AI/ML for CSI compression
Position extracted by Claude
Ericsson requires that reference models for inter-vendor collaboration (Options 1, 3a, 3b) be designed using 3GPP channel model based synthetic data rather than field data, citing excessive work and bias risks. They oppose UE-side first training for Options 3/4/5, arguing it necessitates multiple parallel models at the NW-side, and they reject over-the-air delivery for Direction A due to signaling overhead and latency. To address dataset distribution mismatch, Ericsson proposes standardizing the phase normalization of precoding vectors and using mixed datasets for training. For performance monitoring, they conclude that UE reporting of high-resolution target CSI is necessary to enable NW-side intermediate KPI monitoring and error cause detection, specifically proposing enhancements to the eType-II format. Finally, they highlight that AI CSI compression Case 3 incurs computational complexity 200-300 times higher than Rel-18 eType II, necessitating further study on complexity reduction.
Summary
Ericsson presents a comprehensive analysis of inter-vendor training collaboration options for AI/ML-based CSI compression, arguing for the use of 3GPP synthetic data and standardized phase normalization to ensure interoperability. The document evaluates three main directions (A, B, and C), concludes that UE-side first training is unsupported, and emphasizes NW-side performance monitoring using high-resolution target CSI reporting while highlighting significant complexity concerns for temporal domain compression cases.
