Abstract
Described are techniques for providing, a quality of service (QoS) update from a control plane of a base station to a user plane of the base station based on a QoS event, wherein the QoS update includes information indicative of a mapping between a QoS flow and corresponding radio resources for user data transmission, storing, at the user plane, the mapping between the QoS flow and the radio resources, receiving, at the user plane, a downstream data packet of the QoS flow from a core network, and transmitting the downstream data packet in a downlink direction using the corresponding radio resources.
Claims12
A wireless communication method, comprising:
- receiving, by a control plane of a base station from a user plane of the base station, a request message that requests the control plane to determine a mapping relationship between a quality of service (QoS) flow and a data radio bearer (DRB) in an uplink direction from a communication device to the base station;
- and
- transmitting, by the control plane of the base station to the user plane of the base station, a response message that includes the mapping relationship between one or more uplink QoS flows and the DRB.
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- receive, by a control plane of a base station from a user plane of the base station, a request message that requests the control plane to determine a mapping relationship between a quality of service (QoS) flow and a data radio bearer (DRB) in an uplink direction from a communication device to the base station;
- and
- transmit, by the control plane of the base station to the user plane of the base station, a response message that includes the mapping relationship between one or more uplink QoS flows and the DRB.
A non-transitory computer readable program storage medium having code stored thereon, the code, when executed by a processor, causing the processor to implement a method, comprising:
- receiving, by a control plane of a base station from a user plane of the base station, a request message that requests the control plane to determine a mapping relationship between a quality of service (QoS) flow and a data radio bearer (DRB) in an uplink direction from a communication device to the base station;
- and
- transmitting, by the control plane of the base station to the user plane of the base station, a response message that includes the mapping relationship between one or more uplink QoS flows and the DRB.
