The described technology is generally directed towards network slice pre-configuration for cellular communication systems, including 5G and subsequent generation cellular communication systems. Network equipment can be preconfigured to identify whether a network slice identifier included in a network communication belongs to a group of network slice identifiers. If so, the network equipment can process the network communication either according to a network slice rule that corresponds specifically to the network slice identifier, or according to a default group network slice rule for the group to which the network slice identifier belongs. Different groups of network slice identifiers can be associated with different sets of group network slice rules which can be arranged to reduce the work of setting up network slice identifiers in various network slicing scenarios.

A wireless communications system includes a feedback processing unit for analyzing captured bandwidth data from a remote radio head, and a problem-type processor in operable communication with the feedback processing unit. The problem-type processor is configured to (i) analyze the captured bandwidth data to determine whether the captured bandwidth data presents one of a computational polynomial time problem and a non-deterministic polynomial-time hard (NP-hard) problem, and (ii) transmit problem-specific data based on the determination. The system further includes a communications processor in operable communication with the problem-type processor. The communications processor is configured to process polynomial time problem data from the transmitted problem-specific data. The system further includes a quantum computer in operable communication with the problem-type processor. The quantum computer is configured to process NP-hard problem data received from the transmitted problem-specific data.
