1. A method for determining a capability of a User Equipment (UE), comprising:
transmitting, by the UE, a network mode to a core network element, wherein the network mode is used by the core network element to determine a UE capability identifier corresponding to the network mode, and the network mode comprises at least one of: a Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) mode, a Wide Band-Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) Terrestrial Radio Access Network (WB-EUTRAN) mode, or a Radio Access Technology (RAT) network mode other than NB-IoT and WB-EUTRAN, wherein for each network mode among different network modes, a respective UE capability identifier has a correspondence with a corresponding capability set of the UE, the capability set of the UE has a correspondence with the UE capability identifier and the network mode of the UE, and the capability set of the UE, the UE capability identifier, and the network mode of the UE are in a one-to-one correspondence, and
receiving, by the UE, the UE capability identifier transmitted by the core network element, wherein the UE capability identifier is allocated by a UE Capability Management Function (UCMF) entity.
