[0103] For ease of understanding, some of the contents involved in the embodiments of this application are described below:
[0104] Sensing and communication systems are usually designed separately and occupy different frequency bands. Integrated Sensing And Communication (ISAC) enables sensing and communication systems to share the same frequency band and hardware, improving frequency efficiency and reducing hardware costs. ISAC will become a key technology for future wireless communication systems to support many important application scenarios. Typical applications of ISAC include: navigation and obstacle avoidance for autonomous vehicles, indoor positioning and activity recognition based on IEEE 802.11 (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) wireless signals, communication and sensing for unmanned aerial vehicles, extended reality (XR), radar and communication integration, etc. Each application has different requirements, limitations and regulatory issues. ISAC has attracted great research interest and attention from academia and industry.
[0105] ISAC achieves low-cost, integrated communication and perception capabilities through shared hardware and software-defined functions. Its key features include: a unified and simplified architecture; reconfigurable and scalable functions; and improved efficiency and reduced costs. The advantages of integrated communication and perception are threefold: reduced equipment cost and size; improved spectrum utilization; and enhanced system performance.
[0106] In the embodiment of the present application, typical communication perception integration scenarios that are expected to be achieved through technical upgrades based on the communication system architecture are shown in Table 1 below.
[0107] Table 1 Typical scenarios of communication perception integration
[0108] The convergence of communication and perception implies both resource sharing and competition in terms of time, frequency, space, power, computing, storage, and data transmission. However, the objectives of communication and perception in this convergence are different. Communication targets bearer efficiency, and the theoretical upper bound based on the Shannon equation measures this efficiency through channel capacity, signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio, spectral efficiency, and bit error rate. Perception targets perception accuracy, and the theoretical lower bound based on the Cramer-Rao bound measures this accuracy through positioning accuracy (including horizontal and vertical accuracy), velocity accuracy (including horizontal and vertical accuracy), perception resolution, refresh rate, missed detection probability, false alarm probability, recognition accuracy, and maximum perception service latency.
[0109] Resource contention in communication and perception convergence involves operators counting and limiting the perception overhead of network devices based on service models and other requirements, and users counting and limiting the perception overhead of user devices based on their own needs. With the introduction of perception, excessive perception traffic may cause base stations / UEs to be captured, shut down, and deny communication services. Alternatively, excessive communication traffic may cause base stations / UEs to be captured, shut down, and deny perception services. Specifically, with the introduction of perception services, the primary information transferred between devices in the communication system is perception or communication-related information itself, with the lack of transmission of other parameters, which impacts the service performance of the communication system. Furthermore, the resource contention issues in communication and perception convergence require appropriate technical solutions.
[0110] The information transmission method, apparatus, device and medium provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to some embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0111] Referring to FIG. 2 , FIG. 2 is a flowchart of an information transmission method provided in an embodiment of the present application, which is used for a first device. As shown in FIG. 2 , the method includes the following steps:
[0112] Step 201: The first device performs a first operation, where the first operation includes at least one of the following:
[0113] Sending a first message to a second device, where the first message includes first information;
[0114] receiving a second message sent by a second device, where the second message includes the first information;
[0115] The first information includes at least one of a first parameter and a second parameter, wherein the first parameter includes at least one of a target parameter, and the second parameter is determined based on multiple target parameters, wherein the target parameter includes at least two of the following:
[0116] Number of perception tasks;
[0117] Number of perceived targets;
[0118] Perceive the resources of relevant information transmission;
[0119] Perceive the resource usage of relevant information transmission;
[0120] The throughput of perceptually relevant information transmission;
[0121] The throughput ratio of perception-related information transmission;
[0122] The number of times the relevant geographic location is reported;
[0123] The number of connected devices participating in the perception or the proportion of devices.
[0124] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first device can be a terminal, a network side device (for example, a base station, a network management function node), and the second device can be a network side device (for example, a base station, a network management function node) or a sensing function (Sensing Function, SF), wherein the above-mentioned sensing function can be called a sensing network function, which can be a functional node of the core network or other functional nodes independent of the core network.
[0125] In an embodiment of the present application, the first device can perform transmission of the first information with the second device, and specifically can be used to receive at least one of the first information and send the first information, wherein the sending and receiving of the first information respectively use the first message and the second message. Through the transmission of the first information, the first device can obtain a target parameter or a combination of target parameters, and the target parameter includes at least one of the following: the number of perception tasks; the number of perception targets; the resources for the transmission of perception-related information; the resource occupancy rate of the transmission of perception-related information; the throughput of the transmission of perception-related information; the percentage of the throughput of the transmission of perception-related information; the number of perception-related geographic location reports; the number of connected devices participating in the perception or the percentage of the number of devices.
[0126] The above-mentioned first parameter includes the number of perception tasks; the number of perception targets; the resources for the transmission of perception-related information; the resource occupancy rate of the transmission of perception-related information; the throughput of the transmission of perception-related information; the proportion of the throughput of the transmission of perception-related information; the number of perception-related geographic location reports; at least one of the number of connected devices participating in perception or the proportion of the number of devices; the above-mentioned first parameter can be understood as a perception load-related parameter.
[0127] The above-mentioned second parameter includes a comprehensive definition result of multiple target parameters, such as a comprehensive calculation result of multiple target parameters. The second parameter can also be described as a comprehensive perception load parameter.
[0128] The above-mentioned first device and second device are used for data transmission and belong to communication devices. That is, by transmitting at least one of the perception load related parameters and the comprehensive perception load parameters between communication devices, the communication devices can know the perception load related parameters, which is beneficial to resource allocation decisions, thereby helping to improve the service performance of the communication system.
[0129] In this embodiment of the present application, the target parameter (perceived load-related parameter) may include at least one of the following:
[0130] (1) Number of sensing tasks. For example, the sensing mode, sensing node, and sensing execution determined by the network based on the sensing request are considered one task. Alternatively, from the perspective of the base station or UE, one sensing configuration received by the base station or UE is considered one task.
[0131] (2) Number of sensing targets: the number of sensing targets that need to be identified or tracked, for example, breathing monitoring of N people.
[0132] (3) Resources for transmitting perceptual related information.
[0133] (4) Resource occupancy rate of the transmission of perception-related information.
[0134] Optionally, the perception-related information may include at least one of the following: a perception signal, a perception configuration, and perception data.
[0135] Optionally, the transmission of the perception-related information includes at least one of the following:
[0136] uplink transmission of the perception-related information;
[0137] downlink transmission of the perception-related information;
[0138] the transmission of the perception-related information between the first device and the third device, wherein the first device and the third device are devices of the same type;
[0139] The sensing-related information is transmitted and received autonomously.
[0140] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned perception-related information transmission can be an uplink transmission, a downlink transmission, a transmission between the first device and the third device, or a self-transmitting and self-receiving transmission of at least one of the perception signal, the perception configuration, and the perception data.
[0141] Among them, the transmission between the first device and the third device can be understood as the transmission between devices of the same type. For example, when the first device is a UE, it is the sidelink (SL) transmission of the perception-related information. When the first device is a base station, it can be the perception-related information transmission between base stations.
[0142] Among them, the above-mentioned spontaneous transmission can be the spontaneous transmission of the above-mentioned first device. For example, when the above-mentioned first device is a base station, the base station spontaneous perception can be that the base station A sends a perception signal and performs perception measurement by receiving the echo of the perception signal; when the above-mentioned first device is a terminal, the terminal spontaneous perception can be that the terminal A sends a perception signal and performs perception measurement by receiving the echo of the perception signal.
[0143] In an embodiment of the present application, the resources for the transmission of perception-related information can be understood as the transmission resources corresponding to the different transmission methods of the above-mentioned different information, and the resource occupancy rate of the transmission of perception-related information can be understood as the proportion of the transmission resources corresponding to the different transmission methods of the above-mentioned different information in the total transmission resources.
[0144] (5) The throughput of the transmission of perception-related information.
[0145] (6) The throughput ratio of perception-related information transmission.
[0146] In an embodiment of the present application, the throughput of the perception-related information transmission is the amount of data of any one item in the perception-related information transmission or the total amount of data of any combination, for example, represented in bits per second (bps). Specifically, it may be the amount of data of any one item among the perception measurement data, perception results, and perception assistance data in the transmitted perception data or the total amount of data of any combination. The throughput ratio of the perception-related information transmission is the ratio of the perception-related information transmission throughput to the total throughput.
[0147] The perception data is usually characterized by the amount of perception data sent by the base station / UE, and / or the amount of perception data received by the base station / UE. In the case where the UE receives a perception signal, the UE usually needs to send perception data to the network, and the corresponding parameter is the perception data throughput sent by the UE. Similarly, when the base station receives a perception signal, the base station usually needs to send perception data to the perception function, and the corresponding parameter is the perception data throughput sent by the base station. Since the UE needs to use wireless air interface frequency resources to send perception data, this parameter usually needs to be considered. The base station usually uses a backhaul wired network to send perception data, and operators with limited backhaul resources will consider this parameter. When the UE / base station is responsible for calculating the perception results, and the perception measurement data is generated by other devices, the UE / base station needs to receive the perception data throughput.
[0148] (7) Number of times the perception-related geographic location is reported.
[0149] Since perception usually needs to process perception data in combination with the location of the base station or UE that sends / receives the perception signal, the perception load / overhead evaluation can be performed on a movable base station or UE by the number of times the geographic location is reported. However, for the UE, frequent reporting of the geographic location increases the risk of being tracked, so this parameter is also required from the perspective of security and other considerations. In one example, generating geographic location information once is considered one positioning, and the number of perception-related geographic location reports is related to the number of positioning times. A related method is that the number of geographic location reports is equal to the number of positioning times, that is, one geographic location information is reported each time, or the data required to generate one geographic location information; or a related method is that the number of geographic location reports is less than the number of positioning times, for example, more than one geographic location information is reported each time. The number of positioning times includes at least one of the following definitions:
[0150] The number of positioning times of geographical location information related to non-3GPP protocols on the UE side, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS);
[0151] The number of positioning times based on the 3GPP protocol can be further divided into uplink positioning times (such as the number of uplink signal transmissions) and downlink positioning times (such as the number of UE measurements of downlink signals and the number of measurement results reported). For example, in the 4G / 5G positioning protocol, the UE sends an uplink positioning reference signal (such as the channel sounding reference signal SRS used for positioning), and the positioning management function (LMF) measures the uplink relative arrival time (UL-RTOA) of the UE's uplink positioning reference signal at different transmission and receiving points (TRP). The measurement results can obtain the UE's location information. For another example, in the 4G / 5G positioning protocol, the UE receives downlink positioning reference signals (such as the downlink positioning reference signal DL PRS) of multiple TRPs, and obtains the relative arrival time of multiple TRP downlink positioning reference signals by measuring the UE. Then, the UE or LMF solves the UE's geographic coordinates according to an appropriate position solution algorithm;
[0152] The sum of the number of times the UE's non-3GPP geographic location information and 3GPP-based location information are obtained.
[0153] (8) The number of connected devices participating in the perception or the proportion of the number of devices.
[0154] The participation in perception includes at least one of the UE sending a perception signal, receiving a perception signal, and the UE providing perception auxiliary information. A number of connected devices participating in perception or a proportion of the number of devices can be based on the maximum number of RRC connected users in the cell (for example, 1200) as the denominator, or the average number of RRC connected users per unit time as the denominator, or the first device data in the connected state that supports the perception capability (for example, the number of activated users in the cell is 1000, of which the number of users supporting the perception capability is 500, and the number of connected devices participating in perception is 20, then the proportion is 20 / 500). This parameter is applicable to the first device that can obtain the number of connected devices or the number of devices participating in perception, for example, a base station; that is, this parameter is applicable to the case where the base station is the first device.
[0155] The above-mentioned first parameter definition may include at least one of the above-mentioned target parameters, wherein the above-mentioned second parameter may be defined based on the above-mentioned two or more target parameters. Among them, the definition based on the above-mentioned two or more target parameters can be understood as being calculated based on the above-mentioned two or more target parameters. For example, for a base station, the second parameter may be defined based on three parameters: the number of connected users participating in perception, the perceived frequency resources (such as uplink perceived physical resource block PRB occupancy), and the perceived data throughput (such as uplink perceived data throughput). For another example, for a base station, the second parameter may be defined based on three parameters: the number of connected users participating in perception, the perceived frequency resources (such as downlink perceived PRB occupancy), and the perceived data throughput (such as downlink perceived data throughput). For another example, for a UE, the second parameter may be defined based on two parameters: perceived power resources (uplink perceived data transmission power) and the number of geographic location reports. For another example, for the UE, the second parameter can be defined based on the sensing power resource ratio (SensingP), the sensing time resource ratio (SensingT), and the sensing frequency resource ratio (SensingF). An example calculation formula is SensingL = 1 / 3 (SensingP + SensingT + SensingF). There are other optional sensing parameter combinations for the second parameter, which are not listed here one by one.
[0156] In the embodiment of the present application, regarding the sensing signal, according to the difference between the sensing signal sending node and the receiving node, there are 6 basic sensing modes, as shown in FIG3 , including:
[0157] 1) Base station self-transmitting and self-receiving sensing: In this sensing mode, base station A sends a sensing signal and performs sensing measurement by receiving the echo of the sensing signal;
[0158] 2) Inter-base station air interface sensing: Base station B receives the sensing signal sent by base station A and performs sensing measurements;
[0159] 3) Uplink air interface perception: Base station A receives the perception signal sent by terminal A and performs perception measurement;
[0160] 4) Downlink air interface perception: Terminal B receives the perception signal sent by base station B and performs perception measurement;
[0161] 5) Terminal self-transmitting and self-receiving sensing: Terminal A sends a sensing signal and performs sensing measurement by receiving the echo of the sensing signal;
[0162] 6) Sidelink perception between terminals: Terminal B receives the perception signal sent by terminal A and performs perception measurement.
[0163] It's worth noting that each sensing method in Figure 3 uses one sensing signal transmitting node and one sensing signal receiving node as examples. In actual systems, one or more sensing methods can be selected based on different sensing use cases and requirements, and each sensing method can have one or more transmitting nodes and one or more receiving nodes. The sensing targets in Figure 3 use people and vehicles as examples, assuming neither person nor vehicle carries or has installed signal transceiver / receiver equipment. However, the sensing targets in actual scenarios will be much richer.
[0164] In the embodiments of the present application, the perception data includes at least one of a perception measurement report and perception assistance data. The perception measurement report may include perception measurement data and perception results. The perception measurement report mainly includes measurement results obtained after measuring perception measurement quantities, while the perception assistance data includes the location of the UE that sends or receives the perception signal, the location of the base station that sends or receives the perception signal, an environment map, target area information, etc.
[0165] An optional classification method is to classify the perception measurement quantities into the following four categories (this description focuses on the measurement quantities, and can also be divided into three categories or unclassified, etc., and the four categories are only for illustration). Based on the relationship between the perception measurement quantities and the perception services, the third and fourth level measurement quantities below are generally also referred to as perception results. The measurement results of the second and / or first level measurement quantities are also referred to as perception measurement data.
[0166] a) First-level measurement quantities (received signal / original channel information), including: received signal / channel response complex results, amplitude / phase, I / Q path and their operation results (operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, matrix addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, matrix transposition, trigonometric operations, square root operations, and power operations, as well as threshold detection results and maximum / minimum value extraction results of the above operation results; operations also include Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) / Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT), Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) / Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT), 2D-FFT, 3D-FFT, matched filtering, autocorrelation operation, wavelet transform, and digital filtering, as well as threshold detection results and maximum / minimum value extraction results of the above operation results);
[0167] b) Second-level measurement quantities (basic measurement quantities), including: time delay, Doppler, angle, signal strength, and their multi-dimensional combination representation;
[0168] c) Level 3 measurements (basic attributes / states), including: distance, velocity, angle / direction, radar cross section (RCS), and acceleration;
[0169] d) Level 4 measurements (advanced attributes / states) include: spatial position, target presence, trajectory, movement, expression, vital signs, quantity, imaging results, weather, air quality, shape, material, and composition.
[0170] Optionally, the perception configuration includes at least one of the following:
[0171] Configuration of perception measurement objects, perception signals, perception measurement quantities, perception measurement reports, and perception data transmission;
[0172] Alternatively, the perception data includes at least one of the following:
[0173] Perception measurement data, perception results and perception auxiliary data.
[0174] In the embodiment of the present application, the perception configuration (or perception configuration information) includes at least one of perception measurement object configuration information, perception signal configuration information, perception measurement quantity configuration, perception (measurement) report configuration, and perception data transmission configuration.
[0175] Wireless sensing is the process of measuring received signals and then processing the measurement results to obtain the desired sensing results. Therefore, the configuration of the sensing signal can also be called the configuration of the sensing measurement object, which includes at least one of the following:
[0176] Waveforms, such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA), Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS), Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW), and pulse signals;
[0177] Subcarrier spacing: For example, the subcarrier spacing of an OFDM system is 30 kHz.
[0178] Guard interval: The time interval between the end of a signal transmission and the reception of the latest echo signal of that signal. This parameter is proportional to the maximum sensing distance. For example, it can be calculated as 2dmax / c, where dmax is the maximum sensing distance (a sensing requirement). For example, for a self-transmitting and self-receiving sensing signal, dmax represents the maximum distance between the sensing signal receiving point and the signal transmitting point. In some cases, the cyclic prefix (CP) of the OFDM signal can serve as the minimum guard interval. c is the speed of light.
[0179] Bandwidth: This parameter is inversely proportional to the range resolution and can be obtained by c / 2 / delta_d, where delta_d is the range resolution (a perception requirement);
[0180] Burst duration: This parameter is inversely proportional to the rate resolution (a sensing requirement). It is the time span over which the signal is sensed, primarily for calculating Doppler shift. This parameter can be calculated as c / 2 / delta_v / fc, where delta_v is the rate resolution and fc is the carrier frequency or center frequency of the signal.
[0181] Time interval: This parameter can be calculated as c / 2 / fc / v_range; where v_range is the maximum rate minus the minimum rate (pertaining to the sensing requirement); this parameter is the time interval between two adjacent sensing signals;
[0182] The transmit power of the sensing signal is measured, for example, with a value of 2dBm intervals from -20dBm to 23dBm.
[0183] The port information of the sensing signal, including the number and port number;
[0184] Signal formats, such as the Channel-State-Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS), Positioning Reference Signal (PRS), or other predefined signals, as well as related sequence format information;
[0185] Signal direction; for example, the direction of the perceived signal (e.g., base station transmits and UE receives, base station receives and UE transmits, base station transmits and receives independently, base station transmits and receives between base stations, UE transmits and receives independently, or UE transmits and receives between UEs)
[0186] · Sense the beam information of the signal;
[0187] Time resources, such as the time slot index or symbol index of the time slot where the perception signal is located. There are two types of time resources: one-time time resources, for example, one symbol sends an omnidirectional first signal; and one-time time resources, for example, multiple groups of periodic time resources or discontinuous time resources (which may include a start time and an end time). Each group of periodic time resources sends a perception signal in the same direction, and different groups of periodic time resources have different beam directions.
[0188] Frequency resources, including the center frequency, bandwidth, resource block (RB) or subcarrier of the perception signal. When the first information transmitted by the first node (the sending node of the perception configuration information) is information corresponding to the second node (the receiving node of the perception configuration information, such as a base station), when the second node is a base station, the center frequency is the center frequency of the second node. If the second node supports multiple cells, the center frequency list includes the center frequencies corresponding to the multiple cells. For a sidelink communication mode similar to NR, the perception measurement object is a group of transmission resource pools used for NR sidelink communication on a single carrier frequency.
[0189] Quasi Co-Location (QCL) relationship, for example, the sensing signal includes multiple resources, each resource is associated with a synchronization signal block (Synchronization Signal / PBCH Block, SSB) QCL, and the QCL includes Type A, B, C, or D. The sensing measurement parameters are configured to instruct the sensing measurement node to measure at least one of the following sensing measurement parameters (the following example illustrates a three-category approach for sensing measurement parameters):
[0190] a) First-level measurement quantities (received signal or original channel information), including: received signal / channel response complex results, amplitude / phase, I / Q path and operation results thereof (operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, matrix addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, matrix transposition, trigonometric operations, square root operations, and power operations, as well as threshold detection results and maximum / minimum value extraction results of the above operation results; operations also include Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) / Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT), Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) / Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT), 2D-FFT, 3D-FFT, matched filtering, autocorrelation operation, wavelet transform, and digital filtering, as well as threshold detection results and maximum / minimum value extraction results of the above operation results);
[0191] b) Second-level measurement quantities (basic measurement quantities), including: time delay, Doppler, angle, signal strength, and their multi-dimensional combination representations; c) Third-level measurement quantities (also known as perception results), including: target presence, distance, speed, angle / direction, RCS, acceleration, position, trajectory, movement, expression, breathing rate, heart rate, imaging results, weather, air quality, material and composition, etc.
[0192] The perception measurement report configuration includes at least one of the following:
[0193] The access type used for report transmission can be 3GPP access or non-3GPP access. 3GPP access can be indicated as 4G (LTE), 5G (NR), 6G, etc., and non-3GPP access can be indicated as wireless local area network (WLAN), Bluetooth, and wired network. If there are multiple access types, the priority order can also be reflected in a list. For example, if the access type used for report transmission is indicated as 5G or 4G, it means that 5G will be used to transmit the report first.
[0194] Reporting criteria: The criteria that triggers the sensing measurement node to send measurement reports, which can be periodic, event-triggered, or indicated. Events include but are not limited to the following:
[0195] The perceived signal quality detected by the receiving end meets the threshold requirements, such as at least one of the following: the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the reference signal receiving power (RSRP), the received signal strength indication (RSSI), and the signal-to-clutter ratio threshold. If the threshold is met, the perceived measurement quantity in the perception measurement item configuration is measured and reported.
[0196] The perception measurement results obtained by the receiving end do not meet the perception requirements, that is, the perception performance indicator corresponding to the calculated perception measurement results meets or exceeds a preset threshold, such as the perception SNR (an optional definition is the ratio of the effective signal power of the signal propagation path corresponding to the perception target to the noise power, or the ratio of the effective signal power of the signal propagation path corresponding to the perception target to the sum of the noise power and the signal power of the signal propagation paths corresponding to non-perception targets);
[0197] The receiving end correctly demodulates the data (e.g., passes the cyclic redundancy check (CRC)) and performs perception based on the communication data, using a method of first demodulating and then estimating the perception parameters. If the communication demodulation is incorrect, the perception measurement results will be affected and become unreliable.
[0198] The mandatory sensing measurements meet the requirements. For example, the latency, Doppler, and GPS location information for sensing signals are mandatory, while RSRP and Reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ) are optional. Therefore, they are reported only when multiple mandatory sensing measurement items are available.
[0199] Report format: The report includes the maximum number of cells under the Radio Access Technology (RAT) supported by the second node, the maximum number of measurement quantities for each cell, etc.
[0200] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned perception data transmission configuration can be understood as a transmission-related configuration of a type of data.
[0201] Optionally, the resource for transmitting the perception-related information includes at least one of the following:
[0202] The time domain resources for transmitting the perception-related information, the frequency domain resources for transmitting the perception-related information, the spatial resources for transmitting the perception-related information, the power resources for transmitting the perception-related information, and the control resources for the perception configuration.
[0203] In an embodiment of the present application, the resources for the transmission of perception-related information or the resource occupancy rate of the transmission of perception-related information can be understood as the resources of at least one combination of the time domain resources for the transmission of perception-related information, the frequency domain resources for the transmission of perception-related information, the spatial resources for the transmission of perception-related information, the power resources for the transmission of perception-related information, and the control resources of the perception configuration, or the resource occupancy rate.
[0204] Optionally, the resources for transmitting the perception-related information are calculated based on the resources used by the perception-related information and a weight coefficient, where the weight coefficient is a weight coefficient corresponding to the resources used by the perception-related information, and the weight coefficient is determined based on the degree of multiplexing of the perception-related information and the communication-related information.
[0205] Example 1, taking the perception time resource as an example, the perception time resource includes the time resource occupied by the perception signal transmission. The perception signal includes at least one of the six perception modes described in the aforementioned embodiment, and can also be the sum of the resources occupied by the perception signals sent by different perception modes. For example, from the UE perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, UE sidelink perception signal transmission, and UE self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. From the base station perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, base station-to-base station perception signal transmission, and base station self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. In order to simplify the description, the detailed content below does not distinguish between the aforementioned uplink, downlink, sidelink, and self-transmission and self-reception, and is applicable to any perception link / mode or combination of perception links / modes. Accordingly, the corresponding parameters may include uplink perception time resources, downlink perception time resources, sidelink perception time resources, inter-base station perception time resources, base station spontaneous perception time resources, UE spontaneous perception time resources, or the sum of perception time resources including different link combinations.
[0206] If sending a perception signal occupies N symbols, then the perception time resource is N symbols. Perception time resources can also be measured by units such as time slots, subframes, frames, or milliseconds (ms). Symbols (hereinafter described as perception symbols) are used as examples only. Furthermore, a weight coefficient corresponding to each perception symbol can be defined, and the value of the weight coefficient is usually between 0 and 1. Then one method for calculating the perception time resource is as follows: within the time length of N symbols, if the symbol is used to send a perception signal, then Tn is 1, otherwise it is 0. That is, Tn is a parameter used to indicate whether the symbol is used to send a perception signal. Wn is the weight coefficient corresponding to the symbol.
[0207] Among them, for the symbols used for perceptual signal transmission, the weight coefficients can be divided into the following cases according to whether the perceptual signal is dedicated to perceptual use (the specific values are only examples and are not intended to limit the weight settings in the embodiments of the present application):
[0208] When the sensing signal is a multiplexed communication reference signal (such as CSI-RS, SRS, DMRS, etc.), these signals do not use different resource configurations depending on whether there is a sensing service, so the weight coefficient can be defined as 0%;
[0209] When the perception signal is a multiplexed communication reference signal (such as CSI-RS, SRS, DMRS, etc.), but the configuration of the reference signal is based on the perception requirements and communication requirements, the weight coefficient can be defined as 50%;
[0210] When the sensing signal is a dedicated sensing reference signal and is not used for communication, the weight coefficient may be defined as 100%.
[0211] The perception time resource includes the time resources occupied by the perception configuration transmission. This perception configuration transmission also applies to any link, or a combination of different links, whether uplink, downlink, or sidelink. Because perception configuration transmission typically occurs between different transmitting and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception time resources, downlink perception time resources, sidelink perception time resources, or the sum of perception time resources encompassing different link combinations. This parameter definition also applies when wireless backhaul is used between base stations, or between a base station and a SF. This parameter definition does not apply when wired backhaul is used between base stations, or between a base station and a SF. If transmitting the perception configuration occupies N symbols, then the perception time resource is N symbols. This can also be measured in units such as time slots, subframes, frames, or milliseconds; symbols are used here as examples. Furthermore, a weight coefficient can be defined for each perception symbol, typically ranging between 0 and 1. One method for calculating the perception time resource is as follows: within the time length of N symbols, if the symbol is used to transmit the perception configuration, then Tn is 1; otherwise, it is 0. In other words, Tn is a parameter that indicates whether the symbol is used to transmit the perception signal. Xn is the weight coefficient corresponding to the symbol.
[0212] For symbols sent for sensing configuration, the weight coefficients may be classified into the following cases according to whether the sensing configuration is sensing-specific, where the specific values are only examples:
[0213] When the sensing configuration is a multiplexed communication configuration, for example, the aforementioned sensing multiplexed communication reference signals (such as CSI-RS, SRS, DMRS, etc.) are configured, and these signals do not bring additional configuration due to the presence of sensing services, then the weight coefficient can be defined as 0%;
[0214] When the perception configuration and communication configuration are partially reused, for example, although the aforementioned perception multiplexes the communication reference signal (such as CSI-RS, SRS, DMRS, etc.), the reference signal configuration is configured based on the perception requirements and communication requirements, then the weight coefficient can be defined as 50%;
[0215] When the sensing signal is a dedicated sensing reference signal and is not used for communication, the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%.
[0216] When the sensing configuration is used for sensing measurement data transmission configuration and is not used for communication, the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%;
[0217] When the sensing configuration is used for the sensing result transmission configuration and is not used for communication, the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%;
[0218] When the perception configuration is used for perception auxiliary information transmission configuration and is not used for communication, the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%; when the perception configuration is used for perception auxiliary information transmission configuration, or when the perception configuration is used for perception measurement data or perception result transmission configuration, the related auxiliary information, perception measurement data, and perception results may also be used for communication, then the weight coefficient can be defined as 80%.
[0219] The perception time resource includes the time resource occupied by perception data transmission. The perception data transmission also applies to any link, or a combination of different links, whether uplink, downlink, or sidelink. Because perception data transmission is typically between different transmitting and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception time resources, downlink perception time resources, sidelink perception time resources, or the sum of perception time resources encompassing different link combinations. This parameter definition also applies when wireless backhaul is used between base stations, and between a base station and a SF. This parameter definition does not apply when wired backhaul is used between base stations, and between a base station and a SF. For example, if the transmission of perception data occupies N symbols, then the perception time resource is N symbols. It can also be measured in units such as time slots, subframes, frames, or milliseconds, with symbols being used here as examples only. Typically, the perception data is primarily used to provide perception services to applications outside the network, so the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%, resulting in a perception time resource of N symbols. If the perception results are potentially used to improve communication performance, the weight coefficient (e.g., 80%) can be multiplied by the total number of symbols occupied by the perception data transmission.
[0220] The sensing time resources include the sum of time resources occupied by more than one of sensing signal transmission (e.g., sending), sensing configuration transmission (e.g., sending), and sensing data transmission;
[0221] Correspondingly, the time domain resource occupancy rate of the perception-related information transmission is the time resources used by the perception-related information divided by the total time resources.
[0222] Example 2, taking the perception frequency resources as an example, the perception frequency resources include the frequency resources occupied by the perception signal transmission. The perception signal includes at least one of the six perception methods described in the aforementioned embodiment, and can also be the sum of the resources occupied by the perception signals sent by different perception methods. For example, from the UE perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, UE sidelink perception signal transmission, and UE self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. From the base station perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, base station-to-base station perception signal transmission, and base station self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. In order to simplify the description, the detailed content below does not distinguish between the aforementioned uplink, downlink, sidelink, and self-transmission and self-reception, and is applicable to any perception link / mode or combination of perception links / modes.
[0223] If sending a perception signal occupies X subcarriers, then the perception frequency resource is X subcarriers. If the system has a total of Y subcarriers, then the occupancy rate is X / Y. It can also be measured by units such as RB, bandwidth part (BWP) or Hertz (Hz), where subcarriers are only used as examples. Furthermore, a weight coefficient corresponding to each perception subcarrier can be defined, and the value of the weight coefficient is usually between 0 and 1. Then a method for calculating the perception frequency resource is as follows: assuming that each symbol has a total of N subcarriers, if the subcarrier is used to send a perception signal, then Fn is 1, otherwise it is 0, that is, Fn is a parameter used to indicate whether the subcarrier is used to send a perception signal. Wn is the weight coefficient corresponding to the symbol.
[0224] Another calculation method is as follows: within the time length of M symbols, assuming that each symbol has N subcarriers. If the subcarrier is used for sensing signal transmission, then Fmn is 1; otherwise, it is 0. In other words, Fmn is a parameter that indicates whether the subcarrier is used for sensing signal transmission. Wmn is the weight coefficient corresponding to the symbol.
[0225] Among them, for the subcarrier used for sending the perception signal, the weight coefficient can be defined according to whether the perception signal is dedicated to perception (similar to the definition of whether the time domain resource is dedicated to perception in the aforementioned embodiment), and an example of Wn or Wmn is as described in the aforementioned embodiment.
[0226] The perception frequency resources include the frequency resources occupied by the perception configuration transmission. The perception configuration transmission is also applicable to any link of uplink, downlink or sidelink or a combination of different links. Because the perception configuration transmission is usually between different sending and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception frequency resources, downlink perception frequency resources, sidelink perception frequency resources, or the sum of perception frequency resources including different link combinations. When wireless backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition also applies. When wired backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition does not apply. The calculation example of the perception frequency resources here is similar to the perception frequency resources corresponding to the aforementioned perception signal. What is calculated here is the number of subcarriers for sending the perception configuration. An example of the weight coefficient Xn is as described above.
[0227] The perception frequency resources include the frequency resources occupied by perception data transmission. The perception data transmission is also applicable to any link of uplink, downlink or sidelink, or a combination of different links. Because perception data transmission is usually between different sending and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception frequency resources, downlink perception frequency resources, sidelink perception frequency resources, or the sum of perception frequency resources including different link combinations. When wireless backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition also applies. When wired backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition does not apply. For example, if the transmission of perception data occupies N subcarriers, then the perception frequency resources are N subcarriers. It can also be measured in units such as RB, BWP or Hz, and the symbols here are only used as examples. Usually, the perception data is mainly used to provide perception services for application functions outside the network, so the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%, so the perception frequency resources are N subcarriers. If it is considered that the perception results may be used to assist in improving communication performance, the weight coefficient (for example, 80%) can be multiplied by the total number of subcarriers occupied by perception data transmission.
[0228] The sensing frequency resources include the sum of frequency resources occupied by more than one of sensing signal transmission (eg, sending), sensing configuration transmission (eg, sending), and sensing data transmission.
[0229] Correspondingly, the frequency domain resource occupancy rate of the perception-related information transmission is the frequency domain resources used by the perception-related information divided by the total frequency resources.
[0230] Example 3, taking the perception space resources as an example, the perception space resources include the space resources occupied by the perception signal transmission, such as beams, number of antennas, and / or number of ports. The perception signal includes at least one of the six perception modes described in the aforementioned embodiment, and can also be the sum of the resources occupied by the perception signals sent by different perception modes. For example, from the UE perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, UE sidelink perception signal transmission, and UE self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. From the base station perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, base station-to-base station perception signal transmission, and base station self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. In order to simplify the description, the detailed content below does not distinguish between the aforementioned uplink, downlink, sidelink, and self-transmission and self-reception, and is applicable to any perception link / mode or combination of perception links / modes. Correspondingly, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception space resources, downlink perception space resources, sidelink perception space resources, inter-base station perception space resources, base station spontaneous perception space resources, UE spontaneous perception space resources, or the sum of perception space resources including different link combinations.
[0231] If N ports are used to transmit the sensing signal, then the sensing time resource is N ports. This can also be measured by the number of antennas or beams, though the number of ports is used here as an example. Furthermore, a weight coefficient can be defined for each sensing symbol, typically ranging between 0 and 1. One method for calculating the sensing spatial resource is as follows: within the time length of N symbols, if a symbol is used to transmit the sensing signal, Sn is the number of ports used for the symbol's sensing signal transmission; if the symbol is not used for the symbol's sensing signal transmission, Sn is 0. Wn is the weight coefficient corresponding to the symbol.
[0232] Among them, if the number of ports of the symbol used for sending the perception signal is Sn, the weight coefficient can be defined according to whether the perception signal is perception-specific, and an example of Wn is as described in the above embodiment.
[0233] The perception space resources include the space resources occupied by the perception configuration transmission. The perception configuration transmission is also applicable to any link of uplink, downlink or sidelink or a combination of different links. Because the perception configuration transmission is usually between different sending and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception space resources, downlink perception space resources, sidelink perception space resources, or the sum of perception space resources including different link combinations. When wireless backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition also applies. When wired backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition does not apply. The calculation example of the perception space resources here is similar to the perception space resources corresponding to the aforementioned perception signal. What is calculated here is the number of ports for sending the perception configuration. An example of the weight coefficient Xn is as described above.
[0234] The perception space resources include the space resources occupied by perception data transmission. The perception data transmission also applies to any link, or a combination of different links, whether uplink, downlink, or sidelink. Because perception data transmission is typically between different transmitting and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception space resources, downlink perception space resources, sidelink perception space resources, or the sum of perception space resources comprising different link combinations. This parameter definition also applies when wireless backhaul is used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs. This parameter definition does not apply when wired backhaul is used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs. For example, if the transmission of perception data occupies N symbols (N is not less than 1), then the perception space resource is the average value of the number of ports Sn used to transmit perception data on symbol n, as shown in the formula below. It can also be measured by the number of antennas, with the number of ports here being an example only. Typically, the perception data is primarily used to provide perception services for application functions outside the network, and therefore, as shown in the formula below, the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%. If the perception results are considered to potentially be used to assist in improving communication performance, the weight coefficient (e.g., 80%) can be multiplied by the total number of ports occupied by perception data transmission.
[0235] The sensing spatial resources include the sum of the spatial resources occupied by more than one of the following: sensing signal transmission (e.g., sending), sensing configuration transmission (e.g., sending), and sensing data transmission.
[0236] Correspondingly, the spatial resource occupancy rate of the perception-related information transmission is the spatial resources used by the perception-related information divided by the total spatial resources.
[0237] Example 4, taking the perception power resource as an example, the perception power resource includes the power resource occupied by the perception signal transmission, for example, measured in watts, milliwatts, dBm, dBmW, etc. The perception signal includes at least one of the six perception modes described in the aforementioned embodiment, and can also be the sum of the resources occupied by the perception signals sent by different perception modes. For example, from the UE perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception signal transmission, UE sidelink perception signal transmission, and UE self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. From the base station perspective, it can be the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, or it can be the sum of the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception signal transmission, base station-to-base station perception signal transmission, and base station self-transmission and self-reception perception signal transmission. In order to simplify the description, the detailed content below does not distinguish between the aforementioned uplink, downlink, sidelink, and self-transmission and self-reception, and is applicable to any perception link / mode or combination of perception links / modes. Correspondingly, the corresponding parameters include uplink sensing power resources, downlink sensing power resources, sidelink sensing power resources, inter-base station sensing power resources, base station self-transmitted and self-received sensing power resources, UE self-transmitted and self-received sensing power resources, or the sum of sensing power resources including different link combinations.
[0238] If the transmit power for sending a perception signal is X mW, then the perception power resource is X mW. Furthermore, a weight coefficient corresponding to each unit of time (e.g., a time slot) can be defined, with the value of this weight coefficient typically ranging from 0 to 1. One method for calculating the perception power resource is as follows: within a time slot length of N, if the time slot is used for perception signal transmission, then Pn is the power used for perception signal transmission in that time slot; if the time slot is not used for perception signal transmission, Pn is 0. Wn is the weight coefficient corresponding to that time slot.
[0239] Among them, if the power used for sending the perception signal in the time slot is Pn, the weight coefficient can be defined according to whether the perception signal is dedicated to perception, and an example of Wn is as described in the above embodiment.
[0240] The perceived power resources include the power resources occupied by the perception configuration transmission. The perceived configuration transmission is also applicable to any link of uplink, downlink or sidelink or a combination of different links. Because the perception configuration transmission is usually between different sending and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception power resources, downlink perception power resources, sidelink perception power resources, or the sum of perception power resources including different link combinations. When wireless backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition also applies. When wired backhaul is also used between base stations, and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition does not apply. The calculation example of the perceived power resources here is similar to the perceived power resources corresponding to the aforementioned perception signal. What is calculated here is the power of sending the perception configuration. An example of the weight coefficient Xn is as described above.
[0241] The perception power resources include the power resources occupied by perception data transmission. The perception data transmission is also applicable to any link of uplink, downlink or sidelink or a combination of different links. Because perception data transmission is usually between different sending and receiving nodes, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception power resources, downlink perception power resources, sidelink perception power resources, or the sum of perception power resources including different link combinations. When wireless backhaul is also used between base stations and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition also applies. When wired backhaul is also used between base stations and between base stations and SFs, this parameter definition does not apply. For example, if the transmission of perception data occupies Y time slots (Y is not less than 1), then the perception power resource is the average value of the power Py used to transmit perception data in time slot y, see the formula below. Usually, the perception data is mainly used to provide perception services to application functions outside the network, so as shown in the following formula, the weight coefficient can be defined as 100%. If it is considered that the perception results may be used to assist in improving communication performance, the total power occupied by perception data transmission can be multiplied by the weight coefficient (for example, 80%).
[0242] The sensing power resource includes the sum of the power resources occupied by more than one of the sensing signal transmission (e.g., sending), the sensing configuration transmission (e.g., sending), and the sensing data transmission.
[0243] Correspondingly, the power resource occupancy rate of the perception-related information transmission is the power resource used by the perception-related information divided by the total power resource.
[0244] Example 5, taking the perception control resource as an example. When the number of connected users is large, the resource bottleneck of the communication system may be the control resource, so the perception control resource or the control resource occupancy parameter is defined. Specifically, the perception control resource includes the resources occupied by the perception configuration information, for example, represented by the number of downlink control channel control information units. The perception configuration includes at least one of the six perception modes described in the aforementioned embodiment, and may also be the sum of the resources occupied by the perception configurations sent by different perception modes. For example, from the UE perspective, it may be the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception configuration, or it may be the sum of the resources occupied by the UE uplink perception configuration sending, the UE sidelink perception configuration sending, and the UE self-transmission and self-reception perception configuration sending. From the base station perspective, it may be the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception configuration sending, or it may be the sum of the resources occupied by the base station downlink perception configuration sending, the base station downlink perception configuration sending, the base station inter-base station perception configuration sending, and the base station self-transmission and self-reception perception configuration sending. In order to simplify the description, the detailed content below does not distinguish between the aforementioned uplink, downlink, sidelink, and self-transmission and self-reception, and is applicable to any perception link / mode or combination of perception links / modes. Correspondingly, the corresponding parameters include uplink perception control resources, downlink perception control resources, sidelink perception control resources, inter-base station perception control resources, base station self-transmitted and self-received perception control resources, UE self-transmitted and self-received perception control resources, or the sum of perception power resources including different link combinations.
[0245] Taking the number of Control Channel Elements (CCEs) as an example, if the number of CCEs used to transmit the sensing configuration is N, then the sensing control resource is N. Furthermore, a weight coefficient corresponding to each unit of time (e.g., a time slot) can be defined, and this weight coefficient typically ranges between 0 and 1. One method for calculating the sensing control resource is as follows: within a time length of Y time slots, if the time slot is used to transmit the sensing configuration, then Cy is the number of CCEs used to transmit the sensing configuration in that time slot; if the time slot is not used to transmit the sensing signal, Cy is 0. Wy is the weight coefficient corresponding to the time slot.
[0246] If the number of CCEs used for sensing configuration transmission in the time slot is Cy, the weight coefficient may be defined according to whether the sensing signal is dedicated to sensing, and an example of Wy is as described above.
[0247] Correspondingly, the control resource occupancy rate of the perception configuration is the control resources used by the perception configuration divided by the total control resources.
[0248] Optionally, when the first device is a network side device, the first information includes at least one of the following: first information of the terminal, first information of the terminal group, first information of the terminal and network side device group, first information of the cell, and first information of the cell group.
[0249] In an embodiment of the present application, the first device may be at least one of a UE, a base station, and a cell. When the first device is a UE, the perceived load-related parameters sent by the UE may be UE group-level parameters, for example, UE group 1 includes greater than or equal to one UE. When the first device is a base station, the perceived load sent by the base station may be base station group-level parameters or cell group-level parameters, for example, a cell group includes greater than or equal to one cell. When the first device is a base station, the perceived load sent by the base station may also be UE group-level parameters, for example, a UE group includes greater than or equal to one UE that uses the base station or cell as a service node or service cell. When the first device is a base station, the perceived load sent by the base station may also be one or more cell- and one or more UE-level parameters, for example, a perceived load parameter of a cell and one or more UEs that uses the cell as a service cell. When the first device is a network management function, the network management function may also send the perceived load-related parameters of the base station or base station group.
[0250] Optionally, the first information further includes at least one of the following:
[0251] a first threshold corresponding to the first parameter;
[0252] a first current state corresponding to the first parameter;
[0253] a first future state corresponding to the first parameter;
[0254] a second threshold corresponding to the second parameter;
[0255] a second current state corresponding to the second parameter;
[0256] A second future state corresponding to the second parameter.
[0257] During application, the first or second parameter may be set with a specific threshold value, and may be referenced to the current state or future state. The threshold value, current state, or future state may be transmitted via a first information form in a first message or a second message. The current state may be defined as a statistical calculation of information within a unit of time, where the unit of time in the current state is typically the moment closest to the present, or the time unit closest to the present. The future state may be defined as a predicted or estimated value calculated based on information within a certain future period.
[0258] The following types of processes can be used as an example:
[0259] Type 1: The first device sends at least one of the perception load related parameters (first parameters) or the comprehensive perception load parameters (second parameters) and the corresponding threshold value (usually the upper limit of the parameter, such as the maximum perception time resource, etc.) to the second device (such as the perception function). Among them, the first device can determine the threshold value based on its own needs (such as UE power, geographical location, etc.) and security factors (such as whether it meets the QoS requirements of the UE's ongoing communication service, etc.). The second device determines whether to select the first device (when the first information sent by the first device is the first information of the UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc., it determines whether to select the corresponding UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc.) as the perception node. The first device can send the first information when reporting the perception capability, or it can send the first information based on an event trigger. For ease of understanding, the relevant process can refer to the subsequent example 1
[0260] Type 2: The first device sends at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters and the corresponding current state value to the second device (such as the perception function). The current state value may be the perception resource that has been used or the remaining (i.e., still usable) perception resource, such as the perception time resource that has been used per unit time, or the perception time resource that remains per unit time. The second device determines whether to select the first device (when the first information sent by the first device is the first information of the UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc., it determines whether to select the corresponding UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc.) as the perception node based on the parameter and the current state value, as well as information such as the optional parameter value threshold. The first device may send the first information based on the request of the second device, or may send the information based on an event trigger or a periodic trigger. For ease of understanding, the relevant process may refer to the subsequent example 2
[0261] Type 3: The first device sends at least one of the perception load related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters and the corresponding future state value to the second device (such as the perception function). The future state value may be the perception resource that is expected to be available in the future, such as the perception time resource available per unit time. The second device determines whether to select the first device as the perception node based on the information such as the parameters and the future state value (when the first information sent by the first device is the first information of the UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc., it determines whether to select the corresponding UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc.). The first device may send the information based on the request of the second device, or may send the information based on an event trigger or a periodic trigger. For ease of understanding, the relevant process can refer to the subsequent example 3
[0262] Type 4: The second device (such as a perception function) sends a participation perception request message to the first device, and the perception request message includes at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters and a corresponding threshold value (usually the upper limit of the parameter, such as the maximum perception time resource, etc.). Regarding the threshold value, the second device determines the continuity requirements of the perception service and the security requirements of the perception service, such as avoiding the base station / UE from being unable to meet the communication service quality requirements due to excessive perception services, such as avoiding the base station / UE from being unable to meet the continuity requirements or the perception service quality requirements due to excessive communication services. Optionally, the first message may also include communication load-related parameters and corresponding threshold values. The first device determines whether to accept the perception request based on the parameters, whether the current perception resources reach or exceed the corresponding threshold value, and / or whether the current communication resources reach or exceed the corresponding threshold value. For ease of understanding, the relevant process can refer to the subsequent example 4.
[0263] Optionally, the first device sending the first message to the second device includes:
[0264] In a first case, the first device sends the first message to the second device;
[0265] The first situation includes at least one of the following:
[0266] The first device reports a sensing capability;
[0267] Satisfy the preset trigger event;
[0268] Satisfy the preset trigger period;
[0269] The first device receives a target request sent by the second device, where the target request is used to request the first message.
[0270] In an embodiment of the present application, the first device sending the first message can be executed under preset conditions or circumstances, specifically, it can be triggered based on a trigger event, based on a periodic trigger, or based on a request from the second device.

[0275] The terminal associated with the first device switches to a new serving cell;
[0276] The difference between the current first information and the previously sent first information is greater than or equal to a third threshold;
[0277] The current first information meets the fourth threshold.
[0278] In an embodiment of the present application, when the first device is a terminal, the sending of the first message may be triggered when the first device initially accesses a cell or the first device switches to a new service cell. When the first device is a network side device, the sending of the first message may be triggered when the terminal associated with the network side device initially accesses a cell or switches to a new service cell.
[0279] In the embodiment of the present application, the sending of the first message may be triggered when a change in the first information is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value (third threshold), or when the first information itself satisfies a preset threshold value (fourth threshold). For example, the sending of the first message may be triggered when resources for transmitting perception-related information included in the first information meet the fourth threshold. The satisfying of the fourth threshold may be greater than or equal to the fourth threshold, or less than or equal to the fourth threshold.
[0280] Optionally, the method further includes:
[0281] When the first device is participating in the sensing, receiving a fourth message sent by the second device;
[0282] The fourth message is used to indicate at least one of perception termination, perception switching, perception configuration and communication configuration.
[0283] In an embodiment of the present application, the first device sends a first message to the second device, the first message including first information, and the second device determines one or more target devices in the first device according to the first message, or uses the first device as the target device when the first device meets a preset condition (the second terminal determines that the first device needs to perform perception termination, perception switching, perception configuration adjustment, and communication configuration adjustment); the second device sends a fourth message to the target device; wherein the fourth message is used to indicate at least one of perception termination, perception switching, perception configuration, and communication configuration. That is, the first device sends the first message to the second device so that the second device can decide whether the first device continues to perform perception or whether to perform perception switching, whether to perform perception configuration or communication configuration adjustment. When the second terminal determines that the first device needs to perform perception termination, perception switching, perception configuration adjustment, and communication configuration adjustment (that is, the first device is selected as the target device by the second device), the fourth message is sent to the first device.
[0284] Optionally, the second device determines the target device in the first device according to the first message, including: the second device determines the target device in the first device according to the first message and a fourth current state corresponding to the first message.
[0285] In the embodiment of the present application, the second device determines the target device based not only on the first message sent by the first device, but also on the fourth current state corresponding to the first message obtained by the second device.
[0286] Optionally, the second device obtains the fourth current state through calculation;
[0287] The second device receives the fourth current state sent by the first device;
[0288] The second device receives the fourth current state sent by the fourth device.
[0289] In an embodiment of the present application, the second device obtains the fourth current state corresponding to the first message, which can be calculated by the second device itself (for example, the second device obtains the currently used perception resource state information based on historical information statistics), or it can be obtained by sending it through the first device, or it can be obtained by sending it through a fourth device other than the first and second devices (for example, the first device is a base station, the second device is a perception function, and the fourth device is a network management function node).
[0290] Exemplarily, when the second device receives the first information, it determines that the current load of the first device is too large (for example, at least one of the first parameters is greater than or equal to the first threshold, or at least one of the second parameters is greater than or equal to the second threshold) based on the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters. The first device can be defined as a perception high-load cell or a perception high-load UE. In this case, the termination of at least partial perception of the first device can be indicated, and no new perception task may be allocated. The second device may also switch the existing perception task to other base stations or UEs.
[0291] Exemplarily, referring to the description of the first parameter or the second parameter in the foregoing embodiment, to define the first device as a perceived high-load cell or a perceived high-load UE, at least one of the following conditions may be adopted:
[0292] The number of connected devices participating in sensing reaches a first sub-threshold, the uplink sensing physical resource block (PRB) occupancy reaches a second sub-threshold, and the uplink sensing data throughput reaches a third sub-threshold;
[0293] Or the number of connected users participating in the perception reaches the fourth sub-threshold and the downlink perception PRB occupancy reaches the fifth sub-threshold and the downlink perception data throughput reaches the sixth sub-threshold; a downlink perception PRB occupancy can be a downlink PDSCH perception PRB occupancy, and / or, a downlink PDCCH perception PRB occupancy.
[0294] Among them, the first sub-threshold, the second sub-threshold, the third sub-threshold, the fourth sub-threshold, the fifth sub-threshold, and the sixth sub-threshold belong to the first threshold.
[0295] Optionally, the second message is used for a perception request, and the method further includes:
[0296] The first device determines whether to accept the perception request based on the second message.
[0297] In an embodiment of the present application, a second message is sent to the first device to execute a perception request, and the first device can determine whether to accept the perception request based on the information carried by the second message (for example, the first information).
[0298] Optionally, the second message also includes second information, and the second information is a communication load related parameter.
[0299] In an embodiment of the present application, when the first device performs resource control according to the second message, in addition to referring to the perception compliance related parameters (for example, at least one of the first parameter and the second parameter), it can also refer to the communication load related parameters to improve the accuracy of the decision.
[0300] Optionally, the first device determining whether to accept the perception request according to the second message includes:
[0301] The first device determines whether to accept the perception request based on the second message and a third current state corresponding to the second message.
[0302] In an embodiment of the present application, the first device can determine whether to accept the above-mentioned perception request based on the second information sent by the second device and the current state obtained by the first device itself. For example, the above-mentioned second message includes the resources for the transmission of perception-related information, and the third current state corresponding to the second message obtained by the first device can be understood as the current usage of the resources for the transmission of perception-related information, that is, when the first device confirms that the perception request message carries the resource parameters for the transmission of perception-related information, it correspondingly obtains the current usage (current state) of the resources for the transmission of perception-related information, which is used to decide whether to accept the perception request.
[0303] Optionally, when the first device rejects the perception request, the method further includes:
[0304] The first device sends a third message to the second device;
[0305] The third message includes the reason for rejecting the perception request.
[0306] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first device can send perception request feedback to the second device when determining whether to receive the perception request. When the feedback result is rejection, it can specifically carry the reason for rejecting the perception request.
[0307] In the embodiment of the present application, aimed at the problem of resource competition in communication perception fusion, the operation performed by the first device according to the above-mentioned second message, and the operation performed by the second device according to the above-mentioned first message can be understood as resource control of synaesthesia fusion through perception load-related state parameters and / or communication load-related state parameters.
[0308] The perception and communication fusion solution provided in the embodiments of the present application can be applied to communication systems such as 5G, 6G and future communication systems.
[0309] For ease of understanding, the following examples are given for the present application:
[0310] Example 1
[0311] Step 1 (optional): The first device receives a perceived load threshold reporting triggering event. Optional perceived load threshold triggering events include UE initial access, UE handover to a new serving cell, and the like.
[0312] Step 2. The first device sends a first message to the second device (for example, a perception function; an access and mobility management function AMF, etc.; when the first device is a UE, the second device may also be a base station), wherein the first message includes at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters, and a corresponding threshold value (usually the upper limit value of the parameter. The perception load-related parameters include at least one of the aforementioned first parameters. The above threshold value may be, for example, the maximum number of perception symbols or the proportion of perception symbols, the maximum number of perception subcarriers or the proportion of perception subcarriers, the maximum number of perception antennas / port data or the proportion of the number of antennas / ports). Regarding the threshold value, the first device may determine it based on its own needs (for example, the UE may determine it based on power, geographical location, etc., and the base station may determine it based on historical communication load information, etc.) and security factors (for example, the UE may determine it based on whether the QoS requirements of the UE's ongoing communication service are met, and the base station may determine it based on historical perception load statistics, etc.).
[0313] The perceived load threshold value of the base station is usually configured by the network management function node, so the network management function node can also send a first message to the second device as the first device. The first information carried by the first message is the perceived load of the base station and its threshold value.
[0314] When the first device is a UE, the sensing load related parameter is a UE-level parameter, that is, it represents the sensing resources used by the UE. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE.
[0315] When the first device is a base station, the sensing load related parameter can be a cell-level parameter, that is, a parameter that characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing in the cell to the total resources allocated to the cell.
[0316] When the first device is a UE group, the sensing load-related parameter is a UE group-level parameter, i.e., characterizes the sensing resources used by the UE group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing by the UE group to the total resources allocated to the UE group;
[0317] When the first device is a base station group, the sensing load-related parameter is a cell group-level parameter, i.e., characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing by the cell group to the total resources allocated to the cell group;
[0318] When the first device is a base station, the data of the first message may be cell-level data, UE group-level data, data of the cell and one or more UEs accessing the cell. Specifically, an example way for the first device to send the first message is based on the perception load parameter represented by the protocol-defined information element (for example, the number of geographic location reports), then the threshold value of the perception load parameter shown is sent in the first message based on the protocol definition (for example, 5 times / minute). An example way for the first device to send the first message is to indicate which perception load parameter it is through an information element. For example, the aforementioned 10 perception load parameters can be indicated by a 4-bit information element to indicate which perception load parameter the first device is sending (for example, 0001 represents the number of perception tasks); at the same time, an information element is used to identify the threshold value of the corresponding perception load parameter.
[0319] Step 3: The second device receives the first message. When the second device needs to select a perception node based on the perception service requirements, it determines whether to select the first device (when the first information sent by the first device is the first information of the UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc., it determines whether to select the corresponding UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc.) as the perception node based on the parameters provided by the first message. The perception node can be at least one of a perception signal sending node, a perception signal receiving node, and a perception auxiliary information providing node. In this way, perception resource control can be effectively performed to avoid excessive perception services occupying too many resources, thereby affecting the communication service quality of the base station or UE, and can also meet the operator's requirement to limit the perception overhead to less than the configured threshold.
[0320] For parameters such as the number of perception tasks, the number of perception targets, the perception data throughput or throughput ratio, and the number of geographic location reports, the second device can obtain the currently used perception resource status information based on historical information statistics.
[0321] For the perception of time resources or time resource occupancy, perception of frequency resources or frequency resource occupancy, perception of space resources or space resource occupancy, perception of power resources or space resource occupancy and the number of connected devices participating in perception or the proportion of devices, when the first device is a UE, the second device can request the UE's service cell to obtain the currently used perception resource status information; when the first device is a base station, the second device can request the network management function node to obtain the currently used perception resource status information.
[0322] Step 4: The second device sends the perception configuration information to the first device determined as the perception node.
[0323] Step 5: The first device performs sensing according to the configuration information and generates a desired sensing result based on the sensing data of the first device.
[0324] Example 2
[0325] Step 1 (optional): The first device obtains or determines a perception load state reporting request, or a triggering event, or a period. The reporting request may come from the second device, instructing the first device to report the perception load state. The perception load state includes at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters. The optional perception load state triggering event includes the difference between the perception load-related parameter and the last reported value being greater than a first threshold, etc. The optional perception load state triggering period includes reporting once every preset time period, for example, reporting once every 5 minutes, etc.
[0326] Step 2. The first device sends a first message to the second device (such as a perception function; for example, AMF, etc.), and the first message includes at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters and the corresponding current state value. The perception load-related parameters include the aforementioned number of perception tasks, the number of perception targets, the perception time resources or the time resource occupancy rate, the perception frequency resources or the frequency resource occupancy rate, the perception space resources or the space resource occupancy rate, the perception power resources or the space resource occupancy rate, the perception control resources or the control resource occupancy rate, the perception data throughput or the throughput ratio, the number of geographic location reports, the number of connected devices participating in perception or the device ratio. The current state value can be the perception resources that have been used or the remaining (i.e., still usable) perception resources, such as the perception time resources that have been used per unit time, and the perception time resources that remain per unit time.
[0327] The perceived load status of a base station may be maintained by a network management function node. Therefore, the network management function node may act as a first device to send a first message to a second device, where the first message carries the perceived load status of the base station. When a single base station acts as the first device, the first message may also be sent by the base station.
[0328] When the first device is a UE, the sensing load related parameter is a UE-level parameter, that is, it represents the sensing resources used by the UE. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE.
[0329] When the first device is a base station, the sensing load related parameter is a cell-level parameter, that is, it represents the sensing resources used by the cell. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing in the cell to the total resources allocated to the cell.
[0330] When the first device is a UE group, the sensing load related parameter is a UE group level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the UE group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE group for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE group.
[0331] When the first device is a base station group, the sensing load related parameter is a cell group level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing by the cell group to the total resources allocated to the cell group.
[0332] When the first device is a base station, the data of the first message may be cell-level data, UE group-level data, or data of a cell and one or more UEs accessing the cell. The perceived load-related parameter may be a combination of UE group-level and cell group-level parameters, or a comprehensive parameter calculated based on the UE group-level parameter and the cell group-level parameter.
[0333] Step 3: The second device receives the first message. When the second device needs to select a perception node according to the perception service requirements, it determines whether to select the first device according to the parameters and current state values provided by the first message, and can also determine whether to select the first device according to information such as the parameter value threshold in Example 1 (when the first information sent by the first device is the first information of the UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc., it determines whether to select the corresponding UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc.) as the perception node. The perception node can be at least one of a perception signal sending node, a perception signal receiving node, and a perception auxiliary information providing node. In this way, perception resource control can be effectively performed to avoid excessive perception services occupying too many resources, thereby affecting the communication service quality of the base station or UE, and can also meet the operator's requirement to limit the perception overhead to be less than the configured threshold.
[0334] Step 4: The second device sends the perception configuration information to the first device determined as the perception node.
[0335] Step 5: The first device performs sensing according to the configuration information and generates a desired sensing result based on the sensing data of the first device.
[0336] Example 3
[0337] Step 1 (optional): The first device obtains or determines a reporting request, triggering event, or period for the future state of the perceived load. The reporting request may come from the second device, instructing the first device to report the perceived load state. The perceived load state includes at least one of the perceived load-related parameters or the comprehensive perceived load parameters. The optional future state triggering event of the perceived load includes the difference between the perceived load-related parameters and the last reported value being greater than a first threshold, etc. The optional future state triggering period of the perceived load includes reporting once every preset time period, for example, reporting once every 5 minutes, etc.
[0338] Step 2. The first device sends a first message to the second device (such as a perception function; for example, AMF, etc.), and the first message includes at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters and the corresponding future state value. The perception load-related parameters include the aforementioned perception task number, perception target number, perception time resources or time resource occupancy rate, perception frequency resources or frequency resource occupancy rate, perception space resources or space resource occupancy rate, perception power resources or space resource occupancy rate, perception control resources or control resource occupancy rate, perception data throughput or throughput proportion, number of geographic location reports, number of connected users participating in perception or user proportion. The future state value can be the perception resources that are expected to be available in the future, such as the perception time resources available per unit time.
[0339] The future state of the perceived load of a base station may be configured by a network management function node. Therefore, the network management function node may act as a first device to send a first message to a second device, where the first message carries the future state of the perceived load of the base station. When a single base station acts as the first device, the first message may also be sent by the base station.
[0340] When the first device is a UE, the sensing load related parameter is a UE-level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the UE. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE.
[0341] When the first device is a base station, the sensing load related parameter is a cell-level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing in the cell to the total resources allocated to the cell.
[0342] When the first device is a UE group, the sensing load related parameter is a UE group level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the UE group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE group for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE group.
[0343] When the first device is a base station group, the sensing load related parameter is a cell group level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing by the cell group to the total resources allocated to the cell group.
[0344] When the first device is a base station, the data in the first message may include cell-level data, UE group-level data, or data about the cell and one or more UEs accessing the cell. The perceived load-related parameter may be a combination of UE group-level and cell group-level parameters, or a comprehensive parameter calculated based on the UE group-level and cell group-level parameters.
[0345] Step 3: The second device receives the first message. When the second device needs to select a perception node based on the perception service requirements, it determines whether to select the first device (when the first information sent by the first device is the first information of the UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc., it determines whether to select the corresponding UE group, base station / cell group, cell and UE group, etc.) as the perception node based on the parameters and future state values provided by the first message. The perception node can be at least one of a perception signal sending node, a perception signal receiving node, and a perception auxiliary information providing node. In this way, perception resource control can be effectively performed to avoid excessive perception services occupying too many resources, thereby affecting the communication service quality of the base station or UE, and can also meet the operator's requirement to limit the perception overhead to less than the configured threshold.
[0346] Step 4: The second device sends the sensing configuration information to the first device determined as the sensing node.
[0347] Step 5: The first device performs sensing according to the configuration information and generates a desired sensing result based on the sensing data of the first device.
[0348] Example 4
[0349] Step 1. The second device (such as a perception function; for example, AMF, etc.; when the first device is a UE, the second device may also be a base station) sends a second message to the first device (such as a base station, and / or UE), and the second message includes at least one of the perception load-related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters, and the corresponding threshold value (usually the upper limit value of the parameter. The perception load-related parameters include the aforementioned perception task number, perception target number, perception time resources or time resource occupancy, perception frequency resources or frequency resource occupancy, perception space resources or space resource occupancy, perception power resources or space resource occupancy, perception control resources or control resource occupancy, perception data throughput or throughput ratio, number of geographic location reports, number of connected users participating in perception or user ratio. The above threshold value can be, for example, the maximum number of perception symbols or perception symbol ratio, the maximum number of perception subcarriers or perception subcarrier ratio, the maximum number of perception antennas / port data or antenna number / port number ratio). Since the second device may only be responsible for the perception of the UE or base station accessing the second device, the UE or base station may have previously configured perception that is still being executed. Therefore, by sending parameters and corresponding threshold values through the second device, the first device (base station or UE) can more accurately feedback whether the perception request can be accepted. Among them, regarding the threshold value, the second device is based on the perception service continuity requirements and perception service security requirements, for example, to avoid the base station or UE from being unable to meet the communication service quality requirements due to excessive perception services, such as avoiding the base station or UE from being unable to meet the perception service continuity requirements or perception service quality requirements due to excessive communication services. Optionally, the second message may also include communication load-related parameters, and corresponding threshold values. The communication load-related parameters include at least one of the following:
[0350] Radio resource status, for example, the radio resource status in the current protocol indicates the PRB utilization of each cell in the Multi-input Multi-output (MIMO) system, the PRB utilization of each SSB area, the PRB utilization of each slice for all uplink and downlink transmissions, and the utilization of the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) CCE in uplink and downlink scheduling.
[0351] Uplink / downlink PRB usage ratio (also called utilization ratio);
[0352] The utilization rate of PDCCH CCEs used for uplink scheduling (also called utilization ratio);
[0353] The utilization rate of PDCCH CCEs used for downlink scheduling (also called utilization ratio);
[0354] Number of devices in RRC connected / inactive state
[0355] The ratio of the number of devices in RRC connected / inactive state to the maximum number of devices that can be accommodated;
[0356] Uplink / downlink throughput (throughput).
[0357] When the first device is a base station, the perceived load threshold of the base station is usually configured by a network management function node, so the network management function node may also send the second message as the second device.
[0358] When the first device is a UE, the sensing load related parameter is a UE-level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the UE. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE.
[0359] When the first device is a base station, the sensing load related parameter is a cell-level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing in the cell to the total resources allocated to the cell.
[0360] When the first device is a UE group, the sensing load related parameter is a UE group level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the UE group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used by the UE group for sensing to the total resources allocated to the UE group.
[0361] When the first device is a base station group, the sensing load related parameter is a cell group level parameter, that is, it characterizes the sensing resources used by the cell group. The occupancy rate is also the ratio of the resources used for sensing by the cell group to the total resources allocated to the cell group.
[0362] When the first device is a UE combined base station group consisting of multiple UEs and multiple base stations, the perceived load related parameter can be a collection of UE group level and cell group level parameters, or a comprehensive parameter calculated based on the UE group level parameters and the cell group level parameters.
[0363] Step 2: The first device receives the second message, and the first device determines whether to accept the perception request based on the parameters (at least one of the first parameter and the second parameter) in the second message, whether the current perception resources (for example, the first device obtains by measurement, and / or the first device obtains by calculation) reach or exceed the corresponding threshold value, and / or whether the current communication resources reach or exceed the corresponding threshold value. This method can effectively control perception resources, avoid excessive communication services occupying too many resources and affecting the quality of perception services, and avoid excessive perception services occupying too many resources and affecting the quality of communication services of base stations / UEs. It can also meet the operator's requirement to limit perception overhead to less than the configured threshold.
[0364] Step 3: The first device sends a second message to the second device. The second message includes information on whether the sensing request is accepted. Accepting the sensing request means that the first device is at least one of a sensing signal sending node, a sensing signal receiving node, or a sensing assistance information providing node. If the sensing request is rejected, the second message may also include a rejection reason. The rejection reason may be, for example, that sensing resources exceed a threshold and / or that communication resources exceed a threshold.
[0365] Example 5
[0366] Step 0: The first device is participating in perception, where the first device is participating in perception and is at least one of a perception signal sending node, a perception signal receiving node, and a perception auxiliary information providing node.
[0367] Step 1. The second device makes a judgment based on at least one of the perception load related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters or the communication load related parameters. The second device may make a judgment based on at least one of the current state value, future state value, and threshold value of the perception load related parameters or the comprehensive perception load parameters or the communication load related parameters. The current state value, the future state value, or the threshold value may be calculated by the second device, or the second device may receive the reporting information of the first device (for example, step 2 in Example 1 or Example 2), or the second device may obtain it from other devices (for example, when the first device is a base station, the second device may obtain parameter values such as the perception time resource occupancy rate from the network management function node; when the first device is a UE, the second device may obtain parameter values such as the perception time resource occupancy rate from the service cell / base station of the UE). The second device determines whether to terminate the first device's participation in perception, or whether to update (for example, reduce) the perception resource configuration of the first device, or whether to update (for example, reduce) the communication resource configuration of the first device.
[0368] Step 2 (1): When the second device determines that the current perception load of the first device is high, or when the second device determines that the first device is captured, closed, and denies communication services, the second device can terminate the first device's participation in perception, or reduce the first device's perception resource configuration. Specifically, the second device can send a perception termination message to the first device, or send a perception switching message to the first device, or send a perception resource configuration message to the first device. The perception termination message is used to instruct the first device to terminate the perception in which it participates. If the first device participates in more than one perception, the perception termination message may also include a perception task identifier, which is used to indicate which perception task the first device terminates. The perception switching message is used to instruct the first device to switch the perception task in which it participates to other target devices, and the perception switching message includes the identifiers of the other target devices. If the first device participates in more than one perception, the perception switching message may also include a perception task identifier, which is used to indicate which perception task the first device switches to other target devices. The perception resource configuration message is used to update the perception resource configuration of the first device, and the resources of the perception resource configuration are less than the existing perception resource configuration.
[0369] Step 2 (2): When the second device determines that the current communication load of the first device is high, the second device may reduce the communication resource configuration of the first device. Specifically, the second device may send a communication resource configuration message to the first device, wherein the resources of the communication resource configuration are less than the existing communication resource configuration. The communication resource configuration message is used to ensure that the first device has resources available for perception, thereby avoiding the inability to execute a newly received perception request or a perception task switched to the first device. In particular, the inability to execute the perception task switched to the first device may affect the continuity of the ongoing perception service, resulting in an interruption of the perception service.
[0370] Step 4. The first device receives a message sent by the second device (at least one of a perception termination message, a perception switching message, a perception resource configuration message, or a communication resource configuration message), and performs perception termination, perception switching, perception configuration update, or communication configuration update according to the received message.
[0371] The present application proposes a resource control method for communication-aware fusion. By defining and interacting with parameters related to the perception load, network function nodes and base stations can select more appropriate devices as perception nodes, and UEs can better determine whether to participate in perception. This prevents excessive communication traffic from occupying too many resources, impacting the quality of perception services, and also prevents excessive perception traffic from occupying too many resources, impacting the quality of communication services of base stations or UEs. It also meets operators' requirements for limiting perception overhead to less than a configured threshold.
[0372] In an embodiment of the present application, a first device performs a first operation, the first operation including at least one of the following: sending a first message to a second device, the first message including first information; receiving a second message sent by the second device, the second message including the first information; wherein the first information includes at least one of a first parameter and a second parameter, wherein the first parameter includes at least one of a target parameter, and the second parameter is determined based on multiple target parameters; and the first parameter includes a perceived load-related parameter. By transmitting at least one of the perceived load-related parameter and the comprehensive perceived load parameter between communication devices, the communication devices can be aware of the perceived load-related parameter, which is beneficial for resource allocation decisions and thus helps improve the service performance of the communication system.
