Abstract
The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to support native artificial intelligence model approaches in wireless communication systems.
Claims20
A method of operating a device comprising:
- generating a radio resource control (RRC) model request that indicates a scenario, a channel, traffic, or a mobility status related to the device;
- transmitting the RRC model request to a base station;
- identifying an RRC model response received from the base station with an indication of an artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) model for the device;
- and
- implementing the AI/ML model indicated by the RRC model response.
2 more elements
One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a base station to:
- receive a radio resource control (RRC) model request from a device, the RRC model request indicating a scenario, a channel, traffic, or a mobility status related to the device;
- select a function based on the scenario, the function being a real-time artificial intelligence function (RTAIF) or a non real-time artificial intelligence function (NRTAIF);
- use the function to identify an artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) model for the device based on the channel, the traffic, or the mobility status indicated by the RRC model request;
- generate an RRC model response that indicates a model identifier (ID) corresponding to the AI/ML model;
- and
- transmit the RRC model response to the device.
3 more elements
A radio access network (RAN) infrastructure comprising:
- a radio access network model repository function (RMRF) structure to store artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) models;
- a radio access network model coordination function (RMCF) structure to manage the AI/ML models, the RMRF structure and the RMCF structure arranged in a service based system architecture and addressable via hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) signaling;
- and
- a base station coupled to the RMRF structure and the RMCF structure, the base station to communicate with one or more user equipments (UEs) to share the AI/ML models.
