Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wireless communication systems lack efficient mechanisms for predicting and reporting measurement events in advance, leading to suboptimal network performance and resource utilization.
Innovation Solution
Implementing artificial intelligence (AI)-based anticipated or predicted measurement reporting in wireless systems, where a wireless transmit and receive unit (WTRU) determines predicted measurements and events, and sends reports based on configured triggers and confidence levels, filtering and averaging measurements according to network configurations.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional measurement reporting mechanisms are used, then the system structure remains simple, but network performance is suboptimal and resource utilization is inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by predicting measurement events in advance using AI/ML models and reporting them before they actually occur. The WTRU determines predicted measurements at future time points and sends reports indicating these predicted events, allowing the network to prepare resources proactively rather than reacting to measurements after they occur.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms where the WTRU receives configuration information including time offsets and trigger conditions from the network, processes these configurations through AI/ML models, and adjusts reporting behavior accordingly. The network receives predicted measurement reports and can modify future configurations based on the accuracy and utility of the predictions.
2Loss of time
If real-time measurement reporting is implemented, then response time is reduced, but message frequency increases and resource consumption rises
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of continuously reporting measurements in real-time, the system performs preliminary prediction of when measurement events are likely to occur and reports only at those predicted moments. This reduces the frequency of reports while maintaining timely information about network conditions, thereby reducing energy consumption while avoiding significant time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of measurement reporting from continuous real-time reporting to event-driven prediction-based reporting. By using AI/ML models to predict when threshold conditions will be met, the system adjusts the reporting timing parameter to send messages only when necessary, optimizing the balance between response time and energy consumption.
3Measurement precision
If predicted measurements are reported with high confidence, then network decision accuracy improves, but reporting threshold requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses feedback from network configurations and predicted measurement results to refine future predictions. The WTRU receives configuration information including trigger conditions and time offsets, processes these through AI/ML models, and adjusts prediction thresholds dynamically. This feedback loop allows the system to achieve high measurement precision without requiring manually configured complex thresholds.
Solution Approach 2:
The WTRU performs self-service by automatically determining prediction thresholds and confidence levels using embedded AI/ML models. Rather than requiring network-side configuration of complex threshold parameters, the WTRU autonomously processes configuration information and adapts its reporting behavior, reducing the complexity burden on network operators while maintaining high prediction accuracy.
Data Source
AI summary
A WTRU may be configured to determine at least one predicted measurement. The at least one predicted measurement may comprise, for example, at least one predicted air interface measurement. The WTRU may determine, based on the at least one predicted measurement, a predicted event and a predicted time associated with the predicted event. The predicted event may comprise, for example, the at least one predicted measurement being less than a threshold. The WTRU may determine, based on the predicted event, the predicted time, and a time offset, to send a report indicating the predicted event. The WTRU may determine to send the report indicating the predicted event, for example, on a condition that a difference between a current time and the predicted time is greater than the time offset. If the condition is met, the WTU may send the report indicating the predicted event.
