US 2024/0195578 A1 · DATA PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS, NETWORK DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT

Abstract

The present application provides a data processing method and apparatus, a network device, a storage medium and a program product. The method is applied to a first network element in a radio access network, and includes: receiving a downlink data packet, where the downlink data packet includes downlink user data and an identifier of a data flow to which the downlink user data belongs; and transmitting a first interface message to a second network element in the radio access network, where the first interface message includes the identifier of the data flow, and the first interface message is used for determining a target bearer to which the data flow is mapped. Thereby, it is ensured that data on a data flow can be transmitted in the manner of meeting a QoS requirement thereof.

Dependent claims

A data processing method, applied to a first network element in a radio access network and comprising:

receiving a downlink data packet, wherein the downlink data packet comprises downlink user data and an identifier of a data flow to which the downlink user data belongs;
transmitting a first interface message to a second network element in the radio access network, wherein the first interface message comprises the identifier of the data flow, and the first interface message is used for determining a target bearer to which the data flow is mapped.

A data processing method, applied to a second network element in a radio access network and comprising:

receiving a first interface message transmitted by a first network element in the radio access network, wherein the first interface message comprises an identifier of a data flow of downlink user data;
determining a target bearer to which the data flow is mapped according to the first interface message;
transmitting a second interface message to the first network element, wherein the second interface message comprises an identifier of the target bearer, so that the first network element transmits the downlink user data to a user equipment according to the target bearer.

A network device, comprising a memory, a transceiver and a processor, wherein:

the memory is configured to store a computer program;
the transceiver is configured to receive and transmit data under control of the processor;
and
the processor is configured to read the computer program in the memory to:
control the transceiver to receive a downlink data packet, wherein the downlink data packet comprises downlink user data and an identifier of a data flow to which the downlink user data belongs;
control the transceiver device to transmit a first interface message to a second network element in a radio access network, wherein the first interface message comprises the identifier of the data flow, and the first interface message is used for determining a target bearer to which the data flow is mapped.
