    Abstract: Systems and method are directed towards dynamically determining how to provision networking services. First and second user plane functions are initialized for first and second service areas, respectively. The second service area and the first service area share an overlap area. A request is received from a user equipment to connect to a network, and a location of the user equipment is identified. Determination is made whether the location is in the overlap area. In response to the location being in the overlap area, a first load of the first user plane function and a second load of the second user plane function are determined. In response to the first load exceeding the second load, the user equipment is connected to the second user plane function. In response to the second load exceeding the first load, the user equipment is connected to the first user plane function.

    Abstract: Various systems and methods for cellular network slice management are presented. An application may be determined to be authorized to manage a cellular network slice utilized by the application for communication with user equipment. A request can be received from the application to modify the cellular network slice from the application. In response to the request, a parameter of the cellular network slice may be modified. The cellular network can then use the modified slice for communication with user equipment for the cloud-based application.

    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. A machine learning arrangement can be used to determine a duration of time for which the physical cellular communication channel is to be kept active. A channel maintenance instruction may be transmitted to keep the physical cellular communication channel active based on a cellular network messaging controller making the determination.

    Abstract: A system and method for performing a Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure is provided. The method includes configuring a plurality of Bandwidths Parts (BWPs) to one or more Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) occasions mapped to a public land mobile network identification (PLMN-ID) of a set of different PLMN-IDs, each different PLMN-ID is assigned with at least one operator of a set of operators; assigning each PRACH occasion within an uplink (UL) transmission wherein each PRACH occasion is allocated by the host operator to at least one operator; separating each PRACH occasion of a set of PRACH occasions based on each PLMN-ID of the set of PLMN-IDs; and enabling a User Equipment (UE) operating at a cell site of the RACH procedure via at least one PRACH occasion allocated by the host operator based on the PLMN-ID that has been mapped to subscribers for at least one operator.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed a system that monitors a plurality of relevant network conditions of a wireless cellular network. Over time, the system records a plurality of network snapshots based on the monitoring. Each network snapshot reflects a status of each applicable network condition at a respective point in time at which the snapshot was recorded. The system then generates a respective visual network topology map for each network snapshot through which the status of each network characteristic at the point time at which the snapshot was recorded is accessible. The system connects together each network snapshot resulting in a visual chronological historical record of the status of the network at each point time at which the snapshot was recorded reflected by each respective network topology map.

    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 to be 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: An example system and method may manage interference for wireless devices in a non-terrestrial network environment. An example system may determine spectrum blanking ranges for a wireless client device, where the spectrum blanking range restricts wireless frequencies in the spectrum blanking range from being assigned to wireless client devices by ground node. The system may determine a signal quality indicator value for a wireless client device, determine an assignable spectrum range for the wireless client device based on the signal quality indicator value and the spectrum blanking range(s), and assign a channel to the wireless client device using the assignable spectrum range.
