Figure 1 The communication system shown takes one network device 10 and one terminal device 11 as an example for illustration, and the terminal device 11 can receive first configuration information from the network device 10.

[0069] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can also be referred to as a terminal, a user equipment (UE), an access terminal, a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a mobile station, a mobile, a remote station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a user terminal, a user agent, or a user device.

In the present application, the network device can also be referred to as a radio access network device, and if not otherwise specified, the radio access network device refers to the network device.

[0071] With the development of AI technology, applying AI technology in a communication system can enhance the performance of the communication network and promote the automation and intelligentization of the communication network. For example, a network device can use data reported by a terminal device to train and predict an AI model. Currently, the data reported by the terminal device is obtained based on static configuration information collection and processing. The static configuration information is configured in a predefined manner and does not change. When the communication environment or resources change, the terminal device still collects and processes data according to the static configuration information, and the reported data may not meet the network requirements. Therefore, this data collection and processing manner cannot well cope with changes in the communication environment or resources, which may reduce the communication performance to some extent.

[0072] The present application provides a data acquisition method. In the data acquisition method, the terminal device receives first configuration information from the network device, and the first configuration information is used to indicate a data collection manner, a data preprocessing manner and / or a data reporting manner for a first model. The first model is an AI model used by the network device. The terminal device performs corresponding configuration according to the first configuration information. As can be seen, the terminal device can receive the first configuration information from the network device, update the configuration information of the terminal device according to the first configuration information, and then use the data collection, preprocessing and / or reporting manner in the updated configuration information to report the collected and preprocessed data to the network device. By dynamically configuring the configuration information of the terminal device by the network device, changes in the communication environment or resources can be better coped with, which is conducive to enhancing the performance of the communication network.

[0073] Based on the communication system and device introduced in the above content, the present application provides a data acquisition method. Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 A flowchart of a data acquisition method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. The data acquisition method includes steps 201-203, wherein:

[0074] 201. The network device obtains first configuration information for a first model.

[0075] In the present application, the network device can train and use multiple AI models. It should be noted that the present application takes the AI model used by the network device as the first model as an example for explanation. The first model is any AI model in the multiple AI models used by the network device. The first configuration information is configuration information obtained by the network device according to the first model. The first configuration information is used to indicate a data collection manner, a preprocessing manner and a reporting manner of the terminal device for the first model. It should be noted that the present application takes the first model as an example for explanation.

[0076] The first configuration information can include one or more of the four indication information. The first indication information is used to indicate the first model. For example, the first indication information can include an AI model index, an AI model configuration index, and a use case id.

[0077] The second indication information is used to indicate a data collection method. For example, the second indication information can include a data collection frequency of the terminal device, and a data collection interval.

[0078] The third indication information is used to indicate a data preprocessing method. For example, the third indication information can include a step of preprocessing the collected data and a specific operation of each step, such as data cleaning.

[0079] The fourth indication information is used to indicate a data reporting method. For example, the fourth indication information can include a data reporting period and a data reporting times.

[0080] It should be noted that if the first indication information indicates the first model, the second indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information are all indication information for the first model. That is, the second indication information is indication information indicating a data collection method of the first model, the third indication information is indication information indicating a data preprocessing method of the first model, and the fourth indication information is indication information indicating a data reporting method of the first model.

[0081] The first configuration information can be obtained from the preset configuration information according to the accuracy requirement of the first model, the processing capability of the terminal device, the limited situation of air interface resources, and the like. The first configuration information can also be obtained from the preset configuration information based on one index. The first configuration information can also be calculated based on one or more of the above indexes according to a preset algorithm. The first configuration information can also be received from other devices. The application does not limit the obtaining method of the first configuration information.

[0082] In a possible implementation, after obtaining the indication information in the first configuration information, the network device sends the first configuration information to the terminal device in a preset format. The preset format can be as follows:

[0083]

[0084] The first indication information can include a use case id. The use case id is a use case identifier, which indicates an AI function use case to which the first configuration information is applied, and an AI model identifier used by the AI function use case. For example, if the use case id is 3, it indicates that the use case id of the first model is 3, and the second indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information in the first configuration information are all data collection modes, preprocessing modes, and reporting modes corresponding to the use case id 3. If the first indication information is default, it can mean that the second indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information in the first configuration information can be applied to all AI function use cases.

[0085] In a possible implementation, the first indication information has two representation modes. The first representation mode is a model identifier. For example, there are three models related to positioning: model1, model2, and model3. When the use case id in the first indication information is 3, the first indication information can indicate that the first model used by the network device is the model3 related to positioning. The second representation mode is a combination identifier of a function and a model. For example, the positioning use case id is 01, the channel estimation use case id is 02, and the channel coding use case id is 03. The model id related to the positioning function is 01, 02, and 03. The model id related to the channel estimation and the channel coding is 01, 02, and 03. The first indication information can be 0101, which can indicate that the first model used by the network device is the model 01 related to positioning.

[0086] In a possible implementation, the first indication information in the first configuration information can also indicate a second model, which is a model used by the terminal device. It can be understood that the terminal device can also use an AI model to implement a network function and / or collect and preprocess data. Therefore, the first indication information can also indicate that the terminal device adjusts the AI model used by the terminal device according to the second model.

[0087] The second indication information can include a sampling frequency / interval. The sampling frequency / interval can be used to indicate a sampling frequency and a sampling duration when the terminal device collects data of the first model. For example, for the first model, the terminal device collects data every 10 seconds (s), and collects data for 1 s each time.

[0088] The third indication information can include a data preprocessing step, which is used to indicate a step of preprocessing data of the first model by the terminal. For example, the preprocessing step can include data cleaning, feature extraction, data compression, and the like.

[0089] The fourth indication information can include a data reporting dimension, a data reporting period, and a data reporting times. The data reporting dimension field is used to indicate the types and quantities of indexes that the terminal device needs to collect / measure and upload for the first model. For example, for a positioning function model as the first model, the second indication information indicates that the information reported by the terminal can include types and quantities of measurement information such as reference signal received power, reference signal received quality, and the like. The data reporting period is used to indicate the period of data reporting by the terminal device. For example, for the first model, the terminal device can perform data reporting once every 5 s; for another example, for the first model, the terminal device can perform data reporting once non-periodically. The data reporting times is used to indicate the number of times of data reporting by the terminal device. For example, for the first model, the terminal device needs to report 100 times and stop continuing reporting after 100 times of reporting. It can be understood that when the data reporting times is reached, the default setting can be restored, or the data reporting times configured by the last configuration information can be restored, or the network device can be negotiated to request the network device to send configuration information, which is not limited in the present application.

[0090] In a possible implementation, the first configuration information further includes a configuration effective time. The configuration effective time can be a relative time, that is, the first configuration information is valid within the timing duration of a timer; or the configuration effective time can be an absolute time, that is, the first configuration information is valid before a certain time. It can be understood that after the expiration of the valid period, the terminal device can restore the default setting, or restore the data collection mode, preprocessing mode, and reporting mode in the last configuration information, or negotiate with the network device to request the network device to send configuration information, which is not limited in the present application.

[0091] In the above-mentioned configuration information, optional indicates that the field can be default, and if a field is default, it means that the field applies the default indication information of the static configuration information. For example, if the field of the sampling related {sampling frequency / interval} in the first configuration information is default, the terminal device can extract the sampling frequency / interval corresponding to the use case id from the static configuration information locally.

[0092] 202. The terminal device receives the first configuration information from the network device.

[0093] In a possible implementation, when the terminal device is in a connected state (RRC Connected), the network device can send the first configuration information to the terminal device through radio resource control (RRC) signaling, and the terminal device can update the configuration information by receiving an RRC message from the network device, and the RRC message includes the first configuration information.

[0094] In a possible implementation, the terminal device receives an RRC release message from the network device when in the connected state (RRC Connected), and the RRC release message includes the first configuration information. Further, the terminal device releases the link and switches to the idle state (RRC IDLE) or the inactive state (RRC Inactive) after receiving the RRC release message. Thus, the terminal device in the idle state (RRC IDLE) or the inactive state (RRC Inactive) can orderly participate in the training and prediction of the AI model, and the accuracy of the AI function can be improved.

[0095] It can be understood that the first configuration information obtained by the network device for the terminal device in the connected state and the terminal device about to enter the idle state / inactive state can be the same or different.

[0096] 203. The terminal device configures according to the first configuration information.

[0097] In a possible implementation, when the terminal device is in the connected state and receives the first configuration information, the terminal device can return a receiving message to the network device, and the receiving response message indicates that the terminal device confirms the first configuration information.

[0098] In a possible implementation, the terminal device updates the data collection manner, the data preprocessing manner, and / or the data reporting manner of the first model based on the received first configuration information. The terminal device currently stores the data collection manner, the data preprocessing manner, and / or the data reporting manner of the first model in the static configuration information, or the data collection manner, the data preprocessing manner, and / or the data reporting manner of the first model after the last update of the first configuration information sent by the network device.

[0099] For example, the data collection manner of the first model in the static configuration information is updated using the data collection manner in the first configuration information; the data preprocessing manner of the first model in the static configuration information is updated using the data preprocessing manner in the first configuration information; and the data reporting manner of the first model in the static configuration information is updated using the data reporting manner in the first configuration information. If a field in the first configuration information is default, the default value of the default field in the static configuration information is retained.

[0100] Further, the terminal device reports data to the network device according to the first configuration information. For example, the terminal device collects, preprocesses, and reports data to the network device according to the updated configuration information of the first model.

[0101] Specifically, the terminal device can determine the first model according to the first indication information in the first configuration information, collect data of the first model according to the data collection manner indicated by the second indication information in the first configuration information, pre-process the collected data according to the data pre-processing manner indicated by the third indication information in the first configuration information, and report the pre-processed data to the network device according to the data reporting manner indicated by the fourth indication information in the first configuration information.

[0102] For example, the network device needs to report 500 times of data as training data to the terminal device for training model3. The first configuration information sent by the network device can be as follows:

[0103]

[0104]

[0105] In the timing range of the timer, the terminal device needs to report the signal strength information of model3, the data pre-processing manner is data cleaning and feature extraction, the data collection manner is to collect data every 10s, and collect data for 1s each time, and the data reporting manner is to report 500 times. The network device can complete the training of model3 according to the data reported by the terminal device.

[0106] In a possible implementation, the first indication information in the first configuration information can also indicate a second model, which is a model used by the terminal device. For example, the terminal device can use the second model as the model corresponding to the usecaseid.

[0107] Optionally, the terminal device in the inactive state can initiate small data transmission (SDT) to report the pre-processed data to the network device.

[0108] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can receive the first configuration information from the network device, update the configuration information of the terminal device according to the first configuration information, and then use the data collection, pre-processing and / or reporting manner in the updated configuration information to report the collected and pre-processed data to the network device. By dynamically configuring the configuration information of the terminal device by the network device, the change of the communication environment or resources can be better coped with, which is beneficial to enhancing the performance of the communication network.

[0109] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 Another flowchart of a data acquisition method provided in the embodiments of the present application is shown. The data acquisition method includes steps 301-304. Wherein:

[0110] 301、The terminal device sends a configuration information obtaining request to the network device.

[0111] In a possible implementation, the terminal device can send a configuration information updating request to the network device, where the configuration information updating request is used to request obtaining the first configuration information. The first configuration information is used to indicate a data collection manner, a data preprocessing manner, and / or a data reporting manner for the first model, and the first model is an AI model used by the network device.

[0112] The configuration information obtaining request can include device capability information of the terminal device, and the configuration information obtaining request can also include data precision requirement information, and can further include other information, which is not limited in the present application.

[0113] Specifically, the device capability information of the terminal device can be used to indicate the processing capability of the current terminal device. The device processing capability information can include storage space information, and can also include CPU (central processing unit) operation capability information, terminal device thermal assistance information, and the like.

[0114] In a possible implementation, when the device processing capability is limited, the terminal device can send the configuration information obtaining request to the network device. When the device processing capability is limited, the device capability information of the terminal device can be thermal assistance information, which can indicate that the current terminal device temperature is higher than a preset temperature threshold, that is, an overheating problem occurs. The device capability information of the terminal device can also be current storage space information, which can indicate that the available storage space of the current terminal device is less than a preset storage space threshold. The device capability information of the terminal device can also be CPU operation capability information, which can indicate that the current CPU operation rate is lower than a preset operation rate threshold. The present application is not limited in this regard.

[0115] In a possible implementation, the device processing capability information can further include information of a precision of a changed AI model of the first model suggested by the terminal device, information of reducing inference calculation amount suggested by the terminal device, information of reducing transmission power suggested by the terminal device, and the like. The network device can obtain the first configuration information based on the device capability information and other information sent by the terminal device, and send the first configuration information to the terminal device, so that the terminal device performs corresponding configuration according to the first configuration information.

[0116] For example, the network device can adjust the data reporting manner of the terminal device for the first model according to the thermal auxiliary information, and the network device can reduce the amount of data reported by the terminal device, thereby reducing the transmission power of the terminal device. For another example, the network device can also reconfigure the AI model used by the terminal device, so that the terminal device replaces the currently used AI model, thereby alleviating the overheating problem of the terminal device and reducing the impact on the user experience of the terminal device.

[0117] In a possible implementation, when the terminal device changes the data precision requirement, the terminal device can send a configuration information acquisition request to the network device. For example, the terminal device needs to improve the degree of data preprocessing for privacy considerations, so as to extract data unrelated to the terminal device and report the data to the network device. Therefore, the terminal device can send current device capability information, which can include terminal device recommended data preprocessing manner, AI model precision requirement information and the like, and then the network device can acquire the first configuration information based on the device capability information sent by the terminal device, and send the first configuration information to the terminal device. Therefore, the risk of user privacy exposure can be reduced, the security of the terminal device can be enhanced, and the user experience of the terminal device can be ensured.

[0118] In a possible implementation, when the terminal device capability is not limited, the terminal device can send a configuration information acquisition request to the network device. Similarly, when the terminal capability is not limited, the terminal device can also send a configuration information acquisition request containing device capability information to the network device, and the network device can acquire the first configuration information based on the device capability information sent by the terminal device, and send the acquired first configuration information to the terminal device, so that the terminal device performs corresponding configuration according to the first configuration information.

[0119] 302. The network device acquires first configuration information for the first model.

[0120] 303. The terminal device receives the first configuration information from the network device.

[0121] 304. The terminal device performs corresponding configuration according to the first configuration information.

[0122] The specific implementation of steps 302-304 is the same as that of steps 201-203 described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0123] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can receive the first configuration information from the network device, update the configuration information of the terminal device itself according to the first configuration information, and then use the data collection, preprocessing and / or reporting mode in the updated configuration information to report the collected and preprocessed data to the network device. By dynamically configuring the configuration information of the terminal device by the network device, the change of the communication environment or resources can be better coped with, and the performance of the communication network can be enhanced.

[0124] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is another flow diagram of a data acquisition method provided by the embodiments of the present application. The data acquisition method includes steps 401-403. Wherein:

[0125] 401. When the network device detects that the air interface resource is congested, the first configuration information is acquired for the first model.

[0126] The specific implementation of step 401 is the same as that of step 201, which will not be repeated here.

[0127] It should be noted that in a possible implementation, the network device can actively acquire the first configuration information for the first model and send it to the terminal device.

[0128] For example, the network device can acquire the first configuration information for the first model when it detects that the air interface resource is limited, such as air interface resource congestion. The air interface resource congestion can be detected by the radio resource management (RRM) module of the network device. For example, when the network device detects that the number of currently available air interface resources is less than a preset air interface resource threshold, it can acquire the first configuration information of the first model according to the number of currently available air interface resources. For example, the network device can improve the degree of preprocessing of the terminal device through the first configuration information, adjust the data preprocessing mode of the terminal device, so that the data compression rate is increased, the amount of data to be reported by the terminal device is reduced, and the air interface pressure is reduced.

[0129] Further, when the network device detects that the problem of air interface resource congestion is alleviated or recovered, it can again acquire the first configuration information for the first model and send the acquired first configuration information to the terminal device.

[0130] 402. The terminal device receives the first configuration information from the network device.

[0131] 403. The terminal device configures according to the first configuration information.

[0132] The specific implementation of steps 402-403 is the same as that of steps 202-203 described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0133] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can receive the first configuration information from the network device, update the configuration information of the terminal device itself according to the first configuration information, and then use the data collection, preprocessing and / or reporting mode in the updated configuration information to report the collected and preprocessed data to the network device. By dynamically configuring the configuration information of the terminal device by the network device, the change of the communication environment or resources can be better coped with, which is conducive to enhancing the performance of the communication network.

[0134] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 are flow diagrams of an activation mode provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0135] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 5 , after the terminal device receives the first configuration information, it is directly activated. The terminal device configures according to the first configuration information for the first model, and collects, preprocesses and sends the data to the network device according to the updated configuration information of the first model. Among them, the direct activation mode can be applied to the scenarios where the terminal device is in connected state and non-connected state.

[0136] In a possible implementation, as shown in Figure 6 , after the terminal device receives the first configuration information, the terminal device can store the first configuration information locally when the terminal device is in connected state and the first configuration information is not immediately applicable, and wait for the network device to send an activation message.

[0137] The network device can issue an activation message within the configuration effective time range of the first configuration information, so that the terminal device configures according to the first configuration information after receiving the activation message. And according to the updated data collection mode, data preprocessing mode and / or data reporting mode of the first model, the data is reported to the network device. Among them, the activation message can be a medium access control-control element (MAC CE) message, or the activation message can be part of the MAC CE message and be issued to the terminal device.

[0138] Compared with the direct activation mode, the activation mode using the activation message is more flexible, and when the first configuration information has been stored in the terminal, the activation mode using the activation message has faster execution and response speed.

[0139] In a possible implementation, the network device can further send a deactivation message to the terminal device, which can also be carried in the MAC CE message, for deactivating the first configuration information within the configuration taking effect time range of the first configuration information.

[0140] In a possible implementation, as shown in steps 602 and 603 can be executed simultaneously or sequentially, and the present application does not limit this. That is, the network device can simultaneously issue the MAC CE message when sending the first configuration information to the terminal, or can first send the first configuration information to the terminal device and then send the MAC CE message for the first model to the terminal device. Figure 6

[0141] In a possible implementation, the above-mentioned direct activation mode can be combined with the mode of activating by issuing an activation message. For example, when the terminal device is in the connected state, it can receive the RRC message sent by the network device to directly activate the terminal to be configured according to the first configuration information. It can also receive the MAC CE message sent by the network device for the third configuration information used by the network device to activate the terminal device to be configured according to the stored third configuration information. The third configuration information is the configuration information of the third model used by the network device, and the third configuration information can include the data collection mode, data preprocessing mode and / or data reporting mode for the third model. The specific activation mode can be determined based on the actual application scenario requirements, and the present application does not limit this.

[0142] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can receive the first configuration information from the network device, update the configuration information of the terminal device itself according to the first configuration information, and then use the data collection, preprocessing and / or reporting mode in the updated configuration information to report the collected and preprocessed data to the network device. By dynamically configuring the configuration information of the terminal device by the network device, the change of the communication environment or resources can be better coped with, which is conducive to enhancing the performance of the communication network.

The device 90 may also include a communication interface 910 for implementing the transmit and receive operations of the terminal device in the method provided in this application embodiment. In this application embodiment, the communication interface may be a transceiver, circuit, bus, module, or other type of communication interface for communicating with other devices via a transmission medium.
