Federated learning for client-specific neural network parameter generation for wireless communication

A method of wireless communication performed by a server, comprising:

• receiving, from a client, an observed environmental vector associated with one or more features associated with an environment of the client;
• receiving, from the client via a physical uplink control channel or a physical uplink shared channel, a latent vector that is based at least in part on a set of client-specific encoder parameters and an observed wireless communication vector, the observed wireless communication vector being associated with a wireless communication task;
• determining the observed wireless communication vector based at least in part on the latent vector and the observed environmental vector;
• and
• performing a wireless communication action based at least in part on determining the observed wireless communication vector.

An apparatus for wireless communication at a client, comprising:

• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors configured to cause the apparatus to:
• determine, using a conditioning network, a set of client-specific encoder parameters based at least in part on an observed environmental vector, the observed environmental vector being associated with one or more features associated with an environment of the client;
• determine a latent vector using an autoencoder and based at least in part on the set of client-specific encoder parameters and an observed wireless communication vector, the observed wireless communication vector being associated with a wireless communication task;
• and
• transmit the observed environmental vector and the latent vector using a physical uplink control channel or a physical uplink shared channel.
