[0046] In some embodiments, network-side devices and terminals may have perception capabilities in addition to communication capabilities. Perception capabilities refer to one or more devices with the ability to sense the position, distance, speed, and other information of a target object through the transmission and reception of wireless signals, or to detect, track, identify, and image a target object, event, or environment. Some perception functions and application scenarios are shown in Table 1:
[0047] Table 1
[0048] It should be noted that the perception categories shown in Table 1 above are only examples, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the categories of perception measurements.
[0049] In addition, the embodiments of the present application can be applied to the communication and perception integration scenario, where communication and perception integration refers to the integrated design of communication and perception functions through spectrum sharing and hardware sharing in the same system. While transmitting information, the system can perceive information such as direction, distance, speed, and detect, track, and identify target devices or events. The communication system and the perception system complement each other to achieve overall performance improvement and bring a better service experience.
[0050] For example: the integration of communication and radar is a typical communication-perception integration (communication-perception fusion) application, and the integration of communication and radar systems can bring many advantages, such as cost savings, size reduction, power consumption reduction, spectrum efficiency improvement, and mutual interference reduction, thereby improving the overall performance of the system.
[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, depending on the difference between the sending node and the receiving node of the perception signal, the six types of perception links shown in Figure 2 may be included but not limited to. It should be noted that each perception link in Figure 2 is illustrated by taking a sending node and a receiving node as an example. In the actual system, different perception links can be selected according to different perception needs. Each perception link may have one or more sending nodes and one receiving node, and the actual perception system may include a variety of different perception links. In addition, the perception targets in Figure 2 take people and cars as examples, and assuming that people and cars do not carry or install signal receiving / transmitting equipment, the perception targets of the actual scene will be richer.
[0052] Sensing link 1: The base station transmits and receives sensing signals autonomously. In this mode, the base station sends sensing signals and obtains sensing results by receiving the echo of the sensing signals.
[0053] Sensing link 2: inter-base station air interface sensing. In this mode, base station 2 receives the sensing signal sent by base station 1 and obtains the sensing result.
[0054] Perception link 3: Uplink air interface perception: In this mode, the base station receives the perception signal sent by the terminal and obtains the perception result.
[0055] Perception link 4: Downlink air interface perception: In this mode, the terminal receives the perception signal sent by the base station and obtains the perception result.

[0057] Perception link 6: Sidelink perception between terminals. For example, terminal 2 receives a perception signal sent by terminal 1 and obtains a perception result, or terminal 1 receives a perception signal sent by terminal 2 and obtains a perception result.
[0058] For common distance, Doppler, or speed measurements in perception measurements, measurement ambiguity occurs when the signal resource configuration does not meet the requirements. For example, for single-base radar perception, the relationship between the maximum unambiguous distance, Doppler, or speed and the signal resource configuration is:
[0059] If the speed direction is considered, the time domain resource interval satisfies ΔT≤1 / (2|f dmax |) or ΔT≤c / (4f c |v max |); If the time domain resource interval in the direction of speed is not considered and satisfies ΔT≤1 / f dmax Or ΔT≤c / (2f c v max ), where f dmax is the maximum unambiguous Doppler, v max is the maximum unambiguous velocity, f c is the carrier frequency, c is the speed of light;
[0060] Frequency domain resource spacing satisfies Δf≤1 / τ max Or Δf≤c / (2R max ), where τ max is the maximum unambiguous delay, R max is the maximum unambiguous distance.
[0061] That is, when the frequency domain resource interval of the signal exceeds a certain value, ranging ambiguity will occur, and when the time domain resource interval exceeds a certain value, speed measurement / Doppler measurement ambiguity will occur. The signal measurement method provided in the embodiment of the present application can solve the problem of speed measurement / Doppler measurement ambiguity.
[0062] The following describes in detail a signal measurement method, apparatus, and device provided by the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0063] Please refer to FIG3 , which is a flow chart of a signal measurement method provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG3 , the method includes the following steps:
[0064] Step 301: A first device measures a first signal to obtain a first measurement result.
[0065] The first measurement result includes at least one of the following:
[0066] Frequency offset information, where the frequency offset information is calculated based on the CP and data of the first signal;
[0067] Measurement ambiguity related information, where the measurement ambiguity related information is information related to the measurement ambiguity determined based on the frequency offset information and the unambiguous measurement range;
[0068] first Doppler related information, where the first Doppler related information is measured Doppler related information;
[0069] The second Doppler related information is Doppler related information for eliminating measurement ambiguity.
[0070] The first device may be a terminal or a network-side device.
[0071] The above-mentioned measurement of the first signal may be that the first device measures the first signal sent by other devices, such as the terminal measures the signal sent by the network side device or other terminals, or the network side device measures the signal sent by the terminal or other network side devices; or, the above-mentioned measurement of the first signal may be that the first device measures the first signal sent by the first device, such as the terminal measures the signal sent by the terminal, or the network side device measures the signal sent by the network side device.
[0072] The frequency offset information may be frequency offset information calculated based on the CP and data of the first signal after the first device acquires the CP and data of the first signal.
[0073] In some embodiments, when the measurement result includes measurement ambiguity-related information, the frequency offset information may be included or excluded. For example, the first device obtains the frequency offset information, but does not include the frequency offset information in the measurement result when generating the measurement result.
[0074] In some embodiments, the first Doppler-related information may be ambiguous Doppler-related information obtained by observing the first signal when Doppler ambiguity occurs; or the first Doppler-related information may be Doppler-related information obtained by observing the first signal when no Doppler ambiguity occurs. The measured Doppler-related information may also be referred to as observed Doppler-related information.
[0075] In some embodiments, the second Doppler-related information may be actual Doppler-related information calculated when Doppler ambiguity occurs, i.e., although Doppler ambiguity occurs, the first device calculates Doppler-related information that eliminates the measurement ambiguity, i.e., Doppler-related information after the measurement ambiguity is eliminated.
[0076] In some embodiments, the first Doppler-related information includes at least one of the following:
[0077] First Doppler information and first speed information, where the first speed information is speed information associated with the first Doppler information.
[0078] The first Doppler information may be a first Doppler value or a first Doppler, and the first velocity information may be velocity information calculated based on the first Doppler information, such as radial velocity information.
[0079] In addition, the first Doppler-related information may include first Doppler information or first speed information of at least one sensing target.
[0080] In some embodiments, the second Doppler-related information includes at least one of the following:
[0081] Second Doppler information and second speed information, where the second speed information is speed information associated with the second Doppler information.
[0082] The second Doppler information may be a second Doppler value or a second Doppler, that is, a Doppler value that eliminates measurement ambiguity, and the second speed information may be speed information calculated based on the second Doppler information.
[0083] In addition, the second Doppler-related information may include second Doppler information or second speed information of at least one sensing target.
[0084] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned measurements include perceptual measurements.
[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, since the measurement result includes at least one of the frequency deviation information, the measurement ambiguity related information, the first Doppler related information and the second Doppler related information, the measurement performance can be improved.
[0086] As an optional implementation manner, the measurement ambiguity related information includes at least one of the following:
[0087] Indication of whether measurement ambiguity occurs;
[0088] The measurement range indication information corresponding to the second Doppler related information.
[0089] Whether measurement ambiguity occurs indicates whether measurement ambiguity occurs in the measurement of the first signal.
[0090] For example, due to the limitation of signal resource configuration, the observable Doppler range is limited, that is, |f dmax |≤1 / 2ΔT, the Doppler observation window length is f dmax is the maximum unambiguous Doppler, ΔT is the signal time domain resource interval, and the corresponding Doppler observation window is (Window 0), as shown in Figure 4. When the actual Doppler exceeds When it falls in other Doppler observation windows, Doppler measurement ambiguity occurs. For example, the first Doppler is Based on CP calculation This indicates that the actual Doppler is located in window 1, so the final actual Doppler is (Shift an observation window). Among them, f Δ It can be the result of quantizing the frequency value.
[0091] In the embodiment of the present application, the observation window may also be referred to as the observation range, and the Doppler may also be referred to as the Doppler value.
[0092] In the above embodiment, the indication information of whether measurement ambiguity occurs is used to enable the device to determine whether measurement ambiguity occurs, so that the first Doppler-related information is directly used when no measurement ambiguity occurs, and the second Doppler-related information is used when measurement ambiguity occurs, thereby improving measurement performance.
[0093] The measurement range indication information corresponding to the second Doppler related information may include at least one of the following:
[0094] Information about a measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information;
[0095] an offset of a measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information relative to a Doppler observation range;
[0096] An offset index of a measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information relative to a Doppler observation range.
[0097] The information of the measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information may be information of the measurement range to which the second Doppler related information belongs.
[0098] For example: The Doppler value range corresponding to the second Doppler related information is The information of the measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information can be Or it is an index of the range, and the index is used to represent the Doppler value range corresponding to the second Doppler related information.
[0099] The above Doppler observation range may be limited by the signal resource configuration. If |f dmax |≤1 / 2ΔT, the Doppler observation range length is f dmax is the maximum unambiguous Doppler, ΔT is the signal time domain resource interval, as shown in Figure 4 (Window 0) In some embodiments, the Doppler observation range may be a network-side configuration or protocol agreement, or a Doppler observation range calculated based on signal resource configuration. The Doppler observation range may also be referred to as a current observation range.
[0100] The offset of the measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information relative to the Doppler observation range refers to the relative offset of the two measurement ranges. For example, as shown in FIG4 , the Doppler observation range is This way through It can be expressed as a positive shift relative to the Doppler observation range. Right now pass It can indicate a negative shift relative to the Doppler observation range. Right now
[0101] The offset index of the measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information relative to the Doppler observation range refers to the index of the relative offset of the two measurement ranges. For example, as shown in FIG4 , “0” indicates that no Doppler measurement ambiguity occurs (indicates that the actual Doppler falls within "1" means a window is shifted in the positive direction relative to the Doppler observation range (indicating that the target Doppler falls within the range of "-1" means a window shifted in the negative direction relative to the Doppler observation range (indicating that the perceived target Doppler falls within the range of within the scope).
[0102] The above offset or offset index can save the overhead of the measurement result.
[0103] In the above embodiment, by including the measurement range indication information corresponding to the second Doppler related information in the measurement result, the device using the measurement result can calculate the Doppler related information for eliminating measurement ambiguity based on the measurement range indication information, thereby improving measurement performance.
[0104] Since the measurement ambiguity related information can be used to calculate the Doppler related information to eliminate the measurement ambiguity, the measurement ambiguity related information can also be called deambiguation auxiliary information.
[0105] As an optional implementation manner, the second Doppler related information is calculated based on the first Doppler related information and the frequency offset information; or
[0106] The second Doppler related information is calculated based on the first Doppler related information and the measurement ambiguity related information.
[0107] The second Doppler related information is calculated based on the first Doppler related information and the frequency offset information. The measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler related information is determined based on the frequency offset information, and the second Doppler related information is then determined based on the measurement range and the first Doppler related information.
[0108] For example: The first Doppler measured is The above frequency deviation information is As shown in Figure 4, the actual Doppler is located in window 1, and the Doppler value that finally eliminates the measurement ambiguity (i.e., the second Doppler) is (Shift one viewing window).
[0109] The second Doppler-related information may be calculated based on the first Doppler-related information and the measurement ambiguity-related information. The corresponding measurement range may be determined by calculating the measurement ambiguity-related information based on the measurement ambiguity-related information, and then the second Doppler-related information is determined based on the measurement range and the first Doppler-related information. If the measurement ambiguity-related information indicates whether measurement ambiguity occurs, then by default, the measurement range corresponding to the second Doppler-related information is offset to the right or left by one window when measurement ambiguity occurs. This specific setting may be preset based on a business scenario or empirical values.
[0110] In this embodiment, the Doppler-related information that eliminates measurement ambiguity can be calculated using the two aforementioned methods, thereby improving measurement performance. Furthermore, since the Doppler-related information that eliminates measurement ambiguity can be calculated based on the two aforementioned methods, the Doppler-related information that eliminates measurement ambiguity can be calculated without increasing the signal time domain resource density, i.e., without increasing signal resource overhead.
[0111] In some embodiments, the first Doppler-related information or the second Doppler-related information may be a result of quantizing the Doppler value, or may be an index value corresponding to a sample point with maximum intensity in the Doppler domain dimension after a fast Fourier transform (FFT) / discrete Fourier transform (DFT) operation or a sample point with an intensity exceeding a preset threshold. For example, if the number of sampling points (number of symbols) corresponding to the FFT / DFT operation is N, and the index value corresponding to the maximum intensity in the Doppler domain dimension after the FFT / DFT operation is X (0≤X≤N-1), then the corresponding Doppler information is X.
[0112] As an optional implementation manner, the frequency offset information includes:
[0113] Frequency offset information calculated based on all CPs and data of the first signal; or
[0114] The frequency offset information is calculated based on a portion of the CP of the first signal and data, where the portion of the CP is obtained by intercepting the CP of the first signal based on CP interception information.
[0115] The above data may also be referred to as symbol data, and the above CP may also be referred to as CP data.
[0116] The CP interception information may be determined by the first device itself, or received by the first device from other devices, or agreed upon by a protocol.
[0117] The CP interception information may include at least one of the following:
[0118] CP interception starting position, CP interception end position, CP interception length.
[0119] The starting position of the above-mentioned CP interception can be an absolute time, a sampling point index, or an offset relative to a specific time domain position. For self-transmitting and self-receiving perception, the specific time domain position can be the moment when the current symbol is sent. For device A transmitting and device B receiving perception, the specific time domain position can be the starting moment of the current symbol after the receiving end timing synchronization (that is, the timing synchronization mark of A transmitting and B receiving mentioned above (the default starting moment of CP interception by the receiver)), or the arrival time of the first path of the signal for the current symbol.
[0120] The CP cutoff position may be an absolute time, a sampling point index, or an offset relative to a specific time domain position.
[0121] The CP truncation length is used to calculate the length of the CP portion of the frequency offset information.
[0122] In some embodiments, the CP interception information is determined based on at least one of the following:
[0123] signal reflection path information associated with the first signal;
[0124] Perceive target area information;
[0125] Perceive target distance information.
[0126] The signal reflection path information includes at least one of the following:
[0127] Number of signal reflection paths, delay information of signal reflection paths, and channel delay spread.
[0128] The delay information of the signal reflection path may be the reflection path delay information calculated for the first signal, or the reflection path delay information measured in advance.
[0129] The CP interception information may be determined based on at least one of the above items, and may be determined based on the above at least one item to determine the actual position of the CP of the first signal and intercept it, or determined based on the above at least one item to determine the overlapping position of the CP of the first signal of multiple reflection paths and intercept the overlapping position.
[0130] For example, the delay range of the first signal is determined based on the perceived area or distance, the actual position of the CP of the first signal is determined based on the delay range and intercepted, or the overlapping position of the CP of the first signal of multiple reflection paths in the delay range is determined to intercept the overlapping position.
[0131] For another example: there is a signal reflection path in the channel. The received signal diagram is shown in Figure 5. Time T1 represents the timing synchronization mark sent by device A and received by device B (the default starting time for intercepting CP), or the time when the self-transmitted and self-received signal is sent (the default starting time for intercepting CP). The actual arrival time of the signal reflection path is T2, which is offset by τ1 from the original default starting time for intercepting CP. In order to reduce the inter-symbol interference when using CP to calculate frequency offset, CP data is intercepted within the range of at least T2 to T3 (the actual intercepted data length can be less than the CP length), and then the corresponding data part is taken to calculate the frequency offset f Δ .
[0132] For another example: Assume that there are two signal reflection paths in the channel, and the received signal diagram is shown in Figure 6. Time T1 represents the timing synchronization mark sent by device A and received by device B (the default starting time for intercepting CP), or the time when the self-transmitted and self-received signal is sent (the default starting time for intercepting CP). The actual arrival time of signal reflection path 1 is T2, which differs from the original default starting time for intercepting CP by an offset of τ1. The actual arrival time of signal reflection path 2 is T3, which differs from the original default starting time for intercepting CP by an offset of τ2. In order to reduce the inter-symbol interference when using CP to calculate frequency offset, CP data is intercepted at least within the range of T3 to T4 (the actual intercepted data length can be less than the CP length), and then the corresponding data part is taken and the frequency offset f is calculated. Δ .
[0133] In the above implementation, the frequency offset information is calculated based on a portion of the CP of the first signal and data, which can reduce measurement interference and further improve measurement performance.
[0134] In some embodiments, such as OFDM systems, a cyclic prefix (CP) is typically inserted at the beginning of each OFDM symbol to mitigate the effects of multipath on the signal. This CP is a copy of the data at the end of the OFDM symbol. For communications systems, the CP length is typically determined by the maximum multipath delay spread (greater than the channel impulse response length). OFDM radars can also utilize CP to mitigate the effects of range sidelobes and improve ranging performance.
[0135] Taking a single OFDM symbol as an example, t = nT s (T s The received signal at the time (sampling interval) is represented as r(n), n=0,1,...,N+L-1, where n represents the time domain sampling point number, N represents the OFDM symbol length, and L represents the CP length. The frequency offset value f under the current channel environment can be obtained by performing correlation calculation using the CP part data r(n), n=0,1,...,L-1 and the corresponding OFDM symbol end part data r(n+N), n=0,1,...,L-1. Δ , the calculation process is:
[0136] or
[0137] Where * represents the conjugate operation, arg(R) represents the argument operation of the complex number, or it can be:
[0138] or
[0139] The time domain interval between the CP and the corresponding OFDM symbol end data is one OFDM symbol length. The time domain interval is small, so f Δ Determine the Doppler range under the current channel environment and thus resolve the Doppler measurement ambiguity problem.
[0140] In some implementations, the final f can be calculated by averaging the frequency offset values calculated using multiple symbols (eg, each symbol involved in the current Doppler calculation). Δ , thereby improving measurement accuracy.
[0141] In some implementations, the frequency offset information may be frequency offset information calculated in the case of multiple measurement targets. Therefore, the frequency offset information may also be referred to as composite frequency offset information.
[0142] As an optional implementation manner, the first Doppler related information is Doppler related information calculated based on data of the first signal; or
[0143] The first Doppler related information is Doppler related information measured within a Doppler observation range.
[0144] The Doppler-related information calculated based on the data of the first signal may be the Doppler-related information calculated based on the data of the first signal using an FFT or Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) or an estimating signal parameter via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) algorithm. Specifically, the Doppler-related information is calculated based only on the data of the first signal without using CP.
[0145] Since the first Doppler related information is the Doppler related information calculated based on the data of the first signal, the first Doppler related information can satisfy the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement range corresponding to the first signal configuration corresponding to the first signal, that is, it satisfies the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement requirement.
[0146] The above-mentioned Doppler observation range can be found in the relevant description of the above-mentioned embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0147] Because the first Doppler-related information is Doppler-related information measured within the Doppler observation range, the first Doppler-related information can satisfy the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement range, that is, satisfy the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement requirement. For example, if the value of the first Doppler-related information does not exceed the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement range corresponding to the first signal configuration, but Doppler measurement ambiguity actually occurs, the first Doppler-related information is ambiguous Doppler-related information. For another example, if the value of the first Doppler-related information does not exceed the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement range corresponding to the first signal configuration, and Doppler measurement ambiguity does not actually occur, the first Doppler-related information is actual Doppler-related information, and the first Doppler-related information is the same as the second Doppler-related information.
[0148] Since the first Doppler-related information is the Doppler-related information measured within the Doppler observation range, it is possible to calculate the first Doppler-related information without increasing the signal time domain resource density, that is, without increasing the signal resource overhead. That is, the first Doppler-related information meets the requirements of maximum unambiguous Doppler / speed measurement, thereby improving the measurement performance.
[0149] For example, the OFDM signal time domain resource interval used for perception is 0.005s, and the corresponding maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement range is -100 to 100Hz (considering the target's motion direction). FFT is used to calculate Doppler, and the time domain resource length corresponding to each FFT calculation window is 0.1s (20 symbols in total), and the corresponding Doppler resolution is 10Hz.
[0150] Assume that there are three dynamic targets in the environment, and the Doppler frequency shift values caused by the target motion are 200 Hz, 270 Hz, and 290 Hz, respectively, which exceed the maximum unambiguous Doppler measurement range corresponding to the perception signal configuration with a time domain interval of 0.005 s.
[0151] After the first device receives the first signal, the composite frequency offset value is calculated based on the CP of the OFDM symbol in the FFT window: Δ =240Hz (to improve processing gain, the composite frequency offset value obtained by CP calculation based on 20 OFDM symbols in the FFT calculation window can be averaged as the final result), then the CP is removed and the least squares (LS) channel estimation is performed to obtain the channel information H corresponding to each perception signal time-frequency domain resource unit. Based on the channel information corresponding to different OFDM symbols, an FFT operation along the time domain dimension is performed to obtain the first Doppler related information, which are 0Hz, 70Hz, and 90Hz respectively. The first Doppler related information is the Doppler value corresponding to the three perception targets when Doppler measurement ambiguity occurs, as shown in Figure 7. Further, based on the above composite frequency offset value and the first Doppler related information, the second Doppler related information can be obtained (according to f Δ =240 Hz (shifting the Doppler observation window from -100 to 100 Hz to 100 to 300 Hz), that is, the Doppler values corresponding to the three perceived targets after removing the Doppler measurement ambiguity, as shown in Figure 8.
[0152] In addition, the second Doppler value f d2 Get target speed and other perception information.
