Shared Semantic Library Access for Network-Assisted Communication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing semantic communication technologies rely on private semantic libraries constructed by application service providers, limiting user access and efficiency due to insufficient computing resources and storage capabilities in terminal devices, hindering effective semantic extraction and recovery processes.
Innovation Solution
A semantic library is stored in a network element within the core or access network, enabling any device to obtain it, thus making the library public and reducing the computational burden on terminal devices by assisting in semantic processing tasks.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If terminal devices construct and store semantic libraries locally, then semantic processing can be performed, but computing resources and storage capabilities are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
A semantic library server is introduced as an intermediary component between terminal devices and the semantic library. The server stores and manages the semantic library, allowing terminal devices to access it remotely without requiring large local storage capacities or computing resources for library maintenance.
Solution Approach 2:
The semantic library is moved from the terminal device dimension to a network-based server dimension. This dimensional shift allows terminal devices to access the library through network communication rather than requiring local storage, effectively resolving the storage capacity limitation.
2Reliability
If semantic libraries are made private by application service providers, then library control is maintained, but user access and friendliness are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The semantic library server provides universal access to multiple terminal devices simultaneously. The server maintains centralized control while enabling any authenticated terminal device to access the library, combining security with user-friendly accessibility.
Solution Approach 2:
Terminal devices can autonomously retrieve and use the semantic library from the server without requiring complex local deployment or configuration. The system provides self-service access where devices simply need network connectivity to utilize the library functions.
Data Source
AI summary
A semantic information transmission method and a communication apparatus are provided. A semantic library is stored in a network element in a core network or an access network, and any device (for example, a terminal device or a server) accessing the core network or the access network can obtain the semantic library from the network element. In this way, the semantic library is public. In addition, the network element may assist the terminal device or the server in performing processes such as semantic information extraction, semantic encoding, and channel encoding, or channel decoding, semantic decoding, and semantic recovery.
