[0019] As mentioned earlier, in the communications field, communication systems have different requirements for communication and perception, necessitating a separate design and deployment of these two functions. For example, 4G communication systems require the addition of radar equipment to existing communication equipment to measure speed and perform sensing and imaging of nearby terminal devices. However, this separate design and deployment approach wastes resources such as spectrum and hardware.

[0020] In light of this, this application aims to propose an integrated synaesthesia solution that can achieve both communication and perception functions through a single set of antenna equipment, thereby saving spectrum and antenna resources. For example, in the field of communications, the communication and perception functions can be achieved through the target antenna in the existing communication equipment of the base station.

[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this specification, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this specification, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this specification, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this specification.

[0022] On the one hand, an embodiment of the present application provides a synaesthesia integration method that can be applied to any synaesthesia integration device, such as a base station in the field of communications. Figure 1 is a flow chart of the synaesthesia integration method of this embodiment, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0023] S102: When a target object needs to be sensed, the target object is detected based on a passive detection technology to obtain a detection distance of the target object.

[0024] In this embodiment, passive detection technology does not transmit any signals (does not occupy spectrum resources), but instead detects the target object through electromagnetic signals emitted by the target object itself. It should be noted that determining the detection distance of the target object is an existing function of passive detection technology and will not be further described here.

[0025] The perception used in synaesthesia integration is active detection technology. Unlike passive detection, active detection technology sends electromagnetic wave signals to the target object and detects the echo signals reflected by the target object. In other words, in this embodiment, detecting the target object using passive detection technology and synaesthesia integration are independent processes.

[0026] S104: Determine a target signal transmission mode suitable for sensing the detection distance.

[0027] This embodiment implements both communication and perception functions based on target antennas. Specifically, the target antenna acts as both a communication antenna and a perception antenna, utilizing the same spectrum resources. To this end, the communication signal transmission mode can be adapted based on the perception needs of the target object, maximizing perception benefits while still achieving communication.

[0028] For example, when sensing a close-range target, the short transmission time of the target's echo signal should be avoided. This is because if the switching time is longer than the echo transmission time, the echo signal may be lost during the switching process, resulting in a perception blind spot.

[0029] To this end, this embodiment can adopt a full-duplex target signal transmission mode when the detection distance meets the preset short-range standard. It should be noted that the existing communication antenna is composed of multiple antenna channels, and each antenna channel can be regarded as a sub-antenna. Full-duplex means that in the communication time slot, the communication signal is sent based on a part of the antenna channels of the target antenna, and the communication signal is received based on another part of the antenna channels at the same time, and in the perception time slot, the perception signal is sent based on a part of the antenna channels of the target antenna, and the perception signal is received based on another part of the antenna channels at the same time. It can be seen that full-duplex is a bidirectional data transmission mode in which "reception" and "transmission" are carried out simultaneously, and no switching is required. Therefore, it is suitable for sensing target objects at a close distance.

[0030] For example, when sensing a target object at a medium or long distance, the target object's echo signal transmission time is relatively long, which provides time for switching between communication transmission and reception. Therefore, the target antenna can be appropriately controlled to "receive" and "transmit" in a time-sharing manner to reduce the impact of interference signals.

[0031] To this end, this embodiment can employ a time-division duplex (TD) target signal transmission mode when the detection range meets the preset medium- to long-range range standard. TD refers to the time-division duplex (TD) transmission and reception of communication signals based on all channels of the target antenna during communication time slots, and the time-division duplex transmission and reception of sensing signals based on all channels of the target antenna during sensing time slots. TD is a unidirectional data transmission mode that isolates the transmission and reception times, preventing interference and improving sensing stability.

[0032] It should be noted that the above-mentioned short-range and medium-to-long-range standards can be flexibly set according to actual circumstances and are not specifically limited here. However, the distance requirement corresponding to the medium-to-long-range standard should be greater than the distance requirement corresponding to the short-range standard. For example, if the distance requirement of the short-range standard is within 0 to 100 meters, the distance requirement of the medium-to-long-range standard should be at least 100 meters. In addition, when receiving a communication signal or a perception signal, this embodiment can identify the communication signal or perception signal based on the characteristic information in the received signal.

[0033] S106 , performing communication processing based on the target antenna in a communication time slot according to a target signal transmission mode, and performing sensing processing based on the target antenna in a sensing time slot.

[0034] It should be understood that in traditional integrated synaesthesia solutions, communication processing is performed by the communication device, while perception processing is performed by the radar equipment. In other words, communication and perception are performed independently. Unlike traditional solutions, this embodiment uses the same target antenna to achieve both communication and perception. To achieve this, the time slot is divided into communication time slots and perception time slots. In other words, the target antenna is dedicated to synaesthesia processing during the communication time slot and to perception processing during the perception time slot.

[0035] In a feasible implementation, this embodiment performs resource allocation for communication time slots and sensing time slots based on the load of the communication service and / or the sensing service.

[0036] Taking the example of time slot resource allocation based on communication service load, this embodiment appropriately allocates sensing time slots, ensuring that the number of communication time slots is sufficient to support the communication service load. For example, if the current communication service load requires that 8 out of every 10 time slots be used for communication, the time slot ratio between communication time slots and sensing time slots should not be less than 8:2.

[0037] Taking the time slot resource allocation based on the load of the sensing service as an example, this embodiment appropriately allocates communication time slots, ensuring that the number of sensing time slots is sufficient to support the load of the sensing service. For example, if the current sensing service load requires that 4 time slots out of every 10 time slots be used for sensing, the time slot ratio between communication time slots and sensing time slots should not exceed 6:4.

[0038] Taking the example of time slot resource allocation based on the load of communication services and sensing services, this embodiment can configure communication time slots and sensing time slots based on the load ratio between communication services and sensing services. For example, if the current load ratio of communication services to sensing services is 7:3, the time slot ratio between communication time slots and sensing time slots should also be 7:3, that is, 7 time slots out of 10 time slots are used for communication, and the remaining 3 time slots are used for sensing.

[0039] In practical applications, this embodiment can deploy a detection antenna alongside the target antenna. This detection antenna uses passive detection technology to detect the target object. During full-duplex and time-division dual-mode conversion, the detection antenna compensates for blind spots caused by antenna channel switching. Furthermore, based on the above, active detection technology can be deployed on the detection antenna to detect the target object during the sensing time slot, assisting the target antenna in locking onto the target object. It should be noted that the detection antenna in this embodiment uses active detection technology only during the sensing time slot to avoid interference with communications.

[0040] In summary, the method of this embodiment uses passive detection technology to detect the target object when it is necessary to perceive the target object, and obtains the detection distance of the target object; then, the detection distance of the target object is used as the perception requirement to adapt the signal transmission mode used in a communication, so that communication processing is performed based on the target antenna in the communication time slot according to the adapted signal transmission mode, and perception processing is performed based on the target antenna in the perception time slot. Based on the method of the embodiment, only one set of target antennas needs to be deployed to realize the two functions of communication and perception. Compared with the traditional separate deployment of the integrated synaesthesia solution, it can save spectrum and hardware resources. In addition, in the synaesthesia process, the signal transmission mode is adapted according to the detection distance of the target object determined by the passive detection technology, which can improve the perception accuracy of the target object, thereby optimizing the perception benefit of the target object on the basis of achieving communication. At the same time, based on the passive detection technology, it can also assist in locking the target object during the synaesthesia process, making up for the blind spot that may be formed when the target antenna switches the signal transmission mode.

[0041] The application of the synaesthesia integration method of this embodiment is introduced below.

[0042] Specifically, the method of this embodiment is used to implement a base station with integrated interaesthesia. FIG2 is a schematic diagram of the implementation architecture of the method of this embodiment applied to the base station side, including:

[0043] The baseband processing unit 210 is used to generate a data source and analyze and forward received communication signals and perception signals.

[0044] The synaesthesia transmitting digital unit 220 is used to perform digital modulation and filtering processing on the data source.

[0045] The RF transmission unit 230 is used to perform frequency conversion, filtering and amplification processing on the signal.

[0046] Intelligent processing unit 240 is responsible for classifying communication and perception signals based on the information carried by the signals. It then processes the classified communication and perception signals separately to facilitate analysis and processing of the relevant data by baseband processing unit 210. It also intelligently schedules full-duplex and time-division duplex modes based on the distance of the "target object" from the base station.

[0047] The synaesthesia receiving radio frequency unit 250 is used to amplify, mix and filter the received communication signals and perception signals.

[0048] The synaesthesia antenna 260 is composed of multiple antenna channels and can transmit and receive communication signals and perception signals in two modes: full duplex or time division duplex.

[0049] The detection antenna 270 is used to complete the initial scanning and target processing of the target object during the communication time slot, saving the perception overhead; and, during the perception time slot, it is used together with the synaesthesia channel to actively perceive the position of the target object, and assist the synaesthesia antenna 260 in locking the target object. Among them, the detection antenna 270 is composed of a small antenna array and a receiving radio frequency unit. The receiving radio frequency unit is responsible for controlling the small antenna array to transmit and receive perception signals. The receiving radio frequency unit can reuse the existing feedback channel for power detection in the base station, thereby saving occupied volume to support flexible placement. In this application scenario, the detection antenna and the synaesthesia antenna can be uniformly scheduled and processed by the base station to realize the waveform integration of communication and perception, as well as the coordinated control of beams, signal synchronization, and services.

[0050] On the basis of the above, the base station of this embodiment can dynamically allocate communication time slots and perception time slots in real time according to the load of communication services and perception services, so as to flexibly coordinate and deploy communication resources. As an example, assuming that the priority of the communication service of the base station is higher than that of the perception service, the maximum proportion of the perception overhead can be set to 20%, as long as the perception time slot does not exceed 20%. For example, the number of communication time slots and perception time slots can be configured in a ratio of 9:1 between communication time slots and perception time slots, so that the perception overhead is at a level of 10%; for another example, the current communication overhead accounts for 10%. Without changing the proportion of communication overhead, only the perception time slot is configured to keep the perception overhead at a level of 5%.

[0051] Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of the synaesthesia antenna 260 performing sensing. Communication time slots are represented by white squares, and sensing time slots are represented by black squares. The antenna channels of the synaesthesia antenna 260 are further divided into a sensing transmit channel and a sensing receive channel. Whenever a sensing time slot is entered, the sensing transmit channel transmits a sensing signal to the target object. This sensing signal, after being echoed by the target object, is then received by the sensing receive channel.

[0052] Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of a base station sensing a drone (target object). Point A is the base station location, the distance from point B to point A is the short distance from the base station, and the distance from point C to point A is the medium to long distance from the base station.

[0053] Phase 1 involves the base station sensing a drone in close proximity. During the sensing time slot, the synaesthesia antenna operates in full-duplex mode, with antenna channels 0-m transmitting sensing signals and mn receiving them, where n is a positive integer in the range [0, m]. Simultaneously, the detection antenna remains in active reception (active detection technology), assisting the synaesthesia antenna in continuously tracking the drone.

[0054] Phase 2 involves the base station sensing drones at medium and long distances. During the sensing time slot, the telemetry antenna operates in time-division duplex mode. Its 0-m and mn antenna channels either transmit or receive sensing signals simultaneously, eliminating self-interference. Simultaneous transmission and reception across antenna channels also enhances energy, significantly improving sensing range. Furthermore, all antenna channels utilize a cyclic prefix (CP) to switch between transmit and receive. This time-consuming switching, resulting in blind spots, can be compensated by the detection antenna. In other words, the detection antenna remains in active reception during Phase 2, assisting the telemetry antenna in continuously tracking the drone.

[0055] Furthermore, when entering the communication time slot, the detection antenna remains in a passive receiving state (passive detection technology), utilizing broadcast and service beams to passively sense near and far targets. The broadcast beam has relatively low power and is suitable for preliminary scanning of close-range drones, enabling tagging and tracking. The service beam has relatively high power and can perform preliminary scanning of both medium- and long-range drones within the same beam coverage, enabling tagging and tracking. It should be understood that the detection antenna's tracking and tagging of drones in a passive receiving state improves its efficiency in locking onto drones in an active receiving state.

[0056] During the above-mentioned communication and perception process, the intelligent processing unit 240 will dynamically extract parameter information based on the perception signal, generate a real-time message for each slot, classify and process the communication signal and perception signal, adjust the beam of the antenna array unit 150, switch the signal transmission mode, and control the switching of the transmission and reception of the synaesthesia transmitting RF unit 230 and the synaesthesia receiving RF unit 250 to achieve communication perception collaboration and track long and short distance targets without blind spots.

[0057] Figure 5 illustrates a schematic diagram of base station interaceptive collaboration. During communication, the base station can accurately lock onto the communicating user based on the sensing signals of various targets in the environment (such as communicating users, drones, and vehicles), thereby providing more precise communication services. During sensing, the base station uses passive detection technology with its detection antenna to calibrate the environment and the communicating user during the communication time slot. During the sensing time slot, the interaceptive antenna accurately tracks the communicating user. Throughout this process, the communication beam adapts to the changing position of the communicating user in the environment.

[0058] On the other hand, corresponding to the synaesthesia integration method shown in FIG1 , another embodiment of the present application further provides a synaesthesia integration system. FIG6 is a schematic structural diagram of the synaesthesia integration system, comprising:

[0059] The detection antenna 610 detects the target object based on passive detection technology when it is necessary to sense the target object, and obtains the detection distance of the target object; the controller 620 is used to determine the target signal transmission mode suitable for sensing at the detection distance; the synaesthesia antenna 630 is used to perform communication processing in the communication time slot and sensing processing in the sensing time slot according to the signal transmission mode.

[0060] When the system of this embodiment needs to perceive the target object, it uses passive detection technology to detect the target object and obtains the detection distance of the target object; then, the detection distance of the target object is used as the perception requirement to adapt the signal transmission mode used in a communication, so that communication processing is performed based on the target antenna in the communication time slot according to the adapted signal transmission mode, and perception processing is performed based on the target antenna in the perception time slot. Based on the system of the embodiment, only one set of target antennas needs to be deployed to realize the two functions of communication and perception. Compared with the traditional separate deployment of the integrated synaesthesia solution, it can save spectrum and hardware resources. In addition, during the synaesthesia process, the signal transmission mode is adapted according to the detection distance of the target object determined by the passive detection technology, which can improve the perception accuracy of the target object, thereby optimizing the perception benefit of the target object on the basis of achieving communication. At the same time, based on the passive detection technology, it can also assist in locking the target object during the synaesthesia process, making up for the blind spot that may be formed when the target antenna switches the signal transmission mode.

[0063] Optionally, the synaesthesia antenna 630 includes multiple antenna channels;

[0064] The controller 620 is specifically configured to: in a full-duplex signal transmission mode, transmit communication signals based on some antenna channels of the synaesthesia antenna 630 during a communication time slot, and simultaneously receive communication signals based on another portion of the antenna channels; and, in a sensing time slot, transmit perception signals based on some antenna channels of the synaesthesia antenna 630, and simultaneously receive perception signals based on another portion of the antenna channels. In a time-division duplex signal transmission mode, transmit and receive communication signals based on all channels of the synaesthesia antenna 630 during a communication time slot, and, in a sensing time slot, transmit and receive perception signals based on all channels of the synaesthesia antenna 630 during a time-division duplex signal transmission mode.

[0065] Optionally, the system of this embodiment includes: a time slot configuration module, which is used to perform communication processing based on the target antenna in the communication time slot, and, before performing perception processing based on the target antenna in the perception time slot, perform resource configuration on the communication time slot and the perception time slot based on the load of the communication service and / or the perception service.

[0066] Obviously, the synaesthesia integration system of this embodiment can serve as the execution subject of the method shown in FIG1 , and thus can implement the steps and functions of the method shown in FIG1 .

[0067] FIG7 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG7 , at the hardware level, the electronic device includes a processor, and optionally also includes an internal bus, a network interface, and a memory. Among them, the memory may include a memory, such as a high-speed random access memory (RAM), and may also include a non-volatile memory (non-volatile memory), such as at least one disk storage, etc. Of course, the electronic device may also include hardware required for other services.

The electronic device based on the embodiment only needs to deploy a set of target antennas to realize the two functions of communication and perception, which can save spectrum and hardware resources compared to the traditional separate deployment of the integrated synaesthesia solution. In addition, in the synaesthesia process, the signal transmission mode is adapted according to the detection distance of the target object determined by the passive detection technology, which can improve the perception accuracy of the target object, thereby optimizing the perception benefit of the target object on the basis of achieving communication. At the same time, based on the passive detection technology, it can also assist in locking the target object during the synaesthesia process, making up for the blind spot that may be formed when the target antenna switches the signal transmission mode.
