[0139] For ease of understanding, some of the contents involved in the embodiments of this application are described below:

[0140] 1. Artificial Intelligence (AI)

[0141] Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently being widely applied in various fields. Integrating AI into wireless communication networks to significantly improve technical indicators such as throughput, latency, and user capacity is a key task for future wireless communication networks. AI modules can be implemented in a variety of ways, such as neural networks, decision trees, support vector machines, and Bayesian classifiers. This application uses neural networks as an example, but does not limit the specific type of AI module.

[0142] For example, a neural network can be shown in Figure 2a. The neural network is composed of neurons, and each neuron can be shown in Figure 2b. Here, a1, a2, ... aK are inputs, w is the weight (multiplicative coefficient), b is the bias (additive coefficient), and σ(.) is the activation function. Common activation functions include Sigmoid, tanh, and Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU).

[0143] Neural network parameters are optimized using a gradient optimization algorithm. Gradient optimization algorithms are a class of algorithms that minimize or maximize an objective function (also called a loss function), which is often a mathematical combination of model parameters and data. For example, given data X and its corresponding label Y, we construct a neural network model f(.). With this model, we can obtain a predicted output f(x) based on the input x, and calculate the difference between the predicted value and the true value (f(x) - Y). This is the loss function. The goal is to find the appropriate W, b to minimize the value of this loss function. The smaller the loss value, the closer the model is to the true value.

[0144] Currently, most common optimization algorithms are based on the back propagation (BP) algorithm. The basic idea of ​​the BP algorithm is that the learning process consists of two steps: forward propagation of signals and back propagation of errors. During forward propagation, input samples are passed from the input layer, processed layer by layer through each hidden layer, and then transmitted to the output layer. If the actual output of the output layer does not match the expected output, the error begins back propagation. Back propagation involves propagating the output error back through the hidden layers to the input layer layer by layer in some form, distributing the error to all units in each layer. This error signal is then generated for each unit in each layer, which serves as the basis for adjusting the weights of each unit. This process of adjusting the weights of each layer, through forward propagation of signals and back propagation of errors, is repeated over and over again. This process of continuous weight adjustment is the network's learning and training process. This process continues until the error in the network output is reduced to an acceptable level, or until a pre-set number of learning cycles is reached.

[0145] Common optimization algorithms include gradient descent, stochastic gradient descent (SGD), mini-batch gradient descent, momentum method (Momentum), Nesterov (the name of the inventor, specifically stochastic gradient descent with momentum), adaptive gradient descent (Adagrad), Adadelta, root mean square error prop (RMSprop), adaptive momentum estimation (Adam), etc.

[0146] When these optimization algorithms backpropagate errors, they all calculate the derivative / partial derivative of the current neuron based on the error / loss obtained by the loss function, add the influence of the learning rate, the previous gradient / derivative / partial derivative, etc., obtain the gradient, and pass the gradient to the previous layer.

[0147] 2. AI Unit / AI Model

[0148] The AI ​​unit / AI model of the embodiment of the present application may also be referred to as a machine learning (ML) model, ML unit, AI structure, AI function, AI feature, machine learning model, neural network, neural network function, neural network function, etc., or the above-mentioned AI unit / AI model may also refer to a processing unit that can implement specific algorithms, formulas, processing procedures, capabilities, etc. related to AI, or the AI ​​unit / AI model may be a processing method, algorithm, function, module or unit for a specific data set, or the AI ​​unit / AI model may be a processing method, algorithm, function, module or unit running on AI / ML related hardware such as GPU, NPU, TPU, ASIC, etc., which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. Optionally, the specific data set includes at least one of the input and output of the AI ​​unit / AI model.

[0149] Optionally, the identifier of the AI ​​unit / AI model may be an AI model identifier, an AI structure identifier, an AI algorithm identifier, or an identifier of a specific data set associated with the AI ​​unit / AI model, or an identifier of a specific scenario, environment, channel feature, or device related to the AI / ML, or an identifier of a function, feature, capability, or module related to the AI / ML. This embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

[0168] Report Configuration (ReportConfig): includes reporting criteria (periodic / event-triggered); reference signal type (Synchronous Signal Block (SSB) / Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS)), measurement reporting amount (any combination of Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) / Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) / Signal to Interference Plus Noise Ratio (SINR)); whether to report beam measurement results, the maximum number of reportable beams, etc.

[0169] Measurement identifier (measId): used to associate a measurement object with a reporting configuration. A measurement object can be associated with multiple reporting configurations, and a reporting configuration can be associated with multiple measurement objects.

[0170] In NR, the three are linked together in the following ways:

[0171] The reporting configuration can include event-triggered reporting. The events defined in NR can be found in Table 1, which include the following events:

[0172] Table 1

[0173] Taking the A3 event as an example, the meanings of the parameters for the entry and exit conditions are as follows:

[0174] Mn: Neighboring cell measurement result, without considering any offset;

[0175] Ofn: Neighborhood measurement object specific offset;

[0176] Ocn: Neighboring cell-level specific offset;

[0177] Mp: SpCell (primary serving cell) measurement result, without considering any offset;

[0178] Ofp: SpCell measurement object specific offset;

[0179] Ocp: SpCell cell-level specific offset;

[0180] Hys: hysteresis parameter of the event;

[0181] Off: The offset parameter of the event.

[0182] If the reporting type is event-triggered, to avoid frequent reporting or ping-pong switching, the base station configures a trigger time (timeToTrigger) parameter for each event. If the L3 filtered signal quality of one or more candidate cells within the timeToTrigger time meets the event entry condition, the measurement report is triggered;

[0183] For conditional handover, the UE uses a cell that meets the conditions as a triggering cell and selects one of the triggering cells to perform conditional reconfiguration.

[0184] 6. Conditional Handover

[0185] Conditional handover means the network pre-configures multiple candidate cells for the UE. The UE evaluates the execution conditions of the candidate cells and switches to the corresponding cell when the conditions are met. The execution conditions may include one or two trigger conditions.

[0186] Take the parameters in NR as an example:

[0187] condReconfigId indicates the conditional reconfiguration ID; condExecutionCond is used to configure the execution conditions for the Primary Cell (PCell) change, and condRRCReconfig is used to configure the configuration parameters of the target Master Cell Group (MCG). The three parameters correspond to a set of candidate cell configurations and are used for conditional reconfiguration of a candidate PCell, as shown below:

[0188] The execution conditions above refer to the measurement events configured in the reporting configuration associated with MeasId. For conditional handover, the measurement events support conditional handover event A3 (condEventA3), component handover event A4 (condEventA4), or component handover event A5 (condEventA5). The judgment conditions are the same as those for A3, A4, and A5 above. If the L3 filtered signal quality of one or more candidate cells meets the event entry conditions within the timeToTrigger time, the UE selects the cells that meet the conditions as the triggering cells and selects one of the triggering cells to execute conditional reconfiguration.

[0189] The following describes in detail the AI ​​object management method provided in the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0190] Please refer to FIG5 , which is a flowchart of an AI object management method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method can be executed by a source node, as shown in FIG5 , and includes the following steps:

[0191] Step 501: During handover preparation, a source node sends first information to a first node.

[0192] The first node includes a candidate node or a target node, and the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0193] Information about AI objects supported by the terminal;

[0194] Information about the AI ​​object currently activated on the terminal;

[0195] Information about the first AI object;

[0196] first data collected by the source node and not yet used for AI object training or AI object monitoring;

[0197] Second data collected by the source node and not yet used for AI object reasoning;

[0198] The scope of application of AI object reasoning by terminals;

[0199] Radio Resource Management RRM measurement results;

[0200] Target prediction results;

[0201] Monitoring results of AI objects;

[0202] The AI ​​object includes an AI model or an AI function, the first AI object is an AI object applicable to the terminal saved by the source node, and the target prediction result includes at least one of an RRM measurement prediction result based on the AI ​​object and an event prediction result based on the AI ​​object.

[0203] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned handover preparation process refers to the process in which the source node requests the target node or candidate node to provide the target cell or candidate cell configuration for the terminal. Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first information can be carried in a handover request message (Handover Request message), a terminal context establishment request message (UE CONTEXT SETUP REQUEST message) or a terminal context modification request message (UE CONTEXT MODIFICATION REQUEST message), etc.

[0204] The AI ​​objects supported by the terminal can be understood as the terminal being able to perform reasoning based on the AI ​​objects or the terminal having the ability to perform reasoning using the AI ​​objects, etc. In some optional embodiments, the terminal may report the AI ​​objects supported by the terminal to the source cell through capability reporting information (UECapabilityInformation) or assistance information (UEAssistanceInformation).

[0205] For the AI ​​object currently activated by the terminal, the terminal uses the AI ​​object for reasoning. In some optional embodiments, the AI ​​object currently activated by the terminal may be activated by the source cell instructing the terminal to do so, or the terminal itself may determine activation and notify the source cell.

[0206] The first AI object is an AI object applicable to the terminal and stored by the source node. The AI ​​object applicable to the terminal can be understood as an AI object suitable for performing RRM measurement prediction or event prediction on the terminal. Specifically, the source node transmits information about the AI ​​object applicable to the current terminal to the candidate node or target node, so that the target node obtains the corresponding AI object.

[0207] It should be noted that the information of the above-mentioned AI object may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: the identification of the AI ​​object, the description information of the AI ​​object, the file information of the AI ​​object, the input of the AI ​​object, and the output of the AI ​​object. Specifically, with respect to the identification of the above-mentioned AI object, if the AI ​​object is an AI model, the identification of the above-mentioned AI object may include at least one of the identification of the AI ​​model and the identification of the AI ​​function corresponding to the AI ​​model; if the above-mentioned AI object is an AI function, the identification of the above-mentioned AI object may be the identification of the AI ​​function. The description information of the above-mentioned AI object may include but is not limited to the usage information of the AI ​​object (for example, the validity period and valid range of the AI ​​object), the size of the AI ​​object, and other descriptive information. The file information of the above-mentioned AI object may include but is not limited to the parameter information of the AI ​​object, the structure or architecture information of the AI ​​object, and the like.

[0208] The first data collected by the above-mentioned source node and not yet used for AI object training or AI object monitoring, for example, the source node collects at least one of the input and output of the AI ​​object. If it is determined that cell switching is required before using at least one of the collected input and output of the AI ​​object for AI object training or AI object monitoring, the source node may send at least one of the collected input and output of the AI ​​object to the candidate node or the target node, so that after the cell switching, the target node can perform AI object training or AI object monitoring based on at least one of the input and output of the AI ​​object collected by the source node.

[0209] The second data collected by the above-mentioned source node and not yet used for AI object reasoning, for example, the source node collects the input of the AI ​​object. If it is determined that cell switching is required before using the collected input of the AI ​​object for AI object reasoning, the source node can send the collected input of the AI ​​object to the candidate node or the target node, so that after the cell switching, the target node can perform AI object reasoning based on the input of the AI ​​object collected by the source node. Among them, the above-mentioned AI object reasoning based on the input of the AI ​​object collected by the source node can be understood as the AI ​​object reasoning based on the input of the AI ​​object collected by the source node.

[0210] The applicable scope of the terminal for AI object reasoning can be understood as the applicable scope of the terminal for reasoning based on the AI ​​object, for example, the frequency range, cell range, tracking area (TA) range, or slice range for the terminal for AI object reasoning. Taking the applicable scope as the cell range as an example, the AI ​​object activated by the terminal may be applicable to multiple cells, but the terminal only reasons about the AI ​​object for some cells. Therefore, the candidate node or target node can configure the terminal with a candidate cell or target cell within the applicable scope of reasoning based on the AI ​​object by obtaining the applicable scope of the terminal for AI object reasoning.

[0211] The above-mentioned target prediction result may include at least one of an RRM measurement prediction result based on an AI object and an event prediction result based on an AI object, wherein the above-mentioned RRM measurement prediction result based on an AI object can be understood as the result obtained by performing RRM measurement prediction based on an AI object, and the above-mentioned event prediction result based on an AI object can be understood as the result obtained by performing event prediction based on an AI object. Exemplarily, the above-mentioned event prediction result may include but is not limited to at least one of a prediction result of a measurement event, a prediction result of a radio link failure (RLF), and a prediction result of a handover failure (HOF).

[0212] The monitoring results of the above-mentioned AI objects can be understood as the monitoring results obtained by monitoring the AI ​​objects. For example, the AI ​​objects can be monitored based on the monitoring indicator parameters predefined by the network side device configuration or the protocol, wherein the above-mentioned monitoring indicator parameters include RRM measurement prediction accuracy, the prediction accuracy of the optimal cell, the prediction accuracy of the optimal beam, the prediction accuracy of HOF, the prediction accuracy of RLF, the prediction accuracy of the measurement event, the number or probability of abnormal events in the first time period, the switching delay or interruption duration in the second time period, the number of switches per unit time or the third time period, etc.

[0213] In this embodiment, the source node sends first information to the first node, and the first node can then configure a target cell or candidate cell for the terminal based on the first information, or the first node can perform AI object training, AI object monitoring, AI object reasoning, AI object management operations, etc. based on the first information. This embodiment is described below with examples.

[0214] The source node indicates the AI ​​object information supported by the terminal to the first node, so that the first node can provide indication information of AI object management operations in the candidate cell or target cell configuration based on the AI ​​object information supported by the terminal, such as the selection, activation, deactivation, switching or fallback of the AI ​​object, so that the terminal can quickly execute the AI ​​object management operation indicated by the first node based on the indication information after the switching is completed.

[0215] The source node indicates the AI ​​object information currently activated by the terminal to the first node, so that the first node can provide indication information of AI object management operations in the candidate cell or target cell configuration based on the AI ​​object information currently activated by the terminal, such as the selection, activation, deactivation, switching or fallback of the AI ​​object, so that the terminal can quickly execute the AI ​​object management operation indicated by the first node based on the indication information after the switching is completed.

[0216] The source node indicates the information of the first AI object to the first node, so that after the terminal switches to the target cell, the first node can use the first AI object provided by the source node to perform AI object reasoning on the terminal to continue to support measurement prediction or event prediction functions, etc.

[0217] The source node sends the collected first data that has not yet been used for AI object training or AI object monitoring to the first node, so that the first node can use the first data for AI object training or AI object monitoring, which is conducive to making full use of the data collected at the source node and avoiding repeated collection; in addition, the first node uses the first data that has not been used for AI object monitoring to monitor the AI ​​object, which is also conducive to ensuring the accuracy of the prediction results of the AI ​​object.

[0218] The source node sends the collected second data that has not yet been used for AI object reasoning to the first node, so that the first node can use the second data to perform AI object reasoning and obtain a prediction result. That is, the first node can use the data collected at the source node to obtain a prediction result, which is conducive to optimizing the performance of the terminal in the target cell.

[0219] The source node sends the applicable scope of the terminal for AI object reasoning to the first node, so that the first node can determine the applicable scope of the terminal's AI object reasoning, and thus adjust the applicable scope of the AI ​​object according to its own needs. For example, if the original applicable scope is large and the first node does not need to perform reasoning within such a large scope, the first node can reduce the applicable scope; or the first node instructs the terminal to delete / release the AI ​​object. For example, if the first node is no longer within the applicable scope, the first node can instruct the terminal to release the AI ​​object.

[0220] The source node sends the RRM measurement results to the first node, so that the first node can determine the target cell / beam quality based on the RRM measurement results to provide an appropriate configuration.

[0221] The source node sends the target prediction result to the first node, so that the first node can judge the target cell / beam quality based on the target prediction result to provide a suitable configuration.

[0222] The source node sends the monitoring results of the AI ​​object to the first node, so that the first node can judge the validity of the AI ​​object based on the target prediction results and make decisions on AI object management operations, such as selection, activation, deactivation, switching or rollback of the AI ​​object.

[0223] In an embodiment of the present application, during a handover preparation process, a source node sends first information to a first node; wherein the first node includes a candidate node or a target node, and the first information includes at least one of the following: information about AI objects supported by the terminal; information about an AI object currently activated by the terminal; information about a first AI object; first data collected by the source node that has not been used for AI object training or AI object monitoring; second data collected by the source node that has not been used for AI object reasoning; an applicable scope for AI object reasoning by the terminal; RRM measurement results; target prediction results; and monitoring results of an AI object; the AI ​​object includes an AI model or an AI function, the first AI object is an AI object applicable to the terminal stored by the source node, and the target prediction result includes at least one of an RRM measurement prediction result based on the AI ​​object and an event prediction result based on the AI ​​object. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, in the case of a cell handover, relevant information about the AI ​​object is exchanged between the source node and the first node. In this way, after the cell handover, the target cell can more accurately manage the AI ​​objects related to the terminal, thereby facilitating the terminal to more accurately and effectively perform reasoning based on the AI ​​object.

[0285] 2. The prediction accuracy of the optimal beam or optimal cell is determined according to the following steps:

[0286] Step S11: The terminal predicts at the first moment the optimal beam or optimal cell at the second moment;

[0287] Step S12: The terminal measures and obtains signal qualities of m beams or n cells at a second moment, where the m beams include a predicted optimal beam, or the n cells include a predicted optimal cell.

[0288] Step S13: The terminal sorts the signals from high to low according to the signal quality, and determines the actual optimal beam or optimal cell;

[0295] Step S31: The terminal predicts at the fifth moment that HOF will occur in the second cell at the sixth moment;

[0296] Step S32: The terminal determines whether a HOF will occur at the sixth moment based on the measurement results of the second cell between the fifth moment and the sixth moment. How to determine the HOF based on the measurement results can be implemented based on the UE or pre-configured by the network. For example, the network can configure a second threshold. When the average signal quality of the second cell within a given time period is lower than the second threshold, the UE determines that a HOF will occur.

[0300] Step S42: The terminal determines whether an RLF will occur at the eighth time based on the measurement results of the third cell between the seventh time and the eighth time. The terminal may reuse the existing Radio Link Monitor (RLM) process to determine whether an RLF will occur based on signal quality.

[0301] Step S43: The terminal determines whether the RLF prediction is accurate based on the RLF prediction result and the actual result.

[0302] 6. Number of occurrences / probability of abnormal events within the first time period: The terminal counts the number of occurrences / probability of abnormal events within the first time period (predefined by network configuration or protocol).

[0304] 8. Number of handovers per unit time or a third time period: The terminal counts the number of handovers per unit time or a third time period (predefined by network configuration or protocol).

[0308] Please refer to FIG6 , which is a flowchart of an AI object management method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method can be executed by the first node, as shown in FIG6 , and includes the following steps:

[0309] Step 601: During handover preparation, a first node receives first information sent by a source node.

[0310] The first node includes a candidate node or a target node, and the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0311] Information about AI objects supported by the terminal;

[0312] Information about the AI ​​object currently activated on the terminal;

[0313] Information about the first AI object;

[0324] In one embodiment, the first node may determine configuration information of the first cell based on the first information, and send the configuration information of the first cell to the source node, so that the source node can send the configuration information of the first cell to the terminal. For example, when the first information includes information about an AI object currently activated by the terminal, the first node may configure a first cell that supports the activated AI object for the terminal based on the information about the currently activated AI object; or, when the first information includes information about supported AI objects, the first node may configure a first cell that supports the AI ​​object supported by the terminal for the terminal based on the information about the AI ​​objects supported by the terminal.

For example, when the terminal performs RRM measurement prediction based on the AI ​​object, if the terminal receives instruction information to fall back to the non-AI operation, the terminal stops performing RRM measurement prediction based on the AI ​​object and reporting the RRM measurement prediction result, and performs RRM measurement to obtain and report the RRM measurement result.

[0370] The number of switching times per unit time or within the third time period.

[0371] It should be noted that the implementation of this embodiment can refer to the relevant description of the embodiment shown in Figure 6, and will not be repeated here.

[0372] Please refer to FIG. 7 , which is a flowchart of an AI object management method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method can be executed by a terminal, as shown in FIG. 7 , and includes the following steps:

[0373] Step 701: When handover is being performed or completed, the terminal performs a second operation.

[0374] The second operation includes at least one of the following:

[0375] Deactivate the AI ​​object activated in the source cell;

[0376] Release the AI ​​object from the source cell;

[0377] Release the AI ​​object that applies only to the source cell;

[0378] Release AI objects that are out of scope;

[0379] releasing collected data corresponding to a second AI object, where the second AI object is an AI object that has been deactivated or released by the terminal;

[0380] If an actual result corresponding to the monitoring result of the third AI object is not reported to the source cell, reporting the actual result corresponding to the monitoring result of the third AI object to the target cell, where the third AI object is an AI object that remains activated when the terminal is handed over from the source cell to the target cell;

[0381] The AI ​​object includes an AI model or an AI function.

[0382] In this embodiment, the AI ​​object from the source cell may be understood as an AI object transmitted by the source cell to the terminal.

[0383] The aforementioned applicable scope may include, but is not limited to, a cell range, a frequency range, etc. The applicable scope of the aforementioned AI object can be understood as the range within which reasoning can be performed based on the AI ​​object. For example, an AI object that exceeds the applicable scope may include, for example, a target cell that is not within the cell range for which the AI ​​object is applicable, or a target cell frequency that is not within the frequency range for which the AI ​​object is applicable. Optionally, releasing an AI object that exceeds the applicable scope may also be referred to as releasing a fourth AI object, where the applicable scope of the fourth AI object does not include the target cell or the target cell frequency.

[0384] The following is an example to illustrate this embodiment:

[0385] When handover is performed or completed, the terminal deactivates the AI ​​object activated in the source cell to avoid the AI ​​object activated in the source cell being unapplicable in the target cell, resulting in system performance degradation.

[0386] When handover is performed or completed, the terminal releases the AI ​​object from the source cell to avoid the AI ​​object used in the source cell being unapplicable in the target cell, resulting in system performance degradation.

[0387] When performing handover or handover completion, the terminal releases the AI ​​object that is only applicable to the source cell. Since the AI ​​object that is only applicable to the source cell is not applicable in the target cell, it will cause system performance degradation. Therefore, releasing the AI ​​object that is only applicable to the source cell is beneficial to reducing system performance degradation.

[0388] When performing handover or handover completion, the terminal releases the AI ​​objects that are out of scope. Since the AI ​​objects that are out of scope are not applicable in the target cell, it will cause system performance to degrade. Therefore, releasing the AI ​​objects that are out of scope is beneficial to reducing system performance degradation.

[0389] When switching is executed or completed, the terminal releases the collected data corresponding to the AI ​​object that has been deactivated or released by the terminal. Since the collected data corresponding to the deactivated or released AI object is no longer useful, storage space can be saved after release.

[0390] When handover is executed or completed, if the actual result corresponding to the monitoring result of the third AI object has not been reported to the source cell, the terminal reports the actual result corresponding to the monitoring result of the third AI object to the target cell, so that the target cell can continue to monitor the AI ​​object to ensure the accuracy of the prediction result of the AI ​​object.

[0391] It should be noted that the node in the embodiment of the present application may include a distributed unit (DU), a centralized unit (CU) or a base station, etc. The switching in the embodiment of the present application may include L1 / L2-triggered mobility (LTM) or a primary / secondary cell change (PSCell change), etc.; the conditional switching in the embodiment of the present application may include conditional primary / secondary cell addition / modification (Conditional PSCell addition / change) or conditional LTM (i.e., Condition L1 / L2-triggered mobility).

[0392] It should also be noted that the AI ​​object management method provided in the embodiments of this application can be executed by an AI object management device, or by a control module within the AI ​​object management device that is configured to execute the AI ​​object management method. In the embodiments of this application, the AI ​​object management device provided in the embodiments of this application is described using the AI ​​object management device executing the AI ​​object management method as an example.
