Abstract: A device may configure a centralized performance indicator data store for a plurality of network function devices included in a telecommunications system. The centralized performance indicator data store may be accessible by the plurality of network function devices on a management bus of the telecommunications system via a service-based interface. The device may subscribe the centralized performance indicator data store to a message class associated with performance indicator data that is generated by the plurality of network function devices. The device may receive, from the plurality of network function devices, one or more published communications associated with the message class. The one or more published communications may include the performance indicator data. The device may store the performance indicator data in the centralized performance indicator data store.

Abstract: A device may receive load data identifying loads of network functions provided by a cloud computing environment, resource data associated with resources of the cloud computing environment, and resource distribution data associated with the resources. The device may perform data analytics on the load data, the resource data, and the resource distribution data to identify, from the network functions, a network function being impacted and to determine that the network function requires resource modification. The device may calculate, based on the data analytics and based on determining that the network function requires resource modification, parameters for the resource modification and may perform one or more actions based on the parameters for the resource modification.

Abstract: A network device of a network may receive a registration request from a user equipment, and may generate, based on the registration request, a request for a usage limit control associated with the user equipment. The network device may provide the request for the usage limit control to another network device of the network, and may receive, based on the request, the usage limit control from the other network device. The network device may determine a policy for the user equipment based on the usage limit control, and may cause the policy to be implemented for the user equipment.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may receive a subscription request to subscribe to receive an event notification based on an event. The event may be associated with the network device receiving a request for discovery of a unified data management (UDM) device. The request for discovery of the UDM device may be based on an identifier of a user equipment (UE). The network device may transmit, based on the subscription request, an indication of a subscription to receive the event notification based on the event.

Abstract: A device may receive performance requirements for a service, and may receive RAN factors that influence a RAN, core factors that influence a core network, and transport factors that influence a transport network. The device may determine a RAN capability to satisfy the performance requirements, and may determine a core capability to satisfy the performance requirements. The device may determine a transport capability to satisfy the performance requirements, and may determine RAN configuration settings, core configuration settings, and transport configuration settings based on the RAN capability, the core capability, and the transport capability, respectively. The device may generate a RAN SON based on the RAN configuration settings, a core SON based on the core configuration settings, and a transport SON based on the transport configuration settings. The device may create a network slice based service area based on the RAN SON, the core SON, and the transport SON.

Abstract: In the various embodiments, systems and methods are disclosed for determining the location of User Equipment (UE) in a network and for authorizing access to content based on said location. An aspect of the present disclosure is a method including receiving, by a Content Authorization Function (CAF), a request to provide a UE type of a UE and a physical location associated with the UE, the request including a UE Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with the UE; querying, by the CAF, a Network Function (NF), to provide the UE type and associated physical location, the query including the UE IP address; receiving, by the CAF from the NF, the UE type and associated physical location; and transmitting the UE type and associated physical location.

Abstract: Disclosure are techniques for allocating aggregation devices in a lawful intercept system. In an embodiment, a method includes maintaining a list of point of interception aggregation (PAG) functions in a network function repository function (NRF) of a cellular network upon instantiation of the PAG functions; receiving a lawful intercept (LI) request; querying the NRF to determine a respective PAG function; and associating a point of interception (POI) function with the respective PAG function.

Abstract: In some implementations, a first network device may be associated with a serving gateway control plane function of a core network. The first network device may send, via a first interface, an association message to a second network device that is associated with a session management function and a packet data gateway control plane function of the core network. The first network device may receive selection information from the second network device via the first interface. The first network device may select, based on the selection information, a third network device that is associated with a serving gateway user plane function of the core network. The first network device may cause the third network device to route traffic for a packet data network session associated with a user device.

Abstract: A network device may receive, from a user device, a request for data associated with network slices provided to a region or a network, and may provide, to the user device, network slice data, quality of service (QOS) levels, and a policy lookup table based on the request. The network device may receive, from the user device, priority data identifying a network slice for prioritization, a duration of the prioritization, and a policy for the prioritization, and may create, based on the priority data, a QoS policy table that includes a QoS level for the network slice. The network device may cause network functions to utilize the QoS policy table for a user equipment.

Abstract: In some implementations, a domain name system (DNS) server may receive, from a user equipment (UE), a DNS request message that indicates location information. The DNS server may select a node for the UE based on the location information. The DNS server may transmit, to the UE, an indication of the node.
