How to pass filename from controller to model?

Question

Yii

The controller is described as follows

if (Yii::$app->request->isPost) {
            $model->file = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'file');
            if ($model->file && $model->validate()) {
                $model->file->saveAs($model->file);
