Abstract
A communication method includes: in response to being triggered by a policy decision, performing, by a first control plane network element, an SM policy association modification procedure initiated by the first control plane network element, to notify a second control plane network element of a modification of a policy; and in responding to determining that a data rate for S-NSSAI reaches a threshold, using, by the first control plane network element, a utilized data rate for the policy decision, and downgrading, by the first control plane network element, an Session-AMBR.
Claims20
A communication method, comprising:
- in response to being triggered by a policy decision, performing, by a first control plane network element, a session management (SM) policy association modification procedure initiated by the first control plane network element, to notify a second control plane network element of a modification of a policy;
- and
- in response to determining that a remaining data rate for single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) reaches a threshold, using, by the first control plane network element, a utilized data rate of the S-NSSAI for the policy decision, and downgrading, by the first control plane network element, an authorized session aggregate maximum bit rate (Session-AMBR), wherein the remaining data rate is obtained by deducting the authorized Session-AMBR from a Maximum Bit Rate (MBR) allocated to the S-NSSAI;
- and the utilized data rate of the S-NSSAI is determined according to analytics information provided by a network data analysis function (NWDAF) network element.
A communication method, comprising:
- in response to being triggered by a policy decision, performing, by a first control plane network element, a session management (SM) policy association modification procedure initiated by the first control plane network element, to notify a second control plane network element of a modification of a policy;
- and
- in response to determining that a remaining data rate for single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) reaches a threshold, updating, by the first control plane network element, a policy and charging control (PCC) rule, and using, by the first control plane network element, a utilized data rate of the S-NSSAI for the policy decision of the first control plane network element, wherein the remaining data rate is obtained by deducting an authorized session aggregate maximum bit rate (Session-AMBR) from a Maximum Bit Rate (MBR) allocated to the S-NSSAI;
- and the utilized data rate of the S-NSSAI is determined according to analytics information provided by a network data analysis function (NWDAF) network element.
A communication method, comprising:
- in response to being triggered by a policy decision, performing, by a first control plane network element, an access and mobility management (AM) policy association modification procedure initiated by the first control plane network element, to notify a third control plane network element of a modification of a policy;
- and
- in response to determining that a remaining data rate for single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) reaches a threshold, downgrading, by the first control plane network element, an authorized a-user equipment-slice-aggregate maximum bit rate (UE-Slice-AMBR), and using, by the first control plane network element, a utilized data rate of the S-NSSAI for the policy decision of the first control plane network element, wherein the remaining data rate is obtained by deducting the authorized Session-AMBR from a Maximum Bit Rate (MBR) allocated to the S-NSSAI;
- and the utilized data rate of the S-NSSAI is determined according to analytics information provided by a network data analysis function (NWDAF) network element.
