[0190] In some embodiments, the access network device can be composed of a centralized unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU), where the CU can also be called a control unit. The CU-DU structure can be used to split the protocol layer of the access network device, with the functions of some protocol layers centrally controlled by the CU, and the functions of the remaining part or all of the protocol layers distributed in the DU, which is centrally controlled by the CU, but is not limited to this.

[0191] It can be understood that the communication system described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0192] The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to the communication system 100 shown in FIG1 , or a portion thereof, but are not limited thereto. The entities shown in FIG1 are illustrative only. The communication system may include all or part of the entities shown in FIG1 , or may include other entities outside of FIG1 . The number and form of the entities are arbitrary, and the entities may be physical or virtual. The connection relationships between the entities are illustrative only. The entities may be connected or disconnected, and the connection may be in any manner, including direct or indirect, wired or wireless.

[0193] The embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G new radio (NR), future radio access (FRA), new radio access technology (RAT), new radio (NR), new radio access (NX), future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, Ultra-WideBand (UWB), Bluetooth (registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems based on and extending these methods.

[0194] It should be noted that the widespread application of fifth-generation (5G) technology has brought about tremendous changes in all aspects of people's lives. According to the vision of the ITU (International Telecommunication Union), 5G will penetrate into all areas of future society and build a comprehensive information ecosystem centered on users.

As a representative of new infrastructure, 5G will undoubtedly reshape the future information society.

[0195] Optionally, in some embodiments, when an AI model or AI function is deployed on the terminal side, when the network needs to participate in the management of this AI model or AI function, the terminal needs to report to the network which AI models or AI functions are deployed on the terminal side. Furthermore, the terminal can also determine which of these supported AI models or AI functions are currently available AI models and AI functions based on the local operation of the terminal, such as storage, power, and the current environmental scenario. At this time, the network side will manage the reported available functions or available models, such as notifying the terminal to activate a certain AI function or AI model, or performing performance monitoring on this AI function or AI model in advance.

[0196] Optionally, the AI ​​model or AI function deployed on the terminal side can be updated or removed. However, when the AI ​​function or AI model on the terminal side is updated, the old model will be removed, or when an AI model is completely removed, how should the terminal side handle it to prevent the network from activating the no longer existing model or AI function?

[0197] Based on this, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information processing method and device. When the AI ​​processing unit deployed on the terminal side is updated, the old processing unit will be removed, or when a certain AI processing unit is completely removed, the terminal can update the AI ​​processing unit of the terminal on the network side in a corresponding manner, thereby avoiding the network activating the AI ​​processing unit that no longer exists on the terminal side.

[0198] FIG2A is an interactive diagram illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2A , the information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100 , and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0199] In step S2101, terminal 101 determines that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed.

[0200] In some embodiments, the first AI processing unit may be an AI model or an AI function. An AI function is an abstraction of one or more AI model functions. An AI function may include one or more AI models. That is, an AI model may refer to a program that can be run on terminal 101, and an AI function is an abstraction of the functions implemented by the AI ​​model. For example, an AI function may correspond to one or more parameters related to the operation of the AI ​​model, and an AI function may correspond to multiple AI models. In some embodiments, the AI ​​module or AI function may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: AI-based CSI enhancement; AI-based beam management; AI-based positioning.

[0201] In some embodiments, terminal 101 may determine, based on terminal implementation, that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed. That is, terminal 101 may determine, based on terminal implementation, that the terminal plans to remove the first AI processing unit. For example, if terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit will be updated, it may determine that the first AI processing unit is planned to be removed. For example, if terminal 101 receives update information about the first AI processing unit, it may be considered that the old model will be removed after the first AI processing unit is updated. Terminal 101 may determine that the first AI processing unit (i.e., the old model of the first AI processing unit) is planned to be removed. For another example, if terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit is planned to be completely removed, it may determine that the first AI processing unit is planned to be removed. For example, if terminal 101 receives deletion information about the first AI processing unit, it may be considered that the first AI processing unit is completely removed. Terminal 101 may determine that the first AI processing unit is planned to be removed. Alternatively, other methods may be used to determine that the first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed. This disclosure is not limited to this and will not be described in detail. In some embodiments, the terms "remove", "delete", "uninstall", etc. in this document can be used interchangeably.

[0202] Step S2102 , the terminal 101 sends first information to the first network device 102 .

[0203] In some embodiments, the terminal 101 is in a connected state. In some embodiments, the terms "first information", "first signaling" and the like can be used interchangeably.

[0204] In some embodiments, first network device 102 may be configured to store a first set, that is, the first set may be stored in first network device 102. In some embodiments, the first set includes information about the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to terminal 101. That is, the first set records information about the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to terminal 101. Exemplarily, the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to terminal 101 may refer to an AI processing unit that is usable by terminal 101 in the current environment and is expected to achieve the required effect, namely, the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to terminal 101.

[0205] In some embodiments, the first set may be the first set of terminal 101, that is, the first set in the first network device 102 is stored according to the terminal granularity. Exemplarily, the first network device 102 stores multiple first sets, and one first set corresponds to one terminal. For example, the first network device 102 stores 2 first sets, the first set 1 is the first set of terminal a, and the first set 2 is the first set of terminal b.

[0206] In some embodiments, the first information may be sent by the terminal 101 to the first network device 102. For example, the terminal 101 sends the first information to the first network device 102, and correspondingly, the first network device 102 receives the first information sent by the terminal 101.

[0207] In some embodiments, the first information can be used by first network device 102 to update a first set. Exemplarily, upon receiving the first information sent by terminal 101, first network device 102 can update the first set stored in first network device 102. This first set can be the first set of terminal 101, which records information about the AI ​​processing unit currently used by terminal 101. In some embodiments, the updated first set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0208] In some embodiments, the first information may be instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit, that is, the first information may be used to instruct first network device 102 to remove the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the first set on first network device 102 includes AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, and AI processing unit 3, which are currently applicable to terminal 101, and terminal 101 determines that AI processing unit 2 deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed, it sends first information to first network device 102, where the first information is used to remove AI processing unit 2. First network device 102 receives the first information and removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the first set, so that the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to terminal 101 in the first set include AI processing unit 1 and AI processing unit 3.

[0209] In some embodiments, the first information can be used to re-instruct the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to another AI processing unit in the first set other than the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the first set on first network device 102 includes AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, and AI processing unit 3, which are currently applicable to terminal 101, terminal 101 determines that AI processing unit 2 deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed, and sends first information to first network device 102, which is used to re-instruct the use of AI processing unit 1 and AI processing unit 3. First network device 102 receives the first information and removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the first set, so that the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to terminal 101 in the first set are AI processing unit 1 and AI processing unit 3.

[0210] Step S2103: The first network device 102 updates the first set.

[0211] In some embodiments, first network device 102 receives first information sent by terminal 101 and may update the first set based on the first information. For example, if the first information is instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit, then upon receiving the first information sent by terminal 101, first network device 102 may remove the information of the first AI processing unit from the first set to update the first set, so that the updated first set does not include the information of the first AI processing unit.

[0212] In step S2104, the first network device 102 sends second information to the second network device 103. In some embodiments, the terms "second information" and "second signaling" can be used interchangeably.

[0213] In some embodiments, the second network device 103 can be used to store the second set, that is, the second set can be stored in the second network device 103. In some embodiments, the second set includes information about the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal 101, that is, the second set records information about the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal 101. Exemplarily, the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal 101 may refer to: all AI processing units deployed in the terminal 101, wherein these AI processing units have corresponding usage conditions, and not all AI processing units can be used in the current usage environment. In some embodiments, the first set is a subset of the second set.

[0214] In some embodiments, the second set may be the second set of terminal 101, that is, the second set in the second network device 102 is stored according to the terminal granularity. Exemplarily, the second network device 102 stores multiple second sets, and one second set corresponds to one terminal. For example, the second network device 102 stores 2 second sets, the second set 1 is the second set of terminal a, and the second set 2 is the second set of terminal b.

[0215] In some embodiments, the first information sent by terminal 101 to first network device 102 is also used by first network device 102 to send second information to second network device 103, and the second information is used by second network device 103 to update the second set. Exemplarily, the first information is instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit. Then, after first network device 102 receives the first information sent by terminal 101 and updates the first set, first network device 102 may also send second information to second network device 103, and the second information is used by second network device 103 to update the second set. Exemplarily, first network device 102 receives the first information sent by terminal 101 and sends the second information to second network device 103. Accordingly, second network device 103 receives the second information sent by first network device 102 and updates the second set.

[0216] In some embodiments, the second information sent by first network device 102 to second network device 103 may be information indicating the removal of the first AI processing unit. That is, the second information may be used to instruct second network device 103 to remove the first AI processing unit. Upon receiving the second information, second network device 103 may remove the first AI processing unit from the second set to update the second set. The updated second set does not include the first AI processing unit.

[0217] Step S2105: The second network device 103 updates the second set.

[0218] In some embodiments, second network device 103 receives the second information sent by first network device 102 and may update the second set based on the second information. For example, the second information may be instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit. Upon receiving the second information sent by first network device 102, second network device 103 may remove the first AI processing unit from the second set to update the second set, so that the updated first set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0219] For example, assuming that the first set on the first network device 102 includes the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal 101, namely, AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, and AI processing unit 3, and the second set on the second network device 103 includes the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal 101, namely, AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4. The terminal 101 determines that the AI ​​processing unit 2 deployed on the terminal 101 is planned to be removed, and sends first information to the first network device 102. The first information is used to remove the AI ​​processing unit 2. The first network device 102 receives the first information and removes the information of the AI ​​processing unit 2 from the first set. The updated first set does not include the information of the AI ​​processing unit 2. That is, the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal 101 included in the first set are AI processing unit 1 and AI processing unit 3. First network device 102 sends second information to second network device 103, where the second information is used to remove AI processing unit 2. Upon receiving the second information, second network device 103 removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set. The updated second set does not include the information about AI processing unit 2. That is, the second set includes the AI ​​processing units supported by terminal 101, namely, AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4.

[0220] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the first information may be RRC signaling, or may be information in other formats, which is not limited in this disclosure and will not be described in detail. In some embodiments, the second information may be transmitted using a communication interface (such as an NG interface) between the first network device 102 (such as a base station) and the second network device 103 (such as an AMF), or the second information may be information in other formats, which is not limited in this disclosure and will not be described in detail.

[0221] In step S2106, the terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0222] Optionally, in some embodiments, after terminal 101 determines that the step of sending the first information to first network device 102 is complete, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. Exemplarily, in response to the first AI processing unit of terminal 101 being removed, terminal 101 sends the first information to first network device 102. When terminal 101 determines that the first information has been successfully sent, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0223] Optionally, in some embodiments, after terminal 101 determines that first network device 102 has completed the update of the first set and second network device 103 has completed the update of the second set, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. Exemplarily, after second network device 103 removes the first AI processing unit from the second set to complete the update of the second set, second network device 103 sends a completion message (e.g., information indicating a successful update) to first network device 102. First network device 102 removes the first AI processing unit from the first set to complete the update of the first set, and upon receiving the completion message sent by second network device 103, first network device 102 sends a completion message to terminal 101. Upon receiving the completion message sent by first network device 102, terminal 101 may deem that the update of the first set on first network device 102 and the update of the second set on second network device 103 have been completed. Terminal 101 may then remove the first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101.

[0224] It is worth noting that in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when terminal 101 is in a connected state, step 1: in response to the first AI processing unit of terminal 101 being removed, terminal 101 sends first information to the first network device. The first information is used to update the information in the first set and / or the second set on the network side. The first set records the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal. The second set is the AI ​​processing units deployed on the terminal side, and the updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit. Step 2: After step 1 is completed, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. In other words, when the first AI processing unit of terminal 101 is about to be removed, or before terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit, terminal 101 can notify the first network device to update the first set, and the first network device can notify the second network device to update the second set.

[0231] The method involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include at least one of steps S2101 to S2106. For example, steps S2101, S2102, S2103, S2104, and S2105 may be implemented as independent embodiments, and steps S2101, S2102, S2103, S2104, S2105, and S2106 may be implemented as independent embodiments, but are not limited thereto.

[0232] In some embodiments, step S2103 and step S2104 may be executed in an interchanged order or simultaneously.

[0233] In some embodiments, step S2106 may be performed after step S2102 is completed. That is, after the terminal 101 determines that the step of sending the first information to the first network device 102 is completed, the terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0234] In some embodiments, step S2106 may be performed after step S2105 is completed. That is, after terminal 101 determines that first network device 102 has completed updating of the first set and second network device 103 has completed updating of the second set, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0235] In some embodiments, step S2106 is optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or replaced in different embodiments.

[0236] In some embodiments, reference may be made to other optional implementations described before or after the description corresponding to FIG. 2A .

[0237] Figure 2B is an interactive diagram illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2B, the information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100, and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0238] In step S2201, terminal 101 determines that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed.

[0239] The optional implementation of step S2201 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2101 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0240] Step S2202 : The terminal 101 sends first information to the first network device 102 .

[0241] The optional implementation of step S2202 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2102 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0242] Step S2203: The first network device 102 updates the first set.

[0243] The optional implementation of step S2203 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2103 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0244] In step S2204, the terminal 101 sends third information to the second network device 103. In some embodiments, the terms "third information" and "third signaling" can be used interchangeably.

[0245] In some embodiments, the second network device 103 may be used to store the second set, that is, the second set may be stored in the second network device 103. Optional implementations may refer to the relevant description in the above step S2104, which will not be repeated here.

[0246] In some embodiments, the third information may be sent by the terminal 101 to the second network device 103. For example, the terminal 101 sends the third information to the second network device 103, and correspondingly, the second network device 103 receives the third information sent by the terminal 101.

[0247] In some embodiments, the third information can be used by second network device 103 to update the second set. Exemplarily, upon receiving the third information sent by terminal 101, second network device 103 can update the second set stored in second network device 103. This second set can be the second set of terminal 101, recording information about AI processing units supported by terminal 101. In some embodiments, the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0248] In some embodiments, the third information may be instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit, that is, the third information may be used to instruct second network device 103 to remove the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the second set on second network device 103 includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4, terminal 101 determines that AI processing unit 2 deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed, and sends third information to second network device 103, where the third information is used to remove AI processing unit 2. After receiving the third information, second network device 103 removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set, so that the second set includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101 as AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4.

[0249] In some embodiments, the third information may be used to re-instruct the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to another AI processing unit in the second set excluding the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the second set on second network device 103 includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4, and terminal 101 determines that AI processing unit 2 deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed, it sends third information to second network device 103, where the third information is used to re-instruct the use of AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4. Upon receiving the third information, second network device 103 removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set, so that the second set includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4.

[0250] Step S2205: The second network device 103 updates the second set.

[0251] In some embodiments, second network device 103 receives third information sent by terminal 101 and may update the second set based on the third information. Exemplarily, the third information is instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit. Upon receiving the third information sent by terminal 101, second network device 103 may remove the information of the first AI processing unit from the second set to update the second set, so that the updated second set does not include the information of the first AI processing unit.

[0252] Exemplarily, the third information may be used to re-indicate the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to an AI processing unit other than the first AI processing unit in the second set. Upon receiving the third information sent by the terminal 101, the second network device 103 may update the second set so that the updated second set includes the AI ​​processing units other than the first AI processing unit. That is, the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0253] In step S2206, the terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0254] Optionally, in some embodiments, after terminal 101 determines that the above-mentioned step of "sending the first information to first network device 102" and the above-mentioned step of "sending the third information to second network device 103" are completed, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. Exemplarily, in response to the first AI processing unit of terminal 101 being removed, terminal 101 sends the first information to first network device 102 and the third information to second network device 103. When terminal 101 determines that the first information and the third information have been successfully sent, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0255] Optionally, in some embodiments, after the terminal 101 determines that the first network device 102 has completed the update of the first set and the second network device 103 has completed the update of the second set, the terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. Exemplarily, after the second network device 103 removes the first AI processing unit from the second set to complete the update of the second set, the second network device 103 sends a first completion message (such as information indicating a successful update) to the terminal 101. The first network device 102 removes the first AI processing unit from the first set to complete the update of the first set, and the first network device 102 sends a second completion message to the terminal 101. When the terminal 101 receives the second completion message sent by the first network device 102 and the first completion message sent by the second network device 103, it can be considered that the first set on the first network device 102 has completed the update and the second set on the second network device 103 has completed the update, and the terminal 101 can remove the first AI processing unit deployed on the terminal 101.

[0256] It is worth noting that when the terminal 101 in the embodiment of the present disclosure is in a connected state, step 1: in response to the first AI processing unit of the terminal 101 being removed, the terminal 101 sends a first message to the first network device, and the first information is used to update the information in the first set and or the second set on the network side. The first set records the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to the terminal. The second set is the AI ​​processing unit deployed on the terminal side, and the updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit. Step 2: After step 1 is executed, the terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. That is, when the first AI processing unit of the terminal 101 is about to be removed, or before the terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit, the terminal 101 can notify the first network device to update the first set, and also notify the second network device to update the second set. The difference between the embodiment of Figure 2B and the embodiment of Figure 2A is that: in the embodiment of Figure 2A, the terminal 101 notifies the first network device to update the first set, and the first network device notifies the second network device to update the second set; in the embodiment of Figure 2B, the terminal 101 notifies the first network device to update the first set, and the terminal 101 notifies the second network device to update the second set.

[0257] The method involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include at least one of steps S2201 to S2206. For example, steps S2201, S2202, S2203, S2204, and S2205 may be implemented as independent embodiments, and steps S2201, S2202, S2203, S2204, S2205, and S2206 may be implemented as independent embodiments, but are not limited thereto.

[0258] In some embodiments, step S2202 and step S2204 may be executed in an exchanged order or simultaneously, and step S2203 and step S2205 may be executed in an exchanged order or simultaneously.

[0259] In some embodiments, step S2206 may be performed after step S2202 and step S2204 are completed. That is, after terminal 101 determines that the above steps of "sending the first information to the first network device 102" and "sending the third information to the second network device 103" are completed, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0260] In some embodiments, step S2206 may be performed after step S2203 and step S2205 are completed. That is, after terminal 101 determines that first network device 102 has completed updating of the first set and second network device 103 has completed updating of the second set, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit.

[0261] In some embodiments, step S2206 is optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or replaced in different embodiments.

[0262] In some embodiments, reference may be made to other optional implementations described before or after the description corresponding to FIG. 2B .

[0263] Figure 2C is an interactive diagram illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2C, the information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100, and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0264] In step S2301, terminal 101 determines that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed.

[0265] The optional implementation of step S2301 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2101 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0266] In step S2302 , the terminal 101 sends first information to the first network device 102 .

[0267] The optional implementation of step S2302 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2102 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0268] Step S2303: The first network device 102 updates the first set.

[0269] The optional implementation of step S2303 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2103 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0270] In step S2304, the terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit is removed.

[0271] In some embodiments, after terminal 101 determines that the step of sending the first information to first network device 102 is complete, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. In other words, terminal 101 can determine that the first AI processing unit is removed. In some embodiments, after terminal 101 determines that first network device 102 has completed updating the first set, terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit. In other words, terminal 101 can determine that the first AI processing unit is removed.

[0272] Step S2305: The terminal 101 sends fourth information to the second network device 103. In some embodiments, the terms "fourth information", "fourth signaling" and the like can be used interchangeably.

[0273] In some embodiments, the second network device 103 may be used to store the second set, that is, the second set may be stored in the second network device 103. Optional implementations may refer to the relevant description in the above step S2104, which will not be repeated here.

[0274] In some embodiments, the fourth information may be sent by the terminal 101 to the second network device 103. For example, the terminal 101 sends the fourth information to the second network device 103, and correspondingly, the second network device 103 receives the fourth information sent by the terminal 101.

[0275] In some embodiments, the fourth information is used by second network device 103 to update the second set. Exemplarily, upon receiving the fourth information sent by terminal 101, second network device 103 may update the second set stored in second network device 103. This second set may be the second set of terminal 101, which records information about AI processing units supported by terminal 101. In some embodiments, the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0276] In some embodiments, the fourth information may be instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit, that is, the fourth information may be used to instruct second network device 103 to remove the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the second set on second network device 103 includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4, terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit has been removed and sends fourth information to second network device 103, where the fourth information is used to remove AI processing unit 2. After receiving the fourth information, second network device 103 removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set, so that the second set includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4.

[0277] In some embodiments, the fourth information may be used to re-instruct the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to another AI processing unit in the second set excluding the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the second set on second network device 103 includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4, and terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit has been removed, it sends fourth information to second network device 103, where the fourth information is used to re-instruct the use of AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4. Upon receiving the fourth information, second network device 103 removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set, so that the second set includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4.

[0278] Step S2306: The second network device 103 updates the second set.

[0279] In some embodiments, second network device 103 receives fourth information sent by terminal 101 and may update the second set based on the fourth information. Exemplarily, the fourth information is instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit. Upon receiving the fourth information sent by terminal 101, second network device 103 may remove the information of the first AI processing unit from the second set to update the second set, so that the updated second set does not include the information of the first AI processing unit.

[0280] Exemplarily, the fourth information can be used to re-indicate the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to another AI processing unit in the second set other than the first AI processing unit. When the second network device 103 receives the fourth information sent by the terminal 101, the second network device 103 can update the second set so that the updated second set includes the other AI processing units other than the first AI processing unit. That is, the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0281] It is worth noting that when terminal 101 in the embodiment of the present disclosure is in a connected state, step 1: in response to the terminal's first processing unit being removed, the terminal sends first information to the first network device, the first information being used to update the information in the first set on the first network device, and the updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit. Step 2: The terminal removes the first AI processing unit. Step 3: when the first AI processing unit is removed, the terminal sends fourth information to the second network device, the fourth information being used to update the second set recorded by the second network device, and the updated second set does not include the first AI processing unit. The difference between the embodiment of Figure 2C and the embodiments of Figures 2A and 2B is that: in the embodiment of Figure 2C, when the first AI processing unit of terminal 101 is about to be removed, or before terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit, the terminal first notifies the first network device to update the first set. After the first AI processing unit is removed by the terminal, the terminal notifies the second network device to update the second set. In the embodiments of Figures 2A and 2B, when the first AI processing unit of terminal 101 is about to be removed, or before terminal 101 removes the first AI processing unit, terminal 101 notifies the network side to update the first set and the second set.

[0282] The method involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure may include at least one of steps S2301 to S2306, for example, step S2301 + step S2302 + step S2303 + step S2304 + step S2305 + step S2306, but is not limited thereto.

[0283] In some embodiments, reference may be made to other optional implementations described before or after the description corresponding to FIG. 2C .

[0284] Figure 2D is an interactive diagram illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2D, the information processing method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to the communication system 100, and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0285] In step S2401, terminal 101 determines that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed.

[0286] The optional implementation of step S2401 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2101 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0287] Step S2402 , the terminal 101 sends first information to the first network device 102 .

[0288] The optional implementation of step S2402 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2102 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0289] Step S2403: The first network device 102 updates the first set.

[0290] The optional implementation of step S2403 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2103 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0291] In step S2404 , the terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit is removed.

[0292] The optional implementation of step S2404 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2304 in Figure 2C and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2C, which will not be repeated here.

[0293] Step S2405 : The terminal 101 sends fifth information to the first network device 102 .

[0294] In some embodiments, the fifth information may be sent by terminal 101 to first network device 102. For example, when terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit has been removed, terminal 101 sends the fifth information to first network device 102. Accordingly, first network device 102 receives the fifth information sent by terminal 101. In some embodiments, the terms "fifth information" and "fifth signaling" may be used interchangeably.

[0295] In some embodiments, the fifth information is used by first network device 102 to update the second set on second network device 103. In some embodiments, second network device 103 may be configured to store the second set, that is, the second set may be stored in second network device 103. Optional implementations may be found in the description of step S2104 above and will not be repeated here.

[0296] For example, when a connection exists between first network device 102 and second network device 103, terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit has been removed and terminal 101 wishes to update the second set recorded by second network device 103, terminal 101 may send fifth information to first network device 102. When first network device 102 receives the fifth information sent by terminal 101, it sends sixth information to second network device 103. This sixth information may be used to instruct second network device 103 to update the second set. In some embodiments, the terms "sixth information" and "sixth signaling" may be used interchangeably.

[0297] In some embodiments, the sixth information may be instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit, that is, the sixth information may be used to instruct second network device 103 to remove the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the second set on second network device 103 includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4, terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit has been removed and sends fifth information to first network device 102. After receiving the fifth information, first network device 102 sends sixth information to second network device 103, where the sixth information is used to remove AI processing unit 2. After receiving the sixth information, second network device 103 removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set, so that the second set includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4.

[0298] In some embodiments, the sixth information may be used to re-instruct the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to another AI processing unit in the second set excluding the first AI processing unit. For example, assuming that the second set on second network device 103 includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, AI processing unit 2, AI processing unit 3, and AI processing unit 4, terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit has been removed and sends fifth information to first network device 102. After receiving the fifth information, first network device 102 sends sixth information to second network device 103, where the sixth information is used to re-instruct the use of AI processing units 1, 3, and 4. Second network device 103 receives the sixth information and removes the information about AI processing unit 2 from the second set, so that the second set includes AI processing units supported by terminal 101, namely AI processing unit 1, 3, and 4.

[0299] Step S2406: The second network device 103 updates the second set.

[0300] In some embodiments, second network device 103 receives the sixth information sent by first network device 102 and may update the second set based on the sixth information. Exemplarily, the sixth information is instruction information for removing the first AI processing unit. Upon receiving the sixth information sent by terminal 101, second network device 103 may remove the information of the first AI processing unit from the second set to update the second set, so that the updated second set does not include the information of the first AI processing unit.

[0301] Exemplarily, the sixth information may be used to re-indicate the use of a second AI processing unit, where the second AI processing unit refers to an AI processing unit other than the first AI processing unit in the second set. Upon receiving the sixth information sent by the terminal 101, the second network device 103 may update the second set so that the updated second set includes the AI ​​processing units other than the first AI processing unit. That is, the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0302] It is worth noting that when the terminal 101 in the embodiment of the present disclosure is in a connected state, step 1: in response to the first processing unit of the terminal being removed, the terminal sends a first message to the first network device, and the first message is used to update the information in the first set on the first network device. The updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit. Step 2: The terminal removes the first AI processing unit. Step 3: When the first AI processing unit is removed, the terminal sends a fifth message to the first network device, and after receiving the fifth message, the first network device sends a sixth message to the second network device to notify the second network device to update the second set. The difference between the embodiment of Figure 2D and the embodiment of Figure 2C is that: in the embodiment of Figure 2D, the terminal sends the fifth message to the first network device, and after receiving the fifth message, the first network device notifies the second network device to update the second set; while in the embodiment of Figure 2C, the terminal directly notifies the second network device to update the second set.

[0305] Figure 2E is an interactive diagram illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2E, the information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100, and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0306] In step S2501, terminal 101 determines that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed.

[0307] The optional implementation of step S2501 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2101 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0308] Step S2502: Terminal 101 sends first information to the network device.

[0309] In some embodiments, the first information is used to update the first set and / or the second set on the network device. In some embodiments, the first set may be stored on the first network device 102, and the second set may be stored on the second network device 103. In some embodiments, the first network device 102 and the second network device 103 may be the same network device, or may be different network devices.

[0310] In some embodiments, the first set includes information about the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to the terminal; and the second set includes information about the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal.

[0311] In some embodiments, the aforementioned network device may be the first network device 102 .

[0312] The optional implementation of step S2502 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2102 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0313] Step S2503: The network device updates the first set.

[0314] The optional implementation of step S2503 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2103 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0315] In step S2504 , the terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit is removed.

[0316] The optional implementation of step S2504 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2304 in Figure 2C and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2C, which will not be repeated here.

[0317] Step S2505: Terminal 101 performs a first operation.

[0318] In some embodiments, when terminal 101 determines that the first AI processing unit is removed, terminal 101 may perform the first operation. In some embodiments, the first operation may be used to release the connection between terminal 101 and the network device, and the first operation is used by the network device to delete the first set and / or the second set.

[0319] Exemplarily, the first operation may be a detach operation. For example, terminal 101 initiates a detach request to request to disconnect from the network. After receiving the detach request, the network verifies the identity and legitimacy of terminal 101. If the verification is successful, the network revokes the TMSI (Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity) of terminal 101 and deletes terminal 101 from the network. The network confirms that the detach request has been successfully received through a detach completion message and sends the message (i.e., a detach completion message) to terminal 101. After receiving the detach completion message, terminal 101 closes the connection with the network.

[0320] In some embodiments, the network device includes a first network device 102 and a second network device 103. Both the first network device 102 and the second network device 103 are connected to the terminal 101. The terminal 101 can release the connection between the terminal 101 and the first network device 102 through the first operation, so that the first network device 102 can delete the first set recorded by the first network device 102. The terminal 101 releases the connection between the terminal 101 and the second network device 103 through the first operation, so that the second network device 103 can delete the second set recorded by the second network device 103.

[0321] In some embodiments, the network device includes a first network device 102 and a second network device 103. There is a connection between the terminal 101 and the first network device 102, and there is a connection between the first network device 102 and the second network device 103. The terminal 101 can release the connection between the terminal 101 and the first network device 102 through the first operation, so that the first network device 102 can delete the first set recorded by the first network device 102. The first network device 102 determines that the connection with the terminal 101 is released, then the first network device 102 can release the connection with the second network device 103, so that the second network device 103 can delete the second set recorded by the second network device 103.

[0322] Step S2506: The network device determines that the terminal 101 initiates the first operation and deletes the first set and / or the second set.

[0323] In some embodiments, if the network device determines that terminal 101 has performed the first operation, the network device deletes the first set and / or the second set. For example, if terminal 101 initiates a disconnection request and the network device receives the request, it can be determined that terminal 101 initiated the first operation. For example, the network device monitors the terminal's connection and, if no feedback is received from the terminal within a preset time, it can be determined that the terminal is disconnected, and the network device can determine that terminal 101 initiated the first operation.

[0324] In some embodiments, the network device includes a first network device 102 and a second network device 103. Both the first network device 102 and the second network device 103 are connected to the terminal 101. The terminal 101 can release the connection between the terminal 101 and the first network device 102 through the first operation. The first network device 102 determines that the terminal 101 initiated the first operation, and the first network device 102 deletes the first set recorded by the first network device 102. The second network device 103 determines that the terminal 101 initiated the first operation, and the second network device 103 deletes the second set recorded by the second network device 103.

[0325] In some embodiments, the network device includes a first network device 102 and a second network device 103. There is a connection between the terminal 101 and the first network device 102, and there is a connection between the first network device 102 and the second network device 103. The terminal 101 can release the connection between the terminal 101 and the first network device 102 through the first operation. The first network device 102 determines that the terminal 101 initiated the first operation, the first network device 102 deletes the first set recorded by the first network device 102, the first network device 102 releases the connection between it and the second network device 103, the second network device 103 determines that the connection between it and the first network device 102 is disconnected, and then the second network device 103 deletes the second set recorded by the second network device 103.

[0326] In step S2507, terminal 101 re-accesses the network device and sends the updated first set and / or second set to the network device; the updated first set does not include information about the first AI processing unit, and the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0327] In some embodiments, after terminal 101 completes the first operation, terminal 101 re-accesses the network device, and terminal 101 may send an updated first set and / or second set to the network device, where the updated first set does not include information about the first AI processing unit, and the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0328] Exemplarily, the network devices include a first network device 102 and a second network device 103. The terminal 101 can re-establish the connection with the first network device 102 and re-establish the connection with the second network device 103. The terminal 101 sends the updated first set to the first network device 102 and sends the updated second set to the second network device 103.

[0329] Exemplarily, the network devices include a first network device 102 and a second network device 103. Terminal 101 can re-establish a connection with first network device 102, and terminal 101 sends an updated first set and an updated second set to first network device 102. First network device 102 re-establishes a connection with second network device 103, and first network device 102 receives the updated first set and the updated second set sent by terminal 101, stores the updated first set, and sends the updated second set to second network device 103, so that second network device 103 can store the updated second set.

[0330] That is to say, the embodiment of the present disclosure allows the network side to clear the first set and / or second set of the terminal by disconnecting the terminal from the network. In this way, after the terminal reconnects to the network, the terminal reports the updated first set and the updated second set to the network. Neither the updated first set nor the updated second set includes the information of the first AI processing unit, thereby realizing the update of the first set and the second set recorded on the network side.

[0335] In step S2602 , terminal 101 determines that a first AI processing unit deployed on terminal 101 is planned to be removed.

[0336] The optional implementation of step S2602 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2101 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.

[0337] Step S2603: Terminal 101 sends the first set and / or the second set to the network device.

[0338] In some embodiments, the first set and / or the second set sent by the terminal 101 to the network device does not include information of the first AI processing unit.

[0343] In some embodiments, reference may be made to other optional implementations described before or after the description corresponding to FIG. 2F .

As shown in FIG6A , the method involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100 , and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0589] In step S6101, the terminal determines that a first AI processing unit deployed in the terminal is planned to be removed.

[0590] Step S6102: The terminal sends first information to the network device, where the first information is used by the network device to update the first set and / or the second set.

[0591] In some embodiments, the first set includes information about the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to the terminal; and the second set includes information about the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal.

As shown in FIG6B , the method involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to the communication system 100, and the method includes but is not limited to the following steps.

[0595] In step S6201, the terminal determines whether a first AI processing unit deployed in the terminal is planned to be removed or has been removed.

[0596] In step S6202, the terminal releases the connection between the terminal and the network device so that the network device deletes the first set and / or the second set. The first set includes information about the AI ​​processing unit currently applicable to the terminal, and the second set includes information about the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal.

[0597] In step S6203, the terminal reconnects to the network device and sends the updated first set and / or second set to the network device; the updated first set does not include information about the first AI processing unit, and the updated second set does not include information about the first AI processing unit.

[0598] In some embodiments, the above method may include the method described in the above embodiments of the terminal side, the first network device side, the second network device side, etc., which will not be repeated here.

[0599] It should be noted that the AI ​​processing unit deployed on the terminal side can be updated or removed. When the AI ​​processing unit on the terminal side is updated, the processing unit will be removed, or when an AI processing unit is completely removed, how should the terminal side handle it to avoid the network activating the no longer existing AI processing unit? Based on this, the embodiments of the present disclosure propose a method for removing the AI ​​processing unit on the terminal side, which will be described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0600] Example 1

[0601] The terminal is in a connected state, as shown in FIG7A , and the method may include the following steps:

[0602] In step S7101, the terminal plans to remove the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).

[0603] In step S7102, in response to the first AI processing unit (such as model 3) on the terminal side being removed, the terminal sends a first message to the network (such as a first network device), and the first message is used to update the information in the first set on the first network device side. The first set records the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal (such as model 1, model 3, and model 5). The first information can be used to indicate the removal of model 3 or to re-indicate that the models currently applicable to the terminal are model 1 and model 5. The first network device receives the first information and updates the first set. The updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit (such as model 3). For example, the updated first set includes model 1 and model 5.

[0604] Step S7103: After step S7102 is completed, the terminal side removes the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).

[0605] In step S7104, when the first AI processing unit (such as model 3) is removed, the terminal sends a fourth message to the second network device, where the fourth message is used to update the second set recorded on the second network device side. The second set includes the AI ​​processing units supported by the terminal side (such as model 1, model 2, model 3, model 4, and model 5). The fourth message can be used to indicate the removal of model 3 or to re-indicate that the models supported by the terminal are model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5. The updated second set does not include the first AI processing unit (such as model 3). For example, the updated second set includes model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5.

[0606] Example 2

[0607] The terminal is in a connected state, as shown in FIG7B , and the method may include the following steps:

[0608] In step S7201, the terminal plans to remove the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).

[0609] In step S7202, in response to the first AI processing unit (such as model 3) on the terminal side being removed, the terminal sends a first message to the network (such as a first network device). The first message is used to update the information in the first set on the first network device side. The first set records the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal (such as model 1, model 3, and model 5). The first information can be used to indicate the removal of model 3 or to re-indicate that the models currently applicable to the terminal are model 1 and model 5. The first network device receives the first information and updates the first set. The updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit (such as model 3). For example, the updated first set includes model 1 and model 5.

[0610] Step S7203: After step S7202 is completed, the terminal side removes the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).

[0611] In step S7204, when the first AI processing unit (e.g., model 3) is removed, the terminal sends fifth information to the first network device. The fifth information may be used to instruct the removal of the first AI processing unit (e.g., model 3) from the second set, or to re-indicate that the second set includes model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5. Upon receiving the fifth information sent by the terminal, the first network device sends sixth information to the second network device. The sixth information may be used to instruct the second network device to update the second set. For example, the sixth information is used to instruct the removal of the first AI processing unit (e.g., model 3) from the second set, or to re-indicate that the second set includes model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5. The second network device receives the sixth information and updates the second set. The updated second set does not include the first AI processing unit (e.g., model 3). For example, the updated second set includes model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5.

[0612] Example 3

[0613] The terminal is in a connected state, as shown in FIG7C , and the method may include the following steps:

[0614] In step S7301, the terminal plans to remove the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).

[0615] In step S7302, in response to the first AI processing unit (such as model 3) on the terminal side being removed, the terminal sends a first message to the network (such as a first network device), and the first message is used to update the information in the first set on the first network device side. The first set records the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal (such as model 1, model 3, and model 5). The first information can be used to indicate the removal of model 3 or to re-indicate that the models currently applicable to the terminal are model 1 and model 5. The first network device receives the first information and updates the first set. The updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit (such as model 3). For example, the updated first set includes model 1 and model 5.

[0616] Step S7303: After step S7302 is executed, the terminal side removes the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).

[0617] When the first AI processing unit (such as model 3) is removed, the terminal performs a first operation, and the first operation is used to disconnect the terminal from the network. After the terminal initiates the first operation, the network side will clear the first set and / or second set of the terminal. For example, the first operation may be a detach operation. After the terminal side completes the first operation, the terminal re-accesses the network, and the terminal reports the updated first set and / or second set to the network, which does not include the first AI model or AI function. For example, the terminal sends the updated first set (including model 1 and model 5) to the first network device, and sends the updated second set (including model 1, model 2, model 4 and model 5) to the second network device.

[0618] Optionally, in some embodiments, after the terminal side accesses the network or is accessing the network, before the terminal reports the first set and / or second set to the network, in response to the terminal side's plan to remove the first AI processing unit, the first set and / or second set reported by the terminal side does not include the first AI processing unit. Exemplarily, the network side includes a first network device and a second network device, the first network device is used to store the first set, and the second network device is used to store the second set. For example, the first network device can be a base station or LMF, and the second network device can be an AMF.

[0619] Example 4

[0620] When the terminal is in a connected state, as shown in FIG7D , the method may include the following steps:

[0621] When the terminal plans to remove or has removed the first AI processing unit (such as model 3), the terminal initiates a first process, which is used to disconnect the terminal from the network. The network deletes the first set and / or the second set on the terminal side. For example, the network side includes a first network device and a second network device, the first network device is used to store the first set, and the second network device is used to store the second set. The terminal initiates the first process, the connection between the terminal and the first network device is released, the connection between the second network device and the first network device is released, the first network device deletes the stored first set, and the second network device deletes the stored second set.

[0622] The terminal initiates a second process, which is used for the terminal to reconnect to the network. The terminal reports the first set and / or the second set to the network, and the first set and / or the second set do not include the first AI processing unit. For example, the terminal initiates the second process to establish a connection between the terminal and the first network device, and the connection between the second network device and the first network device is reestablished. The terminal sends the updated first set (for example, including Model 1 and Model 5) to the first network device, and the terminal sends the updated second set (for example, including Model 1, Model 2, Model 4, and Model 5) to the second network device.

[0623] Example 5

[0624] When the terminal is in a connected state, as shown in FIG7E , the method may include the following steps:

[0625] Step S7501: In response to the first AI processing unit (such as model 3) on the terminal side being removed, the terminal sends a first message to the first network device. The first message is used to update the information in the first set on the first network device side. The first set records the AI ​​processing units currently applicable to the terminal (such as model 1, model 3, and model 5). The first information can be used to indicate the removal of model 3 or to re-indicate that the models currently applicable to the terminal are model 1 and model 5. The first network device receives the first information and updates the first set. The updated first set does not include the first AI processing unit (such as model 3). For example, the updated first set includes model 1 and model 5.

[0626] In step S7502, the terminal sends a third message to the second network device. The third message is used to update the information in the second set on the second network device side. The second set records the AI ​​processing units deployed (or supported) on the terminal side. The third information can be used to remove model 3 or re-indicate that the models supported by the terminal are model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5. The second network device receives the first message and updates the second set. The updated second set does not include the first AI processing unit (such as model 3). For example, the updated second set includes model 1, model 2, model 4, and model 5.

[0627] Step S7503: After step S7502 is executed, the terminal side removes the first AI processing unit (such as model 3).
