    摘要: A system described herein may register a particular radio access network (“RAN”)-based interface, such as a R1 interface, with a RAN, such as an Open-RAN (“O-RAN”). The system may further be associated with a particular Service-Based Interface (“SBI”) of a core network that includes a plurality of network functions (“NFs”), where each NF is associated with a respective SBI. The system may receive, via the particular SBI, a request for RAN information from one or more NFs of the core network, obtain the RAN information from the RAN via the particular interface, output the requested RAN information to the one or more NFs of the core network via the particular SBI. Associating the system with the SBI may be performed without modifying a Network Repository Function (“NRF”) of the core network.

    摘要: A device may include a processor configured to receive a request to admit a network slice, associated with at least one requirement, in a wireless communication network. The processor may be further configured to determine a resources, associated with the wireless communication network, needed to implement the network slice; compute an estimated resource load for the network slice; compute a projected resource load for the determined resources; and determine that the resources have sufficient capacity to meet the at least one requirement associated with the network slice based on the computed estimated resource load and the projected resource load for the resources. The processor may admit the network slice to be deployed in the wireless communication network, in response to determining that the resources have sufficient capacity to meet the at least one requirement associated with the network slice.

    摘要: A device can receive, from first user equipment, information that relates to a first application, where the information includes a plurality of S-NSSAI. The device can determine whether the plurality of S-NSSAI are configured as a group of associated S-NSSAI. The device can determine that a preference is to be given to one of: communication sessions associated with the first application relative to a communication session associated with a second application, that does not utilize multiple network slices, of the first user equipment or second user equipment; traffic flows associated with the first application relative to a traffic flow associated with the second application; or a plurality of network slices associated with the first application relative to a network slice associated with the second application. The device can perform one or more actions based on determining the preference to thereby facilitate a particular functionality of the first application.
