Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a communication method and apparatus for an open radio access network (O-RAN), an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium, relating to communication. The method comprises: determining, by an O-RAN distributed unit (O-DU), for a periodic or semi-persistent channel or signal, that that a trigger condition for a first control-plane message is satisfied; and transmitting, by the O-DU, a first control-plane message to an O-RAN radio unit (O-RU), the first control-plane message indicating a first endpoint in the O-RU to perform an operation related to first information, the O-RU configured to periodically control receiving uplink air interface data or processing downlink user-plane messages based on the first information. In various embodiments of the disclosure, periodically transmitting control-plane messages is avoided and the message load of the fronthaul interface is thus effectively reduced. Therefore, for channels or signals with periodic or semi-persistent characteristics, a defect that loads of the fronthaul interface could not be reduced by the existing solutions can be addressed.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method performed by a network node, comprising acquiring cell capacity information of a plurality of cells corresponding to a Distributed Unit (DU) of a base station. The method comprises determining cell capacity summations corresponding to the DU based on each cell corresponding to different cell capacities, based on the cell capacity information. The method comprises determining a predicted cell capacity of the plurality of cells based on the cell capacity summations, for the base station allocating a cell capacity with respect to each of the plurality of cells according to the predicted cell capacity.
