    Abstract: This application provides a communication method and apparatus. The method may include: A terminal device obtains first indication information, where the first indication information indicates at least one multicast key transmission procedure, each multicast key transmission procedure is a communication procedure that is supported by a network side and that is used to transmit a multicast key to the terminal device, and the multicast key is a security transmission key of a multicast session between the terminal device and a first content delivery network element. The terminal device obtains service data from a core network based on a support case of the terminal device for the at least one multicast key transmission procedure.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for paging information on a Multicast/Broadcast Service (MBS) bandwidth part (BWP) in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises receiving a Multicast/Broadcast Services (MBS) service on an MBS Bandwidth Part (BWP), wherein the MBS BWP is not overlapped with an initial BWP; receiving paging information on the MBS BWP, wherein the paging information includes information related to a paging message on the initial BWP; switching from the MBS BWP to an initial BWP, based on the paging information; and receiving the paging message on the initial BWP.

    Abstract: A method for delivering data to User Equipments (UEs) is implemented in a node of a Radio Access Network (RAN), and includes receiving, from a network node, a packet including data that is to be delivered from a Core Network (CN) to one or more User Equipments (UEs); transmitting the packet to at least some of the one or more UEs via a broadcast transmission when the packet is received via a common downlink tunnel or via a first DL tunnel of a plurality of DL tunnels; and transmitting the packet to a particular UE of the one or more UEs via a unicast transmission when the packet is not received via the common downlink tunnel or is received via a second DL tunnel of the plurality of DL tunnels.

    Abstract: To manage multicast and unicast data transmissions. a base station receives. from a core network (CN), a multicast and/or broadcast services (MBS) downlink data packet via a downlink tunnel (602). The base station determines whether to transmit the MBS downlink data packet to a plurality of UEs via unicast or multicast. Then the base station transmits the MBS downlink data packet to a plurality of first UEs via a multicast data transmission (606), and/or transmits the MBS downlink data packet to a plurality of second UEs via a plurality of unicast data transmissions (608).

    Abstract: A method performed by a first network node in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes determining whether to establish an F1 tunnel with a third node, transmitting, to a second node, a first message including a first indication, wherein the first indication indicates that a user plane between the third node and the first node has not been established, and transmitting, to the third node, a second message including a second indication, wherein the second indication indicates that the user plane between the third node and the first node has not been established.
