Abstract

A communication method and apparatus. A first network device obtains first information from a second network device. The first network device obtains second information from a third network device. The first network device determines first experience information of a service of the terminal based on the first information and the second information. The first network device sends the first experience information to a fourth network device, where the first experience information is for determining a parameter that is of the service of the terminal and that is on the fourth network device.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A communication method, comprising:
obtaining, by a first network device, first information from a second network device, wherein the first information includes a first analysis result of first data that is a first model inference of a service experience of a terminal and that is on the second network device; obtaining, by the first network device, second information from a third network device, wherein the second information includes a second analysis result of first data that is a second model inference of a service experience of the terminal and that is on the third network device; determining, by the first network device, first service experience information of a service of the terminal based on the first information and the second information; and sending, by the first network device, the first service experience information to a fourth network device, wherein the first service experience information is for determining, based on multi-objective optimization, a parameter that is of the service of the terminal and that is on the fourth network device.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second network device includes a core network device, and the method further comprises:
sending, by the first network device, a first request to the core network device, wherein the first request is for requesting the first analysis result of the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the core network device, the first request includes first identification information of the terminal and at least one of the following information: an analysis identifier and identification information of a first model, and the analysis identifier and/or the identification information of the first model is for determining the first model corresponding to the first analysis result of the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the core network device.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the third network device includes an access network device, and the method further comprises:
sending, by the first network device, a second request to the access network device, wherein the second request is for requesting the second analysis result of the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the access network device, the second request includes second identification information of the terminal and at least one of the following information: the analysis identifier and identification information of a second model, and the analysis identifier and/or the identification information of the second model is for determining the second model corresponding to the second analysis result of the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the access network device.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
obtaining, by the first network device, third information from the fourth network device, wherein the third information includes a third analysis result of first data that is of the terminal and that is on the fourth network device.

5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the obtaining the third information including the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the fourth network device includes obtaining the third information including first data that is private data corresponding to the terminal.

6 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the fourth network device includes an application function device, and the method further comprises:
sending, by the first network device, a third request to the application function device, wherein the third request is for requesting the third analysis result of the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the application function device, the third request includes a third identifier of the terminal and at least one of the following information: the analysis identifier and identification information of a third model, and the analysis identifier and/or the identification information of the third model is for determining the third model corresponding to the third analysis result of the first data that is of the terminal and that is on the application function device.

7 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the obtaining the third information including the first information further includes obtaining the third information including second association information, and the second association information is for associating the first information with the third information; and/or
the third information further includes the second association information.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the obtaining the first information further includes obtaining first association information, and the first association information is for associating the second information with the first information; and/or
the second information further includes the first association information.

9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first information further includes second data that is of the terminal and that is on the second network device, the second information further includes second data that is of the terminal and that is on the third network device, and the method further comprises:
obtaining, by the first network device, a fourth analysis result based on the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the second network device and the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the third network device; and the determining, by the first network device, first service experience information of a service of the terminal based on the first information and the second information includes: determining, by the first network device, the first service experience information of the service of the terminal based on the first information, the second information, and the fourth analysis result.

10 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the obtaining the fourth analysis result based on the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the second network device includes obtaining the fourth analysis result based on public data corresponding to the terminal, and the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the third network device includes the public data corresponding to the terminal.

11 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the third information further comprises second data that is of the terminal and that is on the fourth network device;
wherein the obtaining, by the first network device, a fourth analysis result based on the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the second network device and the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the third network device includes: obtaining, by the first network device, the fourth analysis result based on the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the second network device, the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the third network device, and the second data that is of the terminal and that is on the fourth network device; and wherein the determining, by the first network device, the first service experience information of the service of the terminal based on the first information, the second information, and the fourth analysis result includes: determining, by the first network device, the first service experience information of the service of the terminal based on the first information, the second information, the third information, and the fourth analysis result.

12 . A communication apparatus comprising:
a memory configured to store instructions; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to cause the processor to perform operations to: obtain first informa
