    Abstract: Systems and methods for orchestration and configuration of end-to-end network slices across a 3GPP core network and ORAN are described. The network includes a NSMF that receives an AllocateNSI operation with attributes to allocate an NSI. The AllocateNSI operation includes an attributeListIn parameter that specifies network slice properties in a ServiceProfile to be supported by the NSI. The NSMF determines that a new NSI is to be created rather than using an existing NSI and that the new NSI is to contain a NSSI (RAN) and a NSSI (CN). The NSMF communicates with a NSSMF (RAN) and NSSMF (CN) to create the new NSI. The new NSI includes an O-CU-CP, O-CU-UP and O-DU VNFs, and an O-RU PNF for the NSSI (RAN), and UPF, AMF, and SMF VNFs for the NSSI (CN).

    Abstract: A device to host a service producer in a 5G system (or 5G system architecture), a method to be performed at the device, and a non-transitory storage device storing instructions to be executed at the device. The method includes: decoding a request from a service consumer to manage one or more 5G quality of service (QoS) indicators (5QIs), each 5QI including a 5QI value and corresponding 5QI characteristics; configuring one or more network functions (NFs) of the 5GS with the 5QIs based on the request; and encoding for transmission to the service consumer a message including a result of managing the one or more 5QIs.

    Abstract: Systems and methods of performance management over a life cycle is provided. A measurement job control service producer receives, from an authorized consumer, a request to consume a measurement job control service. The request is analyzed, appropriate action is taken to satisfy the request and a response indicating the request result is generated. A request is to create or terminate a measurement job to collect the performance data for a NF, NSSI, NSI, or network. To create a job, the producer checks if the job can be supported by an existing job, creates the job if no such existing job exists, and otherwise responds that the job can be supported by the existing job. To terminate a job, the producer checks if the job is serving other consumers, terminates the job if other consumers are not being served, and otherwise responds that the job is currently serving other consumers.

    Abstract: Systems and methods of providing performance data streaming procedures are described. A MnS producer for measurement control receives a request to start or stop measurement collection indicating the measurements are reported by streaming, configures a NF to respectively start or stop collection of measurements and provides an indication of a result of starting or stopping the measurement collection. A MnS producer for performance data streaming, in response to reception of a request to set up streaming information sends a request to establish, add, or update a streaming connection for performance data streaming and receives an indication of a result of the request. In response to reception of a request to terminate the streaming, the MnS producer for performance data sends a request to terminate the streaming connection, or delete or update the stream information dependent on the functionality of the connection and the streams of the connection.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices for deploying machine learning (ML) models for wireless communications. A Management Service (MnS) Producer apparatus a may include processing circuitry coupled to storage for storing information associated with deploying machine learning (ML) models, the processing circuitry configured to: receive an ML model loading request, or identify an ML model loading policy, defining an ML model and a target inference function to which the ML model is to be loaded; instantiate an ML model loading process to load the ML model to the target inference function, the ML model loading processing comprising a progress status attribute indicative of a progress of loading the ML model to the target inference function; and create a Managed Object Instance (MOI) of the ML model under an MOI of the target inference function based on completion of the loading of the ML model to the target inference function.
