Abstract: A system described herein may identify Quality of Service (“QoS”) information associated with a User Equipment (“UE”) that is connected to a radio access network (“RAN”) of a wireless network. The QoS information may include or may be based on a network slice identifier, a QoS value, a Service Level Agreement (“SLA”), a model associated with UE attributes, or other suitable information. The system may determine a time division duplex (“TDD”) configuration for the UE based on the identified QoS information and/or models that associate UE attributes to TDD configurations. The system may implement the determined TDD configuration at the RAN. The UE and the RAN may communicate with each other according to the implemented TDD configuration, which may include particular timing information for uplink and downlink communications between the UE and the RAN.

Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for allocation and/or preemption of radio access network (“RAN”) resources in a wireless network based on Quality of Service (“QoS”)-related metrics associated with User Equipment (“UEs”) that are connected to, and/or are requesting connection to, a RAN. QoS-related metrics may include a network slice, a QoS Flow Identifier (“QFI”), other suitable metrics. A Slice-Based Priority (“SBP”) determine one or more priority (e.g., SBP) values for UEs connected to the one or more RANs, and/or for UEs requesting connection to such RANs. In addition to QoS-related metrics priority values may be determined based on RAN-related metrics, such as Allocation and Retention Priority (“ARP”) values associated with a UE. RANs may accordingly be able to allocate resources, accept or deny connection requests, and/or perform preemption based at least partly on slice-related QoS metrics, thus preserving end-to-end QoS parameters.
