Artificial intelligence model delivery via radio control plane

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a user equipment comprising at least one processor from a radio access network node, a control channel message comprising control channel information and artificial intelligence model information, wherein the control channel information and the artificial intelligence model information are received from the radio access network node via at least one radio resource control signal message;
• decoding, by the user equipment, the control channel information according to a first decoding format corresponding to a first encoding format to result in decoded control channel information;
• decoding, by the user equipment, the artificial intelligence model information according to a second decoding format corresponding to a second encoding format to result in decoded artificial intelligence model information, wherein the at least one radio resource control signal message comprises at least one radio resource control signal message format indication indicative of the second encoding format;
• updating, by the user equipment, a trained artificial intelligence learning model based on the artificial intelligence model information to result in an updated trained artificial intelligence learning model;
• operating, by the user equipment, a radio function according to the updated trained artificial intelligence learning model,
• wherein the at least one radio resource control signal message comprises a first portion used to transmit the control channel information and a second portion used to transmit the artificial intelligence model information, wherein the at least one radio resource control signal message format indication is indicative of at least one control channel signal segment used to transmit the trained artificial intelligence learning model in the second portion of the radio resource control signal message, wherein the at least one radio resource control signal message format indication is indicative of retransmission, by the radio access network node of at least one of the at least one control channel signal segment, being enabled, and wherein the method further comprises:
• determining, by the user equipment, that at least one of the at least one control channel signal segment was decoded with an error;
• transmitting, by the user equipment to the radio access network node, at least one retransmission request message comprising a request for retransmission of the at least one of the at least one control channel signal segment that was decoded with the error;
• receiving, by the user equipment, at least one retransmitted segment corresponding to the at least one of the at least one control channel signal segment that was decoded with the error;
• and
• decoding the at least one retransmitted segment according to the second decoding format to result in at least one decoded retransmitted segment.
