Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to logical channel management in a communication network. In an embodiment, a mapping between a plurality of logical channels of at least one terminal device and a plurality of resource sets of a network device is determined. The resource sets are assigned for communication between the at least one terminal device and the network device via the logical channels. If at least one resource set is overloaded, at least one of the plurality of logical channels is determined based on the mapping. Status information indicating that the at least one logical channel is in a congestion status is caused to be transmitted to a target terminal device of the at least one terminal device, the target terminal device communicating with the network device via the at least one logical channel.
