    Abstract: A network entity is proposed for controlling the use, by a user equipment, of network slices of a communication network comprising a plurality of slice support areas. Each slice support area comprises at least one cell, and all cells of a given slice support area support the same network slices. A registration area for the registration of the user equipment with the communication network comprises at least one slice support area. The network entity is adapted to transmit, to the user equipment, slice support information for at least one slice support area of the communication network. The slice support information for a given slice support area indicates at least one network slice supported by the given slice support area and/or at least one network slice not supported by the given slice support area.

    Abstract: This application provides an approach for determining a location of a terminal device and a device. The approach includes: a location management function center network element that determines location information of a relay node; obtains measurement information of a plurality of to-be-measured terminal devices; and determines, based on the location information of the relay node and the measurement information of the plurality of to-be-measured terminal devices, location information of the plurality of to-be-measured terminal devices. In the approach, the location management function center network element obtains the measurement information of the plurality of to-be-measured terminal devices through the relay node, and further determines, based on the location information of the relay node and the measurement information, the location information of the plurality of to-be-measured terminal devices, without performing a separate signaling interaction, in a location procedure, with each terminal device in the plurality of to-be-measured terminal devices.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to inter-network mobility methods, apparatus, and communications devices. In one example method, a first access device sends a first indication to a terminal device, where the first indication is used to indicate the terminal device to reserve first information after the terminal device moves from a first network to a network other than the first network, and the first information includes one or more of a context of the terminal device in the first network, information about a signaling radio bearer (SRB) in the first network, information about a data radio bearer (DRB) in the first network, an identifier of the terminal device in the first network, information about a first cell in which the first access device provides a service for the terminal device, an identifier of the first network, or a cause value.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides data transmission methods and apparatuses. One example method includes when the terminal device needs to perform the cross-network movement, the terminal device sends a message to a network element of a network accessed by the terminal device, to notify that the terminal device is to perform the cross-network movement from a source network to a target network. Therefore, during the movement of the terminal device, a network side pauses transmission of user plane data of the terminal device, and buffers data that is not sent before the terminal device performs the cross-network movement. After accessing the target network, the network side sends the buffered data to the terminal device.

    Abstract: This application relates to the field of communications technologies, and discloses a method and apparatus. The method includes: A real base station receives a first uplink NAS message and an identifier of a first device. The real base station obtains a first hash value of first system information of a cell corresponding to the identifier of the first device. The real base station sends an N2 message to a core network device, where the N2 message includes the first uplink NAS message and the first hash value of the first system information. The core network device receives the N2 message from the real base station, and sends an integrity protected first downlink NAS message to a terminal, where the first downlink NAS message is forwarded by the real base station to the terminal, and the first downlink NAS message includes the first hash value of the first system information.
