Solution Overview

Problem

Current measurement reporting mechanisms in wireless networks do not enable immediate AI/ML predictions due to non-consecutive or past measurements, necessitating separate training and inference operations, which can be inefficient for mobile devices with computation resources.

Innovation Solution

Enhanced measurement and logging procedures that allow wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) to transmit AI/ML capability information, receive models, and perform conditional logging and training based on accuracy thresholds and location, enabling immediate model validation and reporting.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If legacy measurement procedures are used, then measurement data can be collected, but the data is non-consecutive or contains past measurements which prevents immediate AI/ML predictions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemeasurement data qualityVSAvoidtime delay for predictions
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by having WTRUs perform AI/ML training operations in advance using collected measurement data while in idle or inactive states. The trained models and parameters are prepared beforehand and stored locally, enabling immediate inference operations when needed without waiting for network coordination or data transmission delays.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies self-service by enabling WTRUs to autonomously perform AI/ML training and inference operations using their own computation resources and locally stored measurement data. The devices self-manage the training process, model validation, and parameter updates without requiring continuous network intervention, thereby eliminating time delays associated with centralized processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Reliability

If separate training and inference operations are performed, then AI/ML models can be developed, but the process becomes inefficient for mobile devices with limited computation resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel accuracyVSAvoidoperation efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges training and inference operations by enabling WTRUs to perform both functions using the same local computation resources and measurement data. The training phase uses idle/inactive state data collection, while the inference phase uses the same devices for real-time predictions, eliminating the need for separate centralized training infrastructure and improving overall system efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the AI/ML operations into distinct phases that can be executed independently: data collection during idle/inactive states, training operations when computation resources are available, and inference operations when predictions are needed. This segmentation allows mobile devices to efficiently manage their limited resources by performing different operations at appropriate times rather than requiring all operations simultaneously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Productivity

If WTRUs transmit AI/ML capability information and perform conditional logging, then resource utilization is optimized, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilization efficiencyVSAvoidmeasurement procedure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes operational parameters by introducing conditional logging that adapts to AI/ML model requirements. The system dynamically adjusts logging behavior based on parameters such as model accuracy thresholds, data sufficiency conditions, and specific measurement requirements, allowing efficient resource utilization while managing complexity through parameter-based control rather than structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
