Abstract
A system and associated method for enabling end-to-end (E2E) network slicing in a 5G network are described. A (Radio) Access Network-Network Slice Selection Function ((R)AN-NSSF) can be configured to receive a (R)AN slice selection request and to select, from a pool of (R)AN slice instances, a (R)AN network slice instance including one or more (R)AN slice components. A Core Network-Network Slice Selection Function (CN-NSSF) can be configured to receive a CN slice selection request to select, from a pool of CN slice instances, a CN network slice instance including one or more CN slice components. A Network Slice Policy Control (NSPC) function can be configured to verify that the selected (R)AN slice instance and CN slice instance are consistent with operator policies.
