The receiving device reflects the perception reference signal and performs the perception action to determine the perception result information. The transmitting device sends the perception reference signal and determines the position, distance and other information of the perception target through reflection, and uses the MIMO beam signal for compensation to improve the perception accuracy.
The positioning precision and accuracy of the perceived targets in the high-frequency perception system are improved, the communication overhead in the perception process is reduced, and the recognition ability of the perceived targets is enhanced.

Abstract
Description
Perception method, device, system and storage medium Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to a sensing method, device, system, and storage medium. Background Art
[0002] In existing perception systems, the perception receiver (Receiver / Reception) obtains information such as the time delay, angle, and Doppler of the perception signal, and then calculates information such as the position and distance of the perception target. The larger the perception signal bandwidth, the smaller the distance resolution and the higher the positioning accuracy. Large bandwidth requires the use of higher frequency bands, such as millimeter wave bands and sub-THz (sub-terahertz, Asia-Pacific Gigahertz) bands. According to the electromagnetic wave spatial path loss model, high-frequency perception signals have higher free space path loss, and the same transmission power results in a shorter radiation distance. Therefore, large-scale MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) beamforming is needed to solve the problem of short transmission distance.

Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).
[0173] FIG1B is a schematic diagram of a perception method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG1B , in a high-frequency perception system, the bandwidth is large. Due to the large wavelength difference between different subcarriers, a beam squint phenomenon will occur under the action of the same analog beamforming vector, that is, the aggregated beam will deviate from the line of sight and spread to other directions like the dispersion of light, and the angle at which the beam deviates from the line of sight changes with the change of the signal frequency. This phenomenon will cause the gain loss of the antenna array in the transmitting device, and the original narrow beam will be converted into a wide beam related to the frequency. For example, the transmitting device sends a carrier signal with a large bandwidth to the first device. The carrier signal is used to be reflected by the first device to the receiving device. The receiving device determines the perception result of the first device based on the perceived carrier signal through a relevant perception algorithm. The perception result may include the position information, distance information, size information, orientation information and speed information of the first device.
[0174] During the transmission of the carrier signal, the carrier signal is affected by the beam squint and dispersed into f h 、f c 、f l The subcarrier beam of which the subcarrier beam f h 、f l Beam deviation will occur, and the line of sight emitted by the transmitting device will shift in other directions, resulting in the first device only being able to receive subcarrier beam f c , and f h 、f l The first device sends subcarrier beam f c When reflected to the receiving device, the receiving device is based on f c The inability to accurately perceive the sensing result information of the first device results in a sensing failure of the first device. Therefore, the receiving device needs to provide feedback to the transmitting device, indicating that the current sensing action has failed, so that the transmitting device can compensate for the sensing reference signal and resend the sensing reference signal.
[0175] In some embodiments, when using a wide-bandwidth sensing reference signal for sensing, for smaller sensing targets, due to the smaller signal reception angle and signal range of the sensing target, when affected by beam squint, only sensing signals in certain frequency bands will be reflected from the sensing target to the receiving end, causing the energy of the sensing signal received by the receiving end to decrease, which may result in insufficient sensing accuracy or erroneous judgment of the sensing results. For example, if all broadband sensing signals are compensated to make the sensing signal beam a narrow beam, more sensing beams will be required to scan the same area. Moreover, for some larger sensing targets, if their shape needs to be sensed, the narrow beam needs to be sensed multiple times, increasing the communication overhead during the sensing process.
[0176] FIG2A is an interactive diagram of a perception method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2A , the present disclosure embodiment relates to a perception method, which is performed by a receiving device, a transmitting device, and a first device. The method includes:
[0177] In step S2101, a transmitting device sends a third perception reference signal to a first device.
[0178] In some embodiments, the third perception reference signal is used to sense relevant information of the first device, including location information, orientation information, size information, speed information, angle information, etc. A transmitting device transmits the third perception reference signal to the first device, which is then reflected by the first device to a receiving device. The receiving device then determines relevant information of the first device based on the reflected third perception reference signal.
[0179] In some embodiments, the name of the third perception reference signal is not limited, and may be, for example, "perception signal", "perception beam", "perception beam signal", etc.
[0180] In some embodiments, the transmitting device is a perception transmitting device that can actively perceive surrounding environmental information. This perception transmitting device can achieve perception of the surrounding environment based on a sensing device configured in the device, and can perceive relevant information of the first device by transmitting a perception reference signal. For example, the perception transmitting device can be a base station, a terminal device, or other network node device, and this is not limited in this embodiment.
[0181] In some embodiments, the name of the transmitting end device is not limited, and it may be, for example, a "perception transmitting end device", a "perception initiating end device", a "TX (Transmitter) device", etc.
[0182] In some embodiments, the transmitting device is used to achieve high-precision perception of the first device. To achieve the perception accuracy requirements of the first device, the third perception reference signal sent by the transmitting device has a larger bandwidth, a smaller distance resolution, and a higher positioning accuracy. Therefore, in this embodiment, the third perception reference signal uses a higher frequency beam, such as a millimeter wave or sub-THz frequency band beam. According to the electromagnetic wave spatial path loss model, the free space path loss of high-frequency perception reference signals is higher, resulting in a shorter radiation distance at the same transmission power. Therefore, in this embodiment, large-scale MIMO beamforming is used to solve the problem of short transmission distance of the perception reference signal.
[0183] In some embodiments, the third perception reference signal is a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) beam signal.
[0184] For example, in this embodiment, to meet the high-precision sensing requirements of the first device, the sensing reference signal emitted by the transmitting device is a high-frequency sensing reference signal. To overcome the short radiation range of high-frequency sensing reference signals during transmission, the sensing reference signal emitted by the transmitting device uses a MIMO beam signal. MIMO technology utilizes multiple antennas on both the transmitting and receiving devices, increasing capacity and improving performance by leveraging inter-antenna path differences. The MIMO beam signal is transmitted through multiple transmitting antennas to form a spatial beam signal, achieving selective coverage of the sensing beam.
[0185] For example, by adjusting the phase and amplitude of different antennas, multiple independent sensing channels can be formed in the MIMO system, thereby improving the spectrum efficiency of the sensing beam and realizing long-distance radiation transmission of the sensing reference signal during the transmission process.
[0186] In some embodiments, the first device is a device whose relevant information is perceived. The transmitting device sends a perception reference signal to the first device. The first device reflects the perception reference signal to the receiving device. The receiving device obtains the delay, angle, Doppler and other information of the reflected perception reference signal to determine the relevant information of the first device. The relevant information includes the position, distance, size, speed and other information of the first device.
[0187] In some embodiments, the name of the first device is not limited, and it can be, for example, a "sensing target device", a "sensed device", a "target sensing device", etc.
[0188] In step S2102 , the first device reflects the first perception reference signal to the receiving device based on the third perception reference signal.
[0189] For example, in this embodiment, the first device reflects the third perception reference signal transmitted by the transmitting device, the third perception reference signal is converted into the first perception reference signal after passing through the first device, and the first perception reference signal is reflected to the receiving device.
[0190] In a communication system that transmits high-frequency signals, when the bandwidth of the transmission beam is large, the wavelengths of the corresponding subcarriers vary significantly. This results in beam squint under the action of the same analog beamforming vector. This means that the beam will deviate from the line of sight and spread in other directions, just like the dispersion of light. Furthermore, the angle at which the beam deviates from the line of sight varies with the signal frequency. This phenomenon can cause a loss in the gain of the transmitting antenna array, converting the original narrow beam into a frequency-dependent wide beam. Therefore, in this embodiment, the third perception reference signal sent by the transmitting device will be spread along the line of sight during transmission into multiple subcarrier beams of different frequencies, which are then transmitted to the first device. Different first devices have different signal reception ranges for the subcarrier beams, and accordingly, the first perception reference signal reflected based on the third perception reference signal will be different.
[0191] In some embodiments, in this implementation, the first device is a device with a large signal reception range, such as a vehicle. The diffusion angle of the subcarrier beam corresponding to the third perception reference signal, when within the signal reception range of the first device, the subcarrier beam diffused by the third perception reference signal can be completely received by the first device, and the first perception reference signal reflected to the receiving end device is the same as the third perception reference signal.
[0192] In step S2103, the receiving device determines that the first perception reference signal is not missing, and determines perception result information of the first device according to the first perception reference signal.
[0193] For example, in this embodiment, the first device is a larger device, and the third perception reference signal sent by the transmitting device can be completely reflected by the first device to the receiving device, that is, the third perception reference signal is the same as the first perception reference signal. The receiving device can determine the perception result information of the first device based on the delay, angle, Doppler and other information of the first perception reference signal.
[0194] In some embodiments, the perception result information includes at least one of the following:
[0195] location information of the first device;
[0196] direction information of the first device;
[0197] angle information of the first device;
[0198] size information of the first device;
[0199] Speed information of the first device.
[0200] For example, after receiving the first perception reference signal, the receiving device first determines the first perception reference signal. In this embodiment, the receiving device is configured with a relevant perception reference signal missing determination algorithm. Based on the determination algorithm, it is determined that the first perception reference signal is not missing, that is, when the first perception reference signal matches the third perception reference signal transmitted by the transmitting device, the first perception reference signal can be calculated based on the perception algorithm to determine the position information, direction information, angle information, size information, speed information, etc. of the first device.

[0222] In some embodiments, reference may be made to other optional implementations described before or after the description corresponding to FIG. 2A .
[0223] FIG2B is an interactive diagram of a perception method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2B , the present disclosure embodiment relates to a perception method, which is performed by a receiving device, a transmitting device, and a first device. The method includes:
[0224] In step S2201, a transmitting device sends a third perception reference signal to a first device.
[0225] In some embodiments, the third perception reference signal is a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) beam signal.
[0226] The optional implementation of step S2201 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2101 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.
[0227] In step S2202 , the first device reflects the first perception reference signal to the receiving device based on the third perception reference signal.
[0228] In some embodiments, the first device in this embodiment is a device with a small signal reception range, such as a mobile terminal or a wearable device. The diffusion angle of a portion of the subcarrier beam corresponding to the third perception reference signal can be reflected by the first device, reflecting the portion of the subcarrier beam to the receiving device. That is, due to the influence of beam squint, the perception reference signal of a portion of the frequency band of the third perception reference signal is not received and reflected by the first device, and the first device can only reflect a portion of the perception reference signal to the receiving device. The first perception reference signal is the portion of the perception reference signal received and reflected by the first device, that is, the first perception reference signal is a portion of the subcarrier signal of the third perception reference signal.
[0229] Step S2203: The receiving device determines that the first perception reference signal is missing, and sends first information to the transmitting device.
[0230] For example, the receiving device is configured with a perception reference signal determination algorithm, which can determine whether the first perception reference signal reflected by the first device is missing, and send first information to the transmitting device when the first perception reference signal is missing.
[0231] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate that the first perception reference signal is missing.
[0232] For example, the first perception reference signal may include location information of the transmitting device and device ID information of the transmitting device. When the receiving device determines that the first perception reference signal is missing, it may send first information to the transmitting device based on the location information and device ID information, and indicate that the first perception reference signal is missing through the first information.
[0233] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:
[0234] frequency domain position information of the first perception reference signal;
[0235] subcarrier index information of the first perception reference signal;
[0236] Frequency domain index information of the first perceptual reference signal.
[0237] For example, a receiving device may indicate a received first perception reference signal using first information, where the first information may include at least one of frequency domain location information, subcarrier index information, or frequency domain index information of the first perception reference signal. When the first information indicates that the corresponding first perception reference signal is missing, the transmitting device may determine a compensation coefficient for the corresponding perception reference signal based on relevant information such as the frequency domain location information, subcarrier index information, or frequency domain index information of the first perception reference signal carried in the first information, and compensate the third perception reference signal based on the compensation coefficient.
[0238] In some embodiments, the name of the first information is not limited, and it can be, for example, "reference signal missing indication information", "indication information", "perceptual reference signal ID information", "perceptual reference signal frequency domain information", etc.
[0239] Step S2204: The transmitting device determines a beam squint compensation coefficient of the third perception reference signal according to the first information;
[0240] For example, after the transmitting device obtains the first information sent by the receiving device, it determines the third perception reference signal initially sent based on the first information, and compares the third perception reference signal with the first perception reference signal received by the receiving device to determine the beam squint compensation coefficient. The beam squint compensation coefficient is used to compensate the third perception reference signal to offset the beam squint phenomenon during the transmission process.
[0241] In step S2205 , the transmitting device generates a fourth perception reference signal according to the beam squint compensation coefficient and the third perception reference signal, and sends the fourth perception reference signal to the first device.
[0242] For example, in this embodiment, the transmitting device compensates the third perception reference signal based on the beam squint compensation coefficient to generate a fourth perception reference signal, which is then transmitted to the first device. Based on the beam squint compensation coefficient, multiple subcarrier signals of the fourth perception reference signal are reflected by the first device and transformed into a second perception reference signal, which is then transmitted to the receiving device.
[0243] In some embodiments, the fourth perception reference signal is a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) beam signal.
[0244] In step S2206 , the first device reflects the second perception reference signal to the receiving device according to the fourth perception reference signal.
[0245] For example, the first device reflects the received fourth perception reference signal into a second perception reference signal and sends the second perception reference signal to the receiving device.
[0246] Step S2207: The receiving device determines the perception result information of the first device according to the second perception reference signal.
[0247] For example, the second perception reference signal received by the receiving device at this time is not missing, and therefore the perception result information of the first device can be determined based on the second perception reference signal.
[0248] The optional implementation of step S2207 can refer to the optional implementation of step S2103 in Figure 2A and other related parts in the embodiment involved in Figure 2A, which will not be repeated here.
[0249] For example, the first device is a small device. To achieve the high-precision perception requirement of the perception receiving device on the first device, the perception reference signal bandwidth sent by the perception transmitting device is large, and the perception transmitting device is configured with a large-scale MIMO array. The perception reference signal is beamformed by the perception transmitting device. Due to the influence of the beam squint phenomenon, during the perception process, the perception reference signal f sent by the perception transmitting device is at a high frequency f. h and low frequency f l Some corresponding sensing reference signals are not reflected by the sensing target, resulting in only subcarrier f c The sensing reference signal of the partial bandwidth and its vicinity is reflected by the sensing target and reaches the sensing receiving device. The sensing receiving device only obtains the sensing reference signal of the partial bandwidth. Since the power of the sensing reference signal obtained by the sensing receiving device is low, it cannot meet the requirements of high-precision positioning. After analysis, the sensing receiving device can determine that the frequency domain position of the sensing signal reflected by the sensing target is f c , the perception receiving end device feeds back the subcarrier index or frequency domain index of the received perception reference signal to the perception sending end device.
[0250] Based on the information fed back by the sensing receiving device, the sensing transmitting device compensates the sensing reference signal f through TTD (Time Delay And Sum) / DPP (Digital Predistortion) or sub-band precoding, evaluates the beam squint compensation coefficient of the sensing reference signal, and adjusts the width of the sensing beam so that the sensing beam converges in the direction of the sensing target, thereby increasing the received power of the sensing signal at the sensing receiving segment device to meet the sensing performance requirements. The compensated beam is aligned with the actual direction of the sensing target (subcarrier f c The sensing receiving device receives the sensing signal re-reflected by the sensing target and then senses it again to evaluate the sensing result information of the sensing target.

[0348] FIG6A is a schematic diagram illustrating a beam squint-based perception method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG6A , the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a beam squint-based perception method, which is performed by a transmitting device, a receiving device, and a first device. The method includes:
[0349] Step S6101: The transmitting device sends an initial sensing reference signal to the first device.
[0350] For example, in this embodiment, the initial perception reference signal is a perception reference signal with a larger bandwidth, the transmitting device is a transmitter of a large-scale MIMO array, and the initial perception reference signal is beamformed by the transmitting device and is used to perceive a perception target in the perception environment, which is the first device.
[0351] In some embodiments, the initial sensing reference signal is used to sense the first device, the initial sensing reference signal is reflected by the first device, and the reflected sensing reference signal is sent to the receiving device.
[0352] Step S6102: The first device reflects an initial sensing reference signal to a receiving device.
[0353] In an example, the first device is a target sensing device, the transmitting device sends an initial sensing reference signal, the initial sensing reference signal is reflected by the first device, and the receiving device senses the first device according to the reflected initial sensing reference signal.
[0354] In some embodiments, the first device may be a device with a relatively small volume, and the corresponding signal capture angle and signal capture range of the perception reference signal reflected by the first device are relatively small. When the initial perception reference signal undergoes beam squint, it will cause some subcarrier signals to deviate from the signal capture range of the first device and cannot be captured by the first device, resulting in a partial loss of the perception reference signal. The first device may be a device with a relatively large volume, and the corresponding signal capture angle and signal capture range of the perception reference signal received by the first device are relatively large. However, in some application scenarios, the first device will still be affected by beam squint, causing some subcarrier signals to deviate from the signal capture range of the first device, resulting in a partial loss of the perception reference signal.
[0355] Step S6103: The receiving device performs a corresponding sensing action according to the reflected initial sensing reference signal.
[0356] For example, the receiving device is configured with a determination algorithm for determining whether an initial sensing reference signal is missing, and a sensing algorithm for determining sensing result information of the first device based on the reflected initial sensing reference signal. After receiving the reflected initial sensing reference signal, the receiving device determines whether the sensing reference signal is partially missing. Different sensing actions are performed based on different determination results.
[0357] Optionally, in some embodiments, the receiving device determines that the reflected initial perception reference signal is missing, and then sends first information to the transmitting device.
[0358] The transmitting device compensates the initial sensing reference signal according to the first information, and sends the compensated initial sensing reference signal to the first device.
[0359] The first device reflects the compensated initial sensing reference signal to the receiving device.
[0360] The receiving device determines the perception result information of the first device according to the compensated initial perception reference signal.
[0361] For example, the first information is used to indicate that a reflected initial perception reference signal is partially missing. The transmitting device may determine a beam squint compensation coefficient based on the first information, perform beam squint compensation based on the initial perception reference signal to offset the beam squint during transmission, generate a compensated perception reference signal, and send it to the first device, so that the perception reference signal reflected by the first device to the receiving device is not missing. The receiving device may determine perception result information of the first device based on the reflected perception reference signal.
[0362] FIG6B is a schematic diagram of a sensing method based on beam squint according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG6B , the sensing transmitter TX sends a sensing reference signal f to the sensing target. Due to the influence of beam squint, the sensing reference signal f is dispersed into multiple subcarrier signals f during the transmission process. h 、f c 、f l , where the subcarrier signal f h 、f l Deviating from the line of sight, the target is perceived as having only subcarrier f c The sensing reference signal of the subcarrier fc and its surrounding bandwidth is reflected to the sensing receiver. The sensing receiver evaluates the sensing reference signal and, if it determines that the reflected sensing reference signal is partially missing, feeds back the subcarrier index or frequency domain index of the subcarrier fc to the sensing transmitter. After receiving the frequency domain index and other information fed back by the sensing receiver, the sensing transmitter estimates the beam squint compensation coefficient based on the frequency domain index information and transmits the compensated beam in the actual direction of the sensing target. The sensing target then reflects the compensated beam to the sensing receiver. This allows the sensing receiver to calculate and determine the sensing result information of the sensing target based on the compensated beam.
[0363] It should be noted that the beam squint compensation coefficient is used to offset the perception reference signal dispersion caused by beam squint in the process of sending the perception reference signal from the perception transmitter to the perception target, so that the perception reference signal reflected by the perception target matches the perception reference signal sent by the perception transmitter, so that there is no energy loss in the perception reference signal received by the perception receiver, and the perception receiver can determine the perception result information of the perception target based on the perception reference signal.
[0364] In some embodiments, the sensing action is used to determine sensing result information of the first device.
[0365] In some embodiments, the perception result information includes location information, distance information, speed information, angle information, etc. of the first device.
[0366] Optionally, in some embodiments, the receiving device determines that the reflected initial perception reference signal is not missing, and determines the perception result information of the first device based on the initial perception reference signal.
[0367] For example, in some scenarios, even if the initial perception reference signal sent by the perception transmitting device undergoes beam squint during transmission, causing the initial perception reference signal to be split into subcarrier signals in multiple directions, due to the large signal reception range of the perception target, the split subcarrier signals in multiple directions are still within the signal reception range of the perception target. The perception reference signal reflected to the perception receiving end by the perception target matches the initial perception reference signal sent by the perception transmitting end. The perception receiving end can determine the perception result information of the perception target based on the received perception reference signal.
[0368] FIG6C is a schematic diagram of a sensing method based on beam squint according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG6C , in this embodiment, the sensing reference signal bandwidth sent by the sensing transmitter TX is relatively large, and the sensing transmitter is a large-scale MIMO array. The sensing reference signal is beamformed by the sensing transmitter RX and sent to the sensing target. The sensing target is relatively large, and the sensing receiver needs to sense the location information or distance information of the sensing target. At this time, due to the effect of beam squint, the sensing reference signal f is expanded into a wide beam f h 、f c 、f l However, due to the large size of the sensing target, the wide beam f h 、f c 、f l All of the signals can be reflected by the sensing target and reach the sensing receiver RX. The sensing receiver RX can obtain the sensing reference signal f on the full bandwidth and determine the sensing result information of the sensing target based on the sensing reference signal f, where the sensing result information includes the position information or distance information of the sensing target.
