Abstract
Description
Information processing method, device, terminal and network equipment
[0001] This disclosure claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the China Patent Office on April 3, 2024, with application number 202410403686.2 and application name “Information Processing Method, Device, Terminal and Network Equipment”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to an information processing method, apparatus, terminal, and network equipment. Background Art
[0003] The current handover mechanism involves the terminal (User Equipment, UE) performing measurements and reporting the measurement results. The network device evaluates the measurement results reported by the UE and decides whether to trigger a handover. If the network device decides to trigger a handover, it can send a handover command to the UE. After receiving the handover command, the UE begins handover execution. There is a certain delay in the terminal triggering the reporting of measurement results based on measurement events, and there is also a certain delay in the handover command being sent from the network device to the terminal. This delay may result in the network device not receiving the measurement results reported by the terminal, or the terminal not receiving the handover command sent by the network device, which may lead to handover failure.

[0240] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0241] The following is an introduction to the relevant technologies involved in this disclosure:
[0242] 1. Configuration
[0243] The network device performs measurement configuration on the UE that has established a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection (RRC_CONNECTED), and the measurement configuration is provided through RRC dedicated signaling, such as the dedicated signaling being an RRC reconfiguration (RRC Reconfiguration) message or an RRC resume (RRC Resume) message.
[0244] The measurement configuration includes but is not limited to the following parameters:
[0245] 1) Measurement object (MO): The measurement object represents the frequency, time position, subcarrier spacing, etc. of the reference signal to be measured.
[0246] 2) Reporting configuration: indicates the configuration related to the terminal reporting measurement results.
[0247] Measurement reporting can be divided into event-triggered reporting and periodic reporting according to reporting evaluation criteria.
[0248] Event-triggered reporting is further divided into: event-triggered one-time reporting and event-triggered periodic reporting. In the event-triggered one-time reporting, the UE will trigger the sending of the measurement report only when the measurement event configured by the network device meets the threshold and lasts for a period of time (such as the trigger time (TTT)). The process ends after the measurement report is sent once. The reporting configuration corresponding to this criterion includes:
[0249] The trigger type is event triggered (eventTriggered);
[0250] The number of reports (reportAmount) is equal to 1;
[0251] The UE ignores the configured value of reportInterval.
[0252] Event-triggered periodic reporting is a combination of event-triggered reporting and periodic reporting. The UE will trigger the sending of measurement reports only when the measurement event configured by the network device enters the threshold and lasts for a period of time (such as TTT). After the report is triggered, the timer between multiple measurements and the counter for the number of measurements will be started until the number of reports reaches the requirement. The reporting configuration corresponding to this criterion includes:
[0253] The trigger type is eventTriggered;
[0254] reportAmount is greater than 1;
[0255] reportInterval is valid. For example, the network device sets the reporting cycle timer according to the configured reportInterval value.
[0256] After the network device completes the measurement configuration for periodic reporting, the UE will perform measurements at the corresponding frequency points according to the configuration and send measurement reports at the specified reporting period and interval. If the trigger type is periodic, when the maximum number of reports is reached, the UE will autonomously delete the corresponding measurement identifier in the measurement configuration variable. The reporting configuration corresponding to this criterion includes:
[0257] The trigger type is periodical;
[0258] reportAmount is greater than 1;
[0259] reportInterval is valid. For example, the network device sets the reporting cycle timer according to the configured reportInterval value.
[0260] Among them, reportInterval may be one of the range of {120ms,240ms,480ms,640ms,1024ms,2048ms,5120ms,10240ms,20480ms,40960ms,1min,6min,12min,30min}.
[0261] 3) Measurement identity (measId): Each measurement identity is mapped to a measurement object and a reporting configuration.
[0262] 2. Measurement results
[0263] The UE performs corresponding measurements according to the above measurement configuration, and periodically or triggers reporting of the measurement results. The measurement result first includes a measId, that is, the measurement object and reporting configuration corresponding to the measurement result are determined. The measurement result may also include: the measurement result of the serving cell and the measurement result of the neighboring cell. For the reporting of multiple neighboring cells, the measurement results of the multiple neighboring cells are first sorted, and then the cell ID (physCellId) and measurement results of the neighboring cells are reported, such as: Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), signal-to-noise and interference ratio (SINR), etc.
[0264] 3. Switch Execution
[0265] The UE reports the measurement results, and the source serving cell evaluates them to decide whether to trigger a handover. If a handover is triggered, the source serving cell first interacts with the target cell through an interface (handover preparation). The source serving cell then sends a handover command to the UE. After receiving the handover command, the UE begins the handover. During this process, if the signal between the UE and the source serving cell is poor, the UE may not be able to report the measurement results, or the UE may not be able to receive the handover command sent by the source serving cell. As a result, the UE may not be able to complete the handover, which means a handover failure may occur.
[0266] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information processing method, apparatus, terminal, and network device to address the problem of switching failures that are common in current switching mechanisms. The method and apparatus (or terminal or network device) are based on the same patent application concept. Since the principles for solving the problem are similar, the implementation of the method and apparatus (or terminal or network device) can refer to each other, and any repetitions will not be repeated.
[0267] As shown in FIG1 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, comprising the following steps:
[0268] Step 11: The terminal determines an RRM measurement result associated with the first AI or ML model input.
[0269] In some embodiments, the RRM measurement result may be obtained by the terminal through measurement, for example, the RRM measurement result is obtained by the terminal through measurement and used as input to the first AI or ML model.
[0270] In some embodiments, the first AI or ML model includes: a first AI model, and / or, a first ML model.
[0271] In some embodiments, the RRM measurement result includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: RSRP, RSRQ, and SINR.
[0272] Step 12: Obtain first information output by a first AI or ML model based on the RRM measurement result.

The first information includes but is not limited to at least one of the following parameters:

[0276] A first prediction result related to the occurrence of a predicted event; for example: a first prediction result of one or more prediction time points (i.e., the first prediction result can indicate the occurrence of a predicted event at one or more prediction time points), and / or, a first prediction result of one or more prediction time periods (i.e., the first prediction result can indicate the occurrence of a predicted event at one or more prediction time points), etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0277] In some embodiments, the occurrence of the predicted event includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: satisfying the predicted event, not satisfying the predicted event, satisfying the predicted event and the triggering conditions for triggering reporting, satisfying the predicted event and not satisfying the triggering conditions for triggering reporting, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0278] In some embodiments, the predicted event may adopt the same rules as the measurement event, such as RSRP being lower than the RSRP threshold, or RSRQ being lower than the RSRQ threshold, or other measurement events in addition to these, or the predicted event may also be different from the measurement event, such as setting different threshold values corresponding to the predicted event and the measurement event, or the predicted event may also be a new event in addition to the measurement event, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0279] In some embodiments, the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain actual measured quantities (such as measured RSRP values, RSRQ values, SINR values, etc.). The measurement event is a judgment rule for the actual measured quantity, such as a measurement event defined in a protocol.
[0280] For example, the functions of the first AI or ML model include but are not limited to at least one of the following:
[0281] Solution 1: The first AI or ML model takes as input the RRM measurement results (i.e., actual RRM measurement results) actually measured at one or more time points (already occurring time points), and outputs RRM prediction results for one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods). That is, the first information includes the RRM prediction results.
[0282] Solution 2: The input of the first AI or ML model is the RRM measurement results (i.e., RRM actual measurement results) actually measured at one or more time points (time points that have already occurred), and the output is the cell information of the predicted optimal cell at one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods); wherein, the optimal cells predicted by the first AI or ML model can be N, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0283] Solution 3: The input of the first AI or ML model is the RRM measurement results (i.e., RRM actual measurement results) actually measured at one or more time points (time points that have already occurred), and the output is the first prediction results for one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods).
[0284] It should be noted that the input of the first AI or ML model is the RRM measurement results (i.e., RRM actual measurement results) actually measured at one or more time points (time points that have already occurred), and the output can also be the RRM prediction results of one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods) and the cell information of the predicted optimal cell; or the output can also be the RRM prediction results of one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods) and the first prediction results; or the output can also be the cell information of the predicted optimal cell and the first prediction result of one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods); or the output can also be the RRM prediction results of one or more predicted time points (or predicted time periods), the cell information of the predicted optimal cell and the first prediction result, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0285] Step 13: The terminal sends second information to the network device based on the first information; wherein the second information includes at least one of the following parameters:
[0286] RRM prediction results;
[0287] Cell information of the predicted optimal cell; for example, the number of predicted optimal cells may be M, where M is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. In some embodiments, M ≤ N, or M > N, and M may be configured by a network device or based on a protocol agreement, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0288] The first prediction result is related to the occurrence of the predicted event.
[0289] In some embodiments, the second information may be the first information, that is, the second information may be a prediction result of the output of the first AI or ML model, or the second information may be calculated based on the first information.
[0290] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal obtains first information output by the first AI or ML model based on the RRM measurement result and the first AI or ML model reasoning, and sends second information to the network device based on the first information. The first information and / or the second information include at least one of the RRM prediction result, the cell information of the predicted optimal cell, and the first prediction result related to the occurrence of the predicted event, so that the network device can know the prediction result of a certain (or certain) moment or time period in the future at a certain (or certain) moment or time period, and perform corresponding processing in time to avoid wireless link failure, handover failure, or ping-pong effect after successful handover during the handover process, thereby solving the problem that the current handover mechanism is prone to handover failure.
[0291] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the second information by at least one of the following methods:
[0292] In the case where the first information includes an RRM prediction result, the terminal determines that the second information includes the RRM prediction result; for example, the terminal may report the RRM prediction result output by the first AI or ML model to the network device as the second information.
[0293] When the first information includes cell information of the predicted optimal cell, the terminal determines that the second information includes the cell information of the predicted optimal cell; for example, the terminal can report the cell information of the predicted optimal cell output by the first AI or ML model as the second information to the network device.
[0294] When the first information includes a first prediction result, the terminal determines that the second information includes the first prediction result; for example, the terminal can report the first prediction result output by the first AI or ML model as the second information to the network device.

In some embodiments, it may also include the RRM prediction result, the timestamp corresponding to the RRM prediction result, the cell identification information corresponding to the RRM prediction result, the beam identification information corresponding to the RRM prediction result, etc.

[0311] Identification information of the AI or ML function corresponding to the first AI or ML model; for example, the AI or ML function may correspond to one or more AI or ML models (for example, the AI or ML function implements at least one of the above-mentioned solutions 1, 2, and 3, or other solutions, etc.). The terminal may report the identification information of the AI or ML function corresponding to the first AI or ML model to the network device, so that the network device can learn the AI or ML function used for terminal-side inference.
[0312] The timestamp corresponding to one or more prediction results output by the first AI or ML model; wherein the prediction result output by the first AI or ML model includes at least one of the RRM prediction result, the cell information of the predicted optimal cell, and the first prediction result; for example: the terminal can report the corresponding timestamp for each prediction result output by the first AI or ML model; or, the terminal can also only report the timestamps corresponding to some prediction results (which can be one or more).
[0313] The sequence number of the prediction result output by the first AI or ML model corresponding to the timestamp; for example, when the terminal reports the timestamp corresponding to some prediction results (which may be one or more), the sequence number can be used to indicate the prediction result output by the first AI or ML model at that timestamp. Alternatively, when the terminal reports the timestamp of the target prediction result output by the first AI or ML model (for example, the timestamp of the first prediction result), the sequence number can also be used to indicate the prediction result output by the first AI or ML model after the target prediction result, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0314] The time interval for outputting prediction results by the first AI or ML model; for example: when the terminal reports the timestamp corresponding to each of the partial prediction results (which may be one or more) and the time interval, the network device determines the timestamp corresponding to each of the prediction results reported by the terminal based on the timestamp corresponding to each of the partial prediction results (which may be one or more) reported by the terminal and the time interval. Alternatively, the terminal reports the timestamp, sequence number and time interval corresponding to each of the partial prediction results (which may be one or more), and the network device determines the timestamp corresponding to each of the prediction results reported by the terminal based on the timestamp, sequence number and time interval corresponding to each of the partial prediction results (which may be one or more). Alternatively, if the terminal reports the timestamp corresponding to the first prediction result output by the first AI or ML model and only reports the corresponding sequence number for the subsequent prediction results, the network device can infer the timestamp corresponding to the other prediction results based on the timestamp corresponding to the first prediction result, the sequence numbers corresponding to the other prediction results and the time interval to reduce signaling overhead.
[0315] The first indication information is used to indicate the changing trend of the RRM prediction results corresponding to the first cell and / or the first beam; wherein, the first cell and / or the first beam meet the triggering conditions for event triggering reporting.
[0316] In some embodiments, the triggering conditions for the event-triggered reporting can be determined based on the triggering conditions for the event-triggered measurement reporting, or can be different from the triggering conditions for the event-triggered measurement reporting (for example, defining new triggering conditions as triggering conditions for the event-triggered prediction reporting), etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0317] For example, the triggering conditions for the event to be reported include but are not limited to at least one of the following:

[0321] In some embodiments, the timestamp includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: a frame, a subframe, a time slot, a symbol, UTC, GPST, a time interval between the time when the first AI or ML model outputs the prediction result and the reporting time configured by the network device.
[0322] In some embodiments, the first prediction result includes at least one of the following:
[0323] The second indication information is used to indicate whether the cell and / or beam meets the prediction event at one or more prediction time points; for example: for cell 1 and / or beam 1, the second indication information is used to indicate its first prediction result at N prediction time points, which can be indicated by a sequence of length N, such as sequence 001...11 can indicate that cell 1 and / or beam 1 does not meet the prediction event at the first and second prediction time points... cell 1 and / or beam 1 meets the prediction event at the third, N-1th and Nth prediction time points, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0324] The third indication information is used to indicate the cells and / or beams that meet the predicted event at one or more predicted time points; for example: for predicted time point 1, when the third indication information is used to indicate the cells and / or beams that meet the predicted event, the third indication information may include the cell identifier and / or beam identifier that meets the predicted event, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0325] The fourth indication information is used to indicate the cells and / or beams that meet the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting within the first prediction time period. For example, for prediction time period 1, when the fourth indication information is used to indicate the cells and / or beams that meet the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting, the fourth indication information may include the cell identifier and / or beam identifier that meet the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting, etc., but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.
[0326] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the second information by at least one of the following methods:
[0327] In the case where the first prediction result includes second indication information, the terminal determines that the second information includes the second indication information; for example, the terminal can report the second indication information output by the first AI or ML model as the second information to the network device.

[0329] When the first prediction result includes fourth indication information, the terminal determines that the second information includes the fourth indication information; for example, the terminal can report the fourth indication information output by the first AI or ML model as the second information to the network device.
[0330] In the case where the first prediction result includes the second indication information, the terminal determines at least one of the first indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information based on the second indication information, and determines that the second information includes at least one of the first indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information; for example: the terminal can infer and calculate at least one of the first indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information based on the second indication information output by the first AI or ML model, and report at least one of the first indication information, the third indication information, and the fourth indication information as the second information to the network device (in some embodiments, the second information may also include the second indication information at this time).
[0331] In the case where the first prediction result includes the third indication information, the terminal determines the first indication information and / or the fourth indication information based on the third indication information, and determines that the second information includes the first indication information and / or the fourth indication information; for example: the terminal can infer and calculate the first indication information and / or the fourth indication information based on the third indication information output by the first AI or ML model, and report the first indication information and / or the fourth indication information as the second information to the network device (in some embodiments, the second information may also include the third indication information at this time).
[0332] In the case where the first prediction result includes fourth indication information, the terminal determines the first indication information based on the fourth indication information, and determines that the second information includes the first indication information; for example: the terminal can infer and calculate the first indication information based on the fourth indication information output by the first AI or ML model, and report the first indication information as the second information to the network device (in some embodiments, the second information may also include the fourth indication information at this time).

[0339] The sixth indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal reports the changing trend of the RRM prediction result; for example, the network device can indicate in the configuration information that the terminal needs to report the changing trend of the RRM prediction result, or inform the terminal that it does not need to report the changing trend of the RRM prediction result, etc.
[0340] The seventh indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal is allowed to determine whether to report the second information based on the first condition; for example: when the seventh indication information indicates that the terminal is allowed to determine whether to report the second information based on the first condition, the terminal can determine whether to report the second information based on the first condition (that is, determine whether the second information is invalid data based on the first condition); or when the seventh indication information indicates that the terminal is not allowed to determine whether to report the second information based on the first condition, the terminal does not need to determine whether the second information meets the first condition (that is, there is no need to determine whether the second information is invalid data).
[0341] Configuration information of the first condition.
[0342] It should be noted that, in addition to being configured by the network device, the first condition may also be agreed upon by a protocol, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the number of times the signal quality is lower than the first threshold can be configured by the network device or based on a protocol agreement, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0345] At a first predicted time point, the second cell meets the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting, and within a second predicted time period, at least one of handover failure, radio link failure, and ping-pong effect occurs in the second cell. For example, at a predicted future time t2, the cell meets the measurement event or meets the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting, but within a second predicted time period from t2 to t2+t3, at least one of handover failure, radio link failure, and ping-pong effect occurs, then the terminal determines not to predict reporting.

[0346] At the first predicted time point, the second cell and / or the second beam meets the triggering condition for event triggering reporting, and there are one or more predicted time points within the second predicted time period at which the second cell and / or the second beam do not meet the predicted event; for example: when the output of the first AI and / or ML model is the satisfaction of the measurement event at one or more predicted time points, it is predicted that the cell meets the triggering condition for event triggering reporting at time T, but one or more situations in which the measurement event is not met occur within the second predicted time period from T to T+t1, then the UE does not need to perform predictive reporting; or, when the output of the first AI and / or ML model is the cell ID that meets the measurement event at one or more predicted time points, it is predicted that the cell meets the triggering condition for event triggering reporting at time T, but one or more situations in which the measurement event is not met occur within the second predicted time period from T to T+t1, then the UE does not need to perform predictive reporting. In some embodiments, the number of times the measurement event is not met can be configured by the network device side or can be based on a protocol agreement, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0347] The first predicted time point is the start time of the second predicted time period, or the first predicted time point is before the start time of the second predicted time period.

[0453] The speed of the terminal changes;

[0456] The network device monitors the inference performance of the first AI or ML model and determines a performance monitoring result;
[0457] The network device performs AI or ML model switching and / or deactivates the first AI or ML model based on the performance monitoring result.
[0458] The information processing method on the network device side in the embodiment of the present disclosure and the information processing method on the terminal side are based on the same inventive concept. The two embodiments can refer to each other and can achieve the same technical effects. To avoid repetition, they will not be described here.
[0459] The information processing method disclosed herein is described below with reference to specific embodiments:
[0460] Example 1-1: When the AI / ML model is inferred on the UE side, the input of the AI / ML model is the RRM measurement results (or RRM measurement results) actually measured at one or more time points, and the output is the RRM prediction results predicted at one or more time points.
[0461] Step 1: AI / ML model inference On the UE side, the input of the AI / ML model is the actual RRM measurement results measured at one or more historical time points. Optionally, one or more of the following can be input: cell ID, beam ID, UE location, UE movement speed, UE movement trajectory, etc. The output is the RRM prediction results at one or more predicted time points. Optionally, the cell ID and / or beam ID can also be output.
[0462] Step 2: The UE reports its capabilities. For example, the UE may report at least one of the following capability information:
[0463] Eighth indication information, used to indicate whether the terminal has the ability to determine the RRM prediction result;
[0464] Ninth indication information, used to indicate whether the terminal has the ability to determine the predicted optimal cell;
[0465] The tenth indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal has the ability to determine the first prediction result.
[0466] For example, if the output of the AI / ML model is a predicted RRM prediction result, and the UE only needs to report the RRM prediction result, the UE can directly report the RRM prediction result. However, if the configuration requires the UE to process the RRM prediction result before reporting it, the UE must be capable of processing the RRM prediction result. For example, based on the AI / ML model output, the UE calculates and determines whether any cells will meet the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting in the future (when the predicted event configured by the network meets the threshold and persists for a period of time). That is, at time t1, the AI / ML model infers and outputs the RRM prediction result in the future from t1 to t1+T. Based on this RRM prediction result, the UE calculates whether any cells will meet the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting in the time from t1 to t1+T. If a time t2 (t2>0 and less than or equal to T) within the time from t1 to t1+T meets the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting, the UE reports the possible occurrence of an event-triggered reporting within the time from t1 to t1+T, or at time t2. This capability can be bundled with the AI / ML model on the UE side. When the output of the AI / ML model on the UE side is the RMM prediction result, the UE can be considered to have this capability. Correspondingly, when the output of the AI / ML model is the cell information of the predicted optimal cell or the terminal is able to calculate and determine the predicted optimal cell, the terminal can be considered to have the ability to determine the predicted optimal cell, or when the output of the AI / ML model is the first prediction result or the terminal is able to calculate and determine the first prediction result, the terminal can be considered to have the ability to determine the first prediction result. No further details will be given here.
[0467] Step 3: Since the AI / ML model inference is performed on the UE side, the network device configures the UE-side prediction reporting. The configuration on the network device includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0468] (1) Predicted reporting configuration: The network can configure the UE to predict event triggering one-time reporting, predicted event triggering periodic reporting, and predicted periodic reporting. Predicted periodic reporting is to configure the UE to periodically predict reporting; predicted event triggering periodic reporting means that when the triggering conditions for event triggering reporting are met, the UE periodically predicts reporting; predicted event triggering one-time reporting means that when the triggering conditions for event triggering reporting are met, the UE predicts reporting. The triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting can be events specified in the relevant protocol (such as the triggering conditions for measurement reporting), or some new events can be defined. For example, the AI or ML model outputs a prediction result (that is, the event triggers prediction reporting after the AI / ML model completes the inference once); when there are cells and / or beams that meet the triggering conditions for measurement reporting at the predicted time point or predicted time period (that is, it is predicted that there will be cells and / or beams that meet the triggering conditions for event trigger reporting in the future (the triggering conditions for event trigger reporting can be configured as the triggering conditions for measurement reporting specified in the relevant protocol), the UE triggers the prediction reporting, that is, the UE uses the AI / ML model to perform inference at time t1, and the predicted time output by the AI / ML model after inference is t1 to t1+T. The UE calculates based on the output of the AI / ML model that there is a time t1+t2 (t2 is greater than 0 and less than or equal to T) within the time t1 to t1+T that meets the triggering conditions for event trigger reporting. The UE can report in advance that the triggering conditions for event trigger reporting are met at time t1+t2;
[0469] (2) Auxiliary reporting information: When measurement reporting is triggered, the network device side can configure some auxiliary reporting information for the UE to facilitate the network device side's handover decision. The auxiliary reporting information includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0470] a) Sixth indication information is used to indicate whether the UE reports a change trend of the RRM prediction result. The change trend of the RRM prediction result refers to a change trend of the RRM prediction result within the predicted time period T, including but not limited to one of the following: from low to high, from high to low but not lower than a threshold value, from high to low and then lower than a threshold value, or almost unchanged (for example, the difference between the maximum and minimum values is less than a threshold value). The time period T and the threshold value may be configured by the network device, or may not be configured, or may be based on protocol agreement, etc. For example, time period T may default to time C to B. If the AI / ML model outputs the RRM prediction result for the predicted future time period A to B, and the UE calculates and processes that the RRM prediction result satisfies the triggering condition for event-triggered reporting at future time C (C being a time between A and B), the UE may report the trend of the RRM prediction result from time C to time B based on the RRM prediction result, thereby assisting the network device in making a handover decision. For example, if the configuration is to report upon prediction of meeting the triggering condition for event-triggered reporting, that is, if the UE determines, based on the prediction result, that a cell in the future will meet the triggering condition for event-triggered reporting, the UE predicts and reports the prediction result for the future time in advance, reports the predicted result, and reports the predicted trend of the RRM prediction result. If the trend changes from high to low and then falls below a certain threshold, the network device may choose not to switch to the cell, because switching to the cell may result in handover failure.
[0471] b) The seventh indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal is allowed to determine whether to report the second information based on the first condition, or whether the UE does not report invalid data, that is, whether the UE can decide not to predict and report based on the output of the AI / ML model and some criteria (i.e., the first condition). For example, when the configuration is configured as item (1) in step 3 and predicts that an event will trigger reporting in the future, the UE triggers the prediction reporting configuration, but the UE calculates that a cell meets the triggering condition for event triggering reporting at a certain time t1+t2 in the future based on the output of the AI / ML model, but the AI / ML model prediction result of the cell within the time from t1+t2 to t1+T meets the UE's non-reporting criterion, then the UE will not predict and report. The UE's non-reporting criterion can be:
[0472] i. At a first predicted time point, the second cell and / or the second beam meets the triggering condition for event-triggered reporting, and at one or more predicted time points within a second predicted time period, the RRM prediction result corresponding to the second cell and / or the second beam is less than or equal to a first threshold. For example: the cell is predicted to meet the measurement reporting condition at a future time t2, and the signal quality falls below a certain threshold one or more times between t2 and t2+t3. The threshold and time t3 can be configured by the network device side, or can be fixed values, for example, t3 is equal to T-t2;
[0473] ii. At the first predicted time point, the second cell meets the triggering conditions for event-triggered reporting, and within the second predicted time period, at least one of a handover failure, a radio link failure, and a ping-pong effect occurs in the second cell. For example, at a predicted future time t2, the cell meets the measurement reporting conditions, and a handover failure, a radio link failure, or a ping-pong effect occurs between t2 and t2+t3. The handover failure, radio link failure, or ping-pong effect can be events configured by the network device side, or can be some defined fixed events.
[0474] Step 4: Inference of the AI / ML model: The UE inputs the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points into the AI / ML model, which then infers and outputs them.
[0475] Step 5: The UE predicts and reports based on the output of the AI / ML model and the configuration of the network device. The content reported by the UE includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0476] (1) Direct reporting of RRM prediction results. The content reported by the UE includes:
[0477] a) Model identification, i.e., the shared understanding of the UE’s AI / ML capabilities by both the UE and network equipment during AI / ML model identification.
[0478] b) RRM prediction results and / or corresponding timestamps at one or more predicted time points, where the timestamps include but are not limited to the following:
[0479] i. At least one of the frame, subframe, time slot, and symbol where the RRM prediction result is located;
[0480] ii. UTC time and / or GPS time of the RRM prediction result;
[0481] iii. The time interval between the output time of the RRM prediction result and the prediction reporting time configured by the network device;
[0482] It should be noted that: if the UE reports the RRM prediction results at multiple prediction time points, the UE may report the timestamps corresponding to all RRM prediction results; it may also be the timestamp corresponding to any RRM prediction result, for example, reporting the timestamp corresponding to the first RRM prediction result, because if the network device side knows the interval between the time points predicted by the AI / ML model, then reporting the timestamp of one RRM prediction result can deduce the time of other RRM prediction results. If the timestamp corresponding to a non-first RRM prediction result is reported, the UE may also need to report the number of the RRM prediction result among the multiple prediction results reported;
[0483] (2) The RRM prediction results are processed and reported. The UE calculates the top K optimal cells at one or more predicted time points based on the RRM prediction results output by the AI / ML model, and then reports the calculated and processed information. The content reported by the UE includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: model identifier; one or more optimal cell IDs predicted at one or more predicted time points; RRM prediction results and / or corresponding timestamps. K can be a fixed value or can be configured by the network device side. At the predicted time t output by the AI / ML model, the UE reports the cells with the largest RRM prediction results among the top K as the optimal cells based on the RRM prediction results. For example: K is 2, the AI / ML model outputs the RRM prediction result of 20.2 for cell 1, 10.2 for cell 2, and 19.2 for cell 3 at time t. The UE predicts that the optimal cells at the reported time point t are 1 and 3.
[0484] (3) The RRM prediction results are processed and reported. The UE calculates the satisfaction of the measurement events of the cell at one or more predicted time points based on the RRM prediction results output by the AI / ML model and the measurement events configured on the network device side, and then reports the calculated and processed information. The content reported by the UE includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: model identification; the occurrence of the predicted events of the cell and / or beam at one or more predicted time points; the RRM prediction results and / or the corresponding timestamps. For example: the AI / ML model outputs the RRM prediction results of cell 1 at the predicted future time points t1, t2, and t3. The UE determines whether cell 1 meets the predicted events at time points t1, t2, and t3 based on the predicted events configured on the network device side (the predicted event is a formula with the RRM prediction result as a variable), and then makes a prediction report.
[0485] (4) The RRM prediction results are processed and reported. The UE calculates the cell IDs that meet the measurement events at one or more predicted time points based on the RRM prediction results output by the AI / ML model and the measurement events configured on the network device side, and then reports the calculated and processed information. The content reported by the UE includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: model identification; cell IDs that meet the prediction events predicted at one or more predicted time points; RRM prediction results and / or corresponding timestamps. For example: the AI / ML model outputs the RRM prediction results of cells 1, 2, and 3 at the predicted future time point t1. The UE determines whether there are cells that meet the prediction events at time point t1 based on the prediction events configured on the network device side (the prediction event is a formula with the RRM prediction results as variables), and then makes a prediction report.
[0486] (5) The RRM prediction results are processed and reported. The UE calculates whether there are cells that meet the trigger conditions for event trigger reporting within the prediction time based on the RRM prediction results output by the AI / ML model (the UE only reports when the predicted event configured by the network device enters the threshold and lasts for a period of time). The calculated and processed information is then reported. The reporting content includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: model identifier; cell ID and / or corresponding timestamp of the cell that is predicted to meet the trigger conditions for event trigger reporting (for example, the timestamp can be the time when the trigger conditions are met); RRM prediction results and / or corresponding timestamp; change trend of the RRM prediction results of the cells that are predicted to meet the trigger conditions for event trigger reporting. For example: The AI / ML model outputs the RRM prediction results of cell 1 at the predicted future time points t1, t2, ...tm...tn. The UE determines, based on the prediction event configured on the network device side (the prediction event is a formula with the RRM prediction result as a variable), that cell 1 meets the prediction event at time point tm, and that the prediction event is met from tm to tm+TTT (that is, the trigger condition for event triggering reporting is met, when the prediction event configured by the network device enters the threshold and lasts for a period of time (TTT)), and then performs the prediction report.
[0487] Step 6: The network device receives the information reported by the UE and makes a handover decision.
[0488] Step 7: Monitoring of AI / ML models. Model monitoring can be performed on the UE side or on the network device side.
[0489] (1) If the model monitoring is on the UE side and the decision is made on the UE side, the UE side's behavior includes but is not limited to the following:
[0490] a) The network device side configures specific monitoring parameters for the UE. For example, if the UE monitors the difference between the RRM prediction result output by the AI / ML model and the actual measured RRM measurement result at the same time point, the network device side configures a threshold value for the difference for the UE. If the actual difference detected by the UE at a certain moment is greater than the threshold value, the UE considers that the performance of the AI / ML model is poor at this time. If the UE monitors the ratio of at least one of the switching failures, wireless link failures, or ping-pong effects within a period of time T, the network device side configures a threshold value for the ratio and time T for the UE. If the ratio of at least one of the switching failures, wireless link failures, or ping-pong effects within time T is greater than a certain threshold value, the UE considers that the performance of the AI / ML model is poor at this time. When the performance of the AI / ML model is poor, the UE makes a corresponding decision and reports the decision to the network device side. The decision and reporting on the UE side include but are not limited to:
[0491] i. Switch the AI / ML model and report the switched AI / ML model to the network device;
[0492] ii. Deactivate the currently used AI / ML model, revert to a state where the AI / ML model is not in use, and report the information that the AI / ML model is no longer in use to the network device;
[0493] b) The parameters configured on the network device side in a) can be fixed values on the UE side (for example, based on protocol agreement), that is, no configuration is required on the network device side. The behavior of using fixed values for monitoring on the UE side is the same as a). When the performance of the AI / ML model is poor, the UE makes corresponding decisions and reports the decision results to the network device side. The decision and reporting on the UE side are the same as above.
[0494] c) The parameters configured on the network device side in a) can be fixed values on the UE side, that is, no configuration is required on the network device side, and the UE side knows the value. The behavior of using fixed values for monitoring on the UE side is the same as a). When the performance of the AI / ML model is poor, the UE makes corresponding decisions and does not report it to the network device.
[0495] (2) If the model monitoring is on the UE side and the decision is on the network device side, the UE side's behavior includes but is not limited to the following:
[0496] a) Monitoring on the UE side is the same as a) or b) in (1). When the AI / ML model performance is poor, the UE reports the monitoring results to the network device side, which makes the decision. The content reported by the UE side includes but is not limited to:
[0497] i. Model identification and magnitude of differences and / or ratios;
[0498] ii. Model identification and the difference and / or ratio exceeding a threshold, for example: the reported information includes a parameter, and the presence of the parameter indicates that the difference and / or ratio exceeds the threshold;
[0499] iii. Model identifier and the range where the difference and / or ratio exceeds the threshold. For example, if the difference threshold is 30 and the actual difference is 32, the UE reports the model identifier and 2;
[0500] b) The UE side does not have the concept of parameters such as thresholds. The UE side monitors the difference or ratio, and then reports the model identifier and the size of the difference and / or ratio.
[0501] (3) If the model monitoring is on the network device side, the decision is made on the network device side.
[0502] a) The network device indicates the reporting configuration to the UE, instructing the UE to report the RRM measurement results and RRM prediction results;
[0503] b) The UE reports RRM prediction results at one or more time points and RRM measurement results at one or more time points.
[0504] c) The network equipment side monitors and makes decisions based on the reports from the UE side.
[0505] Example 1-2: When the AI / ML model is inferred on the network device side, the input of the AI / ML model is the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points, and the output is the RRM prediction results predicted at one or more time points.
[0506] Step 1: Inference of the AI / ML model on the network device side. The input of the AI / ML model on the network device side is the actual RRM measurement results on the UE side. The network device side needs to configure measurement reporting for the UE. Specifically, it may include one or more of the following:
[0507] (1) Reuse relevant protocols to configure measurement reporting for UE;
[0508] (2) Configuring a new event for event-triggered reporting (i.e., a trigger condition for measurement reporting) for the UE, where the trigger condition includes at least one of the following:
[0509] The time interval after the terminal last reported the RRM measurement result is greater than or equal to the second threshold; for example, the time interval between the current running time and the last report by the UE is T, and the UE triggers the report. T can be configured by the network device side or a fixed value;
[0510] When the terminal speed changes (i.e., the UE running speed changes), the UE triggers a report;
[0511] When the signal quality of the cell where the UE resides deteriorates or falls below a certain threshold, the UE triggers a report;
[0512] (3) Configure the UE for periodic reporting, but define a new parameter (for example, define the reporting period for the terminal to report RRM measurement results). The new parameter is used in conjunction with the original parameters (reportAmount, reportInterval) to enable the UE to continuously report measurement information at multiple time points within the period. For example, after configuring reportAmount and reportInterval, you can configure a new parameter A (reporting period A). The UE uses parameter A as the period and continuously reports reportAmount number of measurement results at intervals of reportInterval within period A.
[0513] Step 2: The UE performs measurement reporting according to the measurement reporting configuration on the network device side;
[0514] Step 3: The network equipment side infers the AI / ML model based on the measurement information reported by the UE side;
[0515] Step 4: Monitoring of AI / ML models. Model monitoring can be done on the network device side:
[0516] a) The network device indicates the reporting configuration to the UE, so that the UE reports the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points;
[0517] b) The UE reports RRM measurement results at one or more time points;
[0518] c) The network equipment side monitors and makes decisions based on the reports from the UE side;
[0519] Example 2-1: Inference of AI / ML Model On the UE side, the input of the AI / ML model is the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points, and the output is the predicted optimal cell at one or more predicted time points.
[0520] Step 1: The input of the AI / ML model is the same as that of Example 1-1, and the output is the predicted optimal cell ID at one or more predicted time points. The number of optimal cells that can be output at a predicted time point can be fixed or the number configured by the network device. Optionally, the RRM prediction result and / or corresponding timestamp of the optimal cell can be output.
[0521] Step 2: The UE reports its capabilities. This step is consistent with step 2 of Example 1-1.
[0522] Step 3: Since the AI / ML model inference is performed on the UE side, the network device configures the UE-side prediction reporting. The configuration on the network device includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0523] (1) Prediction reporting configuration, same as Example 1-1.
[0524] (2) Auxiliary reporting information:
[0525] a) Whether the UE reports the RRM prediction results of the best cell at one or more predicted time points;
[0526] b) Other contents are the same as those in Example 1-1.
[0527] Step 4: Inference of the AI / ML model. This step is consistent with step 4 in Example 1-1.
[0528] Step 5: The UE makes a prediction report based on the output of the AI / ML model and the configuration of the network device. The content reported by the UE includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0529] (1) The UE directly reports the prediction results. The content reported by the UE includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0530] a) Model identification;
[0531] b) One or more optimal cell IDs and / or optimal cell RRM prediction results and / or timestamps predicted at one or more prediction time points, where the timestamp is the same as in Example 1-1.
[0532] (2) The optimal cell prediction result is processed and reported. The UE calculates whether the predicted event of the cell at one or more predicted time points is satisfied based on the optimal cell output by the AI / ML model and the measurement event configured on the network device side, and then reports the calculated and processed information. The content reported by the UE is the same as (3) of step 5 of embodiment 1-1;
[0533] (3) The optimal cell prediction result is processed and reported. The UE calculates the cell IDs that meet the prediction event at one or more predicted time points based on the optimal cell output by the AI / ML model and the prediction event configured on the network device side, and then reports the calculated and processed information. The content reported by the UE is the same as (4) of step 5 of embodiment 1-1;
[0534] (4) The optimal cell prediction result is processed and reported. The UE calculates whether there is a cell that meets the triggering condition for event triggering reporting within the prediction time based on the optimal cell output by the AI / ML model and the predicted event configured on the network device side (the UE only reports the calculated and processed information when the predicted event configured by the network device enters the threshold and lasts for a period of time). The reporting content is the same as step 5 (5) of Example 1-1.
[0535] Step 6: The network device receives the information reported by the UE and makes a handover decision.
[0536] Step 7: Monitoring of AI / ML Models:
[0537] (1) If the model monitoring is on the UE side, the decision is made on the UE side:
[0538] a) is basically the same as Example 1-1, but the UE also monitors the accuracy of the predicted optimal cell. For example, the AI / ML model output predicts the optimal cells at three time points as 1 and 2, but the actual measured optimal cells at time points 1 and 2 are 1 and 2, and the optimal cell at time point 3 is 3, then the accuracy is 2 / 3. Compared with Example 1-1a), the difference is that the network device side also needs to configure the accuracy threshold on the UE side.
[0539] (2) If the model monitoring is on the UE side and the decision is on the network device side:
[0540] a) is basically the same as Example 1-1, but the UE will also monitor the accuracy of predicting the best cell. The difference compared to Example 1-1a) is that the network device side needs to configure the accuracy threshold for the UE side. In addition, the content reported by the UE also includes:
[0541] i. Model identification and the accuracy of predicting the optimal cell;
[0542] ii. The accuracy of the model identification and prediction of the optimal cell exceeds the threshold;
[0543] iii. Model identification and the range where the accuracy of the predicted optimal cell exceeds the threshold.
[0544] (3) If the model monitoring is on the network device side, the decision is made on the network device side:
[0545] a) The network device sends a report configuration instruction to the UE, instructing the UE to report the predicted result of the best cell and the best cell actually measured;
[0546] b) The UE reports according to the configuration on the network device side;
[0547] c) The network equipment side monitors and makes decisions based on the reports from the UE side.
[0548] Example 2-2: Inference of AI / ML Model On the network device side, the input of the AI / ML model is the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points, and the output is the predicted optimal cell at one or more predicted time points.
[0549] The steps of this embodiment are basically the same as those of Embodiment 1-2, but the monitoring of the AI / ML model on the network device side is as follows:
[0550] a) The network device side will report the configuration instructions to the UE, so that the UE reports the actual measured RRM results at one or more time points or the best cell at one or more time points.
[0551] b) The UE performs measurement reporting according to the configuration of the network device side;
[0552] c) The network equipment side monitors and makes decisions based on the reports from the UE side.
[0553] Example 3-1: Inference of AI / ML Model On the UE side, the input of the AI / ML model is the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points, and the output is the predicted occurrence of predicted events at one or more time points.
[0554] Step 1: The input of the AI / ML model is the same as in Example 1-1. The output includes but is not limited to one or more of the following:
[0555] (1) The occurrence of a predicted event for a cell at one or more predicted time points. For example, 1 represents that the cell and / or beam meets the predicted event, and 0 represents that the cell and / or beam does not meet the predicted event. The AI / ML model outputs the prediction results for one to three time points as 0, 0, and 1, meaning that time points 1 and 2 do not meet the predicted event, and time point 3 meets the predicted event. Optionally, at least one of the following items can be output: cell ID, beam ID, corresponding timestamp, and RRM prediction result.
[0556] (2) The cell IDs and / or beam IDs that satisfy the predicted event at one or more predicted time points. At one time point, zero or more cells may satisfy the predicted event. For example, the AI / ML model outputs prediction results of 1, 11, and 19 at time point 1, meaning that cells 1, 11, and 19 satisfy the predicted event at time point 1. Optionally, the corresponding timestamps and / or RRM prediction results may be output.
[0557] (3) The cell ID and / or beam ID that meets the triggering conditions for event triggering reporting within the predicted time. That is, the output is only when the cell meets the predicted event at time T1 and the cell meets the predicted event from T1 to T1+TTT. For example, if the AI / ML model outputs 19 at time point t, that is, cell 19 meets the predicted event from t-TTT to t. Optionally, the corresponding timestamp and / or RRM prediction result can be output;
[0558] Step 2: The UE reports its capabilities. This step is consistent with step 2 of Example 1-1.
[0559] Step 3: Since the AI / ML model is inferred on the UE side, the network device can control the use of the AI / ML model on the UE side and the reporting of the UE-side prediction information. The information configured on the network device side may include one or more of the following:
[0560] (1) Auxiliary reporting information: When triggering measurement reporting, the network device side can configure some auxiliary reporting information for the UE to facilitate the network device side to make handover decisions. The auxiliary reporting information can be:
[0561] a) Whether to report RRM prediction results and / or corresponding timestamps at one or more prediction time points, where the timestamps are the same as those in Example 1-1;
[0562] b) Whether to not report invalid data: The same as in Example 1-1, and a new UE non-reporting criterion (i.e., the first condition) may be added:
[0563] At the first predicted time point, the second cell and / or the second beam meet the trigger conditions for event trigger reporting, and there are one or more predicted time points within the second predicted time period when the second cell and / or the second beam do not meet the predicted event.
[0564] For example: If the output of the AI / ML model is the satisfaction of a predicted event at one or more predicted time points, and it is predicted that the cell will meet the event trigger report at time T, but one or more cases of not meeting the predicted event occur between T and T+t1, then the UE does not need to perform a prediction report. The number of times the predicted event is not met and the time t1 can be configured by the network device side or can be a fixed value.
[0565] For another example: If the output of the AI / ML model is the cell ID that meets the predicted quantity event at one or more predicted time points, and it is predicted that the cell meets the triggering condition for event trigger reporting at time T, but one or more situations in which the predicted event is not met occur within the time from T to T+t1, then the UE does not need to perform a prediction report. The number of times the predicted event is not met and the time t1 can be configured by the network device side or can be a fixed value.
[0566] c) Other contents are the same as those in Example 1-1.
[0567] Step 4: Inference of the AI / ML model. This step is consistent with step 4 in Example 1-1.
[0568] Step 5: The UE performs measurement reporting based on the output of the AI / ML model and the configuration of the network device (periodic trigger reporting, event trigger reporting). The content reported by the UE can be one or more of the following:
[0569] (1) If the AI / ML model outputs the occurrence of a predicted event in a cell at one or more predicted time points (corresponding to the output (1) of the AI / ML model), the UE directly reports the prediction result, and the report content includes:
[0570] a) Model identification;
[0571] b) the occurrence of the predicted event at one or more predicted time points and / or the RRM prediction result and / or the corresponding timestamp, where the timestamp is the same as in Example 1-1;
[0572] (2) If the AI / ML model outputs the cell IDs that satisfy the predicted event at one or more predicted time points (corresponding to the output (2) of the AI / ML model), the UE directly reports the prediction results, and the reported content includes:
[0573] a) Model identification;
[0574] b) IDs of cells that meet the predicted event at one or more time points and / or RRM prediction results and / or corresponding timestamps, where the timestamps are the same as those in Example 1-1;
[0575] (3) If the AI / ML model outputs a cell ID that satisfies the triggering condition for event triggering reporting within the predicted time (corresponding to the output (3) of the AI / ML model), the UE directly reports the prediction result, and the report content includes:
[0576] a) Model identification;
[0577] b) the ID of the cell that meets the triggering conditions for event triggering reporting and / or the RRM prediction result and / or the corresponding timestamp and / or the change trend of the RRM prediction result, where the timestamp is the same as in Example 1-1;
[0578] (4) If the output of the AI / ML model is the output (1) or (2) of the AI / ML model, the UE calculates whether there are cells that meet the trigger conditions for event trigger reporting within the prediction time based on the output of the AI / ML model and the predicted events configured on the network device side (the UE only reports when the predicted events configured on the network device enter the threshold and last for a period of time), and the content of the report is the same as (3).
[0579] Step 6: The network device receives the information reported by the UE and makes a handover decision.
[0580] Step 7: Monitoring of AI / ML Models:
[0581] (1) If the model monitoring is on the UE side, the decision is made on the UE side:
[0582] a) is basically the same as Example 1-1, but the UE also monitors the accuracy of the predicted cell's predicted event satisfaction, the accuracy of the predicted cell ID that satisfies the predicted event, and the difference between the predicted time when the event triggers reporting and the actual time when the event triggers reporting. Compared to Example 1-1a), the difference is that the network device side needs to configure the thresholds of the above monitoring contents on the UE side.
[0583] (2) If the model monitoring is on the UE side and the decision is on the network device side:
[0584] a) is basically the same as Example 1-1, but the UE will also monitor the accuracy of the predicted cell's predicted event satisfaction, the accuracy of the predicted cell ID that satisfies the predicted event, and the difference between the predicted time of triggering the event report and the actual time of triggering the report. Compared with Example 1-1a), the difference is that the network device side needs to configure the threshold of the above monitoring content on the UE side. In addition, the content reported by the UE also includes:
[0585] i. Model identification and the accuracy of the predicted event satisfaction of the cell / the accuracy of the predicted cell ID that satisfies the predicted event / the difference between the predicted time when the event triggers reporting and the actual time when the event triggers reporting;
[0586] ii. Model identification and the accuracy of the predicted event satisfaction of the cell / the accuracy of the predicted cell ID that satisfies the predicted event / whether the difference between the predicted time of triggering the event report and the actual time of triggering the event report exceeds the threshold;
[0587] iii. Model identification and the accuracy of the predicted event satisfaction of the cell / accuracy of the predicted cell ID that satisfies the predicted event / the range within which the difference between the predicted time for triggering the event report and the actual time for triggering the event report exceeds the threshold;
[0588] (3) If the model monitoring is on the network device side, the decision is made on the network device side:
[0589] a) The network device side indicates the reporting configuration to the UE, instructing the UE to report at least one of the following: the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points, the predicted satisfaction of the predicted event of the cell, the actual satisfaction of the predicted event of the cell, the predicted ID of the cell that satisfies the predicted event, the actual ID of the cell that satisfies the predicted event, and the difference between the predicted time when the event triggers reporting and the actual time when the event triggers reporting;
[0590] b) UE reports according to the configuration on the network device side;
[0591] c) The network equipment monitors and makes decisions based on the reports from the UE:
[0592] (1) The accuracy of the predicted event satisfaction of the predicted cell, that is, the ratio of the predicted event satisfaction at one or more time points predicted by the AI / ML model output to the actual predicted event satisfaction at one or more time points. For example, if the AI / ML model outputs the predicted event satisfaction of all nine time points of cell 1 as 1, but the actual measured predicted event satisfaction at all eight time points of cell 1 is 1, and the measured time satisfaction at time point 9 is 0, then the accuracy is 8 / 9 and the error rate is 1 / 9;
[0593] (2) The accuracy of the predicted cell IDs that meet the prediction event, that is, the ratio of the cell IDs that meet the prediction event at one or more time points predicted by the AI / ML model to the cell IDs that meet the measurement event at one or more time points. For example, if the AI / ML model outputs the predicted cell IDs that meet the prediction event at three time points, all of them are 1, 2, and 3, but the actual measured cell IDs that meet the measurement event at time points 1 and 2 are all 1, 2, and 3, and the cell ID that meets the measurement event at time point 3 is 1, then the accuracy is 1 / 3, and the error rate is 2 / 3;
[0594] (3) The difference between the predicted time when the event is triggered and reported and the actual time when the event is triggered and reported, that is, the difference between the predicted time when the event is triggered and reported output by the AI / ML model and the actual time when the event is triggered and reported. For example, if the AI / ML model predicts that the event is triggered and reported at the 200th ms, but the actual measured time when the event is triggered and reported is the 201st ms, then the difference is 1 ms;
[0595] Example 3-2: Inference of AI / ML Model On the network device side, the input of the AI / ML model is the RRM measurement results actually measured at one or more time points, and the output is the optimal cell at one or more time points.
[0596] d) The steps of this embodiment are consistent with those of embodiment 1-2;
[0597] The disclosed embodiments propose a prediction method for time domain measurement using an AI / ML model inferred on the UE side or the network device side. When the AI / ML model is inferred on the UE side, the UE reports the prediction results for one or more future time points based on the output of the AI / ML model inference. When the network device side receives the information reported by the UE side, it promptly performs corresponding processing to avoid wireless link failure, handover failure, or ping-pong effect after successful handover during the handover process. When the AI / ML model is inferred on the network device side, the network device side uses the actual measurement report of the UE side as the input of the AI / ML model to perform AI / ML model inference and early handover to avoid wireless link failure, handover failure, or ping-pong effect after successful handover during the handover process. In addition, the AI / ML model can predict measurement information at one or more future time points, reducing the actual measurement on the UE side, that is, the UE side can reduce the actual measurement at one or more future time points.
[0598] The above embodiments have introduced the information processing method disclosed herein. The following embodiments will further illustrate the corresponding apparatus, terminal, and network equipment in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
