  • Publication number: 20240373494
    Abstract: This application relates to a communication method and system. A first network element receives information about downlink data from a second network element, where the downlink data is from a core network device. The first network element is a first DU, and the second network element is a first CU; or the first network element is a first CU-CP, and the second network element is a first CU-UP. If the downlink data meets a downlink small data transmission condition, the first network element sends a paging message that indicates a terminal device to initiate a downlink small data transmission procedure. For example, the first network element is a DU, and the downlink data from the core network device may reach a CU.

  • Publication number: 20240313896
    Abstract: This application relates to a communication method and device. A terminal device sends first data to an access network device on a first resource, and starts a first timer, where the first resource is a preconfigured resource, the first data is small data, and the terminal device is in an RRC non-connected state. If first information is received before the first timer expires, the first timer is stopped, where the first information is information indicating that the first data is successfully transmitted, and the first information is MAC layer information, or the first information is information for scheduling a resource. If the first information is, for example, the MAC layer information, feedback information at a physical layer does not need to be introduced.
