Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for network slice selection during an initial connection. A wireless station receives, from a core network device, network slice data for each network slice available via the wireless station, wherein the network slice data includes a slice identifier and corresponding slice characteristics for each network slice. The wireless station receives, from a user equipment (UE) device, a registration request message that indicates a network slice characteristic required by an application being executed on UE device. The wireless station selects, based on the network slice data from the core network device and the network slice characteristic from the UE device, one of the slice identifiers for servicing the UE device.

Abstract: A computer device may include a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to select a broadcast method for a wakeup signal for a wireless communication device; instruct a base station to broadcast the wakeup signal using the selected broadcast method; and provide information identifying the selected broadcast method to the wireless communication device. The processor may be further configured to receiving a wakeup request from a machine-type communication interworking function (MTC-IWF) device; map the received wakeup request to a wakeup signature beacon signal associated with the wireless communication device; and instruct the base station to transmit a wakeup signature beacon signal to the wireless communication device based on the received wakeup request.

Abstract: A device receives analytics data associated with management of a network associated with the device, core data associated with a core domain of the network, edge data associated with an edge domain of the network, and radio access network (RAN) data for a RAN associated with the network. The device processes the analytics data, the core data, the edge data, and the RAN data, with a machine learning model, to determine actions to be performed with respect to the core domain of the network, the edge domain of the network, and/or the RAN. The device causes the actions to be performed by one or more core devices associated with the core domain of the network, one or more edge devices associated with the edge domain of the network, and/or one or more RAN devices associated with the RAN.

Abstract: In some implementations, a device may partition a coverage area associated with a network to form one or more geographic sectors, and may determine a pathloss value for each frequency band of multiple frequency bands and a spatial distribution between cells, within the geographic sector, for each frequency band. The device may determine a degree of contiguous coverage for each frequency band within the geographic sector based on the pathloss value and the spatial distribution between cells for that frequency band, and may determine, based on the degree of contiguous coverage for each frequency band, a specific frequency band, of the multiple frequency bands, to be used as a primary carrier for carrier aggregation in the geographic sector. The device may output information that identifies a carrier aggregation profile that indicates the specific frequency band to be used as the primary carrier for carrier aggregation in the geographic sector.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a network slice-based admission and congestion control service is provided. The congestion control service monitors for congestion in a network slice. When congestion is detected, the congestion control service may adjust an allotment of a resource of a network device or the resource of the network slice from end-to-end. When neither of these adjustments can be made, the congestion control service may use a network slice-based access control barring.

Abstract: A network device receives, from a network management system (NMS), a first traffic distribution associated with the FD-MIMO antenna site, and receives a first service reliability requirement associated with the FD-MIMO antenna site. The network device determines, based on physical constraints, a maximum number of a plurality of antenna base blocks that can be placed at a full-dimension multiple input multiple output (FD-MIMO) antenna site, wherein each of the plurality of antenna base blocks includes a plurality of antennas. The network device further determines a first number of antennas to switch into the FD-MIMO antenna site based on the determined maximum number of the plurality of antenna base blocks, the first traffic distribution, and the first service reliability requirement; and causes the first number of antennas to be switched into the FD-MIMO antenna site.
