Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of wireless sensing, and in particular to an environment sensing method and device, an electronic device, and a storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] The principle of 5th Generation Mobile Communication Technology Advanced (5G-A) sensing is that a base station transmits a sensing signal, the signal produces scattering characteristics after reaching a detection target, the base station receives the echo signal of the target and analyzes it to complete detection and identification.

[0003] In a low-altitude scenario, continuous coverage in urban areas is one of the goals that the sensing technology needs to achieve. Due to the dense buildings in urban areas, the radar scattering cross section is large, and the echo power produced when the sensing signal is transmitted to the building is very large. The echo of a nearby building can cause the receiver to saturate or even burn out, seriously affecting the performance of the sensing base station. In the process of network construction, although some problems can be solved by avoiding close-range buildings, the echo power of distant buildings is still much larger than that of the target to be detected, making it impossible to correctly identify the target to be detected, resulting in false alarms and missed detection problems.

[0004] The current method to solve the building shielding problem is: first, directly reduce the transmit power of the base station in the direction of the building shielding to solve the problem of receiver saturation or blocking of the sensing base station. Second, based on the existing beam scheme, estimate the environment point cloud, and exclude areas with large static clutter to reduce the false alarm problem caused by large static clutter interference. However, directly reducing the transmit power of the base station beam can cause missed alarms and discontinuous coverage problems. When the environment point cloud estimation scheme is used for buildings, the exclusion range may be much larger than the actual range, and the accuracy is low. SUMMARY

[0042] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, in which the same or similar notations represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0043] An environment perception method, device, electronic equipment and storage medium of an embodiment of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] Figure 1 A flowchart of an environment perception method provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the method comprises the following steps: Figure 1

[0045] S101, generating a first beam.

[0046] It can be understood that a beam refers to a shape formed by electromagnetic waves emitted by a satellite antenna on the earth's surface; in the field of environment perception, a verification signal is transmitted within the coverage of a beam.

[0047] Optionally, the configuration scheme of the current network device can be read from the network device management side, and two configuration schemes are included in the embodiment, scheme one is wide-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, and scheme two is narrow-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, different configuration schemes correspond to different beam widths, beam numbers and transmission powers of the generated first beam.

[0048] In some embodiments, if the configuration scheme is wide-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, the initial coverage in the horizontal direction is by a wide beam, the transmission power of a single wide beam is low, and the number of beams in the horizontal direction is ≤3; if the configuration scheme is narrow-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, the initial coverage in the horizontal direction is by a narrow beam, the transmission power of a single narrow beam is high, and the number of beams in the horizontal direction is ≥4; the transmission power of the wide beam and the transmission power of the narrow beam differ by 20dBm in the embodiment, which can be adaptively adjusted in other embodiments, and the specific adjustment is not limited.

[0049] S102, transmitting a first signal through the first beam and receiving a return signal corresponding to the first signal.

[0050] ​In this embodiment, the first signal is a check signal. When transmitting with a wide beam, the initial power of the check signal can be set to the initial value P_Check0. The initial value is configured in advance and will not be described in detail in this embodiment. When transmitting with a narrow beam, the initial power of the check signal is lower than the initial value. For example, the initial power is P_Check0-15dBm to P_Check0-20dBm, which is 15dBm to 20dBm lower than the initial value.

[0051] It is understood that the first signal is sent within the coverage area of ​​the first beam, and the echo signal corresponding to the first signal is received. The echo signal refers to the electromagnetic wave or sound wave signal reflected back from the target object to the receiving device. In this embodiment, the target object is a building, and the receiving device is a network device, such as a sensor base station.

[0052] S103, Based on the echo signal, determine the building information within the coverage area of ​​the first beam.

[0053] Optionally, building information may include, but is not limited to, the existence of a building.

[0054] In some embodiments, the presence of a building within the coverage area of ​​the first beam can be determined based on the signal characteristics of the echo signal, such as a preset power threshold. The presence of a building within the coverage area of ​​the first beam is determined based on the magnitude of the echo signal power and the preset power threshold. For example, when the echo signal power is less than the preset power threshold, it is determined that there is no building within the current coverage area and no processing is required; when the echo signal power is greater than or equal to the preset power threshold, it is determined that there is a building within the current coverage area.

[0055] In some embodiments, building information may also include the number of buildings and the distance between each building and the base station. When it is determined that there are buildings within the coverage area, the characteristics of the echo signal can be collected, such as capturing the time difference, intensity and phase change of the echo signal, to generate feature data. The feature data can be inferred and analyzed by a deep learning model to determine the number of buildings within the coverage area and the distance between each building and the base station. In other embodiments, different methods can be used to obtain the number of buildings, which will not be elaborated here.

[0056] S104, Update the first beam based on the building information to obtain the target beam.

[0057] Optionally, the width and number of the first beams can be adjusted according to the distance between the base station and the building in the building information; for example, the width of the first beams is reduced and the number of the beams is increased according to the distance between the building and the base station, the closer the distance, the more the width of the first beams is reduced and the more the number of the beams is increased, for example, when the distance is closer, the width of the first beams is reduced to 1 / 2 of the original width and the number of the beams is increased to 2 times, when the distance is farther, the width of the first beams is reduced to 1 / 4 of the original width and the number of the beams is increased to 4 times.

[0058] Further, whether the accuracy requirement is met can be determined according to the beam width of the updated first beams and the distance, if not, the first beams are iteratively updated until the accuracy requirement is met, and the final target beams are obtained.

[0059] S105, according to the target beams, the contour information of the building is determined.

[0060] Optionally, the contour information can be obtained according to the feature beams in the target beams, for example, the edge feature points of the building are estimated by the edge beams in the target beams, and the contour of the building is estimated according to the edge feature points of the building to obtain the contour information of the building.

[0061] In the embodiment, the first beams are generated and the first signals are transmitted through the first beams, the echo signals are received and the building information in the coverage range of the first beams is determined according to the echo signals, the width and number of the first beams are updated according to the distance in the building information, the target beams are obtained when the stop updating condition is met, and the building contour information is estimated according to the target beams, so that the accurate building contour estimation is realized, the deduction area is reduced, and the occurrence of false alarm and missed detection is reduced.

[0062] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, Figure 2 A flowchart of an environment perception method provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the method comprises the following steps:

[0063] S201, first beams are generated.

[0064] Optionally, beam configuration information can be obtained; beam configuration parameters are determined according to the beam configuration information, wherein the beam configuration parameters at least include beam transmission power, beam number and beam width; the first beams are generated according to the beam configuration parameters.

[0065] Specifically, the beam configuration information includes a configuration scheme of wide-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception and a configuration scheme of narrow-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, as shown in Figure 2A The configuration scheme of wide-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception is shown in FIG. 2; Figure 2BThe schematic diagram of narrow-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception; the beam configuration parameters corresponding to different configuration schemes are different, for example, the configuration scheme is wide-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, the initial coverage in the horizontal direction is by a wide beam, the transmission power of a single wide beam is low, and the number of beams in the horizontal direction is less than or equal to 3; the configuration scheme is narrow-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, the initial coverage in the horizontal direction is by a narrow beam, the transmission power of a single narrow beam is high, and the number of beams in the horizontal direction is greater than or equal to 4.

[0066] In the embodiments of the present application, the implementation method of step S201 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and here it is not limited, and will not be repeated.

[0067] S202, transmitting a first signal through a first beam and receiving a corresponding echo signal of the first signal.

[0068] In some embodiments, the receiving state of the receiver in the network device can also be monitored; that is, the receiver in the base station is used to receive the echo signal, in order to avoid the saturation or blocking of the receiver causing the reception to fail, the receiving state of the receiver in the network device is monitored in real time, and the receiving state includes the abnormal state of the saturation or blocking of the receiver and the normal state of the normal reception.

[0069] In response to the receiving state indicating that the receiver is abnormal, the beam position of the first beam corresponding to the receiving abnormality is determined; it can be understood that when the receiving state indicates that the receiver is abnormal, the echo signal cannot be continuously received, and then the beam position of the corresponding first beam can be determined according to the azimuth angle of the current echo signal that cannot be received.

[0070] Further, the signal reception power of the beam position is reduced until the receiving state of the receiver is normal; optionally, in the present embodiment, the adjustment of the signal reception power is performed at an interval of 3dBm-5dBm, the echo signal is received based on the adjusted signal reception power, and it is determined whether the current receiving state of the receiver is normal, if it is still not normal, the adjustment of the signal reception power is continued until the receiving state of the receiver is normal.

[0071] In some embodiments, for the configuration scheme of narrow-beam transmission and narrow-beam reception, the receiver still has the saturation or blocking phenomenon when the signal reception power is adjusted to the minimum, that is, when the adjusted signal reception power is less than or equal to the preset threshold and the receiver is still abnormal, the transmission power of the first signal is reduced until the receiving state of the receiver is normal.

[0072] Optionally, the first signal transmission power can be reduced at intervals of 3dBm-5dBm until the receiver state is normal and no longer continues to adjust, or reaches a stop condition and no longer continues to adjust, and the first signal transmission power adjustment is BP1 in the embodiment, BP1 is used to specify a specific stable operating point, for example, the transmission power is reduced to the minimum value that can be stably maintained, and the echo signal of the received first signal is stopped when the receiver state is normal.

[0073] In the embodiment of the application, the implementation method of step S202 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited herein and will not be described again.

[0074] S203, based on the signal characteristics of the echo signal, the echo signal is screened to determine the target signal in the echo signal.

[0075] In some embodiments, the frequency domain Doppler characteristics of the echo signal can be obtained, and the echo signal whose frequency domain Doppler characteristics meet the first set condition is determined as a candidate signal; optionally, the echo signal can be transmitted to the building baseband unit (BBU) through the interface by the receiver for signal processing, the frequency domain Doppler characteristics of the echo signal are extracted based on the BBU, and the echo signal with zero Doppler characteristics is determined as the echo signal meeting the first set condition, that is, the echo signal with zero Doppler characteristics is the candidate signal.

[0076] Further, the power of each candidate signal is obtained, and the candidate signal whose power meets the second preset condition is determined as the target signal; in the embodiment, whether the second preset condition is met is determined by the preset static clutter identification threshold TH0, if the power of the candidate signal is less than TH0, it indicates that there is no building in the current beam coverage range, and no processing is needed; otherwise, if the power of the candidate signal is greater than or equal to TH0, it indicates that there is a building in the current beam coverage range, and static clutter suppression and elimination processing is needed, and the candidate signal whose power is greater than or equal to TH0 is recorded as the target signal.

[0077] S204, determining the building information according to the target signal.

[0078] Optionally, the signal identification of the target signal can be obtained; in the embodiment, the signal identification refers to the serial number mark of each echo signal when the echo signal is received, and the serial number of the echo signal is determined as the signal identification according to the receiving order of the echo signal. After the echo signal is screened by Doppler characteristics and power, the screened target signal is obtained, and the signal identification of the screened target signal can be completely continuous or not completely continuous.

[0079] Optionally, the number of buildings can be determined according to the continuity of the signal identifiers, and the building information at least includes the number of buildings; in response to the continuity of the signal identifiers of the target signal, it is determined that there is one building; in response to the partial continuity of the signal identifiers, the continuous signal identifiers are divided into a plurality of continuous groups, and the number of the continuous groups is the number of buildings, for example, the signal identifiers are {4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 14}, the continuous groups are [4, 5, 6] and [12, 13, 14], and the number of buildings is 2.

[0080] Optionally, the receiving time of the target signal in each continuous group can also be obtained; the distance between the network device and the building corresponding to each continuous group can be determined according to the time difference between the sending time of the first signal and the receiving time corresponding to each continuous group; wherein the receiving time corresponding to each continuous group can be the receiving time of any echo signal in the group, or a characteristic value such as the minimum or maximum value of the receiving time of the echo signals in the group, the distance between the network device and the building is determined according to the signal sending speed and the transmission time, and the building information further includes the distance between the network device and each building.

[0081] S205, updating the first beam according to the building information to obtain a target beam.

[0082] In the embodiments of the present application, the implementation method of step S205 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited here and will not be repeated.

[0083] S206, determining the contour information of the building according to the target beam.

[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, the implementation method of step S206 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited here and will not be repeated.

[0085] In the embodiments, the beam configuration information is obtained by the network management side, including two schemes of wide transmission and narrow reception and narrow transmission and narrow reception, different first beams are generated according to different beam configuration information, the first signal is transmitted through the first beam, and when the receiver receives the echo signal of the first signal, it is determined whether the receiver is saturated or blocked, so as to perform transmission and reception beam power adjustment, the beam level self-loop power adjustment greatly reduces the missed area, improves the equipment detection rate, when the receiver is adjusted to be normal, all echo signals are received and analyzed and screened, the target signal is obtained, and then the continuity and receiving time of the target signal are determined to determine the number of buildings and the distance between the buildings and the network device, accurate and comprehensive building information is obtained, the first beam is adjusted according to the building information, the contour information is estimated based on the adjusted target beam, the accuracy of building contour estimation is improved, the area of the removed region is reduced, and the false alarm and missed detection probability is reduced.

[0086] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 3 A flowchart of an environment perception method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1. As shown in the figure, the method comprises the following steps: Figure 3

[0087] S301, generating a first beam.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present application, the implementation method of step S301 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited herein and will not be repeated.

[0089] S302, sending a first signal through the first beam and receiving an echo signal corresponding to the first signal.

[0090] In the embodiment of the present application, the implementation method of step S302 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited herein and will not be repeated.

[0091] S303, determining building information in the coverage range of the first beam according to the echo signal.

[0092] In the embodiment of the present application, the implementation method of step S303 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited herein and will not be repeated.

[0093] S304, determining a target update scheme corresponding to the first beam from the candidate update schemes according to the distance.

[0094] The target update scheme includes updating the beam width and the number of beams; in this embodiment, the distance is divided into near, middle-far and far according to certain rules, for example, the distance within 500 meters is near, the distance from 500 meters to 1000 meters is middle-far, and the distance above 1000 meters is far. In other embodiments, the distance division method can be different, which is not limited in detail; the corresponding target update scheme is determined according to the near, middle-far or far.

[0095] It can be understood that when there are multiple buildings in the coverage range of the first beam, the distance between each building and the network device can be different, so in the analysis process of estimating the building profile, the embodiment analyzes each building, that is, determines the target update scheme according to the distance between each building and the network device, and determines the target beam for the current building according to the target update scheme, to accurately estimate the profile of each building.

[0096] Optionally, the candidate update scheme in the embodiment is shown in the following table:

[0097] Table 1​

[0098] Beam width Number of beams Candidate update schemes A B Near-end A / 2 2*B Mid-far-end A / 3 3*B Far-end A / 4 4*B

[0099] Wherein, A is the original beam width, B is the original beam number, when the target update scheme is near-end corresponding determination, the beam width is adjusted to 1 / 2 of the original beam width, and the beam number is adjusted to 2 times of the original beam number; when the target update scheme is near-end corresponding determination, the beam width is adjusted to 1 / 3 of the original beam width, and the beam number is adjusted to 3 times of the original beam number; when the target update scheme is far-end corresponding determination, the beam width is adjusted to 1 / 4 of the original beam width, and the beam number is adjusted to 4 times of the original beam number.

[0100] S305, updating the first beam based on the target update scheme to obtain a target beam.

[0101] In some embodiments, the first beam can be updated at least once based on the target update scheme to obtain a second beam; for example, the first beam is updated based on the target update scheme to determine the second beam, and it is judged whether the second beam meets the accuracy condition to determine whether the second beam is the target beam.

[0102] Optionally, the accuracy value can be determined according to the distance and the beam width of the current second beam; in response to the accuracy value being less than or equal to a preset accuracy threshold, it is determined that the current second beam meets the accuracy requirement; specifically, it can be expressed as: f(Tan(A')*H)≤x, wherein A' is the beam width of the current second beam, H is the distance between the current analyzed building and the network device, f(Tan(A')*H) is the accuracy value, and x is the preset accuracy threshold, that is, when the adjusted second beam meets the above inequality, the second beam meets the accuracy requirement, and the second beam is determined as the target beam.

[0103] It can be understood that if the second beam does not meet the accuracy requirement, the current obtained second beam is updated based on the target update scheme, that is, the beam width and the beam number of the second beam are continuously adjusted until the updated beam meets the accuracy requirement, and the beam meeting the accuracy requirement is determined as the target beam. In this embodiment, the finally obtained target beam is an extremely narrow beam with reduced beam width, as shown in FIG. 4, the building building corresponds to the obstacle beam, and the rest is the non-obstacle beam. The beam width is adjusted until the target beam corresponding to the building building is determined, that is, the extremely narrow beam. Figure 3A

[0104] S306, determining the contour information of the building according to the target beam.

[0105] ​Optionally, the edge beam set can be determined from the target beam; in this embodiment, the edge beam set is the two most edge beams in the beam set of the target beam, wherein the beam with a negative beam direction is recorded as the first edge beam, and the beam with a positive beam direction is recorded as the second edge beam.

[0106] Further, the edge contour feature points of the building can be determined according to the edge beam set, specifically, the first edge point coordinates are calculated according to the first edge beam, the second edge point coordinates are calculated according to the second edge beam, and then the third edge point coordinates are calculated according to the first edge point and the second edge point, the third edge point being the midpoint of the first edge point and the second edge point, as shown in the following figure: Figure 3B wherein the first edge point, the second edge point and the third edge point correspond to the first edge point, the second edge point and the third edge point respectively, to form the edge contour feature points, and then the contour information of the building is constructed based on the edge contour feature points.

[0107] In some embodiments, the first edge beam and the second edge beam are determined, which essentially determines the first beam angle of the first edge beam and the second beam angle of the second edge beam, so as to determine the corresponding first edge point coordinates and the second edge point coordinates, and for any edge point, the calculation method of the coordinates is as follows:

[0108]

[0109] z = H * cos theta

[0110] wherein H is the distance between the building and the network device, (x, y, z) is the edge point coordinates, and theta is the edge beam angle.

[0111] In this embodiment, the implementation method of step S306 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited herein and will not be described again.

[0112] In this embodiment, when the building information is acquired and the first beam is adjusted according to the building information, the beam width and the beam number are adjusted according to the distance between the building and the base station, the power consumption of the sensing-integrated base station is reduced, the resource utilization is improved, whether the precision condition is met is judged based on the adjusted beam and distance, and the iteration update of the first beam is stopped when the precision condition is met, the target beam is obtained, the edge beam in the target beam is determined, and the edge point of the building is estimated according to the edge beam to obtain the first edge point, the second edge point and the third edge point. The efficiency and precision of the building contour sensing are improved, and the problem of inaccurate building estimation is solved.

[0126] S407, determining the contour information of the building according to the target beam. ​

[0127] In the embodiments of the present application, the implementation method of step S407 can be implemented by any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and here it is not limited, and will not be repeated.

[0128] Based on the steps S401-S407, it is assumed that in the currently deployed omnidirectional base station, a beam configuration scheme of 16 narrow beam transmission and 16 narrow beam reception is used in the horizontal direction; wherein the transmission power of the base station is 55dBm, and the antenna gain is 25dBi; there is a 10-story medium-sized office building about 500 meters away from the base station, and the Radar Cross-Section (RCS) thereof is about 40dBsm. If no beam adjustment is performed, the received power of the echo signal reaching the receiver RF front end can be calculated as -0.2dBm (transmission power + transmission antenna gain + reception antenna gain + RCS - path loss), which is too high to cause receiver blocking, and even burn out the receiver.

[0129] Based on the environmental perception method of the present embodiment, it is determined that the current beam configuration scheme is narrow transmission and narrow reception, and the first signal power is determined as the default value minus 20dBm, i.e. 55dBm-20dBm=35dBm.

[0130] The building echo power is calculated as -22.0dBm. At this time, because the transmission power has been adjusted, the receiver will not be burned out but still saturated, so it is necessary to reduce the reception beam power, adjust 10dBm, and then judge until the receiver is no longer saturated.

[0131] After the receiver is in a normal state, all echo signals are received and analyzed by the BBU for Doppler characteristics, and the echo signals corresponding to zero Doppler characteristics are retained.

[0132] The power of each retained echo signal is calculated, and the beams with power greater than the static clutter recognition threshold are retained to obtain the target signal.

[0133] According to the continuous situation of the signal identification of the target signal, the number of buildings existing in the first beam coverage range and the distance between each building and the network device are determined to obtain the building information.

[0134] The first beam is updated according to the distance between the building and the network device, for example, the distance between the building and the network device at this time is 500m, which belongs to the near end, so the beam width is adjusted to A / 2, the number of beams is changed from 2 to 4, and whether the updated beam meets the accuracy requirement is determined until the target beam is obtained, the first edge beam and the second edge beam in the target beam are determined, and specifically, the first beam angle of the first edge beam and the second beam angle of the second edge beam are determined.

[0135] Further, the first edge point and the second edge point are determined according to the first edge beam and the second edge beam, and after the first edge point and the second edge point are determined, the third edge point coordinates are determined according to the midpoint position, so as to perform building contour estimation.

[0136] In the embodiment, the beam configuration information is obtained through the network management side, different first beams are generated according to different beam configuration information, when the receiver receives the echo signal of the first signal, it is determined whether the receiver is saturated or blocked, so as to adjust the transmit and receive beam power until the receiver normally receives the echo signal, the beam level self-loop power adjustment greatly reduces the missed area, the echo signal is analyzed and screened to obtain the target signal, the continuity of the target signal and the receiving time are determined to determine the number of buildings and the distance between the buildings and the network equipment, accurate and comprehensive building information is obtained, the beam width and the number of beams are adjusted according to the distance between the building and the base station, the power consumption of the sensing integrated base station is reduced, the resource utilization is improved, whether the precision condition is met is determined based on the adjusted beam and distance, the target beam is obtained, the edge point of the building is estimated according to the edge beam in the target beam, the contour information of the building is obtained, the efficiency and accuracy of building contour perception are improved, and the problem of inaccurate building estimation is solved.

[0137] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, Figure 5 The application logic diagram of the environment perception method provided by the embodiment of the application is that the environment learning module of the sensing base station is started, that is, the environment perception is started, the initial power of the pulse verification signal (the first signal) is determined according to whether the beam configuration scheme is a narrow beam transmission, the echo signal of the first signal is received and it is determined whether the receiver is blocked, if the receiver is blocked, the receiving power is adjusted, when the receiving power of the beam is adjusted, if the scheme is a narrow beam transmission, when the adjusted receiving power cannot meet the normal receiving of the receiver, the verification signal transmitting power is continuously reduced until the receiver can normally receive the echo signal, through the flexible adjustment of the transmitting and receiving beam power, the missed area is greatly reduced, and the equipment detection rate is improved; when there is no blocking or saturation of the receiver, the environment reconstruction and disposal module is entered, that is, the screening of the echo signal is performed, the target signal is determined, the building information is obtained according to the target signal, the first beam is updated according to the building information, the target beam is determined, and finally the process of building contour estimation based on the edge beam in the target beam is performed until the building contour estimation is completed, so as to notify the network management side that the current environment perception learning is completed, and the accuracy of environment perception is improved.
