Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).

[0168] The terminal can sense mobile communication signals (such as air interface signals) based on the 3GPP standard and obtain 3GPP sensing data (referred to as first-category sensing data).

[0169] In some embodiments, the mobile communication signal may be sent by a terminal or other communication devices (such as a base station or other terminals).

[0170] The terminal can perform perception based on non-mobile communication signals (such as visual signals, radar signals, etc.) to obtain non-3GPP perception data (called second-type perception data).

[0171] In some embodiments, the non-mobile communication signal may be sent by a non-3GP sensor within the terminal, and the non-mobile communication signal may be sent by a non-3GP sensor outside the terminal.

[0172] In some embodiments, the perception data may be raw data perceived by the terminal. The raw data is used to determine perception results (e.g., distance to a perceived target, motion state, etc.). Perception results determined based on 3GPP perception data and non-3GPP perception data can be integrated to provide more accurate and detailed perception results.

[0173] For example, the perception data may be at least one of the following items determined by the terminal: signal sending time, signal receiving time, and signal characteristic parameters.

[0174] As shown in FIG1b , for processing 3GPP perception data and non-3GPP perception data, the terminal's specific processing method includes the following steps:

[0175] Step 1100: The terminal initiates a perception application, where the perception data includes 3GPP perception data generated by 3GPP sensors (terminal side) and non-3GPP perception data generated by non-3GP sensors (such as radar, camera and other existing perception devices).

[0176] Step 1101a: The terminal collects non-3GPP perception data generated by the non-3GPP perception device.

[0177] Step 1102a: The terminal sends the non-3GPP perception data to a specific server (perception server) for processing.

[0178] Step 1103a: The perception server processes the non-3GPP perception data.

[0179] Step 1104a: The perception server returns the processed perception result (non-3GPP perception result) to the terminal.

[0180] Step 1101b: The terminal collects 3GPP perception data.

[0181] Step 1102b: The terminal sends the 3GPP sensing data to a cellular network (such as a 5G network) for processing.

[0182] Step 1103b: The core network of the cellular network (such as the 5G core network) processes the 3GPP perception data.

[0183] Step 1104b: The network returns the processing result (3GPP perception result).

[0184] Step 1105: The terminal integrates the 3GPP perception result and the non-3GPP perception result through the application layer.

[0185] Currently, non-3GPP sensing data from traditional sensing devices and sensing data from 3GPP sensing devices (such as terminals) are sent separately to two different networks for processing: 3GPP sensing data is sent to the 5G network, while non-3GPP sensing data needs to be sent to a specific sensing server. 3GPP and non-3GPP sensing data are sent at different times, and the performance of the different systems processing the sensing data varies. Therefore, there is a delay between the generation of the sensing result and its reception by the terminal. This can lead to deviations when the terminal integrates the two pieces of data (the two sensing results). This can lead to low performance indicators or accuracy of the final fused data, affecting the user experience.

[0186] In some embodiments, the perception server may be a device other than the core network device for determining the non-3GPP perception result. The perception server and the core network device may be connected via a wired network and / or a wireless network.

[0246] In some embodiments, the perception function may select a perception server for determining a second perception result based on the first information.

[0247] In some embodiments, the core network device sends the second type of perception data to a perception server determined based on the first information.

[0248] Step S2104: The perception server determines the second perception result.

[0249] In some embodiments, the perception server determines a second perception result based on the second type of perception data.

[0334] In some embodiments, the core network device determines a second perception result based on the second type of perception data.

[0335] In some embodiments, the second type of perception data may be raw data determined by a perception device of the terminal sensing a non-mobile communication signal.

[0336] Optionally, the second category of perception data includes at least one of the following: non-mobile communication signal sending time, non-mobile communication signal receiving time, and non-mobile communication signal characteristic parameters.

[0337] Exemplarily, the core network device may determine a second perception result based on the second type of perception data, such as the distance, orientation, motion status, etc. of the perception target.

[0338] Exemplarily, the second type of perception data may be the round-trip flight time of a non-mobile communication signal perceived by the perception device from the terminal to the perception target, and the core network device may determine the distance from the terminal to the perception target based on the round-trip flight time.

[0339] Step S2204: The core network device determines the first perception result.

[0340] In some embodiments, the first type of perception data may be original data determined by the terminal's perception of a 3GPP standard wireless signal.

[0341] Optionally, the first category of perception data includes at least one of the following: 3GPP standard wireless signal sending time, 3GPP standard wireless signal receiving time, and 3GPP standard wireless signal characteristic parameters.

[0342] The core network device can determine the first perception result based on the first type of perception data, such as the distance, direction, motion status, etc. of the perception target.

[0343] Exemplarily, the first type of perception data may be the round-trip flight time of a 3GPP standard wireless signal from the terminal to the perception target perceived by the perception device, and the perception server may determine the distance from the terminal to the perception target based on the round-trip flight time.

[0344] In some embodiments, the order of executing step 2203 and executing step 2204 is not limited here, and step 2203 can be executed first or step 2204 can be executed first.

[0345] Step S2205: The core network device determines the third perception result.

[0346] In some embodiments, the core network device determines a third perception result based on the first perception result and the second perception result.

[0347] In some embodiments, the first perception result and the second perception result may be the same type of perception result. For example, the first perception result and the second perception result may both be the distance between the terminal and the perception target. The third perception result determined by combining the first perception result and the second perception result may improve the accuracy and reliability of the perception result.

[0348] Optionally, the third perception result can be determined by combining the first perception result and the second perception result by one of averaging and weighted averaging.

[0349] In some embodiments, the first perception result and the second perception result may be different types of perception results. For example, the first perception result may be the distance between the terminal and the perception target. The second perception result may be the orientation of the terminal and the perception target. The third perception result determined may be the relative positional relationship between the terminal and the perception target. Combining the first and second perception results to determine the third perception result may increase the information content of the perception result.

[0350] In some embodiments, the first and second perception results can be determined based on the first and second types of perception data determined by the terminal during a single perception session, rather than based on different perception times. This can reduce the deviation in integrating the first and second perception results, improve the performance indicators or accuracy of the fused data, and enhance the user experience.

[0351] Step S2206: The core network device sends the third perception result.

[0352] In some embodiments, the core network device sends the third perception result to the terminal.

[0354] In some embodiments, the term "send" can be interchangeable with terms such as "transmit", "report", and "transmit".

[0529] The following provides a specific example in combination with any of the above embodiments:

[0530] This embodiment is based on the following scenario:

[0531] 3GPP perception data and non-3GPP perception data are integrated in real time on the network side;

[0532] Non-3GPP perception data is processed by the perception server.

[0533] The perception data processing method, as shown in FIG6 , specifically includes:

[0534] Step 6101: The terminal application layer initiates a perception service, where the perception service needs to call non-3GPP sensors (such as radar, camera, etc.) and 3GPP sensors (such as terminals) to provide perception data.

[0535] Step 6102: The terminal collects non-3GPP perception data generated by the non-3GPP perception device; at the same time, the terminal collects 3GPP perception data generated by itself.

[0536] Step 6103: The terminal initiates a perception service request to the network, carrying: non-3GPP / 3GPP perception device information, such as device identification and manufacturer; or perception server identification for perception data processing; data format information, etc. This perception device information is used to assist the SF in determining the perception server for processing non-3GPP perception data, and to assist the SF in fusing 3GPP and non-3GPP processing results.

[0537] Step 6104: The Sensing Function (SF) determines whether to send the non-3GPP sensing data to a specific server for processing based on the non-3GPP sensing device information in the terminal request message and / or whether the SF has the ability to process the non-3GPP sensing data.

[0538] Step 6105: The SF establishes a connection with the perception server. The SF specifies a perception server according to the perception data processing server identifier sent by the terminal or the non-3GPP perception data format information SF.

[0539] Step 6106: SF returns a service request response.

[0540] Step 6107: The terminal sends the 3GPP perception data / non-3GPP perception data to the SF through the access network equipment (NG-RAN) through the user plane connection.

[0541] Step 6108: The SF sends the non-3GPP perception data to a specific perception server for processing.

[0542] Step 6109: The perception server returns the processing result to SF.

[0543] Step 6110: SF further integrates the 3GPP perception results with the non-3GPP perception results to obtain a final result.

[0544] Step 6111: SF sends the final processed result to the terminal.
