[0078] Satellite communications are widely used as an effective supplement to areas at sea and on land where terrestrial cellular communication systems lack signal coverage, particularly in ocean shipping, drilling, surveying, and fisheries. Satellite communications offer numerous advantages, including freedom from time, location, and environmental constraints, short activation times, long transmission distances, rapid network deployment, and communication costs unrelated to distance.

[0079] For satellite communications of non-geosynchronous satellites, terminal devices can access the satellite network within the coverage of the satellite. However, the coverage will change continuously. If the coverage of the satellite moves to other areas, the terminal device will disconnect the satellite communication with the satellite. Due to the variability of satellite communications, more consideration is given to how to ensure traditional business needs such as call quality. With the continuous increase in business demands in satellite networks, there is a trend to add perception measurement. However, compared with the relatively stable communication connection in the terrestrial cellular network, there is a lack of perception measurement configuration in the satellite communication system, which makes it impossible for the terminal device to report the perception object information obtained by its perception measurement to the satellite network equipment, and it is unable to meet more business needs.

[0080] To this end, this embodiment proposes a communication processing method and apparatus. A terminal device receives a sensing measurement configuration sent by a satellite network device and then, based on the sensing measurement configuration, transmits sensing object information obtained through the sensing measurement to the satellite network device. By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the sensing measurement configuration can be incorporated into a satellite communication system, allowing the terminal device to report sensing object information obtained through the sensing measurement to the satellite network device based on the sensing measurement configuration.

[0081] The communication processing method and device provided by the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0082] FIG1 shows a structural diagram of a communication processing system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG1 , the system architecture may include a satellite network device 11 and a terminal device 12 .

[0083] In some examples, the satellite network device 11 may be an entity on the network side for transmitting or receiving signals. For example, the satellite network device may include a communication satellite, an evolved NodeB (eNB), a transmission reception point (TRP), a next generation NodeB (gNB) in an NR system, a base station in other future mobile communication systems, or an access node in a wireless fidelity (WiFi) system. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific technology and specific device form adopted by the satellite network device 11. The satellite network device 11 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be composed of a central unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU), wherein the CU may also be referred to as a control unit. The CU-DU structure may be used to split the protocol layer of a network device, such as a base station, and the functions of some protocol layers are placed in the CU for centralized control, while the functions of the remaining part or all of the protocol layers are distributed in the DU, and the DU is centrally controlled by the CU.

[0084] In some examples, the terminal device 12 can be called a terminal, user equipment, mobile station (MS), mobile terminal (MT), etc. The terminal device 12 can also be a car with communication functions, a smart car, a mobile phone, a wearable device, a tablet computer (Pad), a computer with wireless transceiver functions, a virtual reality device, an augmented reality device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in self-driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical surgery, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, a wireless terminal device in a smart home, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific technology and specific device form adopted by the terminal device 12.

[0085] It can be understood that the communication processing system described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0086] The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to the communication processing system shown in Figure 1, or a portion thereof, but are not limited thereto. The entities shown in Figure 1 are illustrative only. The communication processing system may include all or part of the entities shown in Figure 1, or may include other entities outside of Figure 1. The number and form of the entities may be arbitrary. The connection relationship between the entities is illustrative only. The entities may be connected or disconnected, and the connection may be in any manner, whether direct or indirect, and wired or wireless.

[0087] The embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to satellite communications, Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5GNR, Future Radio Access (FRA), New-Radio Access Technology (RAT), New Radio (NR), New Radio Access (NX), Future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, Ultra-WideBand (UWB), Bluetooth (registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems based on and extending these methods. Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).

[0088] In some examples, the satellite network device 11 sends a perception measurement configuration to the terminal device 12, that is, the satellite network device sends the perception measurement configuration of the terminal device 12 to the terminal device, and the terminal device 12 can receive the perception measurement configuration, and then the terminal device 12 sends the perception object information obtained by the perception measurement to the satellite network device 11 according to the perception measurement configuration.

[0089] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, it is possible to add a perception measurement configuration to the satellite communication system, so that the terminal device 12 can report the perception object information obtained by the perception measurement to the satellite network device 11 according to the perception measurement configuration.

[0090] Furthermore, to illustrate the specific execution process of the above-mentioned communication processing system, FIG2 shows a timing diagram of a communication processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to the above-mentioned communication processing system, as shown in FIG2, and may include the following steps:

[0091] Step 201: The satellite network device sends a sensing measurement configuration to the terminal device.

[0092] In some embodiments, the perception measurement configuration may be used to instruct the terminal device to report perception measurement object information to the satellite network device.

[0093] In some embodiments, a perception measurement configuration may be used to instruct a terminal device to perform a perception measurement. That is, when a terminal receives the perception measurement configuration, the terminal performs corresponding perception measurements according to the perception measurement configuration to obtain perception measurement results. For example, a terminal device may measure a perception object near the terminal based on the information in the perception measurement configuration and report the measured object information to a satellite network device.

[0094] In some embodiments, the perception measurement configuration may be used to instruct the terminal device to perform perception measurement and report the perception measurement result to the satellite network device.

[0095] It should be understood that the terminal device's behavior of performing perception measurements may not depend on the perception measurement configuration. For example, the terminal device may perform perception measurements based on the configuration of a base network device different from the satellite network device or based on a protocol agreement, and upon receiving the perception measurement configuration, report the perception measurement results to the satellite network device. Alternatively, the terminal device may additionally perform perception measurements after receiving the perception measurement configuration and report the measurement results to the satellite network device.

[0096] In some embodiments, if the terminal device initiates a perception service, the satellite network device may send the perception measurement configuration of the terminal device when requiring the terminal device to report perception object information.

[0097] For example, the terminal device may be a vehicle. When the vehicle is just started, the satellite network device may send a perception measurement configuration to the vehicle in order to analyze the surrounding environment of the vehicle, thereby instructing the vehicle to report the perception object information of objects around it to the satellite network device.

[0098] In some embodiments, the satellite network device may send the perception measurement configuration to the terminal device, or send the perception measurement configuration to the terminal device through other network devices, etc.

[0099] In some embodiments, the perception measurement configuration includes at least one or more of the following (a1, a2, a3):

[0100] a1. The first identifier of the object to be sensed and measured; the object to be sensed and measured may refer to an object requiring sensing and measurement, such as a vehicle, person, or other object, and may be referred to as a target cluster. If the satellite network device knows in advance which objects are near the terminal device, it may pre-specify the objects that the terminal device needs to sense and measure, and issue a corresponding first identifier, such as an object identifier (ObjectID). This allows the terminal device to carry the corresponding ObjectID when subsequently reporting object information, allowing the satellite network device to clearly identify the object to which the reported object information corresponds. If the satellite network device does not know in advance which objects are near the terminal device, it may also allocate some ObjectIDs. This allows the terminal device to carry the corresponding ObjectID when subsequently reporting object information, allowing the satellite network device to clearly identify the object identifier corresponding to the reported object information.

[0101] a2. The second identifier of the trigger reporting configuration; the trigger reporting configuration may refer to the configuration of trigger reporting conditions for the terminal device to report object information, that is, under what conditions can the perception measurement object information be reported. For example, the satellite network device and the terminal device may pre-agreed on the trigger reporting configuration and the second identifier corresponding to each configuration, such as the report configuration identifier (Report config ID). In this way, the satellite network device can subsequently indicate which trigger reporting configuration to use by issuing the Report config ID. It should be noted that in addition to this, the satellite network device may also directly issue the trigger reporting configuration to be used.

[0102] a3. A third identifier for the perception measurement, where the third identifier can be used to determine the association between the first identifier and the second identifier, thereby clarifying the trigger reporting configuration used for the target object under test. For example, the satellite network device issues a third identifier for the perception measurement, such as a measurement identifier (Measure ID). Based on the ObjectID and Report config ID in the above example, the Measure ID can be used to determine the association between the ObjectID and the Report config ID. The terminal device can use the Measure ID to determine the trigger reporting configuration used for each object under test.

[0103] For example, the satellite network device can send down multiple first identifiers (a11, a12, a13), multiple second identifiers (a21, a22, a23) and multiple third identifiers (a31, a32, a33), wherein the third identifier a31 indicates the association relationship between the first identifier a11 and the second identifier a21, that is, the measurement object to be perceived corresponding to the first identifier a11 needs to use the trigger reporting configuration corresponding to the second identifier a21; the third identifier a32 indicates the association relationship between the first identifier a12 and the second identifier a22, that is, the measurement object to be perceived corresponding to the first identifier a12 needs to use the trigger reporting configuration corresponding to the second identifier a22; the third identifier a33 indicates the association relationship between the first identifier a13 and the second identifier a23, that is, the measurement object to be perceived corresponding to the first identifier a13 needs to use the trigger reporting configuration corresponding to the second identifier a23.

[0104] For another example, the satellite network device may also issue a single first identifier b11 and a single second identifier b21. Based on the first identifier b11 and the second identifier b21, the terminal device may determine that the first identifier b11 and the second identifier b21 are associated. That is, the to-be-sensed measurement object corresponding to the first identifier b11 requires the trigger reporting configuration corresponding to the second identifier b21. In other words, when the satellite network device issues a single first identifier and a single second identifier, the third identifier may be optional. That is, when the satellite network device issues a single first identifier and a single second identifier, the terminal device may default to the association of the first identifier and the second identifier.

[0105] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the trigger reporting configuration may specifically include: a trigger reporting type; and a perception intensity threshold corresponding to the trigger reporting type. Different trigger reporting types represent different trigger reporting conditions. In this embodiment, each trigger reporting type may have a corresponding perception intensity threshold, which can be pre-set based on actual needs.

[0106] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the trigger reporting type includes at least one of the following:

[0107] Event-triggered reporting type; periodically triggered reporting type.

[0108] For example, for event-triggered reporting types, that is, when a perception object meets a certain event, the relevant parameters of the perception object are reported, that is, when the perception object targeted by the perception measurement meets a specific event, the perception measurement result is reported. For example, when the perception object strength corresponding to object a is greater than the set perception strength threshold (Th1), the perception object related parameters of object a are reported; for another example, when the perception object strength corresponding to object b is greater than the set perception strength threshold (Th1) and lasts for a certain preset time length, the perception object related parameters of object b are reported; for another example, when the perception object strength corresponding to object c is greater than the set perception strength threshold (Th1) and exceeds a certain threshold of Th1, the perception object related parameters of object c are reported. Regarding the specific reporting standard, it can be set as needed, and the present disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0109] For another example, for a periodically triggered reporting type, parameters related to objects that can be perceived around the terminal device and whose perception intensity is greater than a set perception intensity threshold (Th2) are periodically reported. Alternatively, the terminal device can report all parameters related to the perceived objects perceived in the surrounding area to the satellite network device. The reporting period, that is, the time interval between two reports of perception measurement results, can be set according to actual needs.

[0110] In some embodiments, the sensing measurement configuration sent in step 201 may be updated by the satellite network device based on the sensing measurement configuration sent to the terminal device last time. The update of the last sensing measurement configuration may be divided into addition, modification, and deletion.

[0111] For example, the satellite network device determines the target object among these objects that needs further perception and measurement based on the perception object information last reported by the terminal device M, including object A information, object B information and object C information. If it is necessary to continue to perceive and measure objects A and B, then based on the perception measurement configuration last sent to the terminal device M, the relevant configuration of object C can be deleted, and the relevant configuration of objects A and B can be retained. Then, the updated perception measurement configuration can be sent to the terminal device M. In this way, the terminal device M can report the latest perception measurement information of objects A and B to the satellite network device based on the updated perception measurement configuration.

[0112] If, based on actual conditions, it is determined that the trigger reporting type for object A needs to be changed from a periodic trigger reporting type to an event trigger reporting type, the perception measurement configuration sent to the terminal device M last time can be used to modify the relevant configuration of object A, and then the updated perception measurement configuration can be sent to the terminal device M. In this way, the terminal device M can report the relevant parameters of the perception object to the satellite network device based on the updated perception measurement configuration when it is determined that object a meets a certain event.

[0113] If the satellite network device determines that there is an object D near the terminal device M based on the perception object information reported by other terminal devices, it can add the relevant configuration of object D based on the perception measurement configuration sent to the terminal device M last time, and retain the relevant configuration of objects A, B and C, and then send the updated perception measurement configuration to the terminal device M. In this way, the terminal device M can report the latest perception measurement information of objects A, B, C and D to the satellite network device based on the updated perception measurement configuration.

[0114] In some embodiments, the perception measurement configuration may also include configuration information instructing the terminal device on how to perform perception measurements on the object to be measured. Accordingly, after receiving the perception measurement configuration, the terminal device may perform perception measurements according to the perception measurement configuration to obtain perception object information, and then transmit the perception object information to the satellite network device.

[0115] For example, the perception measurement configuration includes instructing the terminal device to send a perception signal, and the terminal device receives the perception signal, and then the terminal device analyzes the received perception signal to determine the relevant perception parameters of the object to be measured. The perception measurement configuration may also include instructing the terminal device on how to obtain the relevant perception parameters of the object to be measured, such as requiring the terminal device to obtain the distance, speed, and angle corresponding to the object to be measured, and measure the departure angle and arrival angle corresponding to the object to be measured, as well as the unit accuracy to be used for these parameters, etc. These perception measurement configurations can be configured by the satellite network device based on the perception measurement capability information of the terminal device, such as configuring the perception measurement configuration of the terminal device in a targeted manner based on the perception measurement capabilities supported by the terminal device.

[0116] Step 202: The terminal device receives the sensing measurement configuration sent by the satellite network device.

[0117] Step 203: The terminal device sends the perception object information obtained by the perception measurement to the satellite network device according to the perception measurement configuration.

[0118] For example, the terminal device may perform targeted perception measurement on the target object according to the target object indicated for measurement in the perception measurement configuration, and then send the perception object information of the target object obtained from the measurement to the satellite network device.

[0119] For another example, the terminal device will perform perception measurements on objects around it according to the instructions of the terrestrial cellular network device, and the satellite network device can send down the perception measurement configuration, instructing the terminal device to send all or part of the perception object information obtained by its perception measurement to the satellite network device.

[0120] In some embodiments, as an implementation method, step 203 may specifically include: determining that the trigger reporting type of the first perception object among the objects to be perceived and measured is an event trigger reporting type, and a first perception strength threshold corresponding to the event trigger reporting type; when the perception strength corresponding to the first perception object is greater than the first perception strength threshold, the perception object information obtained by the perception measurement of the first perception object is sent to the satellite network device.

[0121] For example, there is an object N1 around the terminal device. According to the trigger reporting configuration for object N1 issued by the satellite network device, when the perception object strength corresponding to object N1 is greater than the set perception strength threshold, the perception object information of object N1, that is, the perception object related parameters, is reported to the satellite network device.

[0122] In some embodiments, as another implementation method, step 203 may specifically include: determining that the trigger reporting type is a periodic trigger reporting type, and a second perception strength threshold corresponding to the periodic trigger reporting type; then, according to a preset time interval, determining a second perception object among the objects to be perceived and measured whose perception strength is greater than the second perception strength threshold, and sending the perception object information obtained from the perception measurement of the second perception object to the satellite network device.

[0123] In some embodiments, the preset time interval may be agreed upon through a protocol, or determined through a system message, or determined through instruction information sent by a satellite network device, or determined according to a perception measurement configuration sent by a satellite network device, and so on.

[0124] For example, if the reporting type is periodically triggered, the terminal device may report information about perceptual objects around the terminal device that are perceptible and whose perceptual strength is greater than a set perceptual strength threshold every 10 seconds. If the satellite network device receives the perceptual object information periodically reported by the terminal device and determines that it is necessary to shorten the reporting interval, it may send an updated perceptual measurement configuration to the terminal device, so that the terminal device can report information about perceptual objects around the terminal device that are perceptible and whose perceptual strength is greater than the set perceptual strength threshold every 2 seconds.

[0125] In some embodiments, the perceived object information includes at least one of the following (b1 to b10):

[0126] b1. The coordinate position of the perceived object in the coordinate system, which can be used to determine the position information of the perceived object;

[0127] b2. The RCS corresponding to the perceived object can be used to determine the type of the perceived object. For example, based on the size of the RCS area, it can be determined whether the object is a person, a vehicle, or another animal.

[0128] b3. The perceived signal power corresponding to the perceived object, which can be used to determine the signal strength of the perceived measurement signal;

[0129] b4. The perception signal delay corresponding to the perception object can be used to determine the signal quality of the perception measurement signal;

[0130] b5. The angle measurement result corresponding to the perceived object can be used to determine the direction of the perceived object;

[0131] b6, the angle expansion corresponding to the perceived object;

[0132] b7, the initial phase corresponding to the perceived object;

[0133] b8. The motion state of the perceived object can be used to determine the speed and direction of the perceived object;

[0134] b9. The coordinate position of the terminal device in the coordinate system, which can be used to determine the location information of the terminal device;

[0135] b10. The motion state corresponding to the terminal device can be used to determine the motion speed and direction of the terminal device, etc.

[0136] It should be noted that the perception object information may include but is not limited to the contents shown in b1 to b10 above.

[0137] In some embodiments, the method of this embodiment may further include: the terminal device determines the above-mentioned coordinate system based on the first information.

[0140] System messages; perception measurement configuration.
