Network node such as base station for handling modulation and coding scheme (MCS) related information and method therefor

A device of a base station comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• at least one processor for executing the instructions;
• and
• at least one transceiver coupled to the at least one processor,
• wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
• acquire channel related information of a target user equipment (UE);
• identify whether the target UE corresponds to a first type UE or a second type UE based on at least one of the channel related information or position information of the target UE;
• in case that the target UE corresponds to the first type UE, acquire a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) based on MCS related information, wherein the MCS related information is obtained based on a first artificial intelligence (AI) network using the channel related information;
• and
• transmit the MCS to the target UE,
• wherein the number of available MCS change values of the first type UE is greater than the number of available MCS change values of the second type UE.

A network node, comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry, for executing the instructions;
• and
• at least one transceiver coupled to the at least one processor,
• wherein the at least one processor is individually and/or collectively configured to:
• acquire channel related information of a target user equipment (UE);
• acquire, by an AI network, modulation and coding scheme (MCS) related information corresponding to the target UE based on the channel related information;
• and
• transmit the MCS related information to a base station, and
• wherein the MCS Related information is used to determine an MCS for a wireless channel between the target UE and the base station,
• wherein the target UE comprises a first type UE among the first type UE and a second type UE, and
• wherein the number of available MCS change values of the first type UE is greater than the number of available MCS change values of the second type UE.
