Abstract
A communication method is provided. A first network element receives an association identifier of a first application from a session management network element, where the association identifier is for associating different quality of service QoS flows of the first application. The first network element performs joint scheduling on the plurality of QoS flows of the first application that each carry the association identifier. Based on this solution, the first network element can identify, based on the association identifier, QoS flows belonging to a same application, and perform joint scheduling, thereby ensuring that the QoS flows of the same application can arrive at a terminal device simultaneously or a time interval between arrivals at the terminal device is small, so that the service experience of a user can be improved.
