[0136] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a resource allocation method, apparatus, access network equipment, and terminal, which can meet the requirements of different perception modes and different perception service nodes and realize time slot configuration for perception signals.

[0137] Among them, the method and the device are based on the same application concept. Since the principles of solving problems by the method and the device are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can refer to each other, and the repeated parts will not be repeated.

The system may also include a core network part, such as an evolved packet system (EPS), a 5G system (5GS), etc.

[0139] The terminal device involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, a handheld device with wireless connection function, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. In different systems, the name of the terminal device may also be different. For example, in a 5G system, the terminal device may be called User Equipment (UE). A wireless terminal device can communicate with one or more core networks (CN) via a radio access network (RAN). The wireless terminal device may be a mobile terminal device, such as a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone) and a computer with a mobile terminal device. For example, it may be a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-built-in or vehicle-mounted mobile device that exchanges voice and / or data with a radio access network.

The network device may also coordinate the attribute management of the air interface. For example, the network device involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a base transceiver station (BTS) in the Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) or code division multiple access (CDMA), a network device (NodeB) in wide-band code division multiple access (WCDMA), an evolutionary Node B (eNB or e-NodeB) in the long term evolution (LTE) system, a 5G base station (gNB) in the 5G network architecture (next generation system), a 6G base station in the 6G network architecture, a home evolved Node B (HeNB), a relay node, a femto, a pico, etc., and is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. In some network structures, the network device may include a centralized unit (CU) node and a distributed unit (DU) node, and the centralized unit and the distributed unit may also be geographically separated.

[0141] In order to facilitate a clearer understanding of the various embodiments of the present disclosure, some relevant knowledge is first introduced.

[0142] ISAC technology, a key candidate for NR Release 19 evolution, is based on the concept of introducing wireless sensing capabilities into wireless mobile communications. Wireless sensing involves sensing environmental information through wireless signals. This information includes the distribution, size, and number of objects, human movements, and even breathing and heart rates. Wireless sensing involves transmitting radio signals to the environment to be sensed and collecting the signals at the receiving end, which have been reflected, scattered, and transmitted through multiple paths. Because the collected wireless signals have been subjected to the environment, they carry environmental information. After receiving the signals, complex signal processing is performed to identify environmental characteristics and reconstruct the perceived environment on a computer. This includes identifying people and objects, detecting human movements, and even breathing and heart rates. This technology is used in scenarios such as intrusion detection and location tracking in drones and smart factories, health monitoring in smart homes, and security in social governance.

[0143] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a wireless sensing mode provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Depending on the participating devices (base station or UE) and whether the transmitting and receiving devices are the same, as shown in Figure 1, the sensing mode includes at least the following six basic forms.

[0144] 1. The base station transmits and receives the data independently. The base station sends a sensing signal, which is then reflected by the object being measured and then receives the reflected wave.

[0145] 2. Base station A transmits and base station B receives. Base station A sends a sensing signal, which is reflected by the object being measured and then received by base station B.

[0146] 3. UE sends and base station receives. The UE sends a sensing signal, which is reflected by the object being measured and then the base station receives the reflected wave.

[0147] 4. The base station sends a sensing signal, which is then reflected by the object being measured and received by the UE.

[0148] 5. UE self-transmits and self-receives. The UE sends a sensing signal, which is reflected by the object being measured and then receives the reflected wave.

[0149] 6. UE A sends and UE B receives. UE A sends a sensing signal, which is reflected by the object being measured and then UE B receives the reflected wave.

[0150] For nodes with different perception modes and for different perception services, the corresponding perception signal frame formats and time slot configurations will be different.

[0151] In the related art, the communication frame structure only includes the definitions of downlink and uplink communication symbols, as shown in Table 1, where D represents a downlink symbol, U represents an uplink symbol, and F represents a flexible symbol.

[0152] Table 1 Time slot format

[0153] When a wireless communication system needs to support perception services, it is necessary to add a perception signal sending design. The current downlink and uplink definitions cannot meet the needs of different perception modes. For example, for base station A sends and B receives, base station sends and receives independently, UE sends and receives independently, and UE A sends and B receives modes, the downlink or uplink definition of perception sending signals cannot be used.

[0154] At present, the design and resource allocation scheme of the synaesthesia integrated signal frame structure has not been clearly defined. How to design and configure the synaesthesia integrated frame structure and time slot configuration for different perception modes and different perception service nodes is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0155] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for transmitting synaesthesia-integrated signals, proposes a synaesthesia-integrated signal frame structure design and a time slot configuration indication scheme, and adopts corresponding perception signal resource allocation methods for different perception modes, different perception service nodes, and at different perception stages. The method has the advantages of simple signal resource configuration, high spectrum utilization, and good compatibility with existing communication systems.

[0164] In the disclosed embodiments, the frame structure of the first signal (e.g., the synaesthesia integrated signal) supports static configuration, semi-static configuration, or dynamic configuration.

[0274] Here, the resource allocation method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated through several specific embodiments.

[0275] Example 1: Applicable to the perception mode of TRP sending + terminal receiving, and the perception mode of TRP self-sending and self-receiving.

[0276] Figure 4 is one of the schematic diagrams of the frame structure of the first signal provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. In the frame structure of the first signal shown in Figure 4, TS represents the perception transmission symbol, such as the TS symbol in the transmission time slot T (horizontal line fill), or the TS symbol in the flexible time slot F (dot fill); TC represents the communication transmission symbol, such as the TC symbol in the transmission time slot T (horizontal line fill), or the TC symbol in the flexible time slot F (dot fill); RC represents the communication reception symbol, such as the RC symbol in the flexible time slot F (dot fill).

[0277] In the transmitted symbols in transmit slots T (bar-filled) and flexible slots F (dot-filled), the resource ratio of sensing transmit symbols to communication transmit symbols can be flexibly configured, as can the position of sensing transmit symbols relative to communication transmit symbols. For example, in every T slot or T symbol in an F slot, symbols 0-1 are used for sensing; or, alternatively, symbols 0-1 are used for sensing during each sensing cycle. The figure uses an SCS of 30 kHz and a communication cycle of 2.5 ms as an example. The sensing cycle is an integer multiple of the communication cycle.

[0281] FIG6 is a second schematic diagram of the frame structure of the first signal provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. In the frame structure of the first signal shown in FIG6 , different T symbol / R symbol ratios are performed based on symbols within the flexible time slot F. Among the transmission symbols in the flexible time slot F, the resource ratio of the sensing transmission symbols to the communication transmission symbols can be flexibly configured, with the communication symbols in front and the sensing transmission symbols in the back (near the transmit / receive switching point).

In the frame structure of the first signal shown in Figure 7, different T / R symbol ratios are implemented based on symbols within the flexible time slot F. The ratio of sensing and communication transmission symbol resources in the transmission symbols in the flexible time slot F can be flexibly configured, with the sensing transmission symbols coming first (near the transmit / receive switching point) and the communication symbols coming after. For example, among the T symbols in the F time slot, symbols 0-1 are used for sensing, and the remaining T symbols are used for communication.

[0286] The configuration fields involved in the time slot configuration information of the first signal include but are not limited to at least one of the following: perception period; perception transmission symbol repetition period; perception transmission symbol position in the F time slot (1 indicates before the switching point, 0 indicates after the cut-in point); perception transmission symbol number (continuous).

[0287] For example, the communication cycle is 2.5ms; the perception cycle is configured as 5ms; the perception transmission symbol repetition period is 0 (no repetition); the perception transmission symbol is at position 0 in the F time slot (after the switching point); the number of perception transmission symbols (continuous) is 3 (3 perception transmission symbols after the switching point).

In the frame structure of the first signal shown in FIG8 , the ratio of sensing and communication transmission symbol resources in the transmission symbols in the transmission time slot T and the flexible time slot F can be flexibly configured, and the positions of the sensing and communication symbols can be flexibly configured. For example, in the T symbol in each T time slot or F time slot, symbols 0 to 1 are used for sensing; or the last symbol in each sensing cycle is used for sensing. The figure uses SCS = 30kHz and a 2.5ms communication cycle as an example. The sensing cycle is an integer multiple of the communication cycle.
