Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the cross-technical field of millimeter wave beam management and sensing technology, and in particular to a multi-modal multi-user positioning composition and beam management method, device and storage medium. Background Art
[0002] Communication and perception integration is developing into a key technology for millimeter wave wireless communications. Among them, simultaneous positioning and mapping technology has become one of the key frameworks of millimeter wave communication systems. The core function of simultaneous positioning and mapping technology is to simultaneously locate users and create radio maps, which usually encapsulate key environmental features describing millimeter wave multipath propagation. The implementation schemes of simultaneous positioning and mapping technology range from geometry-based methods to random finite set methods and belief propagation algorithms. Despite its potential, simultaneous positioning and mapping technology is currently usually deployed at the user end, which may lead to frequent updates of radio maps due to the mobility of millimeter wave devices and limited sensing capabilities of terminals.
[0003] To address the above challenges, the concept of multi-user simultaneous localization mapping has become an important research direction. The method revolves around three key steps: first, the client performs simultaneous localization mapping locally and then uploads its estimated wireless environment features to the base station or the cloud; next, the base station or the cloud fuses these line environment feature estimates to create a global radio map; finally, the user downloads the global radio map to improve their local simultaneous localization mapping process. The dynamic nature of the user means that they will encounter a variety of environmental features, resulting in only partial overlap of local radio maps. Coupled with the changes in user access time and sensing capabilities, these conditions bring significant design challenges to the multi-user simultaneous localization mapping system.
[0004] Millimeter wave communication systems utilize directional transmissions through beamforming, a technique that, while effective, requires significant beam management overhead. Recent research has investigated using historical beam measurements, user-side motion state, and environmental characteristics to simplify beam management to reduce overhead. Multimodal communication and perception integrated systems, equipped with a variety of sensors, have introduced innovative strategies for beam tracking, which are expected to improve accuracy by leveraging additional sensor data. Notably, stereo cameras are considered to be good at capturing user-side motion and are often used to assist in direct path tracking.
[0005] However, there are few studies on the fusion design of camera perception results and multi-user simultaneous localization and composition technology. At the same time, few studies consider how to use the global radio map of multi-user simultaneous localization and composition technology and user position estimation to form multi-user beam management. Summary of the invention

[0009] The base station or the cloud performs feature fusion based on the estimated environmental features of each target user to construct a global radio map, and generates radio map prior information of each target user based on the initial self-position estimate of each target user and the estimated environmental features fed back by the user;
[0010] The base station or the cloud obtains the perception results of the fixed binocular camera, and based on the perception results, fuses the initial self-position estimates of the target users to obtain the final user position estimate;
[0011] The base station or the cloud generates a multi-user beam management angle range based on the global radio map and the end user position estimate;
[0012] Each target user downloads radio map prior information from the base station or the cloud, updates the current estimate of its own position and the current environmental characteristics, and simultaneously downloads the beam management angle range to perform beam management.
[0013] In another aspect of the present application, a multi-modal multi-user positioning composition and beam management method and device is also proposed, including:

[0020] In another aspect of the present application, an electronic device is proposed, comprising a memory and a processor, wherein a computer program is stored in the memory, and the processor is configured to run the computer program to execute the steps in any one of the above method embodiments.
