Abstract: A device may include a processor configured to receive an indication from a subscriber management device that a user equipment (UE) device has attached to a second core network, wherein the device is in a core network associated with a Radio Access Network. The processor may be configured to subscribe with a second network exposure device in the second core network to receive telemetry information notifications for the UE device, in response to receiving the indication; receive a telemetry information notification for the UE device from the second network exposure device; and report telemetry information obtained from the received telemetry information notification to a server device associated with the UE device

Abstract: A system described herein may receive a request for Quality of Service (“QoS”) parameter information associated with a particular User Equipment (“UE”). The system may include an exposure element of a core of a wireless network, such as a Network Exposure Function (“NEF”) or a Service Capability Exposure Function (“SCEF”). The system may indicate, to a user information repository of the wireless network, such as a Unified Data Management function (“UDM”) or a Unified Data Repository (“UDR”), that QoS parameter information associated with the particular UE should be provided. The system may receive, based on the indicating, particular QoS parameter information associated with the particular UE, and may output the received particular QoS parameter information associated with the particular UE in response to the request or may push such information as the QoS parameter information is updated.

Abstract: A computer device may include a memory storing instructions and processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a session request from an application function (AF) device for a user equipment (UE) device and select a network slice based on the AF device. The computer device may be further configured to send a slice selection trigger to an Access and Mobility Function device for the UE device in response to selecting the network slice, wherein the slice selection trigger includes an instruction to UE device to request the selected network slice; receive a notification from a User Plane Function device associated with the selected slice, wherein the notification identifies a Packet Data Unit session between the UPF device and the UE device; and instruct the AF device to start a session with the UE device via the identified PDU session.

Abstract: A network device receives a network service request, for network service in a mobile network, from a user equipment device (UE), where the network service request includes a first service identifier (ID) and a subscription concealed ID (SUCI). The network device sends, to a Network Function (NF) in the mobile network, a SUCI deconcealment request that includes the SUCI. The network device receives, from the NF, a deconcealed Subscription Permanent Identifier (SUPI) decrypted from the SUCI. The network device verifies a validity of the first service ID for the deconcealed SUPI, and sends a service authorization response to the UE based on verification of the validity of the service ID from the UE.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may receive an identifier associated with an application server. The network device may associate the identifier with a service profile associated with a network slice based on a quality of service associated with the network slice. The network device may provide, to a device associated with the application server, information indicating that the identifier is associated with the service profile. The network device may receive address information associated with the application server. The network device may associate the address information with the service profile. The network device may provide service profile information to a security device included in a core network to cause the security device to forward traffic transmitted by the application server toward a destination via the network slice. The service profile information may include an identifier associated with the service profile, the identifier, and the address information.

Abstract: A system described herein may receive a request to establish a communication session between a core network and a User Equipment (“UE”), determine that the requested communication session is associated with one or more admission control options and receive, from the UE, a selection of a particular admission control option of the one or more admission control options. The system may identify one or more actions associated with the particular admission control option. The one or more actions include rejecting the request to establish the communication session, or accepting the request to establish the communication session. The system may perform the one or more identified actions associated with the particular admission control option. The system may include an interface between an Access and Mobility Management Function (“AMF”) of the core network and a Network Slice Access Control Function (“NSACF”) of the core network.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a edge network exposure function service is provided. An edge network exposure function device may provide the edge network exposure function service. The edge network exposure function service may communicate with a radio access network, a mobile edge computing network, and a main edge network exposure function device to provide radio access network, end device, and control information. The edge network exposure function device may also facilitate handovers of an end device between mobile edge computing networks. The edge network exposure function device may be situated at the network edge and the main network exposure function device may be situated in a core network.

Abstract: An application function (AF) device may identify a user equipment (UE) and may send, to a network exposure function (NEF) device, a battery level request message concerning a battery of the UE. The AF device may obtain, from the NEF device, based on sending the battery level request message, a battery level report, and may cause, based on the battery level report, at least one action to be performed.
