1Measurement precision

If AI/ML models are introduced into CSI reporting scenarios, then the accuracy and efficiency of channel state information decoding and recovery can be improved, but the device complexity and research requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveCSI decoding accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces configuration information as an intermediary element that bridges the terminal device and network device. This configuration information contains correspondence relationships between input information of the CSI compression encoding model and CSI reporting information, enabling the AI/ML model to function properly without directly increasing device complexity. The intermediary configuration allows accurate CSI decoding while maintaining manageable system complexity through standardized information exchange protocols.

Inventive Principle:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the network device receives configuration information from the terminal device about the CSI compression encoding model parameters. This feedback loop allows the network device to adjust its de-compression process accordingly, ensuring that the CSI information is accurately recovered without significant loss. The feedback mechanism enables the system to optimize the compression ratio while maintaining information integrity through coordinated compression and de-compression operations.
