Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which two or more UEs of a wireless communications system may establish a sidelink connection. A first UE that is initiating sidelink communications may evaluate whether the sidelink connection can support a quality of service (QoS) for a data flow prior to admitting the data flow. The first UE may evaluate a link quality with one or more other UEs that are to use the data flow on the sidelink connection, evaluate system congestion of time/frequency resources that are available for the sidelink connection, or any combinations thereof, and admit the data flow based on the evaluation. A link quality of the sidelink connection may be determined based on a type of communication associated with the data flow, such as unicast communications with one other UE, multicast communications with multiple other UEs, or broadcast transmissions to multiple UEs.

A method and an apparatus for offloading data in a wireless communication system are provided.

A method and apparatus for utilizing microslices in an enterprise wireless communication network to manage and control network performance. The microslice instances are monitored during network operation, for example at communication nodes, functional blocks, and end-to-end to provide Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). These KPI are compared with performance objectives, which may be Service Level Objectives (SLOs). If the performance objectives are not met by the KPIs, then one or more of the microslice instances may be dynamically adjusted until the performance objectives are sufficiently met. Alternatively, the lower priority microslice instances may be dropped (i.e., terminated) until the performance objectives are sufficiently met.

A data flow control method. During selection of an initial transmission path for a newly created data flow, a Flow Completion Time (FCT) for outputting the data flow through a plurality of networks are estimated, and a network corresponding to a relatively short estimated time is selected to transmit the data flow. In addition, in a data flow transmission process, a network transmission requirement of an application corresponding to a sent data packet is identified, transmission performance on a current path is evaluated based on a type of a service carried in the data flow, and whether the data flow needs to be changed is determined based on transmission performance of a link currently accessed by a terminal.
