[0055] For ease of understanding, some of the contents involved in the embodiments of this application are described below:
[0056] 1. Integrated Sensing And Communication (ISAC)
[0057] Communication and perception integration, also known as interawareness integration, is expected to provide a variety of high-precision sensing services in future Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) and 6G wireless communication systems, such as indoor positioning for robot navigation, Wi-Fi sensing for smart homes, and radar sensing for autonomous vehicles. Sensing and communication systems are typically designed separately and occupy different frequency bands. ISAC enables sensing and communication systems to share the same frequency band and hardware, improving frequency efficiency and reducing hardware costs. ISAC will become a key technology in future wireless communication systems, supporting many important application scenarios. Typical applications of ISAC include navigation and obstacle avoidance for autonomous vehicles, Wi-Fi-based indoor positioning and activity recognition, communication and sensing for unmanned aerial vehicles, extended reality (XR), and radar and communication integration. Each application has different requirements, limitations, and regulatory issues.
[0058] ISAC achieves low-cost, integrated communication and perception capabilities through shared hardware and software-defined functions. Its key features include: a unified and simplified architecture; reconfigurable and scalable functions; and improved efficiency and reduced costs. The advantages of integrated communication and perception are threefold: reduced equipment cost and size; improved spectrum utilization; and enhanced system performance.
[0059] Currently, typical communication and perception integration scenarios that are expected to be achieved through technical upgrades based on the 5G communication system architecture are shown in Table 1 below.
[0060] Table 1:
[0061] 2. Resource overhead in the integration of communication and synaesthesia.
[0062] In communication systems, especially in Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) scenarios, each port requires a corresponding reference signal configuration. As the number of ports increases, the time-frequency resource overhead of the reference signal also increases. Figure 2 shows an example of a 32-port Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) configuration. The time-frequency resource overhead of the CSI-RS is already quite large. Furthermore, with the evolution of communication systems, in massive MIMO (mMIMO) and extremely large-scale MIMO (el-MIMO) scenarios, the time-frequency resource overhead required for CSI-RS will further increase, resulting in a decrease in MIMO system gain. Therefore, minimizing the time-frequency resource overhead of the reference signal while ensuring channel measurement is a very important issue.
[0063] Furthermore, in integrated sensory services, achieving high-performance sensing of distance, speed, and angle requires significant signal resource overhead. First, the resolution of distance sensing depends on the bandwidth of the sensing signal, typically requiring a bandwidth of hundreds of MHz or higher. Second, the resolution of speed sensing depends on the duration of the sensing signal, typically requiring a duration of tens of milliseconds or higher. Finally, the resolution of angle sensing depends on the antenna aperture, requiring a larger antenna aperture for high-resolution angle measurement.
[0064] If the sensing signal is uniformly distributed within the required bandwidth, duration, and antenna aperture using traditional methods, the resource overhead in the time, frequency, and spatial domains of the sensing signal will be relatively large. Therefore, how to minimize the resource overhead in the time, frequency, and spatial domains of the sensing signal while meeting the sensing requirements is also a key issue in the integration of synaesthesia.
[0065] 3. Compressed sensing.
[0066] Compressed sensing, also known as compressed sampling or sparse sampling, is a new sampling theory that exploits the sparse nature of signals. It uses random sampling to obtain discrete samples of the signal at a rate less than the Nyquist sampling rate, and then reconstructs the signal using a nonlinear reconstruction algorithm. Therefore, compressed sampling can reduce the data sampling rate, thereby reducing the amount of data and the need for high-speed sampling.
[0067] Suppose \(x\) represents a one-dimensional signal of length \(N\), which is the original signal. Its signal \(s\) in the transform domain is a \(K\)-sparse signal, that is, the number of sample points with significant values in \(s\) is no more than \(K\); \(\Psi\) is a sparse matrix that transforms the signal \(s\) into \(x\); \(\Phi\) is an observation matrix, corresponding to the subsampling process, which projects the high-dimensional signal \(x\) onto a low-dimensional space to obtain the subsampled signal \(y = \Phi\Psi s\). Usually, \(\Psi\) and \(\Phi\) are combined into a matrix, denoted as \(\Theta=\Phi\Psi\), which is called the sensing matrix.
[0068] The length of the subsampled signal \(y\) is \(M\), and \(M < N\). Under traditional Nyquist sampling, the output signal is \(x\); while under compressive sampling, the output signal is \(y\); due to \(M < N\), the sampling rate is reduced.
[0069] When compressive sensing is combined with integrated communication and sensing, at least one of the following situations occurs for \(x\), \(y\), and \(s\):
[0070] \(x\) and \(y\) are frequency-dimensional signals, and \(s\) is a time-delay-dimensional signal;
[0071] \(x\) and \(y\) are slow-time-dimensional signals, and \(s\) is a Doppler-dimensional signal;
[0072] \(x\) and \(y\) are signals of each antenna element or antenna port in the horizontal direction of the antenna array, and \(s\) is an azimuth-angle-dimensional signal;
[0073] \(x\) and \(y\) are signals of each antenna element or antenna port in the vertical direction of the antenna array, and \(s\) is an elevation-angle-dimensional signal.
[0074] In order to reconstruct the signal \(x\) or \(s\) before compression from the compressed signal \(y\), there are the following two conditions:
[0075] Sparsity: \(x\) or the transform-domain signal \(s\) of \(x\) has sparsity, that is, the number of sample points with significant values is no more than \(K\);
[0076] Incoherence: The bases (columns of the matrix) of the observation matrix \(\Phi\) and the bases (columns of the matrix) of the sparse matrix \(\Psi\) are uncorrelated.
[0077] In a communication channel or a sensing channel of integrated communication and sensing, the sparsity condition is usually satisfied. Typical observation matrices and sparse matrices that satisfy incoherence are:
[0078] Observation matrix: Random Gaussian matrix, random Bernoulli matrix, partial orthogonal matrix, random sparse matrix, Toeplitz and circulant matrix, permutation matrix, Hadamard matrix;
[0079] Sparse matrix: Discrete Fourier transform matrix, discrete cosine transform matrix, wavelet transform matrix, etc.
[0080] Next, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the signal configuration adaptive processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail through some embodiments and their application scenarios.
[0081] 3 , an embodiment of the present application provides a signal configuration adaptive processing method. As shown in FIG3 , the signal configuration adaptive processing method includes:
[0082] Step 301: The first device obtains a target indicator of a target signal;
[0083] Step 302: The first device sends first information to the second device, where the first information is used to indicate at least one of a target resource pattern and whether to update the resource pattern of the target signal, and the target resource pattern is the updated resource pattern of the target signal.
[0084] In which, the first information is determined based on the target indicator, and the target indicator includes a first indicator, and the first indicator is used to indicate the sparse characteristics of the power distribution of the target signal in the first domain, and the first domain includes at least one of the delay domain, the Doppler domain and the angle domain; the resource pattern is used to represent the signal resources actually occupied by the target signal in the resource grid; the resource grid includes a group of signal resources in the second domain, and the second domain includes at least one of the time domain, the frequency domain and the space domain.
[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, the target signal may be any of the following:
[0086] Communication signals may be communication signals in 5G NR and its evolved versions, or communication signals in Wi-Fi, such as reference signals, data signals, and synchronization signals; wherein the reference signals may be CSI-RS, dedicated demodulation reference signals (DM-RS), phase tracking reference signals (PTRS), sounding reference signals (SRS), or positioning reference signals (PRS). The synchronization signals may include a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) or a primary synchronization signal (PSS).
[0087] A perception signal may be a signal newly designed for the perception function in 5G NR and its evolved versions or Wi-Fi, for example, a perception reference signal;
[0088] Communication and perception integrated signals refer to signals that can be used for both communication and perception. They can be newly designed in 5G NR and its evolved versions or Wi-Fi, or upgraded based on signals in related technologies as communication and perception integrated signals.
[0089] It should be understood that the first and second domains are related, wherein the angle domain and the spatial domain are a pair of transform domains. The spatial domain signal can be transformed into the angle domain signal through the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The signal configuration is in the spatial domain (corresponding to the antenna element or antenna port), and the sparse characteristics of the target signal are in the angle domain. Similarly, the delay domain and the frequency domain are a pair of transform domains. The frequency domain signal can be transformed into the delay domain signal through the Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT). The signal configuration is in the frequency domain, and the sparse characteristics of the target signal are in the delay domain. Similarly, the Doppler domain and the slow time domain (or the slow time domain can also be simply referred to as the time domain) are a pair of transform domains. The slow time domain signal can be transformed into the Doppler domain through the FFT. The signal configuration is in the slow time domain, and the sparse characteristics of the target signal are in the Doppler domain.
[0090] It should be noted that the target signal transmitting device is not necessarily the second device. For example, in a communication system application, the target signal transmitting device is generally the second device, while in a synaesthesia integration application, the target signal transmitting device may or may not be the second device.
[0091] Optionally, the specific device types of the first device and the second device may be set according to actual needs. For example, in some embodiments, the first device and the second device may include any of the following:
[0092] Case 1: The first device is a terminal, and the second device is an access network device or a core network device (such as a perception function network element);
[0093] Case 2: the first device is terminal 1 and the second device is terminal 2;
[0094] Case 3: The first device is an access network device, and the second device is a core network device;
[0095] Case 4: the first device is access network device 1, and the second device is access network device 2.
[0096] Optionally, some of the above situations (such as situation 1) are applicable to communication scenarios, and all of the situations are applicable to synaesthesia scenarios.
[0097] It should be understood that the resource pattern of the target signal can be understood as the configuration of time, frequency, and spatial resources, or as a partial configuration of time, frequency, and spatial resources. Since the first information is sent to the second device based on the target indicator of the target signal, the resource pattern of the target signal can be updated through the first information. This can fully utilize the sparsity of the channel, thereby minimizing resource overhead. At the same time, it can avoid measurement distortion and the inability to fully reconstruct the fully sampled signal, thereby improving the accuracy of channel measurement or perception performance.
[0098] In an embodiment of the present application, a target indicator of a target signal is obtained by a first device; the first device sends a first information to a second device, the first information being used to indicate at least one of a target resource pattern and whether to update the resource pattern of the target signal, the target resource pattern being the resource pattern after the target signal is updated; wherein the first information is determined based on the target indicator, the target indicator including a first indicator, the first indicator being used to indicate the sparse characteristics of the power distribution of the target signal in the first domain, the first domain including at least one of the delay domain, the Doppler domain, and the angle domain; the resource pattern being used to represent the signal resources actually occupied by the target signal in the resource grid; the resource grid including a set of signal resources in the second domain, the second domain including at least one of the time domain, the frequency domain, and the spatial domain. In this way, the sparsity of the channel can be fully utilized to adaptively determine the resource pattern of the target signal, thereby reducing resource overhead as much as possible.

The probability of a specific result in the random experiment may be the probability of "1" appearing in the random experiment; and the second preset threshold may be understood as a threshold for determining a random number.
[0132] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second configuration information may pre-configure identifiers (IDentities, IDs) of multiple candidate parameters of the candidate second mapping function. In this case, the target information value may indicate the ID of a candidate parameter among the pre-configured multiple candidate parameters. For example, the target information value may indicate the ID of a random number seed among the pre-configured multiple random number seeds. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the target information value may directly indicate a specific value of the corresponding parameter, for example, a specific value of a random number seed.
[0133] Optionally, in some embodiments, before the first device acquires the target indicator of the target signal, the method includes:

[0135] The method for the first device to obtain the first preset threshold includes at least one of the following: the first device receives a configuration related to the first preset threshold from the second device, and the protocol stipulates the configuration related to the first preset threshold.
[0136] In an embodiment of the present application, the manner in which the first device may obtain the measurement result of the target signal may include: the first device measures the target signal to obtain the measurement result; or, the first device obtains the measurement result of the target signal from a receiving device of the target signal.
[0137] Optionally, after obtaining a measurement result by transforming the target signal into the first domain, a first preset threshold may be used to determine the first indicator. The first preset threshold may include at least one of the following:
[0138] Fixed thresholds: A set of fixed thresholds is configured by the network side device through signaling. The set of fixed thresholds may include one or more thresholds.
[0139] The adaptive threshold is an adaptive threshold calculated by a preset algorithm according to preset parameters configured by the network side device. The value of the adaptive threshold is related to at least one of the interference and noise levels in the received target signal.
[0140] The preset algorithm may be a constant false alarm detection algorithm, and the preset parameter may be a false alarm rate configured by a network-side device.
[0141] Optionally, the first indicator may be the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold, or a value obtained by mapping the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold and reflecting the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold. For example, if the value range of the sample points is divided into several intervals, each interval corresponding to an ID, the first indicator may be the ID.
[0142] For example, after the target signal is transformed from the frequency domain to the delay domain by the Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT), there are 100 sample points in the delay domain. If 15 sample points exceed the threshold, the first indicator can be directly 15; or, 0 to 100 are divided into several intervals, and the interval number of the sample point exceeding the threshold is used as the first indicator.
[0143] Optionally, in some embodiments, the target indicator further includes a second indicator, and the second indicator is used to indicate the signal quality of the target signal.
[0144] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second indicator includes at least one of the following: reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), received signal strength indication (RSSI), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), signal-to-noise and interference ratio (SINR), perceived signal amplitude, perceived signal power, perceived SNR, perceived SINR, perceived signal power indication and perceived signal quality indication.
[0145] In the embodiments of the present application, the aforementioned SNR refers to the signal-to-noise power ratio of the signal in the time-frequency domain, and the aforementioned perceived SNR refers to the signal-to-noise power ratio of the target sub-signal in the target signal after it is transformed into at least one of the delay domain, Doppler domain, and angle domain. Similarly, the aforementioned perceived SINR refers to the signal-to-interference-to-noise power ratio of the target sub-signal after it is transformed into at least one of the delay domain, Doppler domain, and angle domain. The target sub-signal corresponds to a signal component of a specific path, cluster, perceived object, or scatterer in the environment.
[0146] Optionally, the above-mentioned perceived signal power indication refers to the ratio of the power of the target sub-signal to the total signal power in at least one of the delay domain, the Doppler domain and the angle domain.

It is similar to the channel quality indicator (CQI). Unlike the CQI, the calculation of the perceived signal quality indicator introduces signal quality indicators in the delay domain, Doppler domain and angle domain.
[0148] It should be noted that, when the above-mentioned target indicator only includes the first indicator, the above-mentioned target information value can be directly the first indicator.
[0149] Optionally, in some embodiments, before the first device acquires the target indicator of the target signal, the method further includes:
[0150] The first device obtains at least one of the first configuration information and the second configuration information;
[0151] Among them, the method for the first device to obtain at least one of the first configuration information and the second configuration information includes at least one of the following: the first device receives at least part of the information of at least one of the first configuration information and the second configuration information from the second device, and the protocol stipulates at least part of the information of at least one of the first configuration information and the second configuration information; the first configuration information is used to determine the signal resources in the resource grid; the second configuration information is used to indicate a set of candidate resource patterns; the target resource pattern is included in the set of candidate resource patterns.

In some embodiments, the resource grid includes at least one of the frequency domain resource grid, the time domain resource grid, and the space domain resource grid.
[0153] In an embodiment of the present application, the frequency domain resource grid may be a group of subcarriers determined based on performance requirements for channel estimation, or a group of subcarriers determined based on at least one of requirements for resolution performance and maximum unambiguous measurement range performance for delay measurement. This group of subcarriers constitutes the frequency domain resource grid and can be allocated to a target signal. The specific subcarriers occupied by the target signal are determined by the target resource pattern. The unoccupied portion of the group of subcarriers determined based on the target resource pattern represents the frequency resources saved according to the solution of the present application.
[0154] Optionally, taking the configuration of CSI-RS in NR as an example, for a given bandwidth part (Bandwidth Part, BWP) configuration, the frequency domain resource grid can be determined by parameters such as startingRB, nrofRB, frequencyDomainAllocation, and density.
[0155] Optionally, the time domain resource grid can be a set of OFDM symbols determined based on performance requirements for channel estimation, or a set of OFDM symbols determined based on at least one of requirements for Doppler measurement resolution performance and maximum unambiguous measurement range performance.

[0156] Taking the configuration of CSI-RS in NR as an example, the time domain resource grid can be determined by parameters such as firstOFDMSymbolInTimeDomain, firstOFDMSymbolInTimeDomain2, CSI-ResourcePeriodicityAndOffset, etc.
[0157] The spatial domain resource grid can be a set of antenna ports or antenna elements determined based on performance requirements for channel estimation, beamforming, etc., or a set of antenna ports or antenna elements determined based on at least one of requirements for angular resolution performance and maximum unambiguous measurement range performance. This set of antenna ports or antenna elements constitutes the spatial domain resource grid and can be allocated to target signals. The specific portion of the set of antenna ports or antenna elements occupied by the target signal is determined by a target resource pattern. The unoccupied portion of the set of antenna ports or antenna elements, determined based on the target resource pattern, is the spatial domain resource saved according to the solution of the present application.
[0158] Taking the NR-based configuration as an example, the spatial domain resource grid can be determined by the parameters [Mg, Ng, M, N, P].
[0159] The embodiments of the present application adaptively determine a target resource pattern based on target information values. The target resource pattern selects some resources from the resource grid for ultimate resource allocation of the target signal, while the unselected resources in the resource grid represent the saved resource overhead. This significantly reduces resource overhead in at least one of the time, frequency, and spatial domains, while still meeting the performance requirements for at least one of channel estimation and beamforming, or at least one of delay, Doppler, and angle measurement.
[0160] Optionally, the resource grid may be configured using a configuration method for signals in NR and its evolved versions or Wi-Fi (for example, reference signals such as CSI-RS and DMRS); or may be configured using other configuration methods including at least one of the following parameters:

[0178] Spacing between target antenna ports or antenna elements (including at least one of horizontal and vertical directions);
[0179] The number of target antenna ports or antenna elements (including at least one of the horizontal and vertical directions);
[0180] Density of target antenna ports or antenna elements (including at least one of the horizontal and vertical directions);
[0181] The position distribution of the target antenna ports or antenna units on the antenna panel (including at least one of the horizontal and vertical directions).
[0182] It should be understood that the above-mentioned target OFDM symbol refers to the OFDM symbol in the time domain resource grid; the above-mentioned target subcarrier refers to the subcarrier in the frequency domain resource grid; the above-mentioned target antenna port refers to the antenna port in the space domain resource grid; and the above-mentioned antenna unit refers to the antenna unit in the space domain resource grid.
[0183] Optionally, in some embodiments, the target resource pattern actually occupied by the target signal in the resource grid can be indicated by a target pattern sequence. The target pattern sequence can be a sequence of 0 and 1. If the element in the sequence is '1', it means that the signal resources in the corresponding resource grid are allocated to the target signal. If the element in the sequence is '0', it means that the signal resources in the corresponding grid are not allocated to the target signal.
[0184] Optionally, the second configuration information includes: at least one of a second mapping table and a related configuration of a second mapping function;
[0185] The relevant configuration of the second mapping function is used to generate a first pattern sequence; the second mapping table includes multiple candidate information values and multiple second pattern sequences, and the candidate information values and the second pattern sequences are mapped one-to-one, the candidate information value is used to indicate the candidate resource pattern after the resource pattern of the target signal in the second domain is updated, and the target information value is included in the multiple candidate information values; at least part of the first pattern sequence and the second pattern sequence is used to determine the candidate resource pattern.
[0186] Optionally, the configuration related to the second mapping function includes at least one of the following:
[0187] a type or a list of types of at least one candidate second mapping function;
[0188] at least one set of candidate parameters for at least one candidate second mapping function;
[0189] a method for obtaining at least one set of candidate parameters of at least one candidate second mapping function;
[0190] In which, the candidate parameters are used to cooperate with the candidate second mapping function to determine the first pattern sequence, the target second mapping function indicated by the label information value is included in the at least one candidate second function, and the target parameter of the target second mapping function indicated by the label information value is included in the at least one group of candidate parameters.
[0191] Optionally, a method for obtaining at least one set of candidate parameters of the candidate second mapping function includes:
[0192] The at least one set of candidate parameters is determined based on at least one of the following parameters: device identification; perception area identification; identification of whether to be used for perception; perception target identification; perception measurement quantity identification; codeword index; information related to time domain resources; information related to frequency domain resources and information related to space domain resources.
[0193] Optionally, the parameter type of at least one of the target parameter and the candidate parameters includes at least one of a random number seed, a probability of a specific result in a random experiment, a mean of a random experiment result, a variance of a random experiment result, and a second preset threshold.
[0194] Optionally, a function type of at least one of the target second mapping function and the candidate second mapping function includes a random Bernoulli function or a random Gaussian function.
[0195] In an embodiment of the present application, the first pattern sequence can be calculated by inputting the target information value into the candidate second mapping function. The parameters that need to be pre-configured in this case may include the candidate second mapping function and candidate parameters other than the target information value and the resource grid (e.g., the length of the resource grid) required for the candidate second mapping function to generate the first pattern sequence.
[0196] For example, if the candidate second mapping function is a random Bernoulli function, the generated first pattern sequence can be directly used as the candidate resource pattern sequence. Depending on the meaning of the target information value, the following situations may occur:
[0197] Case 1: The target information value can be the random number seed of the random Bernoulli function. In this case, when the target information value and the resource grid are given, the parameters required are: the probability of "1" appearing in the random Bernoulli trial;
[0198] In case 2, the target information value is the probability of a '1' appearing in a random Bernoulli trial, or the target information value is the number of '1's in the first pattern sequence. The probability of a '1' appearing in a random Bernoulli trial can be determined by the target information value. In this case, when the target information value and the resource grid are given, the parameter required is the random number seed of the random Bernoulli function.
[0199] For example, the candidate second mapping function is a random Gaussian function, and the generated random number is compared with the second preset threshold: the mapping greater than the second preset threshold is '1' in the first pattern sequence, and the mapping less than the second preset threshold is '0' in the first pattern sequence; at this time, the target information value can be the mean, variance (or standard deviation) of the random Gaussian function and one of the second preset threshold, and the required parameters are the other two.
[0200] Optionally, for example, the length of the resource grid is the number of at least one of subcarriers, OFDM symbols, and antenna ports (or antenna elements) in the resource grid configured by the first configuration information.
[0201] Optionally, when the second mapping table is configured, the target pattern sequence can be determined by looking up the second mapping table to obtain a second pattern sequence associated with the target information value. In this case, the candidate information value can be the ID of the second pattern sequence, i.e., the target information value is the ID of the target pattern sequence or the ID of a second pattern sequence.
[0202] Optionally, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned target pattern sequence can be the above-mentioned first pattern sequence or second pattern sequence, or it can be a part of the first pattern sequence or the second pattern sequence intercepted, and the intercepted range can be determined by the following parameters: information related to time domain resources, information related to frequency domain resources, and information related to space domain resources.
[0203] Among them, the information related to time domain resources may include at least one of a wireless frame index, a subframe index, a time slot index, a symbol index, a duration, a time domain density, a cyclic prefix (CP) type, a CP length, and a coherent processing time window index.
[0204] The information related to frequency domain resources may include at least one of a resource element (RE) index, a resource block RB index, frequency point information, frequency band information, bandwidth, frequency domain density, and subcarrier spacing.
[0205] The information related to the spatial domain resources may include at least one of an antenna port index, an antenna unit index, and an antenna panel index.
[0206] It should be noted that, after the second device receives the first information and adopts the recommendation of the terminal, the target pattern sequence can be determined through the following process:
[0207] The second device determines the first pattern sequence according to at least one of the target information value, the resource grid, and the target second mapping function, or the second device determines the second pattern sequence according to at least one of the target information value, the resource grid, and the second mapping table;
[0208] The second device determines a partial sequence in the first pattern sequence or the second pattern sequence as the target pattern sequence, or determines the first pattern sequence or the second pattern sequence as the target pattern sequence.
[0209] Optionally, in some embodiments, after the first device sends the first information to the second device, the method further includes:
[0210] The first device receives third configuration information from the second device;
[0211] The third configuration information is used to indicate whether to update at least one of the resource pattern of the target signal and the target resource pattern, and the target resource pattern is the resource pattern after the resource pattern of the target signal in the second domain is updated.
[0212] Optionally, the third configuration information includes at least one of the following:
[0213] second information, the second information including an identifier of a target second pattern sequence in a second mapping table, or a related configuration of a target second mapping function;
[0214] Confirmation information, where the confirmation information is used to indicate whether to agree to adjust the resource pattern of the target information in the second domain according to the first information reported by the first device;
[0215] In which, the target second mapping function is included in the at least one candidate second mapping function, and the relevant configuration of the second mapping function is used to generate a target first pattern sequence, and the target first pattern sequence is included in at least one first pattern sequence; the second mapping table includes multiple candidate information values and multiple second pattern sequences, and the candidate information values and the second pattern sequences are mapped one by one, the target information value is included in the multiple candidate information values, and the target second pattern sequence is included in the multiple second sequences; at least a portion of the target second pattern sequence or the target first pattern sequence is used to determine the target resource pattern.
[0216] Optionally, the relevant configuration of the target second mapping function includes at least one of the following:
[0217] The type of the target second mapping function;
[0218] the value of the target parameter of the target second mapping function;
[0219] The parameter type of the target parameter includes at least one of a random number seed, a probability of a specific result in a random experiment, a mean of a random experiment result, a variance of a random experiment result, and a second preset threshold.
[0220] In the embodiment of the present application, the target parameter is included in the candidate parameters. The value of the target parameter may include one of the following forms:
[0221] The ID of the target parameter of the target second mapping function among the preconfigured multiple sets of candidate parameters, for example, the ID of a random number seed among the preconfigured multiple random number seeds;
[0222] The specific value of the corresponding parameter, for example, the specific value of a random number seed.
[0223] Optionally, in some embodiments, the target pattern sequence can be uniquely determined by the first information. Therefore, after the first device reports the target information value and target indicator to the second device, the second device only needs to send a confirmation message to the first device to indicate whether the second device agrees to adjust the pattern sequence of the resource pattern according to the first information; optionally, the confirmation information can be a bit or a bit flip.
[0224] It should be understood that the first configuration information is used to configure the resources in the time, frequency, and spatial domains of the resource grid, and the second configuration information is a method for determining a candidate pattern sequence (i.e., the first pattern sequence or the second pattern sequence). The third configuration information is used to indicate a specific target pattern sequence or whether to approve the first information reported by the first device to adjust the resource pattern of the target signal in the second domain.
[0225] For a better understanding of the present application, some specific examples are given below for detailed description.
[0226] In some embodiments, the target information value may be determined based on the first indicator and the second indicator.
[0227] In this embodiment, the smaller the value of the first indicator (for example, it can also be called the sparsity factor), the sparser the signal is in at least one of the delay domain, Doppler domain, and angle domain, that is, the fewer the sample points of the signal in at least one of the delay domain, Doppler domain, and angle domain are greater than the first preset threshold; the larger the value of the second indicator, the better the signal quality.
[0228] As shown in FIG4 , in this embodiment, the following settings are made:
[0229] The possible value range of the first indicator is divided into several intervals (seven intervals are shown in the figure, denoted as S1, S2, ..., S7 from small to large);
[0230] Divide the possible value range of the second indicator into several intervals (7 intervals are shown in the figure, denoted as P1, P2, ..., P7 from small to large);
[0231] The target information value is used to indicate the amount of resources occupied by the target signal in the time domain, frequency domain, and space domain. It can take several pre-set values (as shown in the figure, it can take 7 values, represented as M1, M2, ..., M7 from small to large)
[0232] According to the above settings, the mapping relationship between the first indicator and the second indicator and the target value has the following principles:
[0233] When the second indicator takes the minimum value (i.e., the signal quality is very poor), no matter what the value of the first indicator is, the target information value can only take the maximum value;
[0234] When the first indicator takes the maximum value (i.e., the signal sparsity is low), the target information value can only take the maximum value regardless of the value of the second indicator;
[0235] Under the constraints of the first two items, given the value of the second indicator, the larger the value of the first indicator, the larger the value of the target information value;
[0236] Under the constraints of the first two items, given the value of the first indicator, the larger the value of the second indicator, the smaller the value of the target information value.
[0237] According to the above principles, after the first indicator and the second indicator are determined, the target information value can be determined by looking up a table.
[0238] The mapping relationship between the first indicator and the second indicator and the target information value shown in FIG4 can also be represented in the form of a mapping function, which will not be described in detail here.
[0239] In some embodiments, the target information value may be determined based on the first indicator.
[0240] In this embodiment, the target information value is determined only by the first indicator (eg, also referred to as a sparse factor).
[0241] As shown in FIG5 , in this embodiment, the following settings are made:
[0242] The possible value range of the first indicator is divided into several intervals (seven intervals are shown in the figure, denoted as S1, S2, ..., S7 from small to large);
[0243] The target information value is used to indicate the amount of resources occupied by the target signal in the time domain, frequency domain, and space domain. It can take several pre-set values (as shown in the figure, there are 7 values, represented in ascending order as M1, M2, ..., M7);
[0244] The larger the value of the first indicator is, the larger the value of the target information value is.
[0245] The mapping relationship between the first indicator and the target information value shown in FIG5 can also be expressed in the form of a mapping function, which will not be described in detail here.
[0246] Optionally, in some embodiments, the resource configuration of the target signal may be determined by using a resource grid and a target resource pattern, wherein the resource configuration includes time domain resource configuration, frequency domain resource configuration, and space domain resource configuration.
[0247] Among them, time domain resource configuration is mainly used in scenarios where Doppler (or speed) measurement is required in synaesthesia integration. A group of OFDM symbols is configured in the time domain to form a perception frame, which is used to perform a Doppler (or speed) measurement. It meets the following requirements: the time span of the perception frame meets the Doppler measurement resolution requirements, and the time interval between OFDM symbols in the perception frame meets the maximum unambiguous measurement range requirements of the Doppler.
[0248] As shown in Figure 6, the configuration of CSI-RS in NR is used as an example for explanation. The configuration parameters of CSI-RS used to determine the time domain resource grid include: firstOFDMSymbolInTimeDomain=6, CSI-ResourcePeriodicityAndOffset->slots4=0. These parameters determine that the 6th (counting from 0) OFDM symbol in the 0th slot in every 4 slots is the OFDM symbol allocated to the resource grid. The resource grid length described in the figure is 48, and the activation and deactivation of the semi-persistent CSI-RS resources by the MAC Control Element (MAC Control Element, MAC CE) can be used to control the time span of the perception frame and thus determine the resource grid length, or, in the future, new time span parameters for the perception frame can be added for the synaesthesia integration function.
[0249] After determining the resource grid where the target signal is located in the time domain, in this example, a random Bernoulli function is used to generate the target pattern sequence. The random number seed value of the random Bernoulli function is seed = 1, and the probability of '1' appearing in the random Bernoulli trial is 0.4. The generated target pattern sequence is shown in Figure 6. The OFDM symbols in the resource grids corresponding to '1' in the target pattern sequence (resource grid n and resource grid n+2) are the OFDM symbols allocated to the target signal, and the OFDM symbols in the resource grid corresponding to '0' in the target pattern sequence (resource grid n+1) are the OFDM symbols not allocated to the target signal (i.e., the saved OFDM symbols). In this embodiment, the probability of '1' appearing in the random Bernoulli trial or the random number seed can be reported by the first device to the second device as the target information value.
[0250] As shown in Figure 7, the CSI-RS configuration in NR is used as an example. The CSI-RS configuration parameters used to determine the frequency domain resource grid include: startingRB (not shown in the figure), nrofRB = 48, frequencyDomainAllocation->row2 = '0000001000000', and density = 1. These parameters determine that the sixth subcarrier (counting from 0) in each RB within the specified 48 consecutive RBs is the subcarrier allocated to the resource grid.
[0251] After determining the resource grid where the target signal is located in the frequency domain, in this example, a random Bernoulli function is used to generate the target pattern sequence. The random number seed value of the random Bernoulli function is seed = 1, and the probability of '1' appearing in the random Bernoulli trial is 0.4. The generated target pattern sequence is shown in Figure 7. The subcarriers in the resource grids corresponding to '1' in the target pattern sequence (resource grid n+1, resource grid n+2, and resource grid n+5 in the figure) are subcarriers allocated to the target signal, and the subcarriers in the resource grids corresponding to '0' in the target pattern sequence (resource grid n, resource grid n+3, resource grid n+4, and resource grid n+6 in the figure) are subcarriers not allocated to the target signal (i.e., saved subcarriers). In this embodiment, the probability of '1' appearing in the random Bernoulli trial or the random number seed can be reported by the first device to the second device as the target information value.
[0252] As shown in FIG8 , a dimension in the horizontal direction or numerical direction of the antenna panel is taken as an example for description. In this dimension, 48 consecutive antenna ports or antenna units constitute the resource grid.
[0253] After determining the resource grid where the target signal is located in the spatial domain, the target pattern sequence is generated using a random Bernoulli function in this example. The random number seed value of the random Bernoulli function is seed=1, and the probability of '1' appearing in the random Bernoulli trial is 0.4. The generated target pattern sequence is shown in Figure 8. The resource grid corresponding to '1' in the target pattern sequence is the antenna port or antenna unit allocated to the target signal, and the resource grid corresponding to '0' in the target pattern sequence is the antenna port or antenna unit not allocated to the target signal (i.e., the saved antenna port or antenna unit). In this embodiment, the probability of '1' appearing in the random Bernoulli trial or the random number seed can be reported by the first device to the second device as the target information value.
[0254] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first device can determine a target information value based on the target indicator and report the target information value to the second device, and then the second device performs link adaptive adjustment of the resource configuration of the target signal based on the target information value, wherein the target indicator includes the first indicator or includes the first indicator and the second indicator.
[0255] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG9 , the following process may be included:
[0256] Step 901: The second device sends at least part of at least one of first configuration information and second configuration information to the first device;
[0257] Step 902: The first device determines a target indicator and determines a target information value according to the target indicator;
[0258] Step 903: The first device sends the target information value to the second device;
[0259] Step 904: The second device determines and performs link adaptive adjustment;
[0260] Step 905: The second device sends third configuration information to the first device.
[0261] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG10 , the following process may be included:
[0262] Step 1001: A second device sends at least part of at least one of first configuration information and second configuration information to a first device.
[0263] Step 1002: The first device determines a target indicator;
[0264] Step 1003: The first device sends the target indicator to the second device;
[0265] Step 1004: The second device determines a target information value, determines, and performs link adaptive adjustment;
[0266] Step 1005: The second device sends third configuration information to the first device.
[0267] With reference to FIG9 and FIG10 , the first device and the second device may include any of the following:
[0268] Case 1: The first device is a terminal, and the second device is an access network device or a core network device (such as a perception function network element);
[0269] Case 2: the first device is terminal 1 and the second device is terminal 2;
[0270] Case 3: The first device is an access network device, and the second device is a core network device;
[0271] Case 4: the first device is access network device 1, and the second device is access network device 2.
[0272] Optionally, some of the above situations (such as situation 1) are applicable to communication scenarios, and all of the situations are applicable to synaesthesia scenarios.
[0273] Optionally, in some embodiments, adaptive adjustment is performed in the frequency domain.
[0274] The channel has sparseness in the delay domain. By utilizing the sparsity of the channel in the delay domain, the target signal can be sparsely configured in the frequency domain according to the signal configuration adaptive processing method of the present application to save the frequency domain resource overhead of the target signal. The target signal can be: a reference signal in communication, or a perception signal in synaesthesia integration. The basic idea is: based on the results of channel measurement, the link adaptively selects a part of the subcarriers from the configured frequency domain resources for the configuration of the target signal, and the unselected subcarriers are saved. Among them, the configured frequency domain resources can be understood as the above-mentioned resource grid or a part of the resource grid.
[0275] The first device measures the target signal to obtain a target indicator, where the target indicator includes a first indicator, or includes a first indicator and a second indicator. The first indicator may be the number of sample points exceeding a first preset threshold in the delay domain, or the first indicator may be another indicator related to the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the delay domain. For example, the range of values for the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the delay domain may be divided into a plurality of intervals, each corresponding to an ID. The first indicator is the ID corresponding to the interval in which the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold actually measured in the delay domain falls.
[0276] In some implementations, the first device feeds back a target indicator to the second device via signaling, and the second device determines the target information value based on an algorithm, thereby determining a target pattern sequence, and notifies the first device of the target pattern sequence (i.e., the third configuration information). Thereafter, subcarriers corresponding to a target pattern sequence of '1' in the configured frequency domain resources (i.e., the resource grid) continue to transmit target signals, while subcarriers corresponding to a target pattern sequence of '0' in the configured frequency domain resources (i.e., the resource grid) do not transmit target signals.
[0277] In other embodiments, the first device determines the target information value based on the target indicator, and then determines the target pattern sequence. Prior to this, the second device needs to configure the method for determining the target information value and the target pattern sequence to the first device (i.e., the second configuration information). After the first device determines the target information value, it feeds back the target information value to the second device via signaling. Since the target information value uniquely corresponds to the target pattern sequence, the second device can obtain the target pattern sequence recommended by the first device after obtaining the target information value. The second device can choose to adopt the target pattern sequence corresponding to the target information value or not. If the second device adopts the target pattern sequence, the subcarriers corresponding to the target pattern sequence of '1' in the configured frequency domain resources (i.e., the resource grid) still transmit the target signal, while the subcarriers corresponding to the target pattern sequence of '0' in the configured frequency domain resources (i.e., the resource grid) do not transmit the target signal. The second device can indicate to the first device whether it has adopted the recommended target pattern sequence through a simple confirmation message (i.e., the third configuration information). For example, the confirmation message can be a 1-bit message. After receiving the confirmation information, the first device knows whether the second device adopts the target pattern sequence. If the second device adopts the target pattern sequence, the first device receives the target signal according to the frequency domain resource configuration of the target signal determined by the target pattern sequence; otherwise, the first device receives the target signal according to the previous configuration.
[0278] As shown in Figure 11, a schematic diagram of sparse configuration of the target signal using the solution of the present application is shown, taking a 32-port CSI-RS as an example. After link adaptive adjustment of the frequency domain resources of the target signal according to the target pattern sequence, in the configured frequency domain resources (i.e., the resource grid), the subcarriers in the resource grid corresponding to the '1' in the target pattern sequence on the right side still have CSI-RS transmission (as shown in the various patterns filled in the figure below), while the subcarriers in the resource grid corresponding to the '0' in the target pattern sequence on the right side do not have CSI-RS transmission (as shown in the gray filled part in the figure below).
[0279] Optionally, in some embodiments, adaptive adjustment is performed in the time domain.
[0280] The channel is sparse in the Doppler domain. By utilizing the sparsity of the channel in the Doppler domain, the target signal can be sparsely configured in the time domain according to the signal configuration adaptive processing method of the present application to save the time domain resource overhead of the target signal. The target signal can be: a reference signal in communication, or a perception signal in synaesthesia integration. In fact, only scatterers with relative motion between the transceiver device of the target signal will produce a Doppler frequency shift on the target signal; therefore, the sparsity of the channel in the Doppler domain is usually high. The basic idea is: based on the results of the channel measurement, the link adaptively selects a part of the OFDM symbols from the configured time domain resources for the configuration of the target signal, and the unselected OFDM symbols are saved. Among them, the configured frequency domain resources can be understood as the above-mentioned resource grid or a part of the resource grid.
[0281] The first device measures the target signal to obtain a target indicator, where the target indicator includes a first indicator, or includes a first indicator and a second indicator. The first indicator may be the number of sample points exceeding a first preset threshold in the Doppler domain, or may be another indicator related to the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the delay domain. For example, the range of values for the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the delay domain may be divided into a plurality of intervals, each corresponding to an ID. The first indicator is the ID corresponding to the interval in which the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the actually measured delay domain falls.
[0282] The process of adaptive adjustment is similar to the embodiment shown in FIG11 , and will not be described in detail here.
[0283] Figure 12 shows a schematic diagram of sparsely configuring target signals using the solution of the present application. This embodiment differs from the example shown in Figure 11 in that it is applied in the time domain, similar to its application in the frequency domain, and will not be further described here. It should be understood that the time domain period of the target signal in Figure 12 is 1 time slot for ease of diagramming.
[0284] Optionally, in some embodiments, adaptive adjustment is performed in the spatial domain.
[0285] The sparsity of the channel in the angular domain, especially in MIMO scenarios with a large number of ports (for example, mMIMO and el-MIMO), can be used to complete channel estimation by transmitting reference signals on a part of the ports according to the signal configuration adaptive processing method of the present application, without the need for each port to transmit the target signal, thereby saving at least one of the time-frequency resource overhead and the antenna port overhead. The target signal can be: a reference signal in communication, or a perception signal in synaesthesia integration. The basic idea is that according to the results of the channel measurement, a part of the antenna ports are adaptively selected from the configured spatial domain resources (antenna ports) for the configuration of the target signal, while the unselected antenna ports are saved. Among them, the spatial domain resources configured according to the relevant technical method are the resource grid described in the technical solution section. Since some antenna ports do not need to send target signals, the time-frequency domain resource overhead occupied by the target signal is correspondingly reduced. In addition, in the synaesthesia integration application, the ports that do not send perception signals can be closed or used for other services.
[0286] The first device measures the target signal to obtain a target indicator, which includes a first indicator, or includes a first indicator and a second indicator. The first indicator may be the number of sample points exceeding a first preset threshold in the angle domain, or may be another indicator related to the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the delay domain. For example, the range of values for the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the delay domain may be divided into a plurality of intervals, each corresponding to an ID. The first indicator is the ID corresponding to the interval in which the number of sample points exceeding the first preset threshold in the actually measured delay domain falls.
[0287] The process of adaptive adjustment is similar to the embodiment shown in FIG11 , and will not be described in detail here.
[0288] As shown in Figure 13, it is a schematic diagram of the sparse configuration of the target signal using the solution of the present application, still taking 32-port CSI-RS as an example. CSI-RS is still transmitted in the port corresponding to '1' in the target pattern sequence, while no CSI-RS is transmitted in the port corresponding to '0' in the target pattern sequence. Before the solution of the present application is adopted, the 32 ports allocated to CSI-RS constitute 4 code division multiplexing (CDM) groups, and each CDM group contains 8 ports. In a certain link adaptation process, according to the channel measurement results, only 16 ports are needed to achieve channel estimation in the entire angle domain. The 16 ports are determined by the target pattern sequence in the original 32 ports. For example, 6, 3, 3, and 4 ports of the previous 4 CDM groups are selected by the target pattern sequence, respectively, to form 2 new CDM groups, namely CDM group 5 and CDM group 6 in the figure. CDM group 5 and CDM group 6 occupy the resources of the original CDM group 1 and CDM group 2 in the time-frequency domain, thereby saving the time-frequency resources of the original CDM group 3 and CDM group 4 (the gray filled part in the figure below).
