1Productivity

If an AI model is deployed in a wireless communication network, then network performance can be improved through AI-based applications, but network performance becomes unstable and deteriorates when environmental conditions change

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork performanceVSAvoidperformance stability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic AI model switching based on environmental conditions. The network device monitors parameters such as moving speed and channel environment, and dynamically switches between different AI models according to the current environment. This transforms the static AI model deployment into a dynamic system that adapts to changing conditions, resolving the contradiction between performance improvement and stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of AI model selection based on environmental parameters. By establishing correspondence between environmental conditions (such as moving speed ranges, channel states) and appropriate AI models, the system selects the most suitable model for current conditions. This parameter-based model selection ensures both high performance and stability across different operating scenarios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Device complexity

If a single AI model is used for all environmental conditions, then device complexity is reduced, but the model cannot adapt to environmental changes and performance deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel management complexityVSAvoidenvironmental adaptation capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the AI model library into multiple specialized models, each optimized for specific environmental conditions. Instead of using one general model for all scenarios, the system divides models based on their suitability for different conditions (e.g., high-speed vs. low-speed scenarios). This segmentation allows each model to excel in its designated environment while the overall system maintains adaptability through model switching.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal model selection mechanism that can handle multiple environmental conditions. The correspondence information structure and switching logic serve as a universal framework that works across different AI models and environmental parameters. This multi-functional approach allows the system to adapt to various conditions without requiring separate control mechanisms for each scenario.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

This application provides an AI model switching or updating method. A change of a use environment (a moving speed of an inference network element, a channel environment, and the like) of an AI model can be learned of by monitoring an input or intermediate performance indicator of the AI model, for example, monitoring the input indicator of the AI model or monitoring the intermediate performance indicator of the AI model. In this way, whether the AI model needs to be switched or updated is determined based on correspondence information, to adapt to the change of the use environment of the AI model. This helps alleviate a problem that performance of the AI model decreases or deteriorates due to a great change of the use environment of the AI model.
