Delay profile based model input for ai/ml

Abstract

Methods and systems are described for use of Delay Profile as an input for AI/ML models. The present disclosure includes solutions to only use DP as AI/ML model input, e.g. where the DP only contains the timing value of multiple received paths. In comparison to PDP, no received power values are needed as model input. Evaluation results demonstrate that AI/ML model performance is maintained with only small degradation when compared to PDP used as model input. Substantially reduced model input size gives significant advantage to AI/IL models under the present disclosure. For example, the measurement burden is reduced significantly. This benefit exists regardless of whether the measurements need to be signaled from one entity to another entity. Furthermore, when the measurements of model input need to be sent from one entity to another entity, the signaling overhead is significantly reduced.
