Abstract

Methods and systems for altering user equipment (UE) capability on network slices are disclosed. According to an implementation, one or more network slices may be established in a fifth generation (5G) environment. The one or more network slices may correspond to one or more services requested by a user through a UE. During registration, a node B of the 5G network may send an enquiry for capabilities to the UE. Upon receiving the enquiry, the UE may transmit information associated with the capabilities to the node B. In some circumstances, the UE may alter the capabilities on a particular network slice. The UE may transmit a request to the node B, requesting the node B to use altered capabilities on the particular network slice without awaiting or requesting an enquiry to report altered capabilities.
