Samsung patents method for phones to adjust AI models in real-time

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

Samsung has filed a patent for a system where a phone tells its cell tower what AI models it is running. The tower then sends signals that help the phone decide if it needs to tweak those models on the fly to handle incoming data better.

Why it mattersThis could make 5G and 6G networks more efficient by allowing devices to adapt their software instantly to changing network conditions.

In the filing’s own words

A system and a method are disclosed for fine-tuning an artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) model online in a wireless communication system. A user equipment (UE) transmits to a base station capability information of fine-tuning online one or more AI/ML models of the UE; receives, from the base station, channels and/or signals for the UE to determine whether a first AI/ML model of the one or more AI/ML models of the UE needs to be fine-tuned; determines to fine-tune the first AI/ML model online based on the channels and/or signals received from the base station and model-generated output from the first AI/ML model; and fine-tunes the first AI/ML model to generate an output that is used for a downlink transmission.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: transmitting, to a base station capability information comprising artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) online fine-tuning of one or more AI/ML models of the UE; receiving, from the base station, channels and/or signals for the UE to determine whether a first AI/ML model of the one or more AI/ML models of the UE needs to be fine-tuned; determining to fine-tune the first AI/ML model online based on the channels and/or signals received from the base station and model-generated output from the first AI/ML model; and fine-tuning the first AI/ML model online to generate an output that is used for a downlink transmission.
