Summary of the Invention

[0004] One of the purposes of the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a communication method that can obtain sensing information.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a communication method, including: performing a measurement sensing operation based on the acquired measurement sensing signal to obtain sensing information; and sending the sensing information.

[0006] The sensing receiving device performs a measurement sensing operation based on the acquired measurement sensing signal to obtain sensing information. The sensing receiving device sends the obtained sensing information. Thus, the sensing sending device can obtain the sensing information, thereby realizing the acquisition of the sensing information.

[0007] Optionally, the sensing information includes: a measurement result obtained by performing a measurement sensing operation on the target object, and / or a sensing result obtained based on the measurement result; wherein the sensing result includes at least one of the following: distance information of the target object, Doppler information of the target object, horizontal angle information of the target object, and elevation angle information of the target object.

[0008] The sensing receiving device can send the measurement result or the sensing result corresponding to the measurement result. For some sensing receiving devices with weak processing capabilities or insufficient remaining computing power at present, they can also perform measurement sensing operations, thereby improving the performance of the communication system.

[0009] Optionally, the sensing receiving device may also switch the currently executed first sensing mode to a second sensing mode; the first sensing mode includes a classical sensing mode, and the second sensing mode includes a sensing mode based on artificial intelligence model prediction; alternatively, the first sensing mode includes the sensing mode based on artificial intelligence model prediction, and the second sensing mode includes the classical sensing mode; the classical sensing mode includes performing a measurement sensing operation on the target object based on measurement parameters.

[0012] After obtaining the first indication information, the sensing receiving device can switch the first sensing mode to the second sensing mode. Thus, the sensing receiving device does not need to participate in the decision-making of the sensing mode switch. When the sensing sending device corresponding to the sensing receiving device is a network device or a sensing service unit, by the network device or the sensing service unit making a decision on whether the sensing receiving device needs to switch the sensing mode, it can make a decision on whether the sensing receiving device needs to switch the sensing mode based on the sensing information of the sensing receiving device.

[0014] When the sensing receiving device detects that the sensing information meets the switching trigger condition, it sends the second indication information. When the network device or the sensing service unit obtains the second indication information, it can determine that the sensing information meets the switching trigger condition. Thus, the network device or the sensing service unit can accurately determine whether to switch the sensing mode of the sensing receiving device.

[0015] Optionally, the sensing receiving device may switch the first sensing mode to the second sensing mode in response to meeting the switching trigger condition.

[0016] When the sensing receiving device determines that the sensing information meets the switching trigger condition, it can also autonomously decide to switch the sensing mode without the indication of the network device or the sensing service unit, which can reduce the downlink overhead.

[0017] Optionally, the sensing receiving device may also obtain the reception information of the new sensing beam. Alternatively, the sensing receiving device may also obtain third indication information, and the third indication information may indicate the sensing receiving device to activate or deactivate the sensing function.

[0018] In a second aspect, the present invention also provides another communication method, including: sending a measurement sensing signal; obtaining sensing information.

[0019] The sensing transmitting device may send a measurement sensing signal to the sensing receiving device, obtain the sensing information sent by the sensing receiving device, and further obtain the relevant information of the target object, so as to perform targeted scheduling on the target object.

[0020] Optionally, the sensing transmitting device may also send first indication information, and the first indication information indicates the sensing receiving device to switch the currently executed first sensing mode to a second sensing mode; the first sensing mode includes a classical sensing mode, and the second sensing mode includes a sensing mode based on artificial intelligence model prediction; or, the first sensing mode includes the sensing mode based on artificial intelligence model prediction, and the second sensing mode includes the classical sensing mode; the classical sensing mode includes performing a measurement sensing operation on the target object based on measurement parameters.

[0022] Optionally, the sensing transmitting device may also send the reception information of the new sensing beam; or, the sensing transmitting device may also obtain the transmission information of the new sensing beam; or, the sensing transmitting device may also send third indication information, and the third indication information indicates the sensing receiving device to activate or deactivate the sensing function.

Among them, the chip system can include a chip and can also include other discrete devices.

[0033] In the embodiments of the present application, a network device is a device that provides wireless communication functions for terminal devices, and can also be referred to as a radio access network (RAN) device, or an access network element, an access network device, etc. Among them, the network device can support at least one wireless communication technology, such as LTE, NR, etc. By way of example, the network device includes, but is not limited to: the next-generation base station (generation node B, gNB) in 5G, evolved node B (eNB), radio network controller (RNC), node B (NB), base station controller (BSC), base transceiver station (BTS), home base station (for example, home evolved node B, or home node B, HNB), baseband unit (BBU), transmitting and receiving point (TRP), transmitting point (TP), mobile switching center, etc. The network device can also be a wireless controller, a centralized unit (CU), and / or a distributed unit (DU) in a cloud radio access network (CRAN) scenario, or the network device can be a relay station, an access point, a vehicle-mounted device, a terminal device, a wearable device, and a network device in future mobile communications or a network device in a future evolved PLMN, etc. In some embodiments, the network device can also be a device with the function of providing wireless communication for terminal devices, such as a chip system. By way of example, the chip system can include a chip and can also include other discrete devices.

[0034] In some embodiments, the network device can also communicate with an Internet Protocol (IP) network, such as the Internet, a private IP network, or other data networks, etc.

[0035] The embodiments of the present invention provide a communication method. Refer to Figure 1 , and the following will be described in detail through specific steps.

[0036] In a specific implementation, the communication method provided in the following steps 101 to 102 can be executed by a chip with data processing capabilities in the sensing receiving device, or by a chip module with data processing capabilities in the sensing receiving device, or by the sensing receiving device.

[0037] Step 101: Based on the acquired measurement sensing signal, perform a measurement sensing operation to obtain sensing information.

[0038] Step 102: Send the sensing information.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present invention, the sensing receiving device and the sensing initiating device can be relative. Specifically, the sensing sending device can be the device that initiates sensing, that is, the device that sends the measurement sensing signal. Correspondingly, the sensing receiving device can be the device that performs the measurement sensing operation.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present invention, the following sensing sending device and sensing receiving device can be different devices. The number of sensing sending devices can be one or more, and the number of sensing receiving devices can also be one or more.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present invention, the sensing receiving device and the sensing initiating device can be the same device. That is, a device sends a sensing signal and the same device receives the sensing signal.

[0042] In some embodiments, the sensing sending device can be a network device, or a sensing function unit, etc., and the corresponding sensing receiving device can be a terminal device (such as a UE, etc.). In other embodiments, the sensing sending device can be a terminal device, and the corresponding sensing receiving device can be a network device. In still other embodiments, the sensing sending device can be a certain terminal device, and the corresponding sensing receiving device can be one or more other terminal devices.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present invention, a measurement and sensing signal may be sent by a sensing transmitting device. The measurement and sensing signal may be a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB), or a Chanel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), or a Tracking Reference Signal (TRS), or a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), or a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), or a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), or a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), or a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), or other forms of signals or channels such as a sensing reference signal.

[0044] In a specific implementation, a sensing receiving device may receive the measurement and sensing signal. Based on the measurement and sensing signal, the sensing receiving device may perform corresponding measurement and sensing operations, and then obtain sensing information.

[0045] Specifically, the sensing receiving device may perform measurement and sensing operations on the received sensing signal to obtain sensing information corresponding to the target object. The sensing receiving device may send the sensing information to the sensing transmitting device.

[0046] In some embodiments, the target object may be an object that needs to perform measurement and sensing operations. The target objects may be distributed around the sensing receiving device. Specifically, the target objects may include dynamic obstacles such as vehicles and pedestrians, and static obstacles such as street lights.

[0047] In a specific implementation, the sensing transmitting device may indicate measurement parameters through higher layer signaling or DCI. The sensing receiving device obtains the measurement parameters, and performs corresponding measurement and sensing operations based on the measurement parameters to obtain corresponding sensing information.

[0048] Alternatively, the measurement parameters may be pre-configured in the sensing receiving device. The sensing receiving device obtains the measurement and sensing signal, and performs corresponding measurement and sensing operations based on the pre-configured measurement parameters.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present invention, the sensing information may include a sensing result obtained by performing a measurement and sensing operation on a target object based on measurement parameters. The sensing result may include at least one of the following: distance information of the target object, horizontal angle information of the target object, Doppler information of the target object, and pitch angle information of the target object.

[0050] In some embodiments, the sensing result of the target object may be relative to the sensing receiving device that performs the measurement and sensing operation. Specifically, the distance information of the target object may include the distance information between the target object and the sensing receiving device; the horizontal angle information of the target object may include the horizontal angle information of the target object relative to the sensing receiving device; the Doppler information of the target object, that is, the velocity information of the target object, may include the Doppler information of the target object relative to the sensing receiving device; the pitch angle information of the target object may also include the pitch angle information of the target object relative to the sensing receiving device.

[0051] In a specific implementation, for a sensing receiving device with strong processing capabilities or a sensing receiving device with strong remaining computing power currently, after obtaining a measurement result by performing a measurement and sensing operation on a target object, the measurement result may be processed to obtain a sensing result. The sensing receiving device may send the sensing result to the sensing sending device.

[0052] In some embodiments, the sensing receiving device may also send both the sensing result and the measurement result to the sensing sending device.

[0053] For some sensing receiving devices with weak processing capabilities, or sensing receiving devices in a busy state, or sensing receiving devices with insufficient remaining computing power currently, after obtaining a measurement result by performing a measurement and sensing operation on a target object, the measurement result is sent to the sensing sending device. The sensing sending device obtains the measurement result from the acquired sensing information, and processes the measurement result to obtain a sensing result.

[0054] In some embodiments, the measurement result may include a wireless link strength change parameter between the target object and the relative position parameter between the target object and the like. By further calculating the measurement result, the sensing result can be obtained.

[0055] That is to say, the measurement result can be regarded as intermediate processing data of the sensing result. By performing corresponding calculations on the measurement result, the sensing result can be obtained. Or rather, the sensing result is obtained from the measurement result.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, the sensing sending device may also indicate, in the measured sensing signal, which sensing results of the target object (i.e., the target sensing results of the target object) the sensing receiving device needs to obtain. Based on the measured sensing signal, the sensing receiving device obtains the above-mentioned target sensing results and sends them to the sensing sending device.

[0057] For example, the sensing sending device indicates, in the measured sensing signal, that the sensing receiving device obtains the distance information and speed information of the target object. Based on the obtained sensing measurement information, the sensing receiving device performs a measurement sensing operation on the target object to obtain the distance information and speed information of the target object (i.e., the above-mentioned target sensing results), and sends sensing information to the sensing sending device, where the sensing information includes the distance information and speed information of the target object.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present invention, an artificial intelligence model for sensing information prediction may be deployed in the sensing receiving device and / or the sensing sending device. When the above-mentioned artificial intelligence model runs, the artificial intelligence model may predict the sensing information of the target object within a future period of time based on the sensing information of the target object obtained at a certain moment. By using the artificial intelligence model to predict the sensing information of the target object, the measurement sensing operations performed by the sensing receiving device can be reduced, and the power consumption of the sensing receiving device can be reduced.

[0059] For example, the artificial intelligence model obtains the position information, speed information, and horizontal angle information of the target vehicle at time t0. The artificial intelligence model can predict the position information, speed information, and horizontal angle information of the target vehicle from time t0 to t1.

[0060] In some application scenarios, the target object may be in a moving state. Correspondingly, the sensing results obtained by the sensing receiving device through measurement sensing operations may change.

[0061] For example, as the target object gradually moves away from the sensing receiving device, the wireless environment between the target object and the sensing receiving device gradually deteriorates, and the quality of the sensing results obtained by the sensing receiving device may gradually deteriorate.

[0062] In some other application scenarios, since the artificial intelligence model may not be applicable to different external environments, the quality of the sensing results obtained by the method of predicting sensing based on the artificial intelligence model may also gradually deteriorate within a certain period of time.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present invention, when it is determined that the sensing results meet the switching trigger conditions, the sensing receiving device may switch the sensing method.

[0064] In a specific implementation, for the sensing receiving device to switch the sensing mode may mean: switching the sensing mode from the first sensing mode to the second sensing mode. Or, for the sensing receiving device to switch the sensing mode may mean: switching the sensing mode from the second sensing mode to the first sensing mode.

[0065] In a specific implementation, the first sensing mode may be a classic (legacy) sensing mode, and the classic sensing mode may include: a sensing mode for performing measurement sensing operations on a target object. The second sensing mode may include: a sensing mode based on prediction by an artificial intelligence model.

[0066] That is to say, the classic sensing mode can perform measurement sensing operations on the target object through measurement parameters to obtain a sensing result. The sensing mode based on prediction by an artificial intelligence model is to predict the sensing result of the target object based on the artificial intelligence model, or predict the optimal sensing mode, or predict the optimal sensing node.

[0067] In a specific implementation, the switching trigger condition may be characterized as: the quality of the sensing result continuously deteriorates within a certain period of time, or the quality of the sensing result is lower than a certain quality threshold within a certain period of time. Or, the switching trigger condition may also be characterized as the non-detection of the target object. For example, a limiting condition can be added that the target object has not been detected for a period of time; or it can also be characterized as a large interference noise.

[0068] Specifically, the switching trigger condition may include at least one of the following: the signal strength value of the communication link with the target object decreases within the first time period, the signal strength value of the communication link with the target object is lower than the first threshold within the first time period, the target object is not detected, and the interference noise is greater than the second threshold.

[0069] Among them, the quality of the sensing result can be one of the following: the received SINR of the sensing signal, the received RSRP of the sensing signal, the RSSI of the sensing signal, the number of times the target object is not detected.

[0070] The above-mentioned first time period can be pre-configured. For example, the sensing sending device can configure the first time period for the sensing receiving device. The first time period can also be determined independently by the sensing receiving device, or the first time period can also be defined in the communication protocol.

[0071] In some embodiments, the artificial intelligence model can be deployed in the sensing receiving device. However, whether the artificial intelligence model is turned on or not is determined by the sensing sending device. That is to say, it is the sensing sending device that decides whether to turn on the artificial intelligence model of the sensing receiving device.

[0072] Specifically, when the perception receiving device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, it can send second indication information to the perception sending device. Based on the second indication information, the perception sending device can instruct the perception receiving device to activate the artificial intelligence model. Subsequently, the perception receiving device can use the artificial intelligence model to predict the perception result of the target object, thereby achieving the handover of the perception method.

[0073] For example, the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the perception sending device is a network device. The artificial intelligence model is deployed in the terminal device. At time t0, the terminal device performs a measurement and perception operation on the target object to obtain the perception result of the target object. As time goes by, at time t1, the terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met and sends the second indication information to the network device. Based on the second indication information, the network device instructs the terminal device to activate the artificial intelligence model. The terminal device activates the artificial intelligence model and predicts the perception result of the target object based on the artificial intelligence model.

[0074] Another example is that the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the perception sending device is a perception function unit. The artificial intelligence model is deployed in the terminal device. At time t0, the terminal device performs a measurement and perception operation on the target object to obtain the perception result of the target object. As time goes by, at time t1, the terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met and sends the second indication information to the perception function unit. Based on the second indication information, the perception function unit instructs the terminal device to activate the artificial intelligence model. The terminal device activates the artificial intelligence model and predicts the perception result of the target object based on the artificial intelligence model.

[0075] In some other embodiments, the artificial intelligence model can be deployed in the perception sending device, and the perception sending device decides whether to activate the artificial intelligence model.

[0076] Specifically, when the perception receiving device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, it can send second indication information to the perception sending device. Based on the second indication information, the perception sending device can determine to activate the artificial intelligence model. In this scenario, the perception sending device can predict the perception result of the target object through the artificial intelligence model.

[0077] For example, the perception sending device is a network device, and the artificial intelligence model is deployed in the network device. The perception receiving device is a terminal device. The terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met and sends the second indication information to the network device. Based on the second indication information, the network device can determine to activate the artificial intelligence model. In this scenario, the network device can predict the perception result of the target object through the artificial intelligence model.

[0078] In still some other embodiments, the artificial intelligence model can be deployed in the perception receiving device, and the perception function unit decides whether to activate the artificial intelligence model.

[0079] For example, the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and an artificial intelligence model is deployed in the terminal device. When the terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, it sends second indication information to the perception function unit. The perception function unit decides to activate the artificial intelligence model in the terminal device and sends notification information to the terminal device. The terminal device activates the artificial intelligence model based on the notification information.

[0080] Alternatively, the artificial intelligence model can be deployed in the perception sending device, and the perception function unit decides whether to activate the artificial intelligence model.

[0081] For example, the perception sending device is a network device, and an artificial intelligence model is deployed in the network device. When the terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, it sends second indication information to the perception function unit. The perception function unit decides to activate the artificial intelligence model in the network device and sends notification information to the network device. The network device activates the artificial intelligence model based on the notification information.

[0082] In some other embodiments, it can be determined by the perception sending device whether to activate the artificial intelligence model to switch the first perception mode currently executed by the perception receiving device to the second perception mode.

[0083] Specifically, when the perception receiving device obtains a perception result through a measurement perception operation, it can determine whether the perception result meets the handover trigger condition. If the perception receiving device determines that the handover trigger condition is met, the perception receiving device can send second indication information to the perception sending device to indicate that the perception result meets the handover trigger condition.

[0084] In some embodiments, the artificial intelligence model is deployed in the perception receiving device, and the perception receiving device decides whether to activate the artificial intelligence model.

[0085] Specifically, when the perception receiving device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, the perception receiving device switches the first perception mode currently executed to the second perception mode.

[0086] For example, the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the artificial intelligence model is deployed in the terminal device. At time t0, the terminal device performs a measurement perception operation on the target object to obtain a perception result of the target object. As time goes by, at time t1, the terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, and the terminal device activates the artificial intelligence model and predicts the perception result of the target object based on the artificial intelligence model.

[0087] Another example is that the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the artificial intelligence model is deployed in the terminal device. At time t0, the terminal device predicts the perception result of the target object based on the artificial intelligence model. At time t1, the terminal device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, and the terminal device deactivates the artificial intelligence model and performs a measurement perception operation on the target object to obtain a perception result of the target object.

[0088] For another example, the perception receiving device is a network device, and the artificial intelligence model is deployed in the network device. At time t0, the network device predicts the perception result of the target object based on the artificial intelligence model. At time t1, when the network device detects that the handover trigger condition is met, the network device shuts down the artificial intelligence model and performs a measurement and perception operation on the target object to obtain the perception result of the target object.

[0089] In the embodiments of the present invention, the running entity of the artificial intelligence model (i.e., the perception sending device, the perception receiving device, and the perception functional unit) may obtain a new perception beam direction. The perception sending device can obtain the sending information of the new perception beam direction, and the perception receiving device can obtain the receiving information of the new perception beam direction.

[0090] If the running entity of the artificial intelligence model is the perception sending device, the perception sending device can send the receiving information of the new perception beam to the perception receiving device.

[0091] Specifically, the perception sending device is a network device, the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the running entity of the artificial intelligence model is the network device. The network device sends the receiving information of the new perception beam output by the artificial intelligence model to the terminal device.

[0092] If the running entity of the artificial intelligence model is the perception receiving device, the perception receiving device can send the sending information of the new perception beam to the perception sending device.

[0093] Specifically, the perception sending device is a network device, the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the running entity of the artificial intelligence model is the terminal device. The terminal device sends the sending information of the new perception beam output by the artificial intelligence model to the network device.

[0094] If the running entity of the artificial intelligence model is the perception functional unit, the perception functional unit can send the sending information of the new perception beam to the perception sending device and send the receiving information of the new perception beam to the perception receiving device.

[0095] Specifically, the perception sending device is a network device, the perception receiving device is a terminal device, and the running entity of the artificial intelligence model is the perception functional unit. The perception functional unit sends the sending information of the new perception beam output by the artificial intelligence model to the network device and sends the receiving information of the new perception beam output by the artificial intelligence model to the terminal device.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present invention, the sensing sending device may further send first indication information, and the first indication information may indicate that the sensing receiving device switches the currently executed first sensing method to a second sensing method.

[0101] As described in the above embodiments, the first sensing method may be a classical sensing method, and the second sensing method may be a sensing method based on artificial intelligence model prediction. Or, the first sensing method may be a sensing method based on artificial intelligence model prediction, and the second sensing method may be a classical sensing method.
