Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus configured to obtain, from user equipment-level operating statistics from a radio access network, network slice-level operating statistics concerning plural network slices in the radio access network, update, using a plurality of processes, each process specific to a distinct network slice, network slice specific cost indices based at least in part on the network slice-level operating statistics, each cost index indicating a relative resource cost of increasing a radio resource allocation of a respective network slice, each process running a distinct neural network to update the respective cost index, determine, based on the cost indices, radio resource configurations for the plural network slices, and control the radio access network to provide radio resources to the plural network slices according to the determined radio resource configurations.

Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus configured to receive, from an access network comprised in a first cellular network, a first network slice identity of a first network slice which is accessible via the access network, determine, based on the first network slice identity, that the first network slice is, in part, serviced in a core network of a second cellular network, and provide to the access network a request for the apparatus to be registered on the first network slice.

Abstract: There is provided a method for radio access network slicing. A first set of radio access network, RAN, statistics and a second set of RAN statistics are received. The first set of RAN statistics comprises non real time statistics from the RAN. The second set of RAN statistics comprises near real time statistics from the RAN. The first set of RAN statistics and a service level agreement are provided to a non real time reinforcement learning model as input. Resource management policy per slice is obtained as output from the model. The second set of RAN statistics, the service level agreement and the resource management policy per slice are provided to a near real time reinforcement learning model as input. Resource allocation per slice is obtained as output from the model.
