Application: Method, device and apparatus for optimizing grant free uplink transmission of machine to machine (M2M) type devices (Patent ID: US20230422277A1)
The patent filed by Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson relates to a method, device, and computer-readable media for selecting transmit power, physical resource block (PRB), and modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for grant-free uplink transmission. The method involves obtaining an observation of the radio environment of the device and selecting an action based on the observation for execution during the next time slot, which includes determining the transmit power, PRB, and MCS for the transmission. The device is designed to operate in machine-to-machine (M2M) communication scenarios and considers factors such as packet buffer length, channel conditions, and power management state in making transmission decisions.
The system utilizes trained neural networks, both actors and critics, to select actions and optimize rewards based on previous actions, observations, and rewards. The actor neural network determines the action to be taken, while the critic neural network evaluates the current state based on observed environment conditions. The training of these networks can be done either locally on the device or in a cloud computing environment, with the possibility of broadcasting critical information to multiple devices via radio channels. Overall, the patent outlines a sophisticated method and device for efficient uplink transmission selection in wireless communication systems, particularly in M2M applications, leveraging neural networks and cloud computing for enhanced decision-making capabilities.
