Abstract: A device may include a processor. The processor may be configured to: determine whether a network demand for the device to send or receive data is below a threshold; if the network demand is below threshold, determine whether a network to which the device is wirelessly connected is congested; and when it is determined that the network is not congested, decrease processing capabilities at the device to process the network demand.

Abstract: A device may forward, to a User Equipment device (UE) over a network, an updated list of subscribed network slices; receive, from the UE, a registration request that includes a list of requested network slices; generate, based on the list of requested network slices, an updated list of allowed network slices; and send the updated list of allowed network slices to the UE. The updated list of allowed network slices may be synchronized to the updated list of subscribed network slices.

Abstract: A device described herein may maintain information associating sets of traffic attributes with respective sets of Quality of Service (“QoS”) parameters, and may receive a request to establish a traffic flow. The request may indicate one or more traffic attributes associated with the requested traffic flow. The device may compare the one or more traffic attributes, included in the request, to the information associating the sets of traffic attributes with the respective sets of QoS parameters, identify a particular set of QoS parameters with which the traffic flow is associated, establish a communication session with a network based on the particular set of QoS parameters, communicate traffic, associated with the traffic flow, with the network via the established communication session. The device may include an application programming interface (“API”) via which an application associated with the traffic flow may specify the traffic attributes in the request.

Abstract: In some implementations, a radio access network (RAN) may receive a graded quality of service (QoS) profile indicating a set of QoS profiles and corresponding observed flow data rates. The RAN may measure an observed flow data rate of traffic associated with a session. The RAN may select a QoS profile from the set of QoS profiles based on the observed flow data rate. The RAN may apply the QoS profile to the session.

Abstract: A network device, of a fifth generation (5G) radio access network, may establish a connection or a session with a user equipment connected to a Wi-Fi network. The network device may determine an indicator indicating whether a 5G network preference is in effect based on a subscription of the user equipment and may provide the indicator to the user equipment. The network device may maintain the connection or the session with the user equipment when the indicator indicates that the Wi-Fi network is not preferred for Wi-Fi offload and may receive traffic from the user equipment when the indicator indicates that the Wi-Fi network is not preferred for Wi-Fi offload.

Abstract: A system described herein may output, during a particular time window (e.g., in a simulation environment), a series of wireless transmissions to one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) of a particular type. The series of wireless transmissions may include first set of transmissions associated with a first set of parameters and a second set of transmissions associated with a second set of parameters. The system may receive channel quality measurements from the one or more UEs, and may identify a measure of variance between the channel quality measurements from the one or more UEs. The system may generate a reliability score associated with the particular type of UE based on the identified measure of variance, and may output, to a wireless network, the reliability score associated with the particular type of UE. The wireless network may communicate with UEs of the particular type based on the reliability score.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) device may include a processor configured to attempt to connect to a wireless network; detect a base station signal from a terrestrial network (TN) base station; and determine that a connection attempt to the TN base station was not successful. The processor may be further configured to designate the UE device as an interfering UE device, based on detecting the base station signal from the TN base station and determining that the connection attempt to the TN base station was not successful and connect to a non-terrestrial (NTN) base station using a sub-band mode, in response to designating the UE device as an interfering UE device.

Abstract: A gateway wirelessly connected to a mobile network receives traffic for a user equipment device (UE) connected to the gateway. A router of the gateway identifies a network slice, from a set of network slices potentially supported by the mobile network, for the traffic, and applies network address translation (NAT) policy rules to select a NAT type from multiple different NAT types to perform for the traffic based on the identified network slice. The router of the gateway performs the selected NAT type for the traffic and forwards the traffic to a gateway modem for transmitting towards the traffic's destination.

Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an EASDF secure service. The EASDF secure service may include a network-side service that may validate access and authorization to use a domain name system (DNS) resolver device, such as an edge application server discovery function. The network-side service may validate access and authorization of an end device based on tokens. The EASDF secure service may include an end device-side service that includes a token with a DNS query to the DNS resolver device. The end device-side service may further provide authorization regarding access and use of applications, networks, and application devices that host applications and/or assets by the end device at the end device. The end device-side service may determine access and/or authorization based on tokens and a validation procedure performed at the end device.

The method may also include determining if the UE device has exceeded the data throughput threshold over a first period of time.

Abstract: A device, such as a User Equipment (“UE”), may identify that the device is communicatively coupled to a wireless network via a particular network slice. The particular network slice may be associated with a particular set of Quality of Service (“QoS”) parameters, Service Level Agreements (“SLAs”), or the like. The UE may determine the particular network slice based on a slice identifier provided by a network interface of the device, based on attributes of traffic sent or received via the wireless network, and/or based on attributes of a wireless connection between the device and the wireless network. The device may identify a slice indicator associated with the particular network slice, and may present the slice indicator via a user interface of the device. The presented slice indicator may notify a user of the device that the particular network slice is being used for traffic sent or received via the device.

The system may receive communication session information, associated with the particular network slice, from the network, and may provide the communication session information to the application. The application may use the communication session information to communicate with the network via the particular network slice. The application may use such communication session information without providing an application identifier to the network.

Abstract: A network device may receive an indication to enable sub-band full duplex uplink transmission for a first user equipment (UE), and may determine whether the first UE and a second UE are associated with a separation that is more than a threshold separation. The network device may enable the sub-band full duplex uplink transmission for the first UE based on determining that the first UE and the second UE are associated with a separation that is more than the threshold separation. The network device may deny the sub-band full duplex uplink transmission for the first UE based on determining that the first UE and the second UE are associated with a separation that is less than the threshold separation.
