A wireless communication method for use in a first wireless network node is disclosed. The wireless communication method comprises receiving, from a first session management function, a temporary mobile group identity associated with a multicast/broadcast service and a wireless terminal, receiving, from a second session management function, a request for activating a multicast/broadcast service session corresponding to the temporary mobile group identity, and transmitting, to the first session management function, a message comprising information indicating a status of the multicast/broadcast service session in the first wireless network node.

Method for handling multicast/broadcast service session

A wireless communication method for use in a network node is disclosed. The method comprises receiving, from a communication node, a message indicating a capability of being a grand master clock, and transmitting, to the communication node, announce information associated with a first announce message based on the capability.

Methods, systems and apparatuses for 5G time synchronization

A method of handing over a mobile communication device from a first access network to a second access network (in one implementation) is as follows. In response to a protocol data unit session update request, a first computing device (e.g., an AMF) receives an identifier of a protocol data unit session and network slice information regarding a network slice to be used by the mobile communication device to communicate on the second access network using the protocol data unit session. The first computing device uses the network slice information to select a network slice instance and to select a second computing device (e.g., another AMF) within the network slice instance. The first computing device transmits, to the second computing device, a relocation request that includes the network slice information and the identifier of the protocol data unit session.

Methods and system for carrying out a handover of a mobile communication device between different access networks

A system and method for enabling one to many multicast communication in a 5G wireless network are disclosed herein.

The method further includes receiving, by the first wireless communication node, the one or more multicast group member information from the second wireless communication node, and configuring, by the first wireless communication node, one or more third wireless communication nodes with the one or more multicast group member information received from the second wireless communication node, to set up rules for multicast packet forwarding at the one or more third wireless communication nodes.

Method, system and apparatus of multicast communication

Provided are an indication information sending method, apparatus and system, a storage medium, and an electronic device, where the indication information sending method includes: sending, by a first access and mobility management function (AMF), first indication information to a first target network element, where the first indication information is used for indicating whether a packet data unit (PDU) session is capable of interworking with a target network system.

Indication information sending method, apparatus and system, and storage medium

Methods, apparatus and systems for time mapping in a wireless communication are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method performed by a first network node of a wireless system is disclosed. The method comprises: receiving, from a controller of a time sensitive network (TSN), a configuration that comprises time information for scheduling; and converting the time information to converted time information of the wireless system.

Methods, apparatus and systems for time mapping in a wireless communication

Methods, apparatus and systems for satisfying a time control requirement in a wireless communication are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method performed by a first network node is disclosed. The method comprises: generating a timestamp associated with downlink data to be transmitted; and transmitting the downlink data with the timestamp.

Methods, apparatus and systems for satisfying a time control requirement in a wireless communication

Provided are a method, apparatus and device for a terminal moving between a 4G network and a 5G network. The method includes: transmitting, by a management device corresponding to a target network, an access accept message, where the access accept message carries an activation indication; and the activation indication is used for indicating a terminal to reactivate a public data network (PDN) connection or a protocol data unit (PDU) session in a source network in the target network, or indicating the terminal that the PDN connection or the PDU session has been activated in the target network.

Method, apparatus and device for allowing terminal to move between 4G and 5G networks

A network handover method includes: receiving a first handover request sent by a source base station connected to the core network of the first network, wherein the first handover request is used for requesting a handover of a user equipment from the source base station to a target base station, and the target base station is connected to at least one of the core network of the first network or a core network of a second network; determining, according to the first handover request, a core network of a target network accessed by the UE through the target base station, wherein the core network of the target network is the core network of the first network or the core network of the second network; and initiating the handover of the UE between the source base station and the target base station according to the core network of the target network.

Network handover method, apparatus and system, and handover determination method and apparatus

Disclosed in embodiments of the present disclosure are a network handover method, apparatus and system. The method includes: a first network element instructing a source base station connected to a user equipment (UE) to initiate a handover during establishment of traffic for the UE; and a second network element initiating bearer establishment or Quality of Service (QoS) flow establishment after the UE has been handed over from a first access network to a second access network. With the embodiments of the present disclosure, a technical problem of an over-complicated handover between networks in the related art is solved.
