When RRC (
TS 38.331) configures a PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule for a PC5 QoS flow, the SDAP entity shall:
-
for unicast of NR sidelink communication, if the SDAP entity has already been established and there is no stored SL-DRB mapping rule for the PC5 QoS flow and a default SL-DRB is configured:
-
construct an end-marker control PDU, as specified in the clause 6.2.3, for the PC5 QoS flow;
-
map the end-marker control PDU to the default SL-DRB;
-
submit the end-marker control PDU to the lower layers;
-
for unicast of NR sidelink communication, if the stored PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule is different from the configured PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule for the PC5 QoS flow and the SL-DRB according to the stored PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule is configured by RRC (TS 38.331) with the presence of SL SDAP header:
-
construct an end-marker control PDU, as specified in the clause 6.2.3, for the PC5 QoS flow;
-
map the end-marker control PDU to the SL-DRB according to the stored PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule;
-
submit the end-marker control PDU to the lower layers;
-
store the configured PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule for the PC5 QoS flow.
When RRC (
TS 38.331) releases a PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule for a PC5 QoS flow, the SDAP entity shall:
-
remove the PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mapping rule for the PC5 QoS flow.
When RRC (
TS 38.331) indicates that an SL-DRB is released, the SDAP entity shall:
-
remove all PC5 QoS flow to SL-DRB mappings associated with the released SL-DRB based on the clause 5.5.1.
