  • 构建自动化流程生成9000组问答对,覆盖三大通信文档源
  • LLM类嵌入模型在准确率和抗干扰性上显著优于传统模型
  • 发现领域指令反而降低自然语言规范的检索效果

大语言模型在通信领域关键任务中广泛应用,依赖检索增强生成(RAG)将通用模型适配持续演进的标准。然而,现有通用评测基准难以捕捉通信语料密集、缩写多、跨引用复杂的特性。为此,我们提出TeleEmbedBench,首个专为通信领域设计的大规模多语料嵌入评测基准。该基准涵盖O-RAN Alliance规范、3GPP发布文档及srsRAN开源代码库,共包含9000个问题-片段对,采用512、1024、2048三种标准片段长度。为避免人工标注瓶颈,我们设计新型自动化流程:由一个LLM从文本片段生成特定查询,再由第二个LLM按严格标准验证。我们全面评估了八种嵌入模型,包括标准sentence-transformers与LLM-based嵌入器。结果表明,Qwen3、EmbeddingGemma等基于LLM的嵌入器在检索准确率与跨域干扰鲁棒性方面均显著优于传统模型。此外,我们引入TeleEmbedBench-Clean以评估模型对噪声、不完整用户查询的鲁棒性。分析还发现,虽领域特定任务指令提升原始代码的嵌入表现,却反而降低了自然语言通信规范的检索性能。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in the telecommunications domain for critical tasks, relying heavily on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to adapt general-purpose models to continuously evolving standards. However, a significant gap exists in evaluating the embedding models that power these RAG pipelines, as general-purpose benchmarks fail to capture the dense, acronym-heavy, and highly cross-referential nature of telecommunications corpora. To address this, we introduce TeleEmbedBench, the first large-scale, multi-corpus embedding benchmark designed specifically for telecommunications. The benchmark spans three heterogeneous corpora: O-RAN Alliance specifications, 3GPP release documents, and the srsRAN open-source codebase, comprising 9,000 question-chunk pairs across three standard chunk sizes (512, 1024, and 2048 tokens). To construct this dataset at scale without manual annotation bottlenecks, we employ a novel automated pipeline where one LLM generates specific queries from text chunks and a secondary LLM validates them across strict criteria. We comprehensively evaluate eight embedding models, spanning standard sentence-transformers and LLM-based embedders. Our results demonstrate that LLM-based embedders, such as Qwen3 and EmbeddingGemma, consistently and significantly outperform traditional sentence-transformers in both retrieval accuracy and robustness against cross-domain interference. Additionally, we introduce TeleEmbedBench-Clean to evaluate model robustness against noisy, incomplete user queries. Finally, our analysis reveals that while domain-specific task instructions improve embedder performance for raw source code, they paradoxically degrade retrieval performance for natural language telecommunications specifications.
