Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for user plane function (UPF) and network slice load balancing within a 5G network. Example embodiments include systems and methods for load balancing based on current UPF load and thresholds that depend on UPF capacity; UPF load balancing using predicted throughput of new UE on the network based on network data analytics; UPF load balancing based on special considerations for low latency traffic; UPF load balancing supporting multiple slices, maintaining several load-thresholds for each UPF and each slice depending on the UPF and network slice capacity; and UPF load balancing using predicted central processing unit (CPU) utilization and/or predicted memory utilization of new UE on the network based on network data analytics.

Abstract: Various arrangements for performing intelligent cellular channel management are presented herein. A physical cellular communication channel may be established between a user equipment (UE) and a cellular network for sending a short message service (SMS) message in response to a cellular service request from the UE. One or more characteristics of the UE, the SMS message, or both may be analyzed. A duration of time for which the physical cellular communication channel is kept active may be based on the analyzed one or more characteristics. A channel maintenance instruction may be transmitted to keep the physical cellular communication channel active based on a cellular network messaging controller determining to adjust the duration of time for which the physical cellular communication channel is kept active.

Abstract: Methods and systems for scaling energy consumption in wireless network infrastructure, while retaining the ability to quickly scale when load changes. This end is accomplished by using containerized (or virtualized) applications to implement 5G core Network Functions, and utilizing network redundancy/geo-redundancy or a multihoming transport protocol for communication between these containerized (or virtualized) applications and other 5G system elements such as the network functions of the Radio Access Nodes (RANs) or the network functions of 5G Core. In particular, one or more core Network Functions (NFs) are instantiated as containerized applications executing on one or more virtualized hosts in a cloud-native orchestration environment. The containers are selectively activated or deactivated based on a demand for utilization of the associated NF. Because elements of the 5G RAN, 5G Core and one or more NFs are connected to one another via a protocol that supports network redundancy and/or geo-redundancy and/or multihoming, endpoint addressing need not be reconfigured when demand on the NFs changes.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for network slicing are provided. In one example, a method includes: selecting a first network slice and a second network slice both pertaining to a common data network, designating a first traffic flow to the first network slice and a second traffic flow to the second network slice, generating a first network slice profile including a first network identifier and first mapping information, generating a second network slice profile including a second network identifier and second mapping information, assigning the first network slice profile to the first traffic flow and the second network slice profile to the second traffic flow, and separating the first traffic flow from the second traffic flow on a user plane function (UPF) instance, based on the assigned first network slice profile and the second network slice profile.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for selecting, in a Fifth Generation (5G) cellular telecommunication network, a User Plane Function (UPF) of a plurality of UPFs on which to anchor a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session of a new user equipment (UE) newly appearing on the cellular telecommunication network. The selection is based on: a location of the new UE; a plurality of current loads for each UPF of the plurality of UPFs; a predicted UE load of the new UE based on network data analytics; and predicted UPF loads of the plurality of UPFs as a function of time considering the predicted UE load based on network data analytics from the Network Data Analytics Function. In the UPF selection, the Session Management Function (SMF) gives higher priority to shorter term predicted loads than longer term predicted loads.
