Abstract: A wireless communication system delivers a data service to a wireless User Equipment (UE). A network controller exchanges UE signaling with the wireless UE and transfers UE information to a Network Exposure Function (NEF). The NEF transfers network information that indicates Quality-of-Service (QoS) levels and cost levels for the UE to a user data system. The NEF receives user selections from the user data system that indicate a selected QoS level and a selected cost level. The NEF indicates the selected QoS level to the network controller. The NEF indicates the selected cost level to a Charging Function (CHF). The network controller directs network elements to transfer UE data for the UE using the selected QoS level. The network elements transfer the user data for the UE using the selected QoS level. The CHF generates charging data for the UE based on the selected cost level.

Abstract: A wireless communication network serves a wireless User Equipment (UE). The wireless UE exchanges user data over a data session of a Dynamic Network Name (DNN) while exchanging other user data over other data sessions of other DNNs. An Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) receives a DNN message for the wireless UE and the DNN and responsively transfers a reattach message for the data session of the DNN to the wireless UE. The wireless UE receives the reattach message and responsively terminates the data session of the DNN and transfers a session message for the DNN to the AMF. The AMF receives the session message for the DNN and the wireless UE and responsively establishes a new data session for the DNN. The wireless UE exchanges new user data over the new data session of the DNN while exchanging additional user data over the other data sessions of the other DNNs.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to mechanisms for proximity service (ProSe) authorization and provisioning. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to support ProSe communication and may indicate this capability to a radio access network (RAN) and a core network during registration of the UE. Based on the ProSe indication, the RAN may select an access and mobility management function (AMF) that supports ProSe authorization and policy provisioning and forward a registration request indicating the UE supports ProSe communication to the selected AMF. Upon authorizing the UE for ProSe operation, the AMF may transmit a registration accept message including a ProSe supported indication to the UE. The UE may then initiate a ProSe session with another UE based on the ProSe supported indication in the registration accept message.
