Uplink Packet Rule Prioritization for Network Slice Selection

The terminal pre-stores multiple rules with different priorities that define correspondence between uplink packets and network slice instantiations. When a packet arrives, the terminal immediately checks against these pre-established rules without needing to perform complex real-time analysis, thus achieving reliable packet routing while minimizing processing time.

The rule set is segmented into multiple prioritized rules, each with a specific priority level. The terminal processes rules in order of priority, checking packet correspondence against each rule sequentially. This segmentation transforms a complex single-step selection problem into a series of simpler sequential checks, improving selection accuracy while managing terminal processing complexity.

Each rule is assigned a priority parameter that determines its evaluation order. The terminal uses this parameter to systematically manage multiple rules, changing the evaluation sequence based on priority levels rather than treating all rules equally. This parameter-based management enhances adaptability for different packet types while reducing information management overhead through structured prioritization.
