[0375] The following first introduces the contents involved in the solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0376] 1. Positioning Architecture for NG Radio Access Network (NG-RAN)

[0377] As shown in Figure 1, it shows a schematic diagram of a positioning architecture applicable to NG-RAN.

[0378] In the positioning architecture shown in Figure 1, the Location Management Function (LMF) entity is responsible for selecting the positioning method and triggering the corresponding positioning measurements, and can also calculate the final positioning result and accuracy. The NG Radio Access Network (NG-RAN) is used to send positioning reference signals or perform positioning measurements based on auxiliary information. The User Equipment (UE) is used to send positioning reference signals or perform positioning measurements based on auxiliary information, and can also calculate the final positioning result and accuracy based on the measurement results. The LMF includes: the control plane called the Enhanced Serving Mobile Location Centre (E-SMLC) and the user plane called the Service Location Protocol (SLP).

[0379] 2. Positioning Process in NR Network

[0380] Referring to FIG2 , the uplink positioning process may include the following steps:

[0381] Step 0: The LMF sends the NRPPa DL PRS CONFIGURATION INFORMATION EXCHANGE message to the serving base station.

[0382] Step 1: LMF sends LPP capability transfer to UE to obtain the UE's positioning capability.

[0383] Step 2: The LMF sends an NRPPa POSITIONING INFORMATION REQUEST signaling to the serving gNB, requesting the UE's uplink sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration information.

[0384] Step 3: The serving gNB determines the available uplink SRS resources (gNB determines UL SRS Resources) and configures an uplink SRS resource set for the UE via step 3a. UE SRS Configuration.

[0385] Step 4: The serving gNB reports the uplink SRS configuration information to the LMF through NRPPa POSITIONING INFORMATION RESPONSE signaling.

[0386] Step 5: The serving base station gNB activates the terminal's SRS transmission (Activate UE SRS transmission).

[0387] Step 6: The LMF sends the uplink SRS configuration information to the selected gNBs through NRPPa measurement request (NRPPa MEASUREMENT REQUEST) signaling.

[0388] The SRS configuration information includes all information required by the gNB / TRP to perform uplink measurements.

[0389] Step 7: The LMF entity sends an LPP Provide Assistance Data message to the UE.

[0390] Step 8: The LMF entity sends LPP Request Location Information to the UE.

[0391] Step 9a: The UE performs downlink positioning reference signal measurements (DL-PRS Measurements).

[0392] Step 9b: The serving base station and the neighboring base station perform uplink positioning reference signal measurements (UL-PRS Measurements).

[0393] Step 10: The UE sends LPP Provide Location Information to the LMF entity.

[0394] Step 11: The base station sends an NRPPa measurement response (NRPPa MEASUREMENT RESPONSE) to the LMF entity.

[0395] It should be noted that LPP refers to the positioning protocol, and its full name is: LTE Positioning Protocol, LPP. NRPPa refers to the NR positioning protocol copy, and its full name is: NR Positioning Protocol annex.

[0396] 3. Relative positioning technology of related technologies

[0397] Currently, positioning is mainly performed using received signal strength indicator (RSSI), time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA), angle of arrival (AOA) and frequency difference of arrival (FDOA).

[0398] In the positioning architecture of related technologies, after receiving a positioning request, the positioning server determines the positioning method and sends a measurement request to the terminal, requesting the terminal to perform positioning measurements using the corresponding method and submit the positioning results. Traditional perception systems obtain perception information through the terminal's sensors. However, within the coverage of mobile communication cellular networks, there are still no systems or networks that combine both communication and perception functions. With the improvement of mobile communication network coverage and the development of service-oriented networks, there is a need to integrate communication and perception networks so that the communication network can also perform perception functions.

[0399] Based on the above, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide an object perception method, device, server and base station to solve the technical problem of how to complete perception service needs without the help of terminals and realize the integration of communication networks and perception networks, which is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0400] 3 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an object perception method, which is applied to a server and includes the following steps:

[0401] Step 101: In response to a perception service request sent by a first device, determine at least one first base station and at least one second base station based on the perception indicators carried in the perception service request; wherein the first base station is used to send a detection signal, and the second base station is used to receive the detection signal.

[0402] In some embodiments, the first device is a terminal or a perception service client, and the first device sends a perception service request to the server based on business needs.

[0403] It should be noted that at least one first base station and at least one second base station may at least partially overlap, that is, some base stations may be used to send and receive detection signals at the same time.

[0404] In this step, after receiving the sensing service request sent by the first device, the server determines that the sensing service is performed by the base station based on the current sensing capabilities of the base station. Further, based on the sensing indicators carried in the sensing service request, at least one first base station and at least one second base station are determined.

[0405] Step 102: Send a first message to the first base station, where the first message is used to request the first base station to send the detection signal, and the first message carries the perception indicator.

[0406] Correspondingly, after receiving the first message, the first base station determines the configuration information of the detection signal according to the perception indicator, the perception capability of the base station and the configuration information of the base station, and sends the configuration information of the detection signal to the server.

[0407] The configuration information of the detection signal includes: resource information and / or waveform information of the detection signal;

[0417] In this step, the server requests the first base station to send a detection signal through a first message, and sends the indicator requirements (perception indicators) of this sensing service to the first base station.

[0418] Step 103: Receive a second message sent by the first base station, where the second message carries configuration information of the detection signal.

[0419] Step 104: According to the second message, a third message is sent to the second base station, where the third message is used to request the second base station to measure the detection signal and obtain a measurement result. The third message carries measurement quantity information and configuration information of the detection signal.

[0446] In the above embodiment, after receiving the perception service request sent by the first device, the server determines the base stations participating in the perception (i.e., at least one first base station for sending a detection signal and at least one second base station for receiving the detection signal) based on the perception indicator carried in the perception service request; further, a first message is sent to the first base station for requesting the first base station to send a detection signal, and the perception indicator is carried in the first message; a second message carrying the configuration information of the detection signal is received from the first base station; based on the second message, a third message is sent to the second base station for requesting the second base station to measure the detection signal and obtain the measurement result; and the measurement result is received from at least one second base station. In this way, object perception can be completed with the help of the communication network, and the integration of the communication network and the perception network can be realized. This embodiment can meet the requirements of the perception service, and can provide perception services through the network itself without the help of the terminal by using the mobile communication network, thereby reducing the dependence of the perception service on the terminal.

[0447] In some embodiments, in step 105 above, after receiving the measurement result sent by the at least one second base station, the method further includes:

[0448] Performing fusion processing on the measurement result sent by the at least one second base station to obtain a perception result;

[0449] Sending the sensing result to the first device;

[0459] In the above embodiment, after receiving the measurement results sent by at least one second base station, the server performs data fusion to clearly perceive the position, speed, size, distance and resolution, shape, and movement trajectory of the object.

[0460] In some embodiments, in step 101, determining at least one first base station and at least one second base station according to the perception indicator carried in the perception service request includes:

[0461] Determining a list of candidate base stations based on the service area information in the perception indicator;

[0462] The at least one first base station and the at least one second base station are determined from the candidate base station list according to the perception indicator, the perception capability of the base station and the configuration information of the base station.

[0463] In some embodiments, the configuration information of the base station refers to the base station's own attributes, such as the base station's antenna configuration, the base station's address, the base station's type, port number, working mode, etc.

[0464] In some embodiments, the sensing capability of the base station includes: the ability to measure sensing signals, the frequency band capability supporting the sensing signals, the measurement cycle capability supported, and the like.

[0465] In this embodiment, the server determines a candidate base station from the service area indicated by the service area information based on the service area information in the perception indicator, and then determines a list of base stations for sending detection signals (including at least one first base station) and a list of base stations for receiving detection signals (including at least one second base station) based on the perception capability of the candidate base station and the configuration information of the base station, as well as the indicator requirements of the perception service.

[0466] In some embodiments, the perception indicator includes at least one of the following:

[0483] It should be pointed out that resolution refers to the ability to distinguish two targets, that is, resolution represents the smallest "unit" of object data that can be output when distinguishing two objects.

[0484] For example, range resolution refers to the minimum distance between two targets that can be distinguished under the same angle and velocity conditions. Similarly, velocity resolution represents the ability to distinguish between targets at different speeds. It's understandable that if two targets are at different distances, even if they're close together, range resolution determines whether the gap between them can be discerned. The same applies to angle resolution and velocity resolution.

[0485] For example, the resolution of object volume refers to the minimum volume that can distinguish two different targets, and the resolution of object cross section refers to the minimum cross section that can distinguish two different targets.

[0486] It should be pointed out that the missed detection probability refers to the probability of not detecting a target that exists; the false alarm probability refers to the probability of misjudging a target that does not exist; and the missed alarm probability refers to the probability of misjudging a detection signal as no detection signal due to noise within the detection range.

[0487] Among them, the missed detection probability, false alarm probability and missed alarm probability affect the decision threshold of the measurement quantity. For example, the higher the missed detection rate, the lower the decision threshold.

[0488] It should be noted that the triggering conditions for this sensing service include:

[0489] Event type, i.e., a description of the specific triggering event conditions; and / or,

[0500] Region ID list;

[0501] RNA list;

[0502] Paging area list;

[0503] TRP ID list;

[0504] Geographic coordinate range.

[0505] In some embodiments, the geographic coordinate range may be represented by latitude and longitude coordinates or other types of coordinates.

[0506] It should be pointed out that the cell ID refers to the unique identifier of a cell, which is used to distinguish different cells; the base station ID refers to the identifier that distinguishes different base stations; the area ID refers to the division of the base station's coverage into different areas, and the identifier that distinguishes these areas is the area ID; the paging area refers to the area where the terminal is paged, and the paging area list is used to list different paging areas; the access network notification area RNA is used to search for UEs on the access network and is composed of several cells; the TRP ID refers to the identifier of the TRP, which is used to distinguish different TRPs.

[0595] The object perception method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is introduced below with reference to FIG6 .

[0596] As shown in Figure 6, the object perception method includes the following steps:

[0597] Step 1: The first device sends a sensing service request to the server;

[0598] In some embodiments, the first device is a terminal or a perception service client, and the first device sends a perception service request to the server based on business needs.

[0599] Step 2: The server selects a suitable base station to participate in this sensing service;

[0600] Specifically, the base stations participating in this sensing service include: a suitable sending base station (ie, the first base station) for sending the detection signal, and a suitable receiving base station (ie, the second base station) for receiving the detection signal.

[0601] Step 3: The server provides the sensing indicators in the sensing service request to each sending base station (gNB1 / TRP1).

[0602] Step 4: The sending base station (gNB1 / TRP1) determines the configuration information of the sounding signal.

[0603] Step 5: The sending base station (gNB1 / TRP1) provides the server with the configuration information of the sounding signal.

[0604] Step 6: The server requests sensing measurements from each receiving base station (gNB1 / TRP1, gNB2 / TRP2, gNB3 / TRP3, gNB4 / TRP4) and provides each receiving base station with the configuration information for the sounding signal.

[0608] Step 9: Each receiving base station (gNB1 / TRP1, gNB2 / TRP2, gNB3 / TRP3, gNB4 / TRP4) measures the echo signal of the probe signal.

[0609] Specifically, the receiving base station receives the echo signal of the detection signal reflected by the object, and obtains the measurement quantity of the perceived object by measuring the echo signal, including one or more of the following information combinations: the receiving power of the echo signal, los or nlos indication, the cross-section of the reflecting object, the receiving signal-to-noise ratio, pulse delay, Doppler frequency shift, measurement resolution and other information.

[0610] Step 10: Each receiving base station (gNB1 / TRP1, gNB2 / TRP2, gNB3 / TRP3, gNB4 / TRP4) sends the measurement results to the server.
