Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for the secure creation of application containers for 5G slices. A MEC application in a MEC layer of a 5G network can be associated with a specific network slice of the 5G network. A backhaul routing policy for the MEC application can be defined based on the association of the MEC application with the specific network slice of the 5G network. Further, a SID for the MEC application that associates the MEC application with a segment routing tunnel through a backhaul of the 5G network can be generated. A MEC layer access policy for the MEC application can be defined based on the SID for the MEC application. As follows, access to the MEC application through the 5G network can be controlled based on both the backhaul routing policy for the MEC application and the MEC layer access policy for the application.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an uplink control information sending method, an uplink control information receiving method, an apparatus, and a system. The method includes: receiving, by a terminal device, channel indication information from an access network device on a physical control channel; determining the channel resource set that is of N channel resource sets and that matches a type or a size of the UCI as a first channel resource set; determining a channel resource that is in the first channel resource set and that is indicated by the channel indication information; and sending uplink control information UCI to the access network device on the channel resource. A quantity of bits that need to be added to the channel indication information in the embodiments of the present invention is less than that in the prior art.
