Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a network to notify user equipment device (UE) whether a network slice the UE has requested is subject to a quota. An AMF of the network may inform the UE if an allowed slice(s) is subject to quota management as part of a registration procedure via a registration accept and/or a UE configuration update command. In addition to providing information regarding whether an S-NSSAI is subject to quota management, the AMF may also share the percent of quota availability to the UE. The UE may implement access control logic based on the received available quota for a particular network slice.
