[0415] The channel-related information is used to determine the input of the AI / ML model, and the position-related intermediate quantity is used to determine the label of the model.

[0425] The embodiment of the present disclosure uses a first data set including the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity, and an associated relationship between the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity to perform a first operation on the model, thereby achieving correct matching of the input of the AI / ML model and the label of the AI / ML model, making it more accurate to perform operations such as training / monitoring / updating / fine-tuning on the model.

[0426] As an implementation in some embodiments, when the first communication device includes a base station or a transmission reception point, the determining of the channel-related information of the target reference signal includes:

[0427] measuring an uplink reference signal sent by the second communication device to obtain channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0428] The second communication device includes a terminal or a positioning reference unit PRU.

[0429] Specifically, an uplink reference signal, such as a UL-SRS-pos signal, sent by the second communication device is received and measured, and channel-related information of the uplink reference signal is obtained as input to the AI / ML model.

[0430] In some embodiments, the method further includes: obtaining the position-related intermediate quantity includes:

[0431] The channel-related information is sent to a third communication device, where the channel-related information is used by the third communication device to determine a position-related intermediate quantity.

[0432] In some embodiments, obtaining the position-related intermediate quantity includes:

[0433] A location-related intermediate quantity is determined by receiving the channel-related information sent by the third communication device based on at least one first communication device; the at least one first communication device includes at least one other first communication device other than the first communication device; wherein the third communication device includes a location management function (LMF).

[0434] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the gNB / TRP sends UL-SRS-pos channel-related information to the LMF. The LMF determines the position-related intermediate quantity, i.e., the label of the AI ​​model, based on N UL-SRS-pos channel-related information. The LMF sends the determined AI model label to the gNB / TRP, where N is a positive integer greater than 2, N UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by the gNB / TRP, and UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by at least one other gNB / TRP.

[0435] In some embodiments, the sending of the channel-related information to the third communication device further includes first auxiliary information, where the first auxiliary information is used to establish an association relationship between the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity.

[0436] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the gNB / TRP also includes first auxiliary information when sending the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal to the LMF, thereby establishing an association relationship between the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity, so that the input of the AI / ML model and the label of the AI / ML model are correctly matched.

[0437] In some embodiments, when the first communication device is a target base station or a transmission reception point, obtaining the intermediate quantity related to the location includes:

[0438] receiving a location-related intermediate quantity determined by the third communication device, wherein the location-related intermediate quantity is determined by the third communication device based on channel-related information sent by at least one base station or transmission reception point, and the at least one base station or transmission reception point does not include the target base station or transmission reception point;

[0439] Wherein, the third communication device includes a location management function LMF.

[0440] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, gNB1 / TRP1 sends UL-SRS-pos channel-related information to LMF. LMF may receive not only UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by gNB1 / TRP1, but also UL-SRS-pos channel-related information of multiple other gNB / TRPs (e.g., TRP2 to N). In an embodiment of the present disclosure, LMF determines a position-related intermediate quantity based on the UL-SRS-pos channel-related information of multiple other gNB / TRPs (e.g., TRP2 to N), and sends the position-related intermediate quantity to gNB1 / TRP1.

[0441] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0442] First auxiliary information is determined, where the first auxiliary information is used to establish an association relationship between the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity.

[0443] The first auxiliary information includes at least one of the following:

[0444] a data identifier corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0445] The uplink reference signal can be UL-SRS-pos or other uplink signals. The data identifier can be sample 1, sample 2, etc. When the LMF transmits the position-dependent intermediate quantity, it also carries the corresponding data identifier, so that the gNB / TRP can match the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal with the position-dependent intermediate quantity through the data identifier.

[0446] A timestamp corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0447] The timestamp is the time when the gNB / TRP measured the uplink reference signal to obtain channel-related information. The LMF also carries a corresponding timestamp when transmitting the location-dependent intermediate quantity. This timestamp is the timestamp corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal transmitted by the gNB / TRP. The gNB / TRP uses the timestamp of the location-dependent intermediate quantity to determine the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal that matches it. This timestamp can be a timestamp corresponding to the gNB / TRP's time or a timestamp corresponding to the absolute time (UTC).

[0448] an identifier of the first communication device corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0449] The identifier of the first communication device includes dl-PRS-ID, nrPhysCellId, CellGlobalID, etc. When the LMF sends the location-related intermediate quantity to the gNB / TRP, it also carries the corresponding gNB / TRP identifier, which helps the gNB / TRP to use the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal that matches the location-related intermediate quantity.

[0450] resource information of the uplink reference signal corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0451] The resource information of the uplink reference signal includes SRS resource ID, SRS resource set ID and the like.

[0452] quality indication information corresponding to the position-related intermediate quantity;

[0453] Information indicating the quality of the position-dependent intermediate quantity is required.

[0454] When the gNB / TRP transmits channel-related information for an uplink reference signal, it may also include quality indication information of a location-dependent intermediate quantity and / or quality indication information requirements for the location-dependent intermediate quantity. When the quality indication information of the location-dependent intermediate quantity determined by the LMF does not meet the quality indication information requirements, the LMF instructs the gNB / TRP to discard the channel-related information for this uplink reference signal during model training or model monitoring. Alternatively, the LMF transmits both the location-dependent intermediate quantity and the quality indication information corresponding to the location-dependent intermediate quantity to the gNB / TRP. Whether the gNB / TRP uses the channel-related information and location-dependent intermediate quantity of some uplink reference signals with suboptimal quality during model training or model monitoring is a matter for the gNB / TRP to implement.

[0455] In some embodiments, the received location-related intermediate quantity sent by the third communication device further includes second auxiliary information, and the second auxiliary information is used to establish an association relationship between the channel-related information and the location-related intermediate quantity.

[0507] In some embodiments, the channel-related information includes M items, and the position-related intermediate quantities include M items, where M is a positive integer.

[0508] The M channel-related information includes M channel-related information within a first time period, where the first time period is indicated by a third communication device or agreed upon by a protocol.

[0509] Specifically, when the first communications device includes a base station or a transmission reception point, the LMF may receive channel-related information for a single uplink reference signal sent by the gNB / TRP, and the LMF may feedback a single location-related intermediate quantity to the gNB / TRP.

At this time, the LMF needs to feed back M position-related intermediate quantities to the UE. Here, the value of M can be agreed upon by the protocol, or M can be indicated by the LMF. For example, the UE initiates a data collection request to the LMF side, and the LMF side sends confirmation information of the data collection request to the UE side, and the confirmation information carries the M. Alternatively, the LMF indicates or the protocol agrees on a time length, and the UE sends the channel-related information of all downlink reference signals within the time length to the LMF.

[0517] Specifically, when the first operation is to monitor the model, the input of the model is determined based on the channel-related information, the output of the model is determined based on the input of the model and the model, and then the model can be monitored based on the output of the model and the intermediate quantity related to the position, thereby realizing model monitoring.

[0518] FIG2 is a flowchart of another information processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, which is applied to a third communication device. As shown in FIG2 , the method includes the following steps:

[0519] Step 201, determining position-related intermediate quantities;

[0520] Step 202: Send the location-related intermediate quantity to the first communication device;

[0521] The third communication device includes a location management function LMF.

[0522] In some embodiments, when the first communication device comprises a base station or a transmission reception point, determining the location-related intermediate quantity comprises:

[0523] receiving channel-related information sent by at least one first communication device;

[0524] A position-related intermediate quantity is determined based on the channel-related information, and the at least one first communication device includes at least one other first communication device other than the first communication device.

[0525] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the gNB / TRP sends UL-SRS-pos channel-related information to the LMF. The LMF determines the position-related intermediate quantity, i.e., the label of the AI ​​model, based on N UL-SRS-pos channel-related information. The LMF sends the determined AI model label to the gNB / TRP, where N is a positive integer greater than 2, N UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by the gNB / TRP, and UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by at least one other gNB / TRP.

[0526] In some embodiments, when the first communication device comprises a target base station or a transmission reception point, determining the location-related intermediate quantity comprises:

[0527] receiving channel-related information sent by at least one base station or transmission reception point;

[0528] determining a position-related intermediate quantity based on the channel-related information;

[0529] The at least one base station or transmission reception point does not include the target base station or transmission reception point.

[0530] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, gNB1 / TRP1 sends UL-SRS-pos channel-related information to LMF. LMF may receive not only UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by gNB1 / TRP1, but also UL-SRS-pos channel-related information of multiple other gNB / TRPs (e.g., TRP2 to N). In an embodiment of the present disclosure, LMF determines a position-related intermediate quantity based on the UL-SRS-pos channel-related information of multiple other gNB / TRPs (e.g., TRP2 to N), and sends the position-related intermediate quantity to gNB1 / TRP1.

[0531] In some embodiments, determining the position-related intermediate quantity based on the channel-related information includes:

[0532] Calculating the terminal location based on the channel related information;

[0533] The position-related intermediate quantity is determined based on the terminal position and the coordinates of the first communication device.

[0534] Specifically, the gNB / TRP may send channel-related information of the uplink reference signal to the LMF, and the LMF may determine position-related intermediate quantities based on the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal sent by the gNB / TRP and the channel-related information of other gNBs / TRPs. For example, if gNB1 / TRP1 sends UL-SRS-pos channel-related information to the LMF, the LMF may receive not only the UL-SRS-pos channel-related information sent by gNB1 / TRP1, but also the UL-SRS-pos channel-related information of multiple other gNBs / TRPs (e.g., TRP2 to TRPN). The LMF can use the UL-TDoA measurement results of multiple TRPs1 to TRPN to calculate the UE position. The calculated UE position and TRP coordinates can then be used to infer position-related intermediate quantities such as ToA and RToA. Here, the LMF side may use TRP2 / 3 / 4 / 5 with a high LOS probability through LOS / NLOS indication to calculate a more accurate UE location, but it can also use the calculated UE location and the coordinates of TRP1 to reversely infer the intermediate quantities related to position such as ToA and RToA corresponding to TRP1. Then, the LMF sends the intermediate quantities related to position corresponding to TRP1 to gNB1 / TRP1 as labels for the AI ​​model.

[0535] In some embodiments, the channel-related information received from the first communication device further includes first auxiliary information, where the first auxiliary information is used to establish an association relationship between the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity, and the first auxiliary information includes at least one of the following:

[0536] a data identifier corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0537] The uplink reference signal can be UL-SRS-pos or other uplink signals. The data identifier can be sample 1, sample 2, etc. When the LMF transmits the position-dependent intermediate quantity, it also carries the corresponding data identifier, so that the gNB / TRP can match the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal with the position-dependent intermediate quantity through the data identifier.

[0538] A timestamp corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0539] The timestamp is the time when the gNB / TRP measures the uplink reference signal to obtain channel-related information. The LMF also carries a corresponding timestamp when transmitting the location-dependent intermediate quantity. This timestamp corresponds to the timestamp corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal transmitted by the gNB / TRP. The gNB / TRP uses the timestamp of the location-dependent intermediate quantity to determine the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal that matches it. This timestamp can be a timestamp corresponding to the gNB / TRP's time or a timestamp corresponding to the absolute time (UTC).

[0540] an identifier of the first communication device corresponding to the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal;

[0541] The identifier of the first communication device includes dl-PRS-ID, nrPhysCellId, CellGlobalID, etc. When the LMF sends the location-related intermediate quantity to the gNB / TRP, it also carries the corresponding gNB / TRP identifier, which helps the gNB / TRP to use the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal that matches the location-related intermediate quantity.

[0546] When the gNB / TRP transmits channel-related information for an uplink reference signal, it may also include quality indication information of a location-dependent intermediate quantity and / or quality indication information requirements for the location-dependent intermediate quantity. When the quality indication information of the location-dependent intermediate quantity determined by the LMF does not meet the quality indication information requirements, the LMF instructs the gNB / TRP to discard the channel-related information for this uplink reference signal during model training or model monitoring. Alternatively, the LMF transmits both the location-dependent intermediate quantity and the quality indication information corresponding to the location-dependent intermediate quantity to the gNB / TRP. Whether the gNB / TRP uses the channel-related information and location-dependent intermediate quantity of some uplink reference signals with suboptimal quality during model training or model monitoring is a matter for the gNB / TRP to implement.

[0547] In some embodiments, the location-related intermediate quantity sent to the first communication device includes second auxiliary information, where the second auxiliary information is used to establish an association between the channel-related information and the location-related intermediate quantity:

The NB / TRP uses the timestamp of the location-related intermediate quantity to determine the channel-related information of the uplink reference signal that matches it. The timestamp can be a timestamp corresponding to the time of the gNB / TRP or a timestamp corresponding to the absolute time (UTC).

Here, the UE position-related information can be the UE position obtained by the non-NR method or the measurement result used to determine the UE position. The non-NR method can be GNSS, sensor positioning method, etc.

[0567] In some embodiments, the received channel-related information sent by the first communication device includes third auxiliary information, and the third auxiliary information is used to establish an association relationship between the channel-related information and the position-related intermediate quantity;

[0580] In some embodiments, the location-related intermediate quantity sent to the first communication device further includes fourth auxiliary information, where the fourth auxiliary information is used to establish an association relationship between the channel-related information and the location-related intermediate quantity;

[0592] Indicate to the first communication device a maximum time interval between the first communication device sending the channel-related information of the downlink reference signal and determining the position-related information.

[0593] Specifically, when the LMF can determine the location-related intermediate quantity based on the UE location-related information, the LMF / gNB can indicate the maximum time interval for the UE to send DL-PRS channel-related information and measure / determine the location-related information, and the UE needs to complete the DL-PRS channel-related information and location-related information determination within this time interval; or, the protocol stipulates the maximum time interval for the UE to measure / determine the DL-PRS channel-related information and location-related information.
