Techniques are described herein for network slice support of respective transport protocols. In one example, a session management function obtains, from a user equipment, a request for a network slice identifier in a network that includes a plurality of network slices each configured to support a respective transport protocol. In response to the request, the session management function identifies a first transport protocol of the respective transport protocols by which the user equipment is to communicate. Based on the first transport protocol, the session management function identifies a first network slice of the plurality of network slices by which the user equipment is to communicate. The first network slice is configured to support the first transport protocol. The session management function provides the network slice identifier to the user equipment. The network slice identifier corresponds to the first network slice.

Presented herein are methodologies for managing a citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) network. The methodology includes receiving, at an enterprise controller, measurement information from a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE, wherein the first UE and the second UE operate in a citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) network; selecting, at the enterprise controller, an information aggregation level based on a predetermined level of privacy associated with the first UE and the second UE; aggregating, at the enterprise controller, the measurement information from the first UE and the second UE in accordance with the information aggregation level to obtain aggregated measurement information; and sending, by the enterprise controller, the aggregated measurement information to a Spectrum Access System that controls allocation of resources in the CBRS network for the first UE and the second UE.

An information transmission method and apparatus, the method including determining, by a first communications apparatus, an area in which a terminal device is located, where the area includes overlapping coverage area between the first communications apparatus and at least one second communications apparatus, and, non-overlapping coverage area between the first communications apparatus and the at least one second communications apparatus, and the first communications apparatus is adjacent to the at least one second communications apparatus, and sending, by the first communications apparatus, information to the terminal device through a first channel if the terminal device is located in the overlapping coverage area, and sending, by the first communications apparatus, information to the terminal device through a second channel if the terminal device is located in the non-overlapping coverage areas.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for partitioning of time-frequency resources for types of traffic separately. A centralized scheduler in a centralized system or a set of access nodes (ANs) in a distributed system may allocate a portion of a set of resources for a first traffic type (e.g., control or data traffic). In some cases, multiple ANs may exchange reports or measurements to determine the resources to allocate to a given traffic type. The allocated resources may be repurposed for use by a different traffic type (e.g., data traffic resources may be repurposed an used for control traffic resources) in order to account for varying traffic conditions (e.g., unscheduled control traffic).

In a mobile communication system being configured to comprise network slice instances and network subnet slice instances, a network entity performs identifier mapping in connection with services provided. In the identifier mapping operation, the network device receives a first identifier of a first network service. It then generates a second identifier of a second network service, and maps the second identifier to the first identifier. One of the first identifier and the second identifier is a network slice instance ID (NSI-ID).

Techniques are described herein for providing radio resource ownership indicators in charging records for a charging function. In one example, a method may include determining, by a session management node of a mobile network, that a user equipment is utilizing a particular radio resource of a mobile network resource for a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session of the user equipment, wherein the mobile network resource is capable of being utilized via a plurality of radio resources and the particular radio resources is associated with an enterprise entity; and reporting charging information for the PDU session of the user equipment to a charging function of the mobile network to facilitate storing a charging record for the user equipment that is to include an identifier of the enterprise entity that is associated with the particular radio resource.

During handover of a radio terminal (1) from a first network to a second network, a target RAN node (3) is operates to: receive, from a core network (5), slice information about a network slice which is included in the second network and to which the radio terminal (1) is to be connected; create, upon receiving the slice information, radio resource configuration information that is to be used by the radio terminal (1) after the handover in the second network; and transmit this radio resource configuration information through the first network to the radio terminal (1). It is possible to contribute to appropriately configuring an AS layer or NAS layer of a target RAT in inter-RAT handover.
