Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an AP duplex mode optimization method for a multi-station cooperative interawareness integrated system, and belongs to the technical field of mobile communications. Background Art

[0002] As mobile communication technology advances toward the era of intelligent connectivity, mobile communication networks are being endowed with more capabilities. Amid the emergence of new intelligent applications such as smart cities, intelligent transportation, and unmanned factories, mobile communication systems, as widely deployed information infrastructure, will continue to integrate sensing functions based on integrated communication and perception technologies, gradually evolving into a unified information infrastructure integrating both perception and communication capabilities. Combining cellular-free networks with technologies such as massive MIMO, network-assisted full-duplex, and ultra-dense networking not only enables high-speed information transmission but also significantly enhances the system's perception accuracy.

[0003] Multi-station collaborative sensing technology uses multiple distributed nodes, some of which transmit signals while others receive the echo signals reflected from the sensing target. This technology achieves higher sensing accuracy and wider coverage, while avoiding full-duplex interference. Network-assisted full-duplex cell-free massive MIMO technology densely distributes multiple distributed antennas, each performing uplink or downlink communication, to support simultaneous access for uplink and downlink users, providing more efficient, lower-latency, and more reliable communication services.

[0004] The multi-station collaborative telepresence integrated system enables high-performance perception while delivering high-quality communication services, fully leveraging the advantages of mobile communication networks. The AP's uplink and downlink mode selection is closely related to both communication and perception performance. Choosing the right AP mode can provide more perception information and higher spatial diversity gain, potentially improving both communication and perception performance. Summary of the Invention

[0055] Step 2: In the NAFD-based multi-station collaborative telepathy integrated system, the communication perception process can be divided into multiple time slots. Each time slot includes a pilot training phase and a communication perception phase. One time slot is equivalent to a complete communication perception process, including channel estimation, cross-link interference cancellation, uplink and downlink communication, and uplink and downlink perception. First, in the uplink pilot training phase, all users send uplink pilot signals to the AP. The AP performs uplink channel estimation based on the received pilot signals. The uplink channel estimation obtains the channel between the user and the AP. After receiving the pilot signal, the AP constructs a signal model as a mathematical expression of the uplink pilot received signal.
