摘要: A device may include a processor configured to receive a request to establish a communication session or data flow for a user equipment (UE) device connected to a Radio Access Network (RAN). The processor may be further configured to obtain key performance indicators (KPI) information relating to one or more KPIs for a plurality of paths in a transport network used by the RAN to connect to a core network; determine a KPI requirement for the communication session or data flow to be established; select a path in the transport network based on the obtained KPI information and the determined KPI requirement; and establish the communication session or data flow in the transport network using the selected path.

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 method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which an blockchain-based network information management service is provided. The service provides blockchain mechanisms that allows for the management and disbursement of network information among network devices of a RAN, a core network, and an application layer network. The service may define a structure for the network information that may be used by RAN devices, core devices, and application layer devices of different vendors and third parties.

摘要: A system includes one or more devices. The devices are configured to: receive a message indicating that a network slice has been deployed in a network, wherein the message includes information related to the network slice; send the information to an application that provides services to User Equipment (UE) devices subscribed to the network; and initiate updates to UE route selection policies (URSPs) in the network based on the information, allowing communications from UE devices to reach the network slice.

摘要: A device may obtain a Segment Routing Internet Version 6 (SRv6) packet; determine a first segment identifier, based on the SRv6 packet, that includes a node identifier, a function identifier, and a Single-Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI); obtain the function identifier and the S-NSSAI from the segment identifier; and execute a first instruction, which corresponds to the function identifier, for a network slice specified by the S-NSSAI.

摘要: A method, a system, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which an adaptive packet scheduling and policy service is provided. The adaptive packet scheduling and policy service may provide adaptive packet scheduling in a transport domain of a network based on adaptive packet scheduling policies and network information. The adaptive packet scheduling and policy service may be applied to assured network services. The adaptive packet scheduling and policy service may also provide transport domain budgeting based on service level agreement violations associated with transport devices in the transport domain.

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.

摘要: A method may include storing, in a block chain ledger, information associated with an agreement between a first service provider associated with a first network and a second service provider associated with a second network. The method may also include receiving, by a device, first capacity information associated with slices in the first network, storing the first capacity information in the block chain ledger and receiving a message associated with a roaming handoff for a communication session in the first network. The method may further include determining, by the device whether adequate resources are available in the second network to support the communication session and sending, to the first service provider, a message indicating that adequate resources are available in the second network to support the communication session.

摘要: A system includes one or more devices that include processors. The processors are configured to: receive a request to deploy a network slice within a network, retrieve network service descriptors, from a database, associated with the network slice; and instantiate the network slice within the network based on the network service descriptors.
