Systems and methods for network slice selection according to application specific request

A device, comprising:

• one or more processors configured to:
• receive a first session configuration message for an application session associated with an application on a user equipment (UE) that is configured to communicate with a network,
• wherein the first session configuration message is associated with a first operation related to the application;
• determine, based on the first session configuration message, a first quality of service (QoS) profile for the application session;
• identify resources of the network to be configured to satisfy one or more QoS thresholds of the first QoS profile;
• provision a first network slice to facilitate communication of application data of the application session;
• receive a second session configuration message associated with a second operation of the application;
• determine a second QoS profile associated with the second operation;
• configure, based on one or more other QoS thresholds associated with the second QoS profile, a second network slice;
• and
• provision the second network slice for communication of application data associated with the second operation.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
• receive a first session configuration message from a user equipment (UE), for an application session,
• wherein the application session is associated with an application of the UE, and
• wherein the first session configuration message is associated with a first operation related to the application;
• identify, from the first session configuration message, a first quality of service (QoS) profile for the application session;
• determine that the application is authorized to use a first network slice of the network that satisfies one or more QoS thresholds of the first QoS profile;
• identify resources of the network to be configured to satisfy the one or more QoS thresholds;
• instantiate the resources for communication of application data of the application session,
• wherein instantiating the resources enables the UE to communicate the application data via the first network slice using the resources;
• receive a second session configuration message associated with a second operation of the application;
• determine a second QoS profile associated with the second operation;
• configure, based on one or more other QoS thresholds associated with the second QoS profile, a second network slice;
• and
• provision the second network slice for communication of application data associated with the second operation.
