Samsung patents method for sending AI data over 5G and 6G networks

Samsung has filed a patent application describing how 5G or 6G networks can handle data used for artificial intelligence and machine learning tasks. The system uses specific rules to decide whether this data should travel through the standard data channel or the management channel to ensure efficient communication between network parts.

Why it mattersThis is interesting for tech enthusiasts because it shows how future mobile networks are being designed to better support the growing demand for AI processing directly within the network infrastructure.

In the filing’s own words

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. According to an example of the present disclosure, there is provided a first network entity comprising a first artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) data transfer function. The first network entity is included in a network and comprises: a transmitter; a receiver; and at least one processor configured to: establish a first connection between the first AI/ML data transfer function and at least one second AI/ML data transfer function included in the network; and control the first AI/ML data transfer function to coordinate communicating AI/ML data with the network over user plane (UP) or control plane (CP) based on at least one rule or policy, wherein the AI/ML data relates to an AI/ML operation; wherein each of the at least one second AI/ML data transfer function is included in a second network entity. Also disclosed herein are examples of methods of a first network entity.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A first network entity comprising a first artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) data transfer function in a wireless communication system, the first network entity comprising: a transmitter; a receiver; and at least one processor configured to: establish a first connection between the first AI/ML data transfer function and at least one second AI/ML data transfer function included in the network, and control the first AI/ML data transfer function to coordinate communicating AI/ML data with the network over user plane (UP) or control plane (CP) based on at least one rule or policy, wherein the AI/ML data relates to an AI/ML operation, wherein each of the at least one second AI/ML data transfer function is included in a second network entity.
