US 2022/0104142 A1 · MPE HANDLING IN OVER-THE-AIR GRADIENT VECTOR AGGREGATION FOR FEDERATED LEARNING

Abstract

This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for managing MPE conditions in over-the-air gradient vector aggregation for federated learning. A UE may receive a federated learning model from a base station for participating in a federated learning procedure with the base station. The UE may update the federated learning model for an iteration of the federated learning procedure based on whether an uplink transmission would cause an MPE threshold to be exceeded. The uplink transmission may have a Tx power level that corresponds to a configured Rx power level at the base station. The UE may drop the uplink transmission if the uplink transmission would cause the MPE threshold to be exceeded.

Dependent claims

An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

a memory;
and
at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
receive a federated learning (FL) model from a base station for participation in an FL procedure with the base station;
update the FL model for an iteration of the FL procedure, the update based on whether an uplink transmission would cause a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) threshold to be exceeded, the uplink transmission having a transmit (Tx) power level that corresponds to a configured receive (Rx) power level at the base station;
and
drop the uplink transmission if the uplink transmission would cause the MPE threshold to be exceeded.
