## Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a data processing method, apparatus, and device. The method includes: sending, by a user equipment UE, updated metadata; obtaining a metadata index value corresponding to the updated metadata; and broadcasting, by the UE, the obtained metadata index value.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method, comprising:
sending, by a user equipment (UE), a request message, wherein the request message comprises updated metadata;
receiving, by the UE, a response message, wherein the response message comprises a code word, and wherein the code word comprises a metadata index value corresponding to the updated metadata; and
broadcasting, by the UE, the obtained code word.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the request message is used for metadata updating.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The method according to claim 2, wherein the code word is generated by a network side after the network side generates the metadata index value according to the received updated metadata and replaces a metadata index value in a stored code word with the generated metadata index value.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the request message is used to request to obtain the code word for broadcasting.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The method according to claim 4, wherein the code word is generated by a network side using the metadata index value and a temporary identity after the network side generates the corresponding metadata index value according to the received updated metadata and allocates, to the UE, the temporary identity in the code word for broadcasting.

### Claim 6

A method, comprising:
receiving a request message from a user equipment (UE), wherein the request message comprises updated metadata;
generating a metadata index value corresponding to the updated metadata;
generating, using the metadata index value, a code word for broadcasting by the UE; and
sending a response message, wherein the response message comprise the generated code word.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The method according to claim 6, wherein the request message is used for metadata updating.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The method according to claim 7, wherein generating, using the metadata index value, the code word for broadcasting by the UE comprises:
obtaining a stored code word for broadcasting by the UE; and
replacing a metadata index value in the obtained code word with the metadata index value.

### Claim 9 (depends on 6)

The method according to claim 6, wherein the request message is used to request to obtain the code word for broadcasting.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The method according to claim 9, wherein generating, using the metadata index value, the code word for broadcasting by the UE comprises:
allocating, to the UE, a temporary identity, and
generating, by using the metadata index value and the temporary identity, the code word for broadcasting by the UE.

### Claim 11

A device, comprising:
a non-transitory memory storage comprising instructions; and
one or more processors in communication with the memory, wherein the one or more processors execute the instructions to:
receive a request message from a user equipment (UE), wherein the request message comprises updated metadata;
generate a metadata index value corresponding to the updated metadata;
generate, using the metadata index value, a code word for broadcasting by the UE; and
send a response message, wherein the response message comprises the generated code word.

### Claim 12

The device according to claim ii, wherein the request message is used for metadata updating.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The device according to claim 12, wherein the one or more processors further execute the instructions to:
obtain a stored code word for broadcasting by the UE; and
replace a metadata index value in the obtained code word with the metadata index value.

### Claim 14

The device according to claim ii, wherein the request message is used to request to obtain the code word for broadcasting.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The device according to claim 14, wherein the one or more processors further execute the instructions to:
allocate to the UE, a temporary identity, and
generate, using the metadata index value and the temporary identity, the code word for broadcasting by the UE.
