    Abstract: This application provides a communication method, an apparatus, and a system, to improve communication efficiency. One method includes: sending, by an access network node to a terminal device, indication information indicating to transmit a quality of service (QoS) flow by using a bearer, wherein a protocol stack corresponding to the bearer supports transmission of the QoS flow through a first path, wherein the first path passes through one of (1) a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) layer of a master node and a protocol layer below an SDAP layer of a secondary node, or (2) an SDAP layer of the secondary node and a protocol layer below an SDAP layer of the master node; and transmitting, by the access network node, the QoS flow by using the first bearer.

    Abstract: An aspect of the disclosure provides a method of network slice management performed by a Communication Service Management Function (CSMF). The method includes receiving service requirements and receiving capability exposure information. The method further includes transmitting network slice requirements in accordance with the service requirements and capability exposure information. In some embodiments the capability exposure information is received from a Network Slice Management Function (NSMF). In some embodiments the network slice requirements are transmitted to the NSMF. Other aspects are directed to methods implemented by an NSMF and a Network Sub-Slice Management Function (NSSMF). Other aspects are directed to the network functions themselves.
