1. A method, comprising:
at a fifth-generation core network (5GC) providing 5G radio access network (RAN) services to a user equipment (UE) in a time-sensitive communications (TSC) network (TSN):
receiving a protocol data unit (PDU) session establishment request from the UE;
identifying a TSN application function (AF) for the PDU session;
determining quality of service (QoS) parameters for communications between the UE and the 5G RAN based on the identified TSN AF, the QoS parameters including a survival time provided by the TSN AF in a message container; and
establishing a PDU session with the UE when the QoS parameters including the survival time are satisfied.
