具体实施方式
本申请实施例提供一种通信方法及相关装置,能够适配环境的变化,支持有效的数据收发。
下面结合本申请实施例中的附图对本申请实施例进行描述。
首先对本申请实施例涉及的术语进行解释:
本申请实施例涉及的自编码器(AutoEncoder)为一种AI技术。图1为自编码器的一种结构示意图。如图1所示,通过f函数(编码器(Encoder))将输入数据x映射/压缩到隐空间(latent space)的变量z,再通过g函数(解码器(Decoder))从隐空间变量z恢复出数据 其中f函数和g函数可以用神经网络实现,则优化目标可以是表示寻找f函数和g函数的参数,使得恢复数据的误差最小。一般来说,通信系统完成的任务与自编码器很相似,可以将通信系统类比于一种分布式的自编码器(distributed AutoEncoder,DAE)。对于无线通信系统,可以认为发射机将隐空间变量(波形)通过信道发送,并在接收机进行信息恢复。计算机领域的自编码器假设编码器和解码器之间的前向与反向传播为理想传播,而在无需通信系统中,信道是可变的,因此在训练和推 理过程中需要考虑信道传输带来的影响。
本申请中“/”表示“或”。术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,B和/或C,可以表示:单独存在B,同时存在B和C,单独存在C这三种情况。本申请实施例的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”和“第二”等是用于区别不同的对象,没有明确说明的情况下不用于描述对象的特定顺序。例如,第一通信装置和第二通信装置等是用于区别不同的通信装置,而不是用于描述目标对象的特定顺序。在本申请实施例中,“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示作例子、例证或说明,本申请实施例中被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或方案不应被解释为比其它实施例或设计方案更优选或更具优势。在本申请实施例的描述中,除非另有说明,“多个”的含义是指两个或两个以上。例如,多个处理单元是指两个或两个以上的处理单元。
本申请的技术方案可以应用于第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd generation partnership project,3GPP)相关的蜂窝系统,例如,长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统等第四代(4th generation,4G)通信系统,新无线(new radio,NR)系统等第五代(5th generation,5G)通信系统,支持多种无线技术融合的通信系统,或者是5G之后的演进的通信系统。

本申请实施例中,用于实现接入网设备的功能的装置可以是接入网设备;也可以是能够支持接入网设备实现该功能的装置,例如芯片系统。该装置可以被安装在接入网设备中或者和接入网设备匹配使用。
本申请实施例中,本申请实施例中,终端设备还可以具备AI处理能力,接入网设备也可以具备AI处理能力,适用于AI与通信结合的场景。一种可能的AI与通信结合的场景为AI通信收发机,如图3所示,发射机和接收机的一个或多个模块由一个AI模型(如神经网络)实现,从而获得优异的全局性能。
当前的AI与通信的结合,主要是针对特定场景中给定的系统参数,进行AI模型或训练方法的设计,当设备能力、场景(例如信道条件)或系统参数等环境发生改变后,需要重新设计相应的模型,并进行重新训练,难以在通用的通信系统中部署和使用。
为解决上述问题本申请实施例提供一种通信方法、相关装置以及系统,能够适配信道条件、用户需求等环境的变化,实现有效的数据收发。
图4为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统架构图。如图4所示,该通信系统架构包括第一处理模块410,第二处理模块420,第三处理模块430,第一接口440以及第二接口450。第一处理模块410获取并处理数据1得到数据2,并通过第一接口440将数据2传输至第二处理模块420;第二处理模块420获取并处理数据2得到数据3,并将数据3通过第二接口450传输至第三处理模块430,第三处理模块430获取并处理数据2得到数据4。
第一处理模块410可以设置在发送端,数据1可以是比特流或符号,示例性的,第一处理模块410可以对数据1进行信源编码、信道编码、调制、多输入多输出(multiple-input multiple-output,MIMO)预编码等操作的一项或多项,或者进行与上述一项或多项操作的等效操作;第三处理模块430可以设置在接收端,示例性的,第三处理模块430可以对获取的数据3进行解调、信道译码、信源译码等操作的一些或多项,或者进行与上述一项或多项操作的等效操作,得到数据4,其中数据4可以是对数据1进行恢复得到的比特流或符号。

第二处理模块420也可以称为自适应(selfadaptive)模块,在通信过程中,可以基于环境数据进行调整,上述“调整”可以通过神经网络训练实现,也可以通过解析表达式求解实 现。
上述通信架构中,第一处理模块410和第三处理模块430可以采用离线训练,第二处理模块420可以根据实际环境的变化进行调整,可以通过较低的复杂度,适配环境的变化,实现有效的数据收发。
第一处理模块和第三处理模块由海量环境数据离线训练获得。通信设备中可以预先存储一个或多个第一处理模块,和/或,一个或多个第三处理模块。可选的,该一个或多个第一处理模,和/或,一个或多个第三处理模块可能是从模型服务器中下载的,或者是由第三方提供的。实际使用时,通信设备可以根据自身的计算能力、存储能力、功耗、以及任务类型选择第一处理模块或第三处理模块。而第二处理模块是通信设备本地设置的可以基于实时环境数据进行调整的模块,随着通信环境的变化,第二处理模块的输入/输出参数或模型参数等可能会发生变化,可能导致第一处理模块和第二处理模块不匹配,或者第三处理模块和第二处理模块不匹配的问题。因此通信设备在选择第一处理模块/第三处理模块和第二处理模块的选择时,需要考虑它们之间的适配问题。此外,收发两端的通信设备可以分别选择第一处理模块和第三处理模块共同实现数据收发,第一处理模块的选择和第三处理模块的选择也需要适配才能实现有效通信。
针对上述问题,本申请实施例提供一种注册的流程,发送侧的通信设备的第一处理模块可以通过注册流程与该通信设备内部的第二处理模块适配,还可以通过注册到第二处理模块与接收端的第三处理模块适配,其中第二处理模块可以根据实际的传输环境调整,使得各个处理模块完成数据处理,并适应变化的通信环境,实现有效的数据收发。
一种可能的实现中,可以通过处理实体和自适应实体之间的接口,例如,上述第一接口和第二接口,定义了处理实体和自适应实体之间的交互流程和/或信令。交互流程可以包括注册过程,数据传输过程等。信令涉及的参数可以包括处理实体和自适应实体之间传输的标识信息、数据类型、数据精度、输入维度、输出维度等等。
第一接口和第二接口定义的信令涉及的参数的值可以是标准预定义的,也可以是通过半静态配置或动态配置的。一种可能的实现中,标识信息可以和具体实现的任务类型相关。可选的,任务类型可以通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令指示,例如,在RRC中增加的任务类型或任务标识的字段。一种可能的实现中,数据类型和数据精度可以和任务的性能需求相关。可选的,任务的性能需求可以通过RRC信令指示,例如,在RRC中增加性能需求的字段。一种可能的实现中,输入维度和输出维度可以和实际的传输资源、传输策略等相关,传输资源或传输策略可以通过下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)信令指示。传输策略可以为调制和编码方案(modulation and coding scheme,MCS)。示例性的,基于传输资源和MCS等级确定信息比特数量、编码后比特数量、调制后调制符号数等参数,并用这些参数确定输入维度和/或输出维度。
