to a second protocol layer entity of the first terminal device, wherein the communication type information identifies a unicast communication, and the target side identifier comprises an identifier of a second terminal device;
- and
- establishing, at the second protocol layer entity of the first terminal device, at least one radio bearer for unicast communication, wherein the at least one radio bearer corresponds to the target side identifier.
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor, and a memory storing instructions that are executable by the at least one processor;
- wherein, when executed, the instructions cause the apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- sending, at a first protocol layer entity of the communication apparatus, communication type information and a target side identifier to a second protocol layer entity of the communication apparatus, wherein the communication type information identifies a unicast communication, and the target side identifier comprises an identifier of a second terminal device;
- and
- establishing, at the second protocol layer entity of the communication apparatus, at least one radio bearer for unicast communication, wherein the at least one radio bearer corresponds to the target side identifier.
A non-transitory memory storage medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a first terminal device to perform:
- sending, at a first protocol layer entity of the first terminal device, communication type information and a target side identifier to a second protocol layer entity of the first terminal device, wherein the communication type information identifies a unicast communication, and the target side identifier comprises an identifier of a second terminal device;
- and
- establishing, at the second protocol layer entity of the first terminal device, at least one radio bearer for unicast communication, wherein the at least one radio bearer correspond to the target side identifier.
