Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to request connection to a selected one of a plurality of available network slices of a network system. The UE implements a permission control framework that allows individual applications to request connection to the selected network slice, but establishes the connection only when the framework determines, based on any of a variety of permission criteria, that the application is permitted to access the requested network slice. The UE also supports user selection of the network slice via a graphical user interface that presents a selectable list of available network slices.

Abstract: A distributed software defined network (SDN) packet core system is configured to support a plurality of radio access technologies. The distributed SDN packet core system can include a cloud-based SDN centralized infrastructure instance and a plurality of local SDN infrastructure instances distributed in proximity to wireless access networks and radio access points thereof. The cloud-based centralized SDN infrastructure instance can be configured to handle network operations that are not latency sensitive. Each local SDN infrastructure instance can include a plurality of computer devices configured to execute a plurality of RAT specific control-plane modules and a plurality of RAT independent packet processing modules for performing latency sensitive network operations.

Abstract: A system and method provide for connectivity to multiple network operators at a given time, and sorting outgoing traffic based on criteria associated with the data and the network operators. Available networks are identified, and a mobile device attaches to a first network for communication through a first application, and also attaches to a second network for communication through a second application, without requiring detachment from the first network. Accordingly, traffic for the first application is steered through the selected first network, and traffic for the second application is steered through the second network.

Abstract: A method includes determining that a user device is located within a specified geographical region, and determining that the user device has an active subscription with a terrestrial network operator operating a terrestrial network within the geographical region, the terrestrial network associated with a primary profile stored on a subscriber identity module of the user device. The method also includes, in response to determining that the user device is located within the geographical region and that the user device has an active subscription with the terrestrial network operator, receiving, from the terrestrial network operator, a secondary profile attached to the active subscription and associated with a non-terrestrial communication network. The method further includes storing the secondary profile on an embedded subscriber identity module on the user device, and communicating via the non-terrestrial communication network using the secondary profile.

Abstract: Systems and methods for balancing load in a distributed software defined network (SDN) packet core system include a stateless load balancer within a local SDN infrastructure instance of the distributed SDN packet core system receiving a data packet for processing by at least one of a plurality of SDN network function modules of local SDN infrastructure instance. The stateless load balancer can direct the data packet to a stateful load balancer residing on a first computing device, among the plurality of computing devices in the local SDN infrastructure instance. The stateful load balancer can determine a stateful data packet processing task to be applied to the data packet and determine a second computing device in the local SDN infrastructure instance for applying the determined stateful data packet processing task to the data packet. The stateful load balancer can then forward the data packet to the second computing device.
