Description

Technical Field

[0001] The following relates generally to wireless communications and, more particularly, to interference measurement of sense signals. Background Art

[0002] Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication content such as voice, video, packet data, messaging, broadcast, etc. These systems can support communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power). Examples of such multiple access systems include fourth generation (4G) systems such as long term evolution (LTE) systems, advanced LTE (LTE-A) systems, or LTE-A Pro systems, and fifth generation (5G) systems that may be referred to as new radio (NR) systems. These systems may employ techniques such as code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), frequency division multiple access (FDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), or discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM). A wireless multiple access communication system may include one or more base stations or one or more network access nodes, each of which simultaneously supports communication for multiple communication devices, also referred to as user equipment (UE).

[0003] In some wireless communication systems, wireless devices (e.g., user equipment (UE)) can be configured to transmit sensing signals, such as radar sensing signals or millimeter wave (mmW) sensing signals, to perform sensing applications. However, the presence of sensing signals within the communication band can cause interference to other wireless devices. If left unmanaged, the interference caused by the sensing signals can introduce excessive noise and negatively impact the efficiency and reliability of wireless communications.

[0051] In some wireless communication systems, a wireless device (e.g., a user equipment (UE)) may be configured to transmit a sensing signal, such as a radar sensing signal or a millimeter wave (mmW) sensing signal, in order to perform a sensing application. Sensing applications may be used to recognize gestures, three-dimensional imaging, virtual reality imaging, beam tracking, distance determination, and the like. In some cases, a UE may be able to transmit both a data transmission signal (e.g., an uplink signal, a sidelink signal) and a sensing signal within a communication band associated with the UE. However, the presence of a sensing signal within the communication band may cause interference at other wireless devices. For example, a first UE (e.g., a "sensing" UE) transmitting a sensing signal may cause interference to communications at a second UE (e.g., a "victim" UE). If not managed, the interference caused by the sensing signal may introduce excessive noise and negatively impact the efficiency and reliability of wireless communications.

[0052] In order to address the interference problem associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE, techniques for managing sensing signal interference are described. In general, the described techniques provide for the management of sensing signal interference. In some aspects, a base station may determine the interference experienced by a "victim" UE attributable to the sensing signal transmitted by the "sensing" UE in order to manage the sensing signal interference. In some aspects, the base station may configure the victim UE with an interference measurement resource set for measuring the interference attributable to the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE. The interference measurement resource set may correspond to a time / frequency resource set of a reference signal, a sensing signal, or both transmitted by the sensing UE. The interference measurement resource set may also be measured via a wideband received signal strength indicator (RSSI). The victim UE may perform a measurement of the sensing signal and send a measurement report to the base station. The base station may then selectively adjust parameters associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE, the resources used for signal reception by the victim UE, or both, in order to mitigate the interference.

[0053] In additional or alternative aspects, the base station may determine the interference experienced by the victim UE by determining the path loss of signals transmitted between the sensing UE and the victim UE. Specifically, the base station may determine the relative positions of the sensing UE and the victim UE relative to each other based on uplink signals received from the sensing UE and the victim UE. In this case, the base station may estimate the path loss between the UEs based on the relative positions of the UEs.

[0054] Aspects of the present disclosure are initially described in the context of wireless communication systems. Additional aspects of the present disclosure are described in the context of example process flows. Aspects of the present disclosure are further illustrated and described by and with reference to apparatus diagrams, system diagrams, and flow diagrams related to interference measurement of sensed signals.

[0055] Figure 1An example of a wireless communication system 100 that supports interference measurement of sensing signals according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. The wireless communication system 100 may include one or more base stations 105, one or more UEs 115, and a core network 130. In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 may be a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, an Advanced LTE (LTE-A) network, an LTE-A Pro network, or a New Radio (NR) network. In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 may support enhanced broadband communication, ultra-reliable (e.g., mission-critical) communication, low-latency communication, communication with low-cost and low-complexity devices, or any combination thereof.

[0056] Base stations 105 may be dispersed throughout a geographic area to form wireless communication system 100 and may be devices of different forms or capabilities. Base stations 105 and UEs 115 may communicate wirelessly via one or more communication links 125. Each base station 105 may provide a coverage area 110 over which a UE 115 and base station 105 may establish one or more communication links 125. Coverage area 110 may be an example of a geographic area over which base stations 105 and UEs 115 may support communication of signals according to one or more radio access technologies.

[0057] UEs 115 may be dispersed throughout the coverage area 110 of the wireless communication system 100, and each UE 115 may be stationary, mobile, or both at different times. UEs 115 may be devices of different forms or capabilities. Figure 1 Some example UEs 115 are shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the UE 115 described herein may be capable of communicating with various types of devices, such as other UEs 115, base stations 105, or network devices (e.g., core network nodes, relay devices, integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes, or other network devices).

[0058] The base stations 105 can communicate with the core network 130, or with each other, or both. For example, the base stations 105 can interface with the core network 130 via one or more backhaul links 120 (e.g., via S1, N2, N3, or other interfaces). The base stations 105 can communicate with each other via the backhaul links 120 (e.g., via X2, Xn, or other interfaces) either directly (e.g., directly between the base stations 105) or indirectly (e.g., via the core network 130), or both. In some examples, the backhaul links 120 can be or include one or more wireless links.

[0059] One or more of the base stations 105 described herein may include or may be referred to by one of ordinary skill in the art as a base station transceiver, a radio base station, an access point, a radio transceiver, a Node B, an eNode B (eNB), a next-generation Node B or a giga-Node B (any of which may be referred to as a gNB), a Home Node B, a Home eNode B, or other suitable terminology.

[0060] UE 115 may include or may be referred to as a mobile device, a wireless device, a remote device, a handheld device, or a subscriber device, or some other suitable terminology, where a "device" may also be referred to as a unit, a station, a terminal, or a client, among other examples. UE 115 may also include or may be referred to as a personal electronic device such as a cellular phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a tablet computer, a laptop computer, or a personal computer. In some examples, UE 115 may include or be referred to as a wireless local loop (WLL) station, an Internet of Things (IoT) device, an Internet of Everything (IoE) device, or a machine type communication (MTC) device, among other examples, which may be implemented in various objects such as home appliances or vehicles, meters, and other examples.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, the UE 115 described herein may be capable of communicating with various types of devices, such as other UEs 115, which may sometimes act as relays, as well as base stations 105 and network devices, including macro eNBs or gNBs, small cell eNBs or gNBs, or relay base stations, among other examples.

[0062] The UE 115 and the base station 105 can wirelessly communicate with each other via one or more communication links 125 on one or more carriers. The term "carrier" can refer to a set of radio spectrum resources having a defined physical layer structure for supporting the communication link 125. For example, a carrier used for the communication link 125 can include a portion of a radio spectrum band (e.g., a bandwidth portion (BWP)) that operates according to one or more physical layer channels for a given radio access technology (e.g., LTE, LTE-A, LTE-A Pro, NR). Each physical layer channel can carry acquisition signaling (e.g., synchronization signals, system information), control signaling to coordinate the operation of the carrier, user data, or other signaling. The wireless communication system 100 can support communication with the UE 115 using carrier aggregation or multi-carrier operation. The UE 115 can be configured with multiple downlink component carriers and one or more uplink component carriers according to a carrier aggregation configuration. Carrier aggregation can be used with both frequency division duplex (FDD) and time division duplex (TDD) component carriers.

[0063] A carrier may be associated with a particular bandwidth of a radio spectrum, and in some examples, the carrier bandwidth may be referred to as the "system bandwidth" of the carrier or wireless communication system 100. For example, the carrier bandwidth may be one of a plurality of determined bandwidths of a carrier for a particular radio access technology (e.g., 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 40, or 80 megahertz (MHz)). A device of the wireless communication system 100 (e.g., a base station 105, a UE 115, or both) may have a hardware configuration that supports communication on a particular carrier bandwidth, or may be configurable to support communication on one of a set of carrier bandwidths. In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 may include a base station 105 or a UE 115 that supports simultaneous communication via carriers associated with multiple carrier bandwidths. In some examples, each served UE 115 may be configured to operate on a portion (e.g., a subband, a BWP) or all of a carrier bandwidth.

[0064] The signal waveform transmitted on the carrier may be composed of multiple subcarriers (e.g., using multicarrier modulation (MCM) techniques such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM)). In a system employing MCM techniques, a resource element may be composed of one symbol period (e.g., the duration of one modulation symbol) and one subcarrier, where the symbol period and subcarrier spacing are inversely proportional. The number of bits carried by each resource element may depend on the modulation scheme (e.g., the order of the modulation scheme, the coding rate of the modulation scheme, or both). Therefore, the more resource elements received by UE 115 and the higher the order of the modulation scheme, the higher the data rate of UE 115 can be. Wireless communication resources may refer to a combination of radio spectrum resources, time resources, and spatial resources (e.g., spatial layers or beams), and the use of multiple spatial layers may further increase the data rate or data integrity for communications with UE 115.

[0065] One or more parameter sets for a carrier may be supported, where the parameter set may include subcarrier spacing (Δf) and cyclic prefix. A carrier may be divided into one or more BWPs with the same or different parameter sets. In some examples, a UE 115 may be configured with multiple BWPs. In some examples, a single BWP for a carrier may be active at a given time, and communications for the UE 115 may be restricted to the one or more active BWPs.

[0066] The time interval for the base station 105 or the UE 115 may be expressed as a multiple of a basic time unit, which may be referred to as T s =1 / (Δf max ·N f ) seconds sampling period, where Δfmax It can represent the maximum supported subcarrier spacing, and N f The maximum supported discrete Fourier transform (DFT) size may be indicated. Time intervals for communication resources may be organized according to radio frames, each radio frame having a specified duration (e.g., 10 milliseconds (ms)). Each radio frame may be identified by a system frame number (SFN) (e.g., ranging from 0 to 1023).

[0067] Each frame may include a plurality of consecutively numbered subframes or time slots, and each subframe or time slot may have the same duration. In some examples, (e.g., in the time domain) a frame may be divided into subframes, and each subframe may be further divided into a plurality of time slots. Alternatively, each frame may include a variable number of time slots, and the number of time slots may depend on the subcarrier spacing. Each time slot may include a plurality of code element periods (e.g., depending on the length of a cyclic prefix prepended to each code element period). In some wireless communication systems 100, a time slot may be further divided into a plurality of mini-time slots containing one or more code elements. In addition to the cyclic prefix, each code element period may contain one or more (e.g., N f The duration of a symbol period may depend on the subcarrier spacing or frequency band of operation.

[0068] A subframe, slot, mini-slot, or symbol may be the smallest scheduling unit (e.g., in the time domain) of the wireless communication system 100 and may be referred to as a transmission time interval (TTI). In some examples, the TTI duration (e.g., the number of symbol periods in a TTI) may be variable. Additionally or alternatively, the smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communication system 100 may be dynamically selected (e.g., in bursts of shortened TTIs (sTTIs)).

[0069] Physical channels may be multiplexed on a carrier according to various techniques. For example, physical control channels and physical data channels may be multiplexed on a downlink carrier using one or more of a time division multiplexing (TDM) technique, a frequency division multiplexing (FDM) technique, or a hybrid TDM-FDM technique. A control region (e.g., a control resource set (CORESET)) for a physical control channel may be defined by multiple symbol periods and may extend over the system bandwidth or a subset of the system bandwidth of a carrier. One or more control regions (e.g., CORESETs) may be configured for a set of UEs 115. For example, one or more of UEs 115 may monitor or search the control region for control information according to one or more search space sets, and each search space set may include one or more control channel candidates in one or more aggregation levels arranged in a cascaded manner. An aggregation level for a control channel candidate may refer to a number of control channel resources (e.g., control channel elements (CCEs)) associated with coded information for a control information format having a given payload size. The search space sets may include a common search space set configured for transmitting control information to multiple UEs 115 , and a UE-specific search space set configured for transmitting control information to a specific UE 115 .

[0070] In some examples, base stations 105 can be mobile, and thus provide communication coverage to mobile geographic coverage areas 110. In some examples, different geographic coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies can overlap, but the different geographic coverage areas 110 can be supported by the same base station 105. In other examples, overlapping geographic coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies can be supported by different base stations 105. The wireless communication system 100 can include, for example, a heterogeneous network in which different types of base stations 105 provide coverage to various geographic coverage areas 110 using the same or different radio access technologies.

[0071] The wireless communication system 100 can be configured to support ultra-reliable communication or low-latency communication, or various combinations thereof. For example, the wireless communication system 100 can be configured to support ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) or mission-critical communication. UE 115 can be designed to support ultra-reliable, low-latency, or critical functions (e.g., mission-critical functions). Ultra-reliable communication can include private communication or group communication, and can be supported by one or more mission-critical services such as mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT), mission-critical video (MCViedo), or mission-critical data (MCData). Support for mission-critical functions can include prioritization of services, and mission-critical services can be used for public safety or general commercial applications. The terms ultra-reliable, low-latency, mission-critical, and ultra-reliable low-latency can be used interchangeably in this article.

[0072] In some examples, UE 115 may also be able to communicate directly with other UEs 115 over a device-to-device (D2D) communication link 135 (e.g., using a point-to-point (P2P) or D2D protocol). One or more UEs 115 employing D2D communication may be within the geographic coverage area 110 of the base station 105. Other UEs 115 in the group may be outside the geographic coverage area 110 of the base station 105 or otherwise unable to receive transmissions from the base station 105. In some examples, a group of UEs 115 communicating via D2D communication may utilize a one-to-many (1:M) system, in which each UE 115 transmits to each other UE 115 in the group. In some examples, the base station 105 facilitates the scheduling of resources for the D2D communication. In other cases, the D2D communication may be performed between the UEs 115 without involving the base station 105.

[0073] In some systems, the D2D communication link 135 can be an example of a communication channel (such as a sidelink communication channel) between vehicles (e.g., UE 115). In some examples, the vehicles can communicate using vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, or some combination of these communications. The vehicles can signal information related to traffic conditions, signal scheduling, weather, safety, emergency situations, or any other information related to the V2X system. In some examples, vehicles in a V2X system can communicate with roadside infrastructure such as roadside units, or communicate with a network using vehicle-to-network (V2N) communication via one or more network nodes (e.g., base station 105), or both.

[0074] The core network 130 may provide user authentication, access authorization, tracking, Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity, and other access, routing, or mobility functions. The core network 130 may be an evolved packet core (EPC) or a 5G core (5GC), which may include at least one control plane entity (e.g., a mobility management entity (MME), an access and mobility management function (AMF)) that manages access and mobility, and at least one user plane entity (e.g., a serving gateway (S-GW), a packet data network (PDN) gateway (P-GW), or a user plane function (UPF)) that routes packets to or interconnects them to external networks. The control plane entities may manage non-access stratum (NAS) functions, such as mobility, authentication, and bearer management, for UEs 115 served by base stations 105 associated with the core network 130. User IP packets may be transmitted via user plane entities that may provide IP address allocation and other functions. The user plane entities may be connected to network operator IP services 150. Operator IP services 150 may include access to the Internet, intranet(s), IP multimedia subsystem (IMS), or packet-switched streaming services.

[0075] Some of the network devices, such as the base station 105, may include subcomponents, such as an access network entity 140, which may be an example of an access node controller (ANC). Each access network entity 140 may communicate with the UE 115 through one or more other access network transmit entities 145, which may be referred to as radio heads, smart radio heads, or transmit / receive points (TRPs). Each access network transmit entity 145 may include one or more antenna panels. In some configurations, the various functions of each access network entity 140 or base station 105 may be distributed across various network devices (e.g., radio heads and ANCs) or consolidated into a single network device (e.g., base station 105).

[0076] The wireless communication system 100 can operate using one or more frequency bands typically in the range of 300 megahertz (MHz) to 300 gigahertz (GHz). Generally, the region from 300 MHz to 3 GHz is referred to as the ultra-high frequency (UHF) region or decimeter band, as wavelengths range from approximately one decimeter to one meter in length. UHF waves can be blocked or redirected by buildings and environmental features, but for macrocells, these waves are sufficient to penetrate structures to provide service to UEs 115 located indoors. Transmission of UHF waves can be associated with smaller antennas and shorter distances (e.g., less than 100 kilometers) compared to transmission using the lower frequencies and longer waves of the high frequency (HF) or very high frequency (VHF) portions of the spectrum below 300 MHz.

[0077] The wireless communication system 100 can utilize both licensed and unlicensed radio spectrum bands. For example, the wireless communication system 100 can employ license assisted access (LAA), LTE-unlicensed (LTE-U) radio access technology, or NR technology in an unlicensed band, such as the 5 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band. When operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum band, devices such as the base station 105 and the UE 115 can use carrier sensing for collision detection and avoidance. In some examples, operation in the unlicensed band can be based on a carrier aggregation configuration (e.g., LAA) in combination with component carriers operating in the licensed band. Operations in the unlicensed spectrum can include downlink transmissions, uplink transmissions, P2P transmissions, or D2D transmissions, among other examples.

[0078] The base station 105 or UE 115 may be equipped with multiple antennas that may be used to employ techniques such as transmit diversity, receive diversity, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications, or beamforming. The antennas of the base station 105 or UE 115 may be located within one or more antenna arrays or antenna panels that may support MIMO operations or transmit or receive beamforming. For example, one or more base station antennas or antenna arrays may be co-located at an antenna assembly, such as an antenna tower. In some examples, the antennas or antenna arrays associated with the base station 105 may be located in different geographic locations. The base station 105 may have an antenna array having multiple rows and columns of antenna ports that the base station 105 may use to support beamforming for communications with the UE 115. Similarly, the UE 115 may have one or more antenna arrays that support various MIMO or beamforming operations. Additionally or alternatively, the antenna panel may support radio frequency beamforming for signals transmitted via the antenna ports.

[0079] The base station 105 or the UE 115 can use MIMO communication to exploit multipath signal propagation and improve spectral efficiency by sending or receiving multiple signals via different spatial layers. Such a technique may be referred to as spatial multiplexing. For example, multiple signals may be sent by a transmitting device via different antennas or different combinations of antennas. Similarly, multiple signals may be received by a receiving device via different antennas or different combinations of antennas. Each of the multiple signals may be referred to as a separate spatial stream and may carry bits associated with the same data stream (e.g., the same codeword) or different data streams (e.g., different codewords). Different spatial layers may be associated with different antenna ports for channel measurement and reporting. MIMO techniques include single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO), in which multiple spatial layers are sent to the same receiving device, and multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), in which multiple spatial layers are sent to multiple devices.

[0080] Beamforming, which may also be referred to as spatial filtering, directional transmission, or directional reception, is a signal processing technique that can be used at a transmitting device or a receiving device (e.g., a base station 105, a UE 115) to shape or steer an antenna beam (e.g., a transmit beam, a receive beam) along a spatial path between the transmitting device and the receiving device. Beamforming can be achieved by combining signals transmitted via antenna elements of an antenna array so that some signals propagating in a particular orientation relative to the antenna array experience constructive interference, while others experience destructive interference. Adjustments to signals transmitted via antenna elements can include the transmitting device or the receiving device applying an amplitude offset, a phase offset, or both to the signals carried via the antenna elements associated with the device. The adjustments associated with each of the antenna elements can be defined by a set of beamforming weights associated with a particular orientation (e.g., relative to the antenna array of the transmitting device or the receiving device, or relative to some other orientation).

[0081] The base station 105 or the UE 115 may use beam scanning techniques as part of a beamforming operation. For example, the base station 105 may use multiple antennas or antenna arrays (e.g., antenna panels) to perform beamforming operations for directional communication with the UE 115. Some signals (e.g., synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals) may be transmitted multiple times by the base station 105 in different directions. For example, the base station 105 may transmit signals according to different sets of beamforming weights associated with different directions of transmission. Transmissions in different beam directions may be used (e.g., by a transmitting device such as the base station 105, or by a receiving device such as the UE 115) to identify the beam direction for later transmission or reception by the base station 105.

[0082] Some signals, such as data signals associated with a particular receiving device, may be transmitted by base station 105 in a single beam direction (e.g., a direction associated with a receiving device such as UE 115). In some examples, the beam direction associated with transmission along a single beam direction may be determined based on signals transmitted in one or more beam directions. For example, UE 115 may receive one or more of the signals transmitted by base station 105 in different directions and may report to base station 105 an indication of the signal received by UE 115 having the highest signal quality or another acceptable signal quality.

[0083] In some examples, transmission by a device (e.g., by a base station 105 or a UE 115) can be performed using multiple beam directions, and the device can use a combination of digital precoding or radio frequency beamforming to produce a combined beam for transmission (e.g., from the base station 105 to the UE 115). The UE 115 can report feedback indicating precoding weights for one or more beam directions, and the feedback can correspond to the configured number of beams across the system bandwidth or one or more subbands. The base station 105 can transmit precoded or unprecoded reference signals (e.g., cell-specific reference signals (CRS), channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS)). The UE 115 can provide feedback for beam selection, which can be a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) or codebook-based feedback (e.g., a multi-panel type codebook, a linear combination type codebook, a port selection type codebook). Although these techniques are described with reference to signals sent by base station 105 in one or more directions, UE 115 may use similar techniques for sending signals multiple times in different directions (e.g., for identifying a beam direction for subsequent transmissions or receptions by UE 115) or for sending signals in a single direction (e.g., for sending data to a receiving device).

[0084] When receiving various signals such as synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals from the base station 105, a receiving device (e.g., UE 115) can try multiple reception configurations (e.g., directional listening). For example, the receiving device can try multiple reception directions by receiving via different antenna subarrays, by processing the received signals according to different antenna subarrays, by receiving according to different receive beamforming weight sets applied to the signals received at multiple antenna elements of the antenna array (e.g., different directional listening weight sets), or by processing the received signals according to different receive beamforming weight sets applied to the signals received at multiple antenna elements of the antenna array, any of which can be referred to as "listening" according to different reception configurations or reception directions. In some examples, the receiving device can use a single reception configuration to receive along a single beam direction (e.g., when receiving data signals). The single reception configuration can be aligned with a beam direction determined based on listening according to different reception configuration directions (e.g., a beam direction determined to have the highest signal strength, highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), or other acceptable signal quality based on listening according to multiple beam directions).

[0085] The wireless communication system 100 can be a packet-based network operating according to a layered protocol stack. In the user plane, communications on the bearer or packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer can be IP-based. The radio link control (RLC) layer can perform packet segmentation and reassembly to communicate on the logical channel. The media access control (MAC) layer can perform priority processing and multiplexing of logical channels to transport channels. The MAC layer can also use error detection technology, error correction technology, or both to support retransmission at the MAC layer to improve link efficiency. In the control plane, the radio resource control (RRC) protocol layer can provide the establishment, configuration, and maintenance of the RRC connection between the UE 115 and the base station 105 or the core network 130 supporting the radio bearer of the user plane data. At the physical layer, the transport channel can be mapped to the physical channel.

[0086] UE 115 and base station 105 can support retransmission of data to increase the likelihood that the data is successfully received. Hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback is a technique for increasing the likelihood that data is correctly received on communication link 125. HARQ can include a combination of error detection (e.g., using a cyclic redundancy check (CRC)), forward error correction (FEC), and retransmission (e.g., automatic repeat request (ARQ)). HARQ can improve the throughput of the MAC layer under poor radio conditions (e.g., low signal-to-noise ratio conditions). In some examples, a device can support simultaneous slot HARQ feedback, wherein the device can provide HARQ feedback in a specific time slot for data received in a previous symbol of the time slot. In other cases, the device can provide HARQ feedback in a subsequent time slot or according to some other time intervals.

[0087] As previously noted herein, some UEs 115 are capable of transmitting both data transmission signals (e.g., uplink signals, sidelink signals) and sensing signals within a communication band associated with the UE 115. However, the presence of sensing signals within the communication band may introduce interference at other wireless devices. For example, a first UE 115 transmitting a sensing signal (e.g., a "sensing" UE 115) may interfere with communications at a second UE 115 (e.g., a "victim" UE 115). If left unmanaged, the interference caused by the sensing signals may introduce excessive noise and negatively impact the efficiency and reliability of wireless communications.

[0088] Accordingly, the UE 115 and the base station 105 of the wireless communication system 100 may support techniques for managing sensing signal interference. Specifically, the techniques described herein may enable a victim UE 115 and / or the base station 105 to estimate interference at the victim UE 115 attributable to a sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE 115. Based on the estimated interference experienced by the victim UE 115, the base station 105 may selectively adjust parameters associated with the sensing UE 115, the victim UE 115, or both to account for the estimated interference.

[0089] For example, the base station 105 of the wireless communication system 100 may configure the victim UE 115 with an interference measurement resource set for measuring interference attributable to a sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE 115. The interference measurement resource set may correspond to a set of time / frequency resources for a reference signal, a sensing signal, or both transmitted by the sensing UE 115. The interference measurement resource set may also be measured via wideband RSSI. The victim UE 115 may then perform measurements of the sensing signal and send a measurement report to the base station 105. The base station 105 may then selectively adjust parameters associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE 115, resources used for signal reception (e.g., downlink reception) by the victim UE 115, or both, to mitigate interference.

[0090] In additional or alternative aspects, the base station 105 may determine the interference experienced by the victim UE 115 by determining a path loss of signals transmitted between the sensing UE 115 and the victim UE 115. Specifically, the base station 105 may determine the relative positions of the sensing UE 115 and the victim UE 115 with respect to each other based on uplink signals received from the sensing UE 115 and the victim UE 115. In this case, the base station 105 may estimate the path loss between the UEs 115 based on the relative positions of the UEs 115.

[0091] In some aspects, the sensing UE 115 can be configured to execute one or more sensing applications. For example, a first sensing application can be associated with recognizing a user's gestures, and a second sensing application can be associated with longer-range virtual reality imaging. Different sensing applications can be associated with different sets of sensing signal parameters and, therefore, can introduce different levels of interference at potential victim UEs 115. In this regard, the base station 105 can be configured to estimate the interference attributable to the sensing signals associated with each sensing application.

[0092] The techniques described herein may enable a victim UE 115 and / or a base station 105 to estimate interference attributable to a sensing signal transmitted by a sensing UE 115. Furthermore, the techniques described herein may enable the base station 105 to adjust parameters associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE 115, parameters associated with signal reception used by the victim UE 115, or both, to reduce interference attributable to the sensing signal. Accordingly, the techniques described herein may facilitate the use of sensing applications while reducing interference attributable to the sensing applications, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of wireless communications within the wireless communication system 100.

[0093] Figure 2An example of a wireless communication system 200 that supports interference measurement of sensing signals according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. In some examples, the wireless communication system 200 can implement aspects of the wireless communication system 100. The wireless communication system 200 can include a first UE 115-a, a second UE 115-b, and a base station 105-a, which can be a reference Figure 1 Examples of UEs 115 and base stations 105 are described. Specifically, as previously described herein, the first UE 115-a may include an example of a "sensing" UE 115-a, and the second UE 115-b may include an example of a "victim" UE 115-b.

[0094] The first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b can communicate with the base station 105-a using communication links 205-a and communication links 205-b, respectively, which can be examples of NR or LTE links between the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b and the base station 105-a, respectively. In some cases, the communication link 205-a and the communication link 205-b may include an example of an access link (e.g., a Uu link). The communication link 205-a and the communication link 205-b may include a bidirectional link that implements both uplink and downlink communications. For example, the first UE 115-a can use the first communication link 205-a to send an uplink signal, such as an uplink control signal or an uplink data signal, to the base station 105-a, and the base station 105-a can use the communication link 205-a to send a downlink signal, such as a downlink control signal or a downlink data signal, to the first UE 115-a. As another example, the second UE 115-b can use the first communication link 205-b to send an uplink signal, such as an uplink control signal or an uplink data signal, to the base station 105-a, and the base station 105 can use the communication link 205-b to send a downlink signal, such as a downlink control signal or a downlink data signal, to the second UE 115-b. The first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b can communicate with each other via the communication link 205-c. In some cases, the communication link 205-c may include an example of a link between the two UEs 115 (e.g., a sidelink communication link, or a PC5 link).

[0095] In some cases, the wireless communication system 200 may support techniques for managing sensing signal interference. Specifically, the techniques described herein may enable a second UE 115-b (e.g., a victim UE 115-b) and / or a base station 105-a to estimate interference at the second UE 115-b attributable to sensing signals transmitted by the first UE 115-a. Based on the estimated interference experienced by the second UE 115-b, the base station 105-a may selectively adjust parameters associated with the first UE 115-a, the second UE 115-b, or both to account for the estimated interference.

[0096] For example, the base station 105-a may identify (e.g., configure, determine) an interference measurement resource set, a sensing resource set, or both. In some aspects, the sensing resource set may include a set of time and frequency resources that the first UE 115-a is to use to transmit a sensing signal 210 associated with one or more sensing applications. Similarly, the interference measurement resource set may include a set of time resources and a set of frequency resources associated with determining interference attributable to the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. The interference measurement resource set may be associated with a signal (e.g., sensing signal 210, uplink signal, reference signal 215, sidelink signal) transmitted by the first UE 115-a. In this regard, the interference measurement signal set may be used by the second UE 115-b to measure signals received from the first UE 115-a. For example, the interference measurement resource set may be associated with a sensing resource set that the first UE 115-a is to use for transmission of the sensing signal 210.

[0097] The base station 105-a may send a configuration message 220-a to the first UE 115-a, wherein the configuration message 220-a includes an indication (e.g., a configuration) of a sensing resource set. In this regard, the configuration message 220-a may indicate a time resource set and a sensing resource set associated with the sensing resource set to be used by the first UE 115-a for transmission of the sensing signal 210. In some aspects, the base station 105-a may send the configuration message 220-a based on identifying (e.g., configuring) the sensing resource set.

[0098] In some aspects, the base station 105-a may additionally identify that a first subcarrier spacing associated with the sensing resource set and / or the interference measurement resource set is greater than a second subcarrier spacing associated with the activated BWP of the second UE 115-b. In this case, the configuration message 220-a sent to the first UE 115-a may include a sensing signal adjustment such that less than all of the symbols configured for the sensing signal 210 are used for transmission of the sensing signal 210. Furthermore, the configuration message 220-a sent to the first UE 115-a may include a subcarrier spacing adjustment such that the first subcarrier spacing is updated to be equal to the second subcarrier spacing. In some aspects, the base station 105-a may configure the sensing resource set such that the starting position and number of symbols in the sensing signal 210 are not a multiple of the first subcarrier spacing divided by the second subcarrier spacing.

[0099] In some aspects, the base station 105-a may send a configuration message 220-b to the second UE 115-b, wherein the configuration message 220-b includes an indication (e.g., a configuration) of an interference measurement resource set. The interference measurement resource set may be associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. In this regard, the configuration message 220-b may indicate a time resource set and a sensing resource set associated with the sensing resource set to be used by the first UE 115-a for transmission of the sensing signal 210. In some aspects, the base station 105-a may send the configuration message 220-b based on identifying (e.g., configuring) the interference measurement resource set.

[0100] In some aspects, the configuration message 220-b sent from the base station 105-a to the second UE 115-b may include information indicating that the interference measurement resource set includes the entire receive bandwidth associated with the second UE 115-b. In this regard, the configuration message 220-b may include an indication that the second UE 115-b is to use the entire receive bandwidth associated with the second UE 115-b to perform measurements associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. Additionally or alternatively, the configuration message 220-b sent from the base station 105-a to the second UE 115-b may include an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a cross-link interference (CLI) measurement resource set for measuring interference associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a.

[0101] For example, the configuration message 220-b sent to the second UE 115-b may include an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters (e.g., RSSI) of the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. As another example, the configuration message 220-b may include an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with the reference signal 215 transmitted by the first UE 115-a.

[0102] In some aspects, when the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) at least partially overlaps with a set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-b, the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) may have a lower priority than the set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-b. For example, where the set of measurement interference resources includes CLI measurement resources for measuring interference associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the set of CLI measurement resources may have a lower priority than a set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-b that at least partially overlaps with the set of CLI measurement resources. In some aspects, an indication of the relative priorities between the sets of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) may be indicated in the configuration message 220-b.

[0103] In some aspects, the first UE 115-a may identify a set of sensing resources to be used for transmission of the sensing signal 210. In some aspects, the first UE 115-c may identify the set of sensing resources based on the configuration message 220-a. Additionally or alternatively, the first UE 115-a may determine on its own the set of sensing signal resources associated with the sensing signal 210 for the sensing application. For example, in some cases, the first UE 115-a may be pre-configured with a set of sensing resources, or may select a set of sensing resources without configuration from the base station 105-a. In this case, the first UE 115-a may send an uplink message 225 to the base station 105-a, where the uplink message 225 indicates the set of sensing resources to be used for transmission of the sensing signal 210. In this example, the base station 105-a may identify the set of sensing resources to be used for transmission of the sensing signal 210 based on the uplink message 225.

[0104] Similarly, the second UE 115-b may identify an interference measurement resource set associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. In some aspects, the second UE 115-b may identify the sensing resource set based on the configuration message 220-b. In some aspects, the second UE 115-b may determine that the interference measurement resource set is associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the reference signal 215 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, or both. For example, the second UE 115-a may determine, based on the configuration message 220-b, that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters (e.g., RSSI) associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. As another example, the second UE 115-b may determine, based on the configuration message 220-b, that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with the reference signal 215 transmitted by the first UE 115-a.

[0105] In some aspects, the second UE 115-b may determine a relative priority of an interference measurement resource set relative to other resource sets used by the second UE 115-b. For example, when the interference measurement resource set at least partially overlaps with a downlink resource set, the second UE 115-b may determine that the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) has a lower priority than the downlink resource set used by the second UE 115-b. In this example, as will be discussed in greater detail herein, when the interference measurement resource set at least partially overlaps with a downlink resource set, the second UE 115-b may determine to avoid performing measurements using the interference measurement resource set.

[0106] In some aspects, the second UE 115-b may additionally determine that a first subcarrier spacing associated with the sensing resource set and / or the interference measurement resource set is greater than a subcarrier spacing associated with an activated BWP of the second UE 115-b. In this case, the second UE 115-b may determine that less than all of the symbols configured for the sensing signal 210 are used for transmission of the sensing signal 210. Additionally or alternatively, the second UE 115-b may determine that a starting position and a number of symbols in the sensing signal 210 are not a multiple of the first subcarrier spacing divided by the second subcarrier spacing.

[0107] The second UE 115-b may receive one or more signals (e.g., sensing signal 210, reference signal 215, uplink signal, sidelink signal) from the first UE 115-a. In some aspects, the signals received by the second UE 115-a may be associated with an interference measurement signal set. In this regard, the one or more signals received from the first UE 115-a may be received within an interference measurement resource set (e.g., within a time resource set and a frequency resource set associated with the interference measurement resource set).

[0108] The one or more signals received from the first UE 115-c may include a sensing signal 210, a reference signal 215, an uplink signal, a sidelink signal, or any combination thereof. For example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring interference and / or an RSSI indicator associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the second UE 115-b may receive the sensing signal 210 from the first UE 115-a. As another example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with the reference signal 215 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the second UE 115-b may receive the reference signal 215 from the first UE 115-a.

[0109] In some cases, the second UE 115-b may perform one or more measurements on one or more signals (e.g., sensing signal 210, reference signal 215, uplink signal, sidelink signal) received from the first UE 115-a. The one or more measurements may include, but are not limited to, RSSI measurements, reference signal received power (RSRP) measurements, reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurements, SNR measurements, signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) measurements, or any combination thereof. In some aspects, the second UE 115-b may perform the one or more measurements based on receiving the configuration message 220-b, identifying the interference measurement resource set, or both. In some cases, the second UE 115-b may generate a measurement report based on the one or more measurements.

[0110] For example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring an RSSI indicator associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the second UE 115-b may perform one or more measurements to determine the RSSI indicator associated with the sensing signal 210. As another example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with the reference signal 215 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the second UE 115-b may perform one or more measurements to determine the one or more parameters (e.g., RSSI, RSRP, RSRQ, SNR, SINR) associated with the reference signal 215.

[0111] In some cases, the second UE 115-b may perform multiple measurement sets associated with sets of sensing signals 210 associated with various sensing applications of the first UE 115-a. For example, the first UE 115-a may be configured to perform a first sensing application using a first set of sensing signals 210-a and a second sensing application using a second set of sensing signals 210-b. In this example, the second UE 115-b may be configured to perform a first measurement set associated with the first sensing application and a second measurement set associated with the second sensing application. In this regard, the second UE 115-b may be configured to perform measurements based on multiple interference measurement resource sets. In some cases, the second UE 115-b may generate a measurement report for each corresponding sensing application.

[0112] As previously noted herein, a set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) may have a lower priority than other resource sets (e.g., downlink resource sets) used by the second UE 115-b. Specifically, the set of interference measurement resources may have a lower priority than a set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-b that at least partially overlaps with the set of interference measurement resources. For example, the second UE 115-b may determine that the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) at least partially overlaps with the set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-b. The set of interference measurement resources may overlap with the set of downlink resources in the time domain, the frequency domain, or both. In this example, the second UE 115-b may avoid performing measurements using the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) based on determining that the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) at least partially overlaps with the set of downlink resources. In addition, the second UE 115-b can use the downlink resource set to receive one or more downlink messages from the base station 105-b based on determining that the interference measurement resource (e.g., CLI measurement resources) set at least partially overlaps with the downlink resource set, avoid performing measurements, or both.

[0113] In some aspects, the second UE 115-b may transmit one or more uplink signals 230 to the base station 105-a. In some cases, the second UE 115-b may transmit the one or more uplink signals 230 to the base station 105-a based on receiving the configuration message 220-b, identifying interference measurement resources, receiving signals (e.g., sensing signals 210, reference signals 215, uplink signals, sidelink signals) from the first UE 115-a, performing measurements on the received signals, or any combination thereof. For example, in some cases, the one or more uplink signals 230 transmitted by the second UE 115-b 340 may include measurement reports based on performing one or more measurements. In this regard, the second UE 115-b may report various parameters associated with the sensing signals 210 and / or reference signals 215 received from the first UE 115-a to the base station 105-a.

[0114] In some aspects, the base station 105-a may determine interference at the second UE 115-b associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. In some aspects, the base station 105-a may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-a based on a sensing resource set, an interference measurement resource set, or both. Additionally, the base station 105-a may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-b based on receiving an uplink message 225, receiving an uplink signal 230 (e.g., a measurement report), or both.

[0115] In some cases, the base station 105-a may determine interference at the second UE 115-b associated with a set of sensing signals 210 associated with various sensing applications of the first UE 115-a. For example, the first UE 115-a may be configured to perform a first sensing application using a first set of sensing signals 210-a and to perform a second sensing application using a second set of sensing signals 210-b. In this example, the base station 105-a may determine first interference at the second UE 115-b that is attributable to the first set of sensing signals 210-a for the first sensing application, and second interference at the second UE 115-b that is attributable to the second set of sensing signals 210-b for the second sensing application.

[0116] Additionally or alternatively, the base station 105-a may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-b based on the relative positions of the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b relative to each other. Specifically, the base station 105-a may estimate the path loss between the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b based on the relative positions of the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b relative to each other, and may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-b based on the estimated path loss.

[0117] For example, in some cases, the base station 105-a can determine the relative position of the second UE 115-b with respect to (e.g., relative to) the first UE 115-a. For example, in some cases, the uplink signal 230 received from the second UE 115-b can include an indication of the position of the second UE 115-b. Similarly, the uplink signal (e.g., uplink message 225, other uplink signal) received from the first UE 115-a can include an indication of the position of the first UE 115-a. In this example, the base station 105-a can determine the relative position of the second UE 115-b with respect to the first UE 115-a based on the indication of the positions of the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b. Additionally, the base station 105-a can determine the path loss between the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b based on the relative position of the second UE 115-b with respect to the first UE 115-a. At this point, the base station 105-a can determine the interference experienced at the second UE 115-b that is attributable to the sensing signal 210 from the first UE 115-a based on the relative position of the second UE 115-b with respect to the first UE 115-a and the estimated path loss between the first UE 115-a and the second UE 115-b.

[0118] In the event that the base station 105-a determines the relative position of the second UE 115-a relative to the first UE 115-a, the base station 105-a may additionally include the relative position of the second UE 115-a in storage objects associated with various sensing applications supported by the first UE 115-a. For example, the base station 105-a may include the relative position of the second UE 115-b in a first storage object associated with the first sensing application and in a second storage object associated with the second sensing application. The storage objects may include any storage objects known in the art, including but not limited to tables, indexes, mappings, and the like. In some aspects, the first storage object and the second storage object may each additionally include other UEs 115 and other relative positions of each of the other UEs 115 relative to the first UE 115-a. For example, the first storage object associated with the first sensing application may include a third UE 115 (not shown) and the relative position of the third UE 115 relative to the first UE 115-a.

[0119] In some aspects, the base station 105-a can be configured to estimate the range of interference and / or potential interference associated with each respective sensing application based on the storage objects associated with each respective sensing application. For example, the base station 105-a can determine, based on the first storage object associated with the first sensing application, that a UE 115 (e.g., a second UE 115-b) included in the first storage object is within the range of a first set of sensing signals 210-a associated with the first sensing application. As another example, the base station 105-a can determine, based on the second storage object associated with the second sensing application, that a UE 115 (e.g., a second UE 115-b) included in the second storage object is within the range of a second set of sensing signals 210-b associated with the second sensing application.

[0120] In some aspects, the base station 105-a may send a configuration message 220-c to the first UE 115-c, a configuration message 220-d to the second UE 115-d, or both, in order to manage (e.g., reduce, eliminate) interference experienced by the second UE 115-b. In this regard, the base station 105-a may send a configuration message 220 (e.g., configuration message 220-c, configuration message 220-d) that includes an indication of parameter adjustments regarding the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, the downlink reception performed by the second UE 115-b, or at least one of the two. Specifically, the base station 105-a may selectively adjust parameters associated with the corresponding sensing application (e.g., the first sensing application, the second sensing application) based on determining that the UE 115 included in the corresponding storage object is within the range of the sensing signal 210 associated with the corresponding sensing application.

[0121] For example, the base station 105-a may send a configuration message 220-c to the first UE 115-a. In some aspects, the configuration message 220-c may include instructions for the first UE 115-a to selectively adjust one or more parameters associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. The parameters associated with the sensing signal 210 that may be selectively adjusted may include, but are not limited to, a set of time resources used for transmission of the sensing signal 210, a set of frequency resources used for transmission of the sensing signal 210, a transmit power associated with the sensing signal 210, a beam direction associated with the sensing signal 210, or any combination thereof. For example, the configuration message 220-c may include instructions for the first UE 115-a to selectively reduce the transmit power at which the sensing signal 210 is transmitted. In this regard, the base station 105-a may cause the first UE 115-a to adjust the parameters associated with the sensing signal 210 to eliminate or reduce interference at the second UE 115-b that is attributable to the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a.

[0122] As another example, as previously noted herein, base station 105-a may determine, based on a first storage object associated with a first sensing application, that a UE 115 (e.g., second UE 115-a) included in the first storage object is within range of a first set of sensing signals 210-a associated with the first sensing application. In this example, based on determining that UE 115 included in the first storage object is within range of the first set of sensing signals 210-a associated with the first sensing application, configuration message 220-c may include an indication for first UE 115-a to selectively adjust a first set of sensing signal parameters associated with the first set of sensing signals 210-a for the sensing application.

[0123] Similarly, the base station 105-a may send a configuration message 220-d to the second UE 115-b. In some aspects, the configuration message 220-d may include an indication for the second UE 115-b to selectively adjust one or more downlink reception parameters used by the second UE 115-b. For example, the configuration message 220-d may include an indication for the second UE 115-b to selectively adjust a set of time resources and / or a set of frequency resources used for downlink reception. In this scenario, the base station 105-a may cause the second UE 115-b to adjust the downlink reception parameters so as to eliminate or reduce interference at the second UE 115-b that is attributable to the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a. For example, the base station 105-a may cause the second UE 115-b to adjust the one or more downlink reception parameters so that the downlink reception resource set does not overlap with the sensing resource set used by the first UE 115-a for transmission of the sensing signal 210.

[0124] The techniques described herein may enable a second UE 115-b and / or a base station 105-a of the wireless communication system 200 to estimate interference attributable to a sensing signal 210 transmitted by a first UE 115-a. Furthermore, the techniques described herein may enable the base station 105-a to adjust parameters associated with the sensing signal 210 transmitted by the first UE 115-a, parameters associated with signal reception used by the second UE 115-b, or both, to reduce interference attributable to the sensing signal 210. Accordingly, the techniques described herein may facilitate the use of sensing applications while reducing interference attributable to the sensing applications, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of wireless communications within the wireless communication system 200.

[0125] Figure 3An example of a process flow 300 for supporting interference measurement of a sensing signal according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. In some examples, the process flow 300 may implement aspects of the wireless communication system 100 or 200, or be implemented by aspects of the wireless communication system 100 or 200. For example, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 As described, the processing flow 300 may illustrate the base station 105-b configuring sensing resources and / or measurement resources, receiving an uplink signal from a second UE 115-d, determining interference at the second UE 115-d, and sending a configuration message to the first UE 115-c and / or the second UE 115-d based on the determined interference.

[0126] In some cases, process flow 300 may include a first UE 115-c, a second UE 115-d, and a base station 105-b, which may be examples of corresponding devices as described herein. Figure 3 The first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d shown may be Figure 2 1 and 115-b. In this regard, the first UE 115-c may include an example of a “sensing” UE 115-c, and the second UE 115-d may include an example of a “victim” UE 115-d. Similarly, Figure 3 The base station 105-b shown may be Figure 2 In some aspects, the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d may be connected to a base station 105-a. Figure 2 Communications are performed on a sidelink communications link 205-c as shown.

[0127] In some examples, the operations shown in process 300 can be performed by hardware (e.g., including circuits, processing blocks, logic components, and other components), code executed by a processor (e.g., software or firmware), or any combination thereof. The following alternative examples can be implemented in which some of the steps are performed in a different order than described, or not performed at all. In some cases, the steps may include additional features not mentioned below, or more steps may be added.

[0128] At 305, the base station 105-b may identify (e.g., configure, determine) an interference measurement resource set, a sensing resource set, or both. In some aspects, the sensing resource set may include a set of time and frequency resources that the first UE 115-c is to use to transmit sensing signals associated with one or more sensing applications. Similarly, the interference measurement resource set may include a set of time resources and a set of frequency resources associated with determining interference attributable to the sensing signals transmitted by the first UE 115-c. The interference measurement resource set may be associated with a signal (e.g., a sensing signal, an uplink signal, a reference signal, a sidelink signal) transmitted by the first UE 115-c. In this regard, the interference measurement signal set may be used by the second UE 115-d to measure signals received from the first UE 115-c. For example, the interference measurement resource set may be associated with a sensing resource set that the first UE 115-c is to use for transmission of the sensing signal.

[0129] At 310, the base station 105-b may send a configuration message to the first UE 115-c, wherein the configuration message includes an indication of a sensing resource set (e.g., a configuration). In this regard, the configuration message sent at 310 may indicate a time resource set and a sensing resource set associated with the sensing resource set to be used by the first UE 115-c for transmission of the sensing signal. In some aspects, the base station 105-b may send the configuration message at 310 based on identifying (e.g., configuring) the sensing resource set at 305.

[0130] In some aspects, the base station 105-b may additionally identify that a first subcarrier spacing associated with the sensing resource set and / or the interference measurement resource set is greater than a second subcarrier spacing associated with the activated BWP of the second UE 115-d. In this case, the configuration message sent to the first UE 115-c at 310 may include a sensing signal adjustment such that less than all of the codewords configured for the sensing signal are used for transmission of the sensing signal. In addition, the configuration message sent to the first UE 115-c at 310 may include a subcarrier spacing adjustment such that the first subcarrier spacing is updated to be equal to the second subcarrier spacing. In some aspects, the base station 105-b may configure the sensing resource set such that the starting position and number of codewords in the sensing signal are not a multiple of the first subcarrier spacing divided by the second subcarrier spacing.

[0131] At 315, the base station 105-b may send a configuration message to the second UE 115-d, wherein the configuration message includes an indication (e.g., a configuration) of an interference measurement resource set. The interference measurement resource set may be associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. In this regard, the configuration message sent at 315 may indicate a time resource set and a sensing resource set associated with the sensing resource set to be used by the first UE 115-c for transmission of the sensing signal. In some aspects, the base station 105-b may send the configuration message at 315 based on identifying (e.g., configuring) the interference measurement resource set at 305.

[0132] In some aspects, the configuration message sent at 315 from the base station 105-b to the second UE 115-d may include information indicating that the interference measurement resource set includes the entire receive bandwidth associated with the second UE 115-d. In this regard, the configuration message sent at 315 may include an indication that the second UE 115-d is to use the entire receive bandwidth associated with the second UE 115-d to perform measurements associated with the sensing signals transmitted by the first UE 115-c. Additionally or alternatively, the configuration message sent at 315 from the base station 105-b to the second UE 115-d may include an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring interference associated with the sensing signals transmitted by the first UE 115-c.

[0133] For example, the configuration message sent at 315 may include an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters (e.g., RSSI) of a sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. As another example, the configuration message sent at 315 may include an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with a reference signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c.

[0134] In some aspects, when the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) at least partially overlaps with a set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-d, the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) may have a lower priority than the set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-d. For example, in a scenario where the set of measurement interference resources includes CLI measurement resources for measuring interference associated with a sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, the set of CLI measurement resources may have a lower priority than a set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-d that at least partially overlaps with the set of CLI measurement resources. In some aspects, a configuration message indicating relative priorities between the sets of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) may be indicated in the configuration message sent at 315.

[0135] At 320, the first UE 115-c may identify a set of sensing resources to be used for transmission of a sensing signal. In some aspects, the first UE 115-c may identify the set of sensing resources at 320 based on the configuration message received at 310. Additionally or alternatively, the first UE 115-c may determine on its own the set of sensing signal resources associated with the sensing signal for the sensing application. For example, in some cases, the first UE 115-c may be pre-configured with a set of sensing resources, or may select a set of sensing resources without configuration from the base station 105-b. In this case, the first UE 115-c may send an uplink message to the base station (e.g., the uplink message sent at 330), where the uplink message indicates the set of sensing resources to be used for transmission of the sensing signal. In this example, the base station 105-b may identify the set of sensing resources to be used for transmission of the sensing signal based on the uplink message received at 330.

[0136] At 325, the second UE 115-d may identify an interference measurement resource set associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. In some aspects, the second UE 115-d may identify the sensing resource set at 325 based on the configuration message received at 315. In some aspects, the second UE 115-d may determine that the interference measurement resource set is associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, the reference signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, or both. For example, based on the configuration message received at 315, the second UE 115-d may determine that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters (e.g., RSSI) associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. As another example, based on the configuration message received at 315, the second UE 115-d may determine that the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with the reference signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c.

[0137] In some aspects, the second UE 115-d may determine a relative priority of an interference measurement resource set relative to other resource sets used by the second UE 115-d. For example, when the interference measurement resource set at least partially overlaps with a downlink resource set used by the second UE 115-d, the second UE 115-d may determine that the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) has a lower priority than the downlink resource set. In this example, as will be discussed in greater detail herein, when the interference measurement resource set at least partially overlaps with a downlink resource set, the second UE 115-d may determine to avoid performing measurements using the interference measurement resource set.

[0138] In some aspects, the second UE 115-d may additionally determine that a first subcarrier spacing associated with the sensing resource set and / or the interference measurement resource set is greater than a subcarrier spacing associated with an activated BWP of the second UE 115-d. In this case, the second UE 115-d may determine that less than all of the symbols configured for the sensing signal were used for transmission of the sensing signal. Additionally or alternatively, the second UE 115-d may determine that a starting position and a number of symbols in the sensing signal are not a multiple of the first subcarrier spacing divided by the second subcarrier spacing.

[0139] At 335, the second UE 115-d may receive one or more signals from the first UE 115-c. In some aspects, the signals received by the second UE 115-d at 335 may be associated with the interference measurement signal set determined at 325. In this regard, the one or more signals received from the first UE 115-c may be received within an interference measurement resource set (e.g., within a time resource set and a frequency resource set associated with the interference measurement resource set). The one or more signals received from the first UE 115-c may include sensing signals, reference signals, sidelink signals, or any combination thereof. For example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring interference and / or RSSI indicators associated with sensing signals transmitted by the first UE 115-c, the one or more signals received at 335 may include sensing signals. As another example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with reference signals transmitted by the first UE 115-c, the one or more signals received at 335 may include reference signals.

[0140] At 340, the second UE 115-d may perform one or more measurements on one or more signals received from the first UE 115-c. The one or more measurements may include, but are not limited to, RSSI measurements, RSRP measurements, RSRQ measurements, SNR measurements, SINR measurements, or any combination thereof. In some aspects, the second UE 115-d may perform the one or more measurements at 340 based on receiving the configuration message at 315, identifying the interference measurement resource set at 325, or both. In some cases, the second UE 115-d may generate a measurement report based on the one or more measurements.

[0141] For example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring an RSSI indicator associated with a sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, the second UE 115-d may perform one or more measurements to determine the RSSI indicator associated with the sensing signal. As another example, where the interference measurement resource set includes a CLI measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with a reference signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, the second UE 115-d may perform one or more measurements to determine one or more parameters associated with the reference signal (e.g., RSSI, RSRP, RSRQ, SNR, SINR).

[0142] As previously noted herein, a set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) may have a lower priority than other sets of resources (e.g., downlink resource sets) used by the second UE 115-d. Specifically, the set of interference measurement resources may have a lower priority than a set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-d that at least partially overlaps with the set of interference measurement resources. For example, the second UE 115-d may determine that the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) at least partially overlaps with the set of downlink resources used by the second UE 115-d. The set of interference measurement resources may overlap with the set of downlink resources in the time domain, the frequency domain, or both. In this example, the second UE 115-d may avoid performing measurements using the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) based on determining that the set of interference measurement resources (e.g., CLI measurement resources) at least partially overlaps with the set of downlink resources. In addition, the second UE 115-d can use the downlink resource set to receive one or more downlink messages from the base station 105-b based on determining that the interference measurement resource (e.g., CLI measurement resource) set at least partially overlaps with the downlink resource set, avoid performing measurements, or both.

[0143] At 345, the second UE 115-d may send one or more signals to the base station 105-b. In some cases, the second UE 115-d may send the one or more signals to the base station 105-b based on receiving the configuration message at 315, identifying the interference measurement resource at 325, receiving the signal from the first UE 115-c at 335, performing the measurement at 340, or any combination thereof. For example, in some cases, the one or more signals sent by the second UE 115-d at 340 may include a measurement report based on performing the one or more measurements. In this regard, the second UE 115-d may report various parameters associated with the sensing signals and / or reference signals received from the first UE 115-c to the base station 105-b.

[0144] At 350, the base station 105-b may determine interference at the second UE 115-d associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. In some aspects, the base station 105-b may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-d based on a sensing resource set, an interference measurement resource set, or both at 350. Additionally, the base station 105-b may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-d at 350 based on receiving an uplink message at 330, receiving an uplink signal (e.g., a measurement report) at 345, or both.

[0145] Additionally or alternatively, the base station 105-b may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-d based on the relative positions of the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d with respect to each other. Specifically, the base station 105-b may estimate the path loss between the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d based on the relative positions of the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d with respect to each other, and may determine the interference experienced by the second UE 115-d based on the estimated path loss.

[0146] For example, in some cases, the base station 105-b can determine the relative position of the second UE 115-d with respect to (e.g., relative to) the first UE 115-c. For example, in some cases, the uplink signal received from the second UE 115-d at 345 can include an indication of the position of the second UE 115-d. Similarly, the uplink signal received from the first UE 115-c (e.g., the uplink message received at 330, other uplink signal) can include an indication of the position of the first UE 115-c. In this example, the base station 105-b can determine the relative position of the second UE 115-d with respect to the first UE 115-c based on the indication of the positions of the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d. Additionally, the base station 105-b can determine the path loss between the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d based on the relative position of the second UE 115-d with respect to the first UE 115-c. At this point, the base station 105-b can determine the interference experienced at the second UE 115-d that is attributable to the sensing signal from the first UE 115-c based on the relative position of the second UE 115-d with respect to the first UE 115-c and the estimated path loss between the first UE 115-c and the second UE 115-d.

[0147] In the event that the base station 105-b determines the relative position of the second UE 115-d relative to the first UE 115-c, the base station 105-b may additionally include the relative position of the second UE 115-d in storage objects associated with various sensing applications supported by the first UE 115-c. For example, the first UE 115-c may include the relative position of the second UE 115-d in a first storage object associated with the first sensing application and in a second storage object associated with the second sensing application. The storage objects may include any storage objects known in the art, including but not limited to tables, indexes, mappings, and the like. In some aspects, the first storage object and the second storage object may each additionally include other UEs 115 and other relative positions of each of the other UEs 115 relative to the first UE 115-c. For example, the first storage object associated with the first sensing application may include a third UE 115 (not shown) and the relative position of the third UE 115 relative to the first UE 115-c.

[0148] In some aspects, the base station 105-b can be configured to estimate the range of interference and / or potential interference associated with each respective sensing application based on the stored objects associated with each respective sensing application. For example, the base station 105-b can determine, based on the first stored object associated with the first sensing application, that a UE 115 (e.g., the second UE 115-d) included in the first stored object is within the range of the sensing signal associated with the first sensing application. As another example, the base station 105-b can determine, based on the second stored object associated with the second sensing application, that a UE 115 (e.g., the second UE 115-d) included in the second stored object is within the range of the sensing signal associated with the second sensing application.

[0149] In some aspects, the base station 105-b may send a configuration message to the first UE 115-c, the second UE 115-d, or both to manage (e.g., reduce, eliminate) interference experienced by the second UE 115-d. In this regard, the base station 105-b may send a configuration message that includes an indication of parameter adjustment regarding a sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, a downlink reception performed by the second UE 115-d, or at least one of the two. Specifically, the base station 105-b may selectively adjust parameters associated with a corresponding sensing application (e.g., a first sensing application, a second sensing application) based on determining that the UE 115 included in the corresponding storage object is within range of the sensing signal associated with the corresponding sensing application.

[0150] At 355, the base station 105-b may send a configuration message to the second UE 115-d. In some aspects, the configuration message may include an indication for the second UE 115-d to selectively adjust one or more downlink reception parameters used by the second UE 115-d. For example, the configuration message may include an indication for the second UE 115-d to selectively adjust a set of time resources and / or a set of frequency resources used for downlink reception. In this scenario, the base station 105-b may cause the second UE 115-d to adjust the downlink reception parameters so as to eliminate or reduce interference at the second UE 115-d attributable to the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. For example, the base station 105-b may cause the second UE 115-d to adjust the one or more downlink reception parameters so that the downlink reception resource set does not overlap with the sensing resource set used by the first UE 115-c for transmission of the sensing signal.

[0151] At 360, the base station 105-b may send a configuration message to the first UE 115-c. In some aspects, the configuration message may include an indication for the first UE 115-c to selectively adjust one or more parameters associated with a sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c. The parameters associated with the sensing signal that may be selectively adjusted may include, but are not limited to, a set of time resources used for transmission of the sensing signal, a set of frequency resources used for transmission of the sensing signal, a transmit power associated with the sensing signal, a beam direction associated with the sensing signal, or any combination thereof. For example, the configuration message may include an indication for the first UE 115-c to selectively reduce the transmit power at which the sensing signal is transmitted. At this point, the base station 105-b may cause the first UE 115-c to adjust the parameters associated with the sensing signal so as to eliminate or reduce interference at the second UE 115-d that is attributable to the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c.

[0152] As another example, as previously noted herein, base station 105-b may determine, based on a first stored object associated with the first sensing application, that a UE 115 (e.g., second UE 115-d) included in the first stored object is within range of a sensing signal associated with the first sensing application. In this example, the configuration message sent at 360 may include an indication for first UE 115-c to selectively adjust a first set of sensing signal parameters associated with the first sensing application based on determining that UE 115 included in the first stored object is within range of the sensing signal associated with the first sensing application.

[0153] The techniques described herein may enable a second UE 115-d and / or a base station 105-b of a wireless communication system (e.g., wireless communication system 100 or 200) to estimate interference attributable to a sensing signal transmitted by a first UE 115-c. Furthermore, the techniques described herein may enable the base station 105-b to adjust parameters associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the first UE 115-c, parameters associated with signal reception used by the second UE 115-d, or both, to reduce interference attributable to the sensing signal. Accordingly, the techniques described herein may facilitate the use of sensing applications while reducing interference attributable to the sensing applications, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of wireless communications within a wireless communication system (e.g., wireless communication system 100 or 200).

[0154] Figure 4 A block diagram 400 of a device 405 supporting interference measurement of a sensing signal according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. The device 405 can be an example of aspects of the UE 115 as described herein. The device 405 can include a receiver 410, a communication manager 415, and a transmitter 420. The device 405 can also include a processor. Each of these components can communicate with each other (e.g., via one or more buses).

[0155] The receiver 410 may receive information such as packets, user data, or control information associated with various information channels (e.g., control channels, data channels, and information about interference measurements of sensing signals, etc.). The information may be passed to other components of the device 405. The receiver 410 may be a reference Figure 7 Examples of aspects of the transceiver 720 are described. The receiver 410 may use a single antenna or a collection of antennas.

[0156] The communication manager 415 may receive, from the base station, a first configuration message indicating an interference measurement resource set associated with a sensing resource set to be used by the second UE for transmission of a sensing signal, perform one or more measurements on one or more signals received from the second UE within the interference measurement resource set, and send a measurement report to the base station based on the one or more measurements. The communication manager 415 may be an example of aspects of the communication manager 710 described herein.

[0157] The actions performed by the communication manager 415 as described herein may be implemented to achieve one or more potential benefits. For example, the signaling performed by the victim UE 115 may enable the base station 105 to determine interference experienced by the victim UE 115 that is attributable to the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE 115. In this regard, the signaling performed by the victim UE 115 may enable the base station 105 to adjust parameters of the sensing UE 115 and / or the victim UE 115 to reduce the interference attributable to the sensing signal. Accordingly, implementing improved sensing signal interference management may facilitate the use of sensing applications while reducing the interference attributable to the sensing applications, which may lead to more efficient and reliable wireless communications.

[0158] By implementing improved sensing signal interference management, the processor of the victim UE 115 (e.g., the processor controlling the receiver 410, the communication manager 415, the transmitter 420, etc.) can reduce processing resources used for wireless communications. For example, by improving sensing signal interference management, interference attributable to the sensing signal can be reduced, thereby reducing the number of retransmissions that must be performed to transmit data within the wireless communication system. Reducing such interference and avoiding such retransmissions can correspondingly reduce the number of times the processor must increase processing power and turn on processing units to handle uplink transmissions and downlink receptions.

[0159] The communication manager 415 or its subcomponents may be implemented in hardware, in code executed by a processor (e.g., software or firmware), or any combination thereof. If implemented in code executed by a processor, the functions of the communication manager 415 or its subcomponents may be performed by a general-purpose processor, a digital signal processor (DSP), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) or other programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components, or any combination thereof designed to perform the functions described in this disclosure.

[0160] The communication manager 415 or its subcomponents can be physically located in a variety of locations, including being distributed so that various portions of functionality are implemented by one or more physical components at different physical locations. In some examples, the communication manager 415 or its subcomponents can be separate and distinct components according to aspects of the present disclosure. In some examples, the communication manager 415 or its subcomponents can be combined with one or more other hardware components, including but not limited to input / output (I / O) components, transceivers, network servers, another computing device, one or more other components described herein, or combinations thereof according to aspects of the present disclosure.

[0161] Transmitter 420 can transmit signals generated by other components of device 405. In some examples, transmitter 420 can be co-located with receiver 410 in a transceiver module. For example, transmitter 420 can be a reference Figure 7 Examples of aspects of the depicted transceiver 720. The transmitter 420 may utilize a single antenna or a collection of antennas.

The device 505 may also include a processor. Each of these components may communicate with each other (e.g., via one or more buses).

[0163] The receiver 510 may receive information such as packets, user data, or control information associated with various information channels (e.g., control channels, data channels, and information about interference measurements of sensing signals, etc.). The information may be passed to other components of the device 505. The receiver 510 may be a reference Figure 7 Examples of aspects of the transceiver 720 are described. The receiver 510 may utilize a single antenna or a collection of antennas.

[0164] Communications manager 515 may be an example of aspects of communications manager 415 as described herein. Communications manager 515 may include configuration message reception manager 520, signal measurement manager 525, and measurement report transmission manager 530. Communications manager 515 may be an example of aspects of communications manager 710 as described herein.

[0165] The configuration message reception manager 520 may receive, from the base station, a first configuration message indicating an interference measurement resource set associated with a sensing resource set to be used by the second UE for transmission of a sensing signal.

[0166] The signal measurement manager 525 may perform one or more measurements on one or more signals received from the second UE within the interference measurement resource set.

[0167] The measurement report transmission manager 530 may transmit a measurement report to a base station based on one or more measurements.

[0168] Transmitter 535 can transmit signals generated by other components of device 505. In some examples, transmitter 535 can be co-located with receiver 510 in a transceiver module. For example, transmitter 535 can be a reference Figure 7 Examples of aspects of the transceiver 720 are described. The transmitter 535 may utilize a single antenna or a collection of antennas.

[0169] Figure 6 A block diagram 600 of a communication manager 605 supporting interference measurement of sensing signals according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. The communication manager 605 can be an example of aspects of the communication manager 415, the communication manager 515, or the communication manager 710 described herein. The communication manager 605 can include a configuration message reception manager 610, a signal measurement manager 615, a measurement report transmission manager 620, a CLI resource manager 625, a downlink reception manager 630, a sensing signal reception manager 635, a reference signal reception manager 640, and a subcarrier spacing manager 645. Each of these components can communicate with each other directly or indirectly (e.g., via one or more buses).

[0170] The configuration message reception manager 610 may receive, from the base station, a first configuration message indicating an interference measurement resource set associated with a sensing resource set to be used by the second UE for transmission of a sensing signal. In some examples, the configuration message reception manager 610 may receive, from the base station and based on the transmission of the measurement report, a second configuration message indicating that the first UE is to selectively adjust one or more downlink reception parameters used by the first UE.

[0171] In some examples, the configuration message reception manager 610 may receive, from a base station via a first configuration message, an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a cross-link interference measurement resource set for measuring interference associated with a sensing signal sent by a second UE. In some examples, the configuration message reception manager 610 may receive, from a base station via a first configuration message, an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a cross-link interference measurement resource set for measuring a received signal strength indicator of a sensing signal sent by a second UE. In some examples, the configuration message reception manager 610 may receive, from a base station via a first configuration message, an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a cross-link interference measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with a reference signal sent by a first UE. In some examples, the configuration message reception manager 610 may receive, from a base station, information indicating that the interference measurement resource set includes the entire reception bandwidth associated with the first UE. In some cases, the interference measurement resource set includes a time resource set and a frequency resource set.

[0172] The signal measurement manager 615 may perform one or more measurements on one or more signals received from the second UE within the interference measurement resource set. In some examples, the signal measurement manager 615 may avoid performing measurements using the cross-link interference measurement resource set based on determining that the cross-link interference measurement resource at least partially overlaps with the downlink resource set.

[0173] The measurement report transmission manager 620 may transmit a measurement report to a base station based on one or more measurements.

[0174] The CLI resource manager 625 may determine that the cross-link interference measurement resource set at least partially overlaps with the downlink resource set used by the first UE. In some cases, the cross-link interference measurement resource set used to measure interference associated with the sensing signal transmitted by the second UE has a lower priority than the downlink resource set used by the first UE that at least partially overlaps with the cross-link interference measurement resource set.

[0175] The downlink reception manager 630 may receive one or more downlink messages using the downlink resource set based on determining that the cross-link interference measurement resources at least partially overlap with the downlink resource set.

[0176] The sensing signal reception manager 635 may receive a sensing signal transmitted by the second UE, wherein one or more measurements are performed on the sensing signal based on an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a cross-link interference measurement resource set for measuring a received signal strength indicator of the sensing signal.

[0177] The reference signal reception manager 640 may receive a reference signal sent by the second UE, wherein one or more measurements are performed on the reference signal based on an indication that the interference measurement resource set includes a cross-link interference measurement resource set for measuring one or more parameters associated with the reference signal.

[0178] The subcarrier spacing manager 645 can identify that a first subcarrier spacing associated with the sensing resource set is greater than a second subcarrier spacing associated with the activation bandwidth portion of the second UE. In some examples, the subcarrier spacing manager 645 can identify that less than all of the symbols configured for the sensing signal are used for transmission of the sensing signal. In some examples, the subcarrier spacing manager 645 can identify that a starting position and a number of symbols in the sensing signal are not a multiple of the first subcarrier spacing divided by the second subcarrier spacing.

[0179] Figure 7 A diagram of a system 700 including a device 705 supporting interference measurement of sensing signals according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown.

The device 705 can include components for two-way voice and data communications, including components for sending and receiving communications, including a communication manager 710, an I / O controller 715, a transceiver 720, an antenna 725, a memory 730, and a processor 740. These components can communicate electronically via one or more buses (e.g., bus 745).

[0180] The communication manager 710 can receive a first configuration message from the base station indicating an interference measurement resource set associated with a sensing resource set to be used by the second UE for sending a sensing signal, perform one or more measurements on one or more signals received from the second UE within the interference measurement resource set, and send a measurement report to the base station based on the one or more measurements.

[0181] I / O controller 715 can manage input and output signals for device 705. I / O controller 715 can also manage peripheral devices that are not integrated into device 705. In some cases, I / O controller 715 can represent a physical connection or port to an external peripheral device. In some cases, I / O controller 715 can utilize, for example, MS- MS- OS / or another known operating system. In other cases, I / O controller 715 may represent or interact with a modem, keyboard, mouse, touch screen, or similar device. In some cases, I / O controller 715 may be implemented as part of a processor. In some cases, a user may interact with device 705 via I / O controller 715 or via hardware components controlled by I / O controller 715.

[0182] The transceiver 720 can communicate bidirectionally via one or more antennas, wired or wireless links as described above. For example, the transceiver 720 can represent a wireless transceiver and can communicate bidirectionally with another wireless transceiver. The transceiver 720 can also include a modem to modulate packets and provide the modulated packets to the antenna for transmission, and demodulate packets received from the antenna.

In some cases, the processor 740 may be configured to operate the memory array using a memory controller. In other cases, the memory controller may be integrated into the processor 740. The processor 740 may be configured to execute computer-readable instructions stored in a memory (e.g., memory 730) to cause the device 705 to perform various functions (e.g., functions or tasks that support interference management of sensing signals).

[0186] The code 735 may include instructions for implementing aspects of the present disclosure, including instructions for supporting wireless communications. The code 735 may be stored in a non-transitory computer-readable medium such as system memory or other types of memory. In some cases, the code 735 may not be directly executable by the processor 740, but may cause a computer (e.g., when compiled and executed) to perform the functions described herein.

[0187] Figure 8 A block diagram 800 of a device 805 supporting interference measurement of a sensing signal according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. The device 805 can be an example of aspects of the base station 105 as described herein. The device 805 can include a receiver 810, a communication manager 815, and a transmitter 820. The device 805 can also include a processor. Each of these components can communicate with each other (e.g., via one or more buses).

The communication manager 815 may be an example of aspects of the communication manager 1110 described herein.

[0190] The actions performed by the communication manager 815 as described herein may be implemented to achieve one or more potential benefits. For example, the signaling performed by the victim UE 115 and the base station 105 may enable the base station 105 to determine interference experienced by the victim UE 115 that is attributable to the sensing signal transmitted by the sensing UE 115. The communication manager 815 may enable the base station 105 to adjust parameters of the sensing UE 115 and / or the victim UE 115 to reduce the interference attributable to the sensing signal. Accordingly, implementing improved sensing signal interference management may facilitate the use of sensing applications while reducing the interference attributable to the sensing applications, which may lead to more efficient and reliable wireless communications.

[0191] By implementing improved sensing signal interference management, a processor of base station 105 (e.g., a processor controlling receiver 810, communication manager 815, transmitter 820, etc.) can reduce processing resources used for wireless communications. For example, by improving sensing signal interference management, interference attributable to sensing signals can be reduced, thereby reducing the amount of retransmissions that must be performed to transmit data within the wireless communication system.
