    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a network to notify user equipment device (UE) whether a network slice the UE has requested is subject to a quota. An AMF of the network may inform the UE if an allowed slice(s) is subject to quota management as part of a registration procedure via a registration accept and/or a UE configuration update command. In addition to providing information regarding whether an S-NSSAI is subject to quota management, the AMF may also share the percent of quota availability to the UE. The UE may implement access control logic based on the received available quota for a particular network slice.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for performing network slice quota management. A network slice quota management function may store capacity information for one or more network slices. The network slice quota management function may receive a request for an indication of whether a network slice has additional capacity. The network slice quota management function may provide an indication of whether the network slice has additional capacity in response to the request. The capacity information may relate to the capacity of the network slice with respect to the number of wireless devices registered for the network slice, or to the capacity of the network slice with respect to the number of packet sessions established with the network slice, or both, among various possibilities.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a wireless device to re-establish a packet data network connection. The wireless device may establish a packet data network connection via a cellular link with a cellular base station. Information identifying a bearer associated with the packet data network connection may be stored by the wireless device. The wireless device may determine whether the bearer associated with the packet data network connection is active. The packet data network connection may be released by the wireless device and the wireless device may attempt to re-establish the packet data network connection if the bearer associated with the packet data network connection is determined to not be active.

    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for network slice availability based de-prioritization. An example, method includes receiving user equipment (UE) routing selection policy (URSP) information. The method further includes starting an application associated with a network slice while registered with a standalone (SA) network. The method further includes evaluating routing selection descriptor information in the URSP information to determine an availability of the network slice of the SA network. The method further includes determining whether to de-prioritize the SA network based on a determination of availability of the network slice as indicated by the routing selection descriptor information.
