[0137] Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of a wireless communication system provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 4, the wireless communication system may include: an access point (AP) and a station (STA).

[0138] In some scenarios, an AP can be referred to as an AP STA, meaning that in a sense, an AP is also a type of STA. In some scenarios, a STA can be referred to as a non-AP STA.

[0139] In some embodiments, STAs may include AP STAs and non-AP STAs. Communication in a communication system may be between an AP and a non-AP STA, between a non-AP STA and a non-AP STA, or between a STA and a peer STA. A peer STA may refer to a device that communicates with a STA. For example, a peer STA may be an AP or a non-AP STA.

[0140] An AP acts as a bridge between wired and wireless networks, connecting wireless network clients together and then connecting the wireless network to the Ethernet. An AP can be a terminal device (such as a mobile phone) or a network device (such as a router) equipped with a Wireless Fidelity (WIFI) chip.

[0141] It should be understood that the role of STA in the communication system is not absolute. For example, in some scenarios, when a mobile phone is connected to a router, the mobile phone is a non-AP STA. When the mobile phone serves as a hotspot for other mobile phones, the mobile phone plays the role of AP.

[0142] APs and non-AP STAs can be devices used in the Internet of Vehicles, IoT nodes and sensors in the Internet of Things (IoT), smart cameras, smart remote controls, smart water and electricity meters in smart homes, and sensors in smart cities.

[0143] In some embodiments, a non-AP STA may support 802.11be. A non-AP STA may also support various current and future 802.11 family wireless LAN standards, such as 802.11ax, 802.11ac, 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a.

[0144] In some embodiments, the AP may be a device supporting the 802.11be standard. The AP may also be a device supporting various current and future 802.11 family WLAN standards, such as 802.11ax, 802.11ac, 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a.

[0145] It should be noted that the above protocols are only examples, and the protocols supported by the AP and STA are not limited to the above protocols.

[0146] In the embodiment of the present application, the STA may be a mobile phone, tablet computer, computer, virtual reality (VR) device, augmented reality (AR) device, wireless device in industrial control, set-top box, wireless device in self-driving, in-vehicle communication equipment, wireless device in remote medical, wireless device in smart grid, wireless device in transportation safety, wireless device in smart city, wireless device in smart home, wireless communication chip, ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), SOC (System on Chip), etc. that supports WLAN / WIFI technology.

[0147] The frequency bands supported by WLAN technology may include but are not limited to: low frequency bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz) and high frequency bands (45 GHz, 60 GHz).

[0148] There are one or more links between the station and the access point. In some embodiments, the station and the access point support multi-band communication. For example, communication is performed simultaneously on the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz, 45 GHz, and 60 GHz frequency bands, or communication is performed simultaneously on different channels of the same frequency band (or different frequency bands), thereby improving the communication throughput and / or reliability between devices. Such a device is generally referred to as a multi-band device, or a multi-link device (MLD), sometimes also referred to as a multi-link entity or a multi-band entity. A multi-link device can be an access point device or a station device. If the multi-link device is an access point device, the multi-link device includes one or more APs; if the multi-link device is a station device, the multi-link device includes one or more non-AP STAs.

[0149] A multi-link device including one or more APs may be referred to as an AP, and a multi-link device including one or more non-AP STAs may be referred to as a non-AP.

[0150] In an embodiment of the present application, the AP may include multiple APs, the Non-AP may include multiple STAs, multiple links may be formed between the APs in the AP and the STAs in the Non-AP, and data communication may be performed between the APs in the AP and the corresponding STAs in the Non-AP through the corresponding links.

[0151] An AP is a device deployed in a wireless local area network to provide wireless communication capabilities for STAs. A station may include: User Equipment (UE), an access terminal, a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a mobile station, a mobile station, a remote station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a wireless communication device, a user agent, or a user device. Optionally, a station may also be a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a Wireless Local Loop (WLL) station, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a handheld device with wireless communication capabilities, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle-mounted device, or a wearable device, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0152] In the wireless communication protocol version of the related art, the perception proxy process in both the DMG and Sub-7 frequency bands is supported, and the two processes are similar. However, the related art does not consider how the proxy initiating device supporting the Sub-7 band can request the proxy initiating device supporting the DMG band to perform perception proxy when the proxy initiating device supports the Sub-7 band and has a higher-precision perception requirement or there is a lack of devices in the same frequency band. Also, when the proxy initiating device supporting the DMG band and has a lower-precision perception requirement or there is a lack of devices in the same frequency band, how the proxy initiating device can request the proxy initiating device supporting the Sub-7 band to perform perception proxy.

[0153] Based on this, the embodiments of this application propose a design solution for the perception proxy process in the DMG band and the Sub-7 band in the related art. Compared with the perception proxy process in the DMG band and the Sub-7 band in the related art, the proxy initiating device in the embodiment of this application can request perception proxy across frequency bands, which can effectively expand the application scope of perception proxy.

[0154] In some embodiments, cross-band request perception proxying in the embodiments of the present application includes the following scenarios:

[0155] 1. The low-frequency device requests the high-frequency perception agent.

[0156] 2. The high-band device requests the low-band perception agent.

[0157] 3. Request perception agents of different frequency bands (low frequency band and high frequency band) at the same time.

[0158] To implement a cross-band design, the proxy initiating device needs to indicate the frequency band it wants to request to the proxy responding device and carry relevant information about the perception agent of the corresponding frequency band. The proxy responding device then responds to the request of the proxy initiating device and initiates perception measurements of the corresponding frequency band.

[0159] Based on this:

[0160] For scenario 1, when the low-frequency band device acts as the proxy initiating device, it needs to indicate to the proxy responding device that the frequency band it wants to request is the high frequency band, and carry relevant information of the high frequency band perception agent.

[0161] For scenario 2, when the high-band device acts as the proxy initiating device, it needs to indicate to the proxy responding device that the frequency band it wants to request is the low-frequency band, and carry relevant information of the low-frequency band perception agent.

[0162] For scenario 3, when a low-frequency band device or a high-frequency band device acts as a proxy initiating device, it needs to indicate to the proxy responding device that the frequency bands it wants to request are the low-frequency band and the high-frequency band, and carry the relevant information of the perception agent of the low-frequency band and the high-frequency band at the same time.

[0699] 2.3.5 Steps for a high-band device to request a low-band perception proxy

[0700] Please refer to Figures 18 and 19. The detailed steps for a high-band device to request a low-band perception agent are as follows:

[0701] In step 0, the perception initiating device broadcasts a beacon frame, and the perception responding device actively sends a probe request frame, an association request frame, or a reassociation request frame to the perception initiating device, and receives the probe request frame, the association request frame, or the reassociation request frame returned by the perception initiating device to exchange the perception capability information of the perception initiating device and the perception responding device.

[0702] Step 1: The DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) sends a DMG agent request frame (DMG SBP request frame) to the DMG agent responding device (AP) to initiate the Sub-7 perception agent process.

[0703] Optionally, taking the DMG proxy request frame in Figure 22 as an example, the DMG proxy request frame carries a perception proxy type, a perception proxy parameter element, a perception measurement parameter element, and an initiating site availability window element, but does not carry a DMG perception proxy parameter element or a DMG perception measurement setting element. The perception proxy type has a first value. Exemplarily, the first value is set to 0.

[0704] In step 2, the DMG proxy response device (AP) sends a Sensing Measurement Setup Request frame to the sensing response device (STA2, Sub-7 device) to negotiate the operating parameters of the Sub-7 sensing measurement process.

[0705] In step 3, the sensing response device (STA2, Sub-7 device) sends a sensing measurement setup response frame (Sensing Measurement Setup Response frame) to the DMG proxy response device (AP) to indicate confirmation of establishing the Sub-7 sensing measurement.

[0706] Step 4: The DMG agent responding device (AP) sends a DMG agent response frame (DMG SBP Response frame) to the DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) to indicate that it has accepted the perception agent task.

[0707] Optionally, taking the DMG agent response frame in Figure 24 as an example, the DMG agent response frame carries a perception agent type, a perception agent parameter element, a perception measurement parameter element, a response site availability window identification field, and a measurement setting identification field, which are used to assist the DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) in parsing the perception measurement report. The perception agent type is the first value. Exemplarily, the first value is set to 0. The DMG agent response frame does not carry the DMG perception agent parameter element, the DMG perception measurement setting element, the DMG perception image distance coordinate axis query table element, the DMG perception image Doppler coordinate axis query table element, the beam description, and the DMG measurement setting identification field. If the status code is REQUEST_DECLINED, the perception agent process ends.

[0708] In step 5, the DMG proxy response device (AP) and the perception response device (STA2, Sub-7 device) complete the Sub-7 perception measurement process according to the settings in the DMG proxy request frame.

[0709] Step 6: The DMG agent responding device (AP) sends a DMG agent report frame (DMG SBP Report frame) to the DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) to inform the Sub-7 sensing measurement result.

[0710] Optionally, taking the DMG proxy report frame in Figure 25 as an example, the DMG proxy report frame carries a perception measurement report container field, but does not carry a DMG perception report control element or a DMG perception report element.

[0711] In step 7, the DMG proxy initiating device (STA1, DMG device) sends a DMG proxy termination frame (DMG SBP Termination frame) to the DMG proxy responding device (AP) to indicate the termination of the related Sub-7 perception.

[0712] Optionally, taking the DMG agent end frame in Figure 26 as an example, the DMG agent end frame carries a measurement setting identification field, which is used to specify the end of Sub-7 perception measurement. The DMG agent end frame does not carry the DMG perception agent end control field and the DMG measurement setting identification field.

[0713] 2.3.6 Steps for a high-band device to request simultaneous low-band and high-band perception proxying

[0714] Please refer to Figures 20 and 21. The detailed steps for a high-band device to request simultaneous low-band and high-band perception proxying are as follows:

[0715] Step 0, the DMG perception initiating device (AP) broadcasts a beacon frame, the DMG perception responding device (STA2, DMG device) and the perception responding device (STA3, Sub-7 device) actively send a probe request frame, an association request frame or a reassociation request frame to the DMG perception initiating device (AP), and receive the probe request frame, the association request frame or the reassociation request frame returned by the DMG perception initiating device (AP) to exchange the perception capability information of the DMG perception initiating device (AP) and the DMG perception responding device (STA2, DMG device) and the perception responding device (STA3, Sub-7 device).

[0716] Step 1: The DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) sends a DMG agent request frame (DMG SBP request frame) to the DMG agent responding device (AP) to initiate the Sub-7 perception agent process and the DMG perception agent process.

The perception proxy type is a third value. Exemplarily, the third value is set to 2.

[0718] In step 2, the DMG proxy response device (AP) sends a Sensing Measurement Setup Request frame to the sensing response device (STA3, Sub-7 device) to negotiate the operating parameters of the Sub-7 sensing measurement process.

[0719] In step 3, the sensing response device (STA3, Sub-7 device) sends a sensing measurement setup response frame (Sensing Measurement Setup Response frame) to the DMG proxy response device (AP) to indicate confirmation of establishing the sensing measurement.

[0720] In step 4, the DMG proxy response device (AP) sends a DMG sensing measurement setup request frame (DMG Sensing Measurement Setup Request frame) to the DMG sensing response device (STA2, DMG device) to negotiate operating parameters in the DMG sensing measurement process.

[0721] In step 5, the DMG sensing response device (STA2, DMG device) sends a DMG sensing measurement setup response frame (DMG Sensing Measurement Setup Response frame) to the DMG proxy response device (AP) to indicate confirmation of establishing the DMG sensing measurement.

[0722] The above steps 2 and 3, and steps 3 and 4 may be executed sequentially or simultaneously.

[0723] Step 6: The DMG agent responding device (AP) sends a DMG agent response frame (DMG SBP Response frame) to the DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) to indicate that it has accepted the perception agent task.

If the status code field is SUCCESS, the DMG agent response frame also carries a DMG perception image distance coordinate axis query table element, a DMG perception image Doppler coordinate axis query table element, and a beam description field to assist the DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) in parsing the DMG perception measurement report. If the status code field is REQUEST_DECLINED, the DMG perception agent process ends.

[0725] In step 7, the DMG proxy response device (AP) and the DMG perception response device (STA2, DMG device) complete the DMG perception measurement process according to the settings in the proxy request frame. The DMG perception response device (STA2, DMG device) feeds back the DMG perception measurement results to the DMG proxy response device (AP).

[0726] In step 8, the DMG perception response device (STA2, DMG device) and the perception response device (STA3, Sub-7 device) complete the Sub-7 band perception measurement process according to the settings in the proxy request frame. The perception response device (STA3, Sub-7 device) feeds back the perception measurement results to the DMG proxy response device (AP).

[0727] In step 9, the DMG agent responding device (AP) sends a DMG agent report frame (DMG SBP Report frame) to the DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) to inform the DMG of the perception measurement results and the Sub-7 frequency band perception measurement results.

[0728] Optionally, taking the DMG agent report frame in Figure 25 as an example, the DMG agent report frame carries a perception agent type field, a perception measurement report container field, a DMG perception report control element, and a DMG perception report element.

[0729] In step 10, the DMG proxy initiating device (STA1, DMG device) sends a DMG proxy termination frame (DMG SBP Termination frame) to the DMG proxy responding device (AP) to indicate the termination of related DMG perception and Sub-7 frequency band perception.

[0730] Optionally, taking the DMG agent end frame in Figure 26 as an example, the DMG agent end frame carries at least one of the DMG perception agent parameter element, the DMG perception agent end control field, the DMG measurement setting identification field and the measurement setting identification field.

[0731] If only the DMG perception proxy process needs to be terminated, the DMG Proxy End frame carries the DMG Perception Proxy Parameters element, the DMG Perception Proxy End Control field, and the DMG Measurement Setting Identification field. If only the Sub-7 perception proxy process needs to be terminated, the DMG Proxy End frame carries the Measurement Setting Identification field.

[0732] 3. Cross-band perception agent

[0733] Figure 27 shows a scenario diagram of cross-band perception proxy provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 27 involves multiple devices in different frequency bands. This covers situations where a low-band device requests perception proxy for a high-band, a high-band device requests perception proxy for a low-band, and both a high-band device and a low-band device request perception proxy for different frequency bands simultaneously.

If the Status Code field is SUCCESS, the Proxy Response frame also carries the DMG Perception Image Range Coordinate Axis Lookup Table element, the DMG Perception Image Doppler Coordinate Axis Lookup Table element, and the Beam Description field. The Proxy Response frame does not carry the Perception Proxy Parameters element, the Perception Measurement Parameters element, or the Response Site Availability Window element.

[0741] In step 3, the proxy responding device (AP) and the DMG perception responding device (STA3, DMG device) perform DMG perception measurements according to the parameters set in the proxy request and proxy response frames.

[0751] In step 3, the DMG proxy responding device (AP) and the perception responding device (STA4, a Sub-7 device) perform Sub-7 perception measurements according to the parameters set in the DM proxy request frame and the DMG proxy response frame. The perception responding device (STA4, a Sub-7 device) then returns a Sub-7 perception report to the DMG proxy responding device (AP).

[0752] Optionally, the DMG proxy report frame carries a perception measurement report container field, but does not carry a DMG perception report control element and a DMG perception report element.

[0753] In step 4, after receiving the DMG Proxy Report frame, the DMG Proxy Initiator (STA2, DMG device) decides whether to terminate the Sub-7 Perception Proxy process based on the perception report.

[0757] Step 1: The DMG Agent Initiator (STA2, DMG device) sends a DMG Agent Request frame to the DMG Agent Responder (AP) to initiate the DMG Perception Agent process. The Perception Agent Type field in the DMG Agent Request frame is the third value, indicating that perception agents are requested for different frequency bands simultaneously.

[0758] Optionally, the DMG agent request frame carries an awareness agent parameter element, an awareness measurement parameter element, an initiating site availability window element, a DMG awareness agent parameter element, and a DMG awareness measurement setting element.

[0759] Step 2. The DMG proxy response device (AP) negotiates perception-related parameters with the DMG perception response device (STA3, DMG device) and the perception response device (STA4, Sub-7 device).

[0762] Optionally, the DMG agent report frame carries a perception measurement report container field, a DMG perception report control element and a DMG perception report element.

[0763] In step 4, after receiving the DMG Proxy Report frame, the proxy initiating device (STA1, Sub-7 device) or DMG Proxy initiating device (STA2, DMG device) decides whether to terminate the sensing process based on the sensing report.

[0764] Optionally, the DMG agent end frame carries a measurement setting identification field, a DMG measurement setting identification field, a DMG perception agent end control field and a DMG perception agent parameter element.

[0765] 3.4 Scenario of Perception Agents for Low-Frequency Devices Simultaneously Requesting Different Frequency Bands

[0766] In step 0, the perception initiating device / DMG perception initiating device (AP) broadcasts a beacon frame, and the DMG proxy initiating device (STA2, DMG device), the DMG perception response device (STA3, DMG device) and the perception response device (STA4, Sub-7 device) actively send a probe request frame, an association request frame or a reassociation request frame to the perception initiating device / DMG perception initiating device (AP), and receive the probe request frame, association request frame or reassociation request frame returned by the perception initiating device / DMG perception initiating device (AP) to exchange the perception capability information of the perception initiating device / DMG perception initiating device (AP), the DMG proxy initiating device (STA2, DMG device), the DMG perception response device (STA3, DMG device) and the perception response device (STA4, Sub-7 device).

[0767] In step 1, the proxy initiating device (STA1, a Sub-7 device) sends a proxy request frame to the proxy responding device (AP) to initiate Sub-7 awareness proxy and DMG awareness proxy. The Awareness Proxy Type field in the proxy request frame is the third value, indicating that awareness proxy is requested for different frequency bands simultaneously.

[0768] Optionally, the proxy request frame carries an awareness proxy parameter element, an awareness measurement parameter element, an initiating site availability window element, a DMG awareness proxy parameter element, and a DMG awareness measurement setting element.

[0769] Step 2: The perception initiating device (AP) exchanges perception capability information and negotiates perception parameters with the DMG perception responding device (STA3, DMG device). The proxy responding device (AP) responds to the proxy response frame to the proxy initiating device (STA1, Sub-7 device) or the DMG proxy initiating device (STA2, DMG device).

[0770] Optionally, the proxy response frame carries a perception proxy parameter element, a perception measurement parameter element, a measurement setting identifier field, a response site availability window element, a DMG perception proxy parameter element, and a DMG perception measurement setting element.

[0774] Optionally, the proxy end frame carries a measurement setting identification field, a DMG measurement setting identification field, a DMG awareness proxy end control field and a DMG awareness proxy parameter element.

[0775] In summary, in scenarios where a high-band device requests a perception proxy from a low-band device, even in scenarios where there are no sensing devices in the same frequency band, the perception proxy service can still be obtained. In scenarios where a low-band device requests a perception proxy from a high-band device, not only can the lack of sensing devices in the same frequency band be addressed, but more detailed perception reports can also be obtained to meet higher-precision perception requirements. In scenarios where perception proxy requests are made to devices in different frequency bands simultaneously, the applicability of the perception proxy can be further improved, allowing full utilization of the various frequency band devices in the environment to obtain perception reports.

[0805] 4.2.2 High-band devices request low-band perception proxy

[0806] FIG31 shows a flowchart of a high-frequency band device requesting to perform low-frequency band perception proxying, provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application.

[0807] Figure 31 involves a DMG proxy initiating device (STA1, a DMG device), a DMG proxy responding device (AP, a device with both DMG and Sub-7 sensing capabilities), a sensing initiating device (AP), and a sensing responding device (STA2, a Sub-7 device). The DMG proxy responding device is used to request the proxy from the DMG responding proxy initiating device, and also acts as a sensing initiating device to initiate sensing.

[0808] The process of a high-band device requesting low-band perception proxy is briefly described as follows:

[0809] In step 0, the perception initiating device (AP) broadcasts a beacon frame, and the perception responding device (STA2, Sub-7 device) actively sends a probe request frame, an association request frame, or a reassociation request frame to the perception initiating device (AP), and receives the probe request frame, the association request frame, or the reassociation request frame returned by the perception initiating device (AP) to exchange the perception capability information of the perception initiating device and the perception responding device.

[0810] Step 1: The DMG agent initiating device (STA1, DMG device) sends an SBP request frame to the DMG agent responding device (AP) to initiate the Sub-7 perception agent process.

[0811] Optionally, the proxy request frame carries at least one of a sensing proxy parameter element (SBP Parameters element), a sensing measurement parameter element (Sensing Measurement Parameters element), and an initiating site availability window element (ISTA Availability Window element).

[0812] In step 2, the DMG proxy response device (AP) sends a Sensing Measurement Setup Request frame to the sensing response device (STA2, Sub-7 device) to negotiate the operating parameters of the Sub-7 sensing measurement process.

[0813] In step 3, the sensing response device (STA2, Sub-7 device) sends a sensing measurement setup response frame (Sensing Measurement Setup Response frame) to the DMG proxy response device (AP) to indicate confirmation of establishing the Sub-7 sensing measurement.

[0814] Step 4: The DMG proxy responding device (AP) sends a proxy response frame (DMG SBP Response frame) to the DMG proxy initiating device (STA1, DMG device) to indicate that it has accepted the perception proxy task.

[0815] Optionally, the proxy response frame carries at least one of a sensing proxy parameter element (SBP Parameters element), a sensing measurement parameter element (Sensing Measurement Parameters element), and a response station availability window identifier (RSTA Availability Window element) field.

[0816] In step 5, the DMG proxy response device (AP) and the perception response device (STA2, Sub-7 device) complete the Sub-7 perception measurement process according to the settings in the proxy request frame.

[0817] Step 6: The DMG proxy responding device (AP) sends a proxy report frame (SBP Report frame) to the DMG proxy initiating device (STA1, DMG device) to inform the Sub-7 sensing measurement result.

[0818] Optionally, the proxy report frame carries a sensing measurement report container (Sensing Measurement Report Container) field.

[0819] In step 7, the DMG proxy initiating device (STA1, DMG device) sends an SBP Termination frame to the DMG proxy responding device (AP) to indicate the termination of the related Sub-7 perception.

[0820] Optionally, the proxy end frame carries a measurement setup ID field.

[0821] Through another frame format of the above embodiment, the designs for the proxy request frame, proxy response frame, proxy report frame and proxy end frame can be replaced, as well as the designs for the DMG proxy request frame, DMG proxy response frame, DMG proxy report frame and DMG proxy end frame can be replaced, thereby simplifying the processing flow.
