The described technology is generally directed towards adaptive spectrum as a service, in which spectrum can be dynamically allocated to adapt to demand for wireless capacity. The demand for wireless capacity can be based on monitoring system state, and/or proactively predicted based on other system state such as time of day. Reallocated spectrum can be monitored for performance, to converge spectrum allocation to a more optimal state. Allocated spectrum can be relocated, increased or decreased, including by the use of citizens band radio service spectrum or other spectrum. Currently allocated spectrum can be adapted into modified allocated spectrum by an application program (xApp) coupled to a radio access network intelligent controller (RIC), a citizens broadband radio service device, a domain proxy service, and/or a user device.

Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for user plane function (UPF) and network slice load balancing within a 5G network. Example embodiments include systems and methods for load balancing based on current UPF load and thresholds that depend on UPF capacity; UPF load balancing using predicted throughput of new UE on the network based on network data analytics; UPF load balancing based on special considerations for low latency traffic; UPF load balancing supporting multiple slices, maintaining several load-thresholds for each UPF and each slice depending on the UPF and network slice capacity; and UPF load balancing using predicted central processing unit (CPU) utilization and/or predicted memory utilization of new UE on the network based on network data analytics.

A method of providing information responsive to a request from a wireless communication device involves receiving an information request from a mobile device and generating responsive information for the information request, transmitting a first portion of the responsive information to the mobile device in a first communication session, and transmitting a second portion of the responsive information to the mobile device in a second, overloaded communication session.

The present disclosure relates to a load balancing for a control in a wireless communication system. According to a various embodiments of the present disclosure, a method for operating a base station in a wireless communication system comprises determining a mobility of a terminal, and responsive to the mobility exceeding a threshold, transmitting, to the terminal, a message for requesting the terminal to process a control plane of the terminal with at least one other base station.

A method of radio bearer establishment in dual connectivity, for a first base station in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method comprises determining whether to establish or release at least a radio bearer for the communication device on at least a second base station, transmitting a request message including information of the at least a radio bearer to be established or released on the at least a second base station, to the at least a second base station, and receiving a response message including information about accepting or rejecting establishment or release for the at least a radio bearer on the at least a second base station, from the at least a second base station.

Disclosed are various embodiments for provisioning radio-based networks on demand. In one embodiment, a request to provision a radio-based network to cover an area is received. At least one radio access network operated by at least one communication service provider that covers the area is determined. A capacity is provisioned in the radio access network(s) for the radio-based network to cover the area. At least a portion of a core network is provisioned for the radio-based network in a cloud provider network.

A method for interfacing a gateway with an application server includes (1) receiving, at a control system, first downlink data from the application server, and (2) steering the first downlink data from the control system to the gateway via at least one of a plurality of parallel data communication links between the gateway and the control system, according to a first steering policy.

Disclosed are various embodiments for on-demand application-driven network slicing. In one embodiment, it is determined that an application implemented in a particular computing device has an increased quality-of-service requirement in order to send or receive data via a communications network. The increased quality-of-service requirement is greater than an existing quality-of-service provided to the application by the communications network. The application sends a request that causes capacity in a network slice having the increased quality-of-service requirement in the communications network to be allocated for the application. The data is transmitted to or from the application using the network slice.

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing optimization of network resources. The system is operable to monitor the electromagnetic environment, analyze the electromagnetic environment, and extract environmental awareness of the electromagnetic environment. The system extracts the environmental awareness of the electromagnetic environment by including customer goals. The system is operable to use the environmental awareness with the customer goals and/or user defined policies and rules to extract actionable information to help the customer optimize the network resources.

A network device receives, from a policy control function (PCF), at least one set of multiple user equipment device (UE)-location based conditional policy rules. The network device selects a first one of the multiple UE-location based conditional policy rules based on a first geographic location of a first UE, and controls data traffic associated with the first UE using the selected first one of the plurality of UE-location based conditional policy rules.
