  • Publication number: 20230209491
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a traffic descriptor that includes a character string corresponding to an application of the UE. In some cases, the character string may be encoded to represent a sequence of characters in the character string to index or match applications to different network slices for communications for the UE. For example, the character string may be encoded using American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) encoding. After receiving and decoding the encoded traffic descriptor, the UE may identify a matching network slice for the application corresponding to the character string of the traffic descriptor. Subsequently, the UE may attempt to establish a connection with the matching network slice for communications for the application and may communicate with the matching network slice for the application based on a successful establishment of the connection.

  • Publication number: 20230180310
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may attempt to establish a data session with a base station. The UE may transmit one or more session request messages including one or more route selection descriptors (RSDs) to the base station, and the UE may determine a successful RSD that may be compatible with the network based on a session accept message received from the base station. The UE may store the successful RSD at a location in memory for use in future session establishment procedures. For example, the UE may go out of service, and may re-acquire service with the same network. In such cases, the UE may transmit a session request message including the previously-accepted RSD to re-establish a data session with the base station.
