[0050] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the embodiments of this application, the following description will be provided first.

[0051] Future mobile communication systems, such as B5G or 6G systems, will possess sensing capabilities in addition to communication capabilities. Sensing capabilities refer to the ability of one or more devices to sense information such as the location, distance, and speed of target objects through the transmission and reception of wireless signals or based on sensors, or to detect, track, identify, and image target objects, events, or environments. With the deployment of small base stations with high-frequency, high-bandwidth capabilities such as millimeter waves and terahertz waves in 6G networks, the resolution of sensing will be significantly improved compared to centimeter waves, enabling 6G networks to provide more refined sensing services. Typical sensing functions and application scenarios are shown in Table 1.

[0052] Table 1

[0053] Communication and sensing integration refers to the integrated design of communication and sensing functions within the same system through spectrum sharing and hardware sharing. While transmitting information, the system can sense information such as location, distance, and speed, and detect, track, and identify target devices or events. The communication system and the sensing system complement each other, thereby improving overall performance and bringing a better service experience.

[0054] The integration of communication and radar is a typical application of communication-sensing integration (communication-sensing fusion). In the past, radar systems and communication systems were strictly separated due to different research objects and focuses, and in most scenarios, the two systems were studied separately. In fact, radar and communication systems are both typical methods of information transmission, acquisition, processing, and exchange, and they share many similarities in terms of working principles, system architecture, and frequency bands. The design of communication and radar integration is highly feasible, mainly in the following aspects: First, both communication and sensing systems are based on electromagnetic wave theory, using the transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves to complete information acquisition and transmission; second, both communication and sensing systems have structures such as antennas, transmitters, receivers, and signal processors, resulting in significant overlap in hardware resources; with technological advancements, their operating frequency bands also increasingly overlap; furthermore, they share similarities in key technologies such as signal modulation and reception detection, and waveform design. The integration of communication and radar systems can bring many advantages, such as cost savings, size reduction, power consumption reduction, improved spectral efficiency, and reduced mutual interference, thereby improving the overall system performance.

[0055] Based on the different transmitting and receiving nodes of the sensing signals, there are 6 basic sensing modes, specifically including:

[0056] (1) Base station echo sensing. In this sensing mode, base station A sends a sensing signal and performs sensing measurements by receiving the echo of the sensing signal.

[0057] (2) Inter-base station air interface sensing. At this time, base station B receives the sensing signal sent by base station A and performs sensing measurements.

[0058] (3) Uplink air interface sensing. At this time, base station A receives the sensing signal sent by terminal A and performs sensing measurements.

[0059] (4) Downlink air interface sensing. At this time, terminal B receives the sensing signal sent by base station B and performs sensing measurements.

[0060] (5) Terminal echo sensing. At this time, terminal A sends a sensing signal and performs sensing measurement by receiving the echo of the sensing signal.

[0061] (6) Sidelink sensing between terminals. At this time, terminal B receives the sensing signal sent by terminal A and performs sensing measurements.

[0062] It should be noted that each of the above sensing modes uses one sensing signal transmitting node and one sensing signal receiving node as an example. In actual systems, one or more different sensing modes can be selected according to different sensing use cases and sensing requirements, and each sensing mode can have one or more transmitting and receiving nodes.

[0063] During sensing, it can be achieved by node A sending sensing reference information, node B receiving the sensing reference signal, and node B obtaining the sensing measurement / result. Node A can be base station 1, and node B can be the target UE, a UE near the target UE, or another base station 2. Alternatively, node A can send sensing reference information, receive the sensing reference signal, and obtain the sensing measurement / result. Node A can be the target UE, the serving base station of the target UE, or another base station 2. It can also be achieved by network nodes using sensor-type sensing devices deployed on their own or in the environment to obtain the sensing measurement / result. Sensor-type sensing: a sensing method that performs sensing services through means other than integrated communication and sensing systems. Typical devices include: lidar, millimeter-wave radar, visual sensors (including monocular vision, binocular vision, and infrared sensors), inertial measurement units (IMUs), and various other sensors (rain gauges, thermometers, hygrometers, etc.).

[0066] Here, H is not limited to the channels of the serving base station and the UE, but also includes the sensing channels obtained by other base stations through self-transmission and self-reception. It includes multiple scenarios.

[0067] Benefits: It can perform interference cancellation and 3D environment reconstruction.

[0068] The H sensed by the base station and the H measured by the UE are different. For example, is the H caused by the movement of a moving target in the environment due to the movement of an obstacle, or is it caused by the movement and changes of the UE itself?

[0069] If the information is relatively static, it can be sent directly (e.g., unchanged for several years).

[0070] If the measurements are obtained in real time, it is necessary to configure which devices send sensing signals and which devices receive sensing signals.

[0071] Effect: Improves prediction accuracy.

[0151] The information transmission method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0152] As shown in Figure 2, this application embodiment provides an information transmission method, including:

[0153] Step 201: The first device sends first information to the second device, the first information being used to indicate relevant information of the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0154] In this embodiment of the application, stopping the target perception service includes suspending the target perception service or terminating the target perception service. The aforementioned resumption of the target perception service may refer to resuming the suspended target perception service.

[0155] Optionally, the first device is a UE, and the second device is a device that controls the sensing services of the first device. The second device can be a core network device (such as a Location Management Function (LMF) or a new functional node), a base station (serving base station or neighboring cell base station), or a nearby UE, etc.

[0156] The aforementioned target awareness service can be a third device that performs sensing and measurement of the shared geographical location of the user of the first device. This third device can be a base station (serving base station or neighboring cell base station) or a nearby UE, as detailed in Table 2. The second device may include the third device.

[0157] Table 2

[0158] When the second device is a core network device, the first information can be sent to the second device via NAS signaling or forwarded to the second device via an intermediate node (e.g., AMF).

[0159] When the second device is a base station, the first information can be forwarded to the second device by the core network node (e.g., sent to the core network device via Non-Access Stratum (NAS) signaling, and then forwarded to the base station by the core network device), or sent to the second device via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, or sent to the second device via Medium Access Control (MAC) layer signaling, or sent to the second device via data plane control signaling.

[0160] When the second device is a nearby UE, the first information is forwarded to the second device through the core network node (sent to the core network function via NAS signaling, and then forwarded to the base station by the core network function), or forwarded to the second device through the base station (including forwarding via RRC signaling or MAC layer signaling), or sent to the second device via the sidelink, or sent to the second device via data plane control signaling.

[0161] Step 202: The first device obtains the second information sent by the second device. The second information is used to indicate agreement to stop or resume the target sensing service, or to indicate refusal to stop or resume the target sensing service.

[0162] The second information refers to the response information of the first information. For example, as shown in Figure 3, the first device sends a shutdown request to the second device (that is, the first information is used to request the cessation of the target sensing service), and the second device sends ACK information to the first device, that is, agrees to the request of the first information.

[0163] If the second device agrees to stop or resume the target sensing service, it controls the third device to stop or resume monitoring the behavior of the first device. The second and third devices can be installed separately or together.

[0164] When the second device is a core network device, the second information is sent to the first device via NAS signaling, or forwarded to the first device via an intermediate node (e.g., AMF).

[0165] When the second device is a base station, the second information is forwarded to the first device through the core network node (e.g., the second device first sends it to the core network node, and then sends it to the first device through NAS signaling), or it is sent to the first device through RRC signaling; or it is sent to the first device through MAC layer signaling; or it is sent to the first device through data plane control signaling.

[0166] When the second device is a nearby UE, the second information is forwarded to the first device through the core network node (e.g., the second device first sends it to the core network node, and then sends it to the first device through NAS signaling); or, it is sent to the first device through RRC signaling; or, it is sent to the first device through MAC layer signaling; or, it is sent to the first device through sidelink; or, it is sent to the first device through data plane control signaling.

[0167] In this embodiment, a first device sends first information to a second device, the first information indicating information related to a target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume; the first device receives second information sent by the second device, the second information indicating agreement to stop or resume the target sensing service, or indicating refusal to stop or resume the target sensing service. Through this scheme, the first device can flexibly stop or resume the target sensing service. For example, when a user needs to perform certain privacy-related actions, the target sensing service can be stopped, and when the user no longer needs to perform privacy-related actions, the target sensing service can be resumed. This allows for flexible stopping or resuming of network monitoring of user behavior, thereby effectively protecting the user's privacy information.

[0168] Optionally, the first information (which may also be information related to the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume) includes at least one of the following:

[0169] First item: First indication information, which is used to indicate the identifier of the target sensing service.

[0170] The target sensing service can be a sensing service that the first device has applied for but is not yet completed, a sensing service for which the first device has received a sensing service result and is not yet completed, or a sensing service that the first device has applied for or received a sensing service result for and is currently completed or suspended. For sensing services that the first device has applied for but are not yet completed, the first device can request to stop execution or request to resume execution.

[0171] The first indication information may be a sensing function request message identifier, a sensing function response message identifier, or a sensing result reception message identifier, or a sensing task / service / business identifier. This sensing function request message identifier, sensing function response message identifier, or sensing result reception message identifier indirectly indicates the corresponding target sensing service. The second device can determine the identifier of the target sensing service through the identifier indicated by this first indication information, and thus determine the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0172] The aforementioned sensing function request message identifier is the identifier corresponding to the message sent by the first device when requesting the sensing service. The aforementioned sensing function response message identifier is the identifier for the response information requested for the sensing function. The aforementioned sensing result reception message identifier is the identifier for the first device receiving the message carrying the result of the sensing service.

[0173] The second item: the second indication information, which is used to indicate the perception service group identifier or perception service set identifier corresponding to the target perception service.

[0174] If the sensing services that the first device has applied for or received sensing results for include one or more sets of sensing services, and the first device applies to close one set of sensing services, it can indicate the group identifier of the set of sensing services to be closed through the second indication information; or, the first device can apply to close one set of sensing services from a predefined set of multiple sets of sensing services through the second indication information.

[0175] For example, the aforementioned second indication information includes a sensing service group identifier (which may be a predefined identifier for a sensing service group), or it includes a sensing service group application message identifier, a sensing service group response message identifier, or a sensing service group sensing result reception message identifier. The sensing service group application message identifier, sensing service group response message identifier, or sensing service group sensing result reception message identifier indirectly indicates the corresponding sensing service group or sensing service set. Through the identifier indicated by this second indication information, the second device can determine which sensing service group or sensing service set the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0176] The aforementioned sensing service group application message identifier is the identifier of the application message sent by the first device when applying for the sensing service group. The aforementioned sensing service group response identifier is the identifier of the response message for the sensing service group application. The aforementioned sensing service group sensing result reception message identifier is the identifier of the message received by the first device carrying the sensing result corresponding to the sensing service group.

[0177] The third item: First time information, which is used to indicate the time range corresponding to the target perception service.

[0178] Optionally, the time range corresponding to the first time information refers to a period of time remaining until a target time. The target time can be the time when the first information is sent or the time when the first information is received. The target time can be predetermined by the protocol or can be indicated to the second device through the first information.

[0179] Through the aforementioned first information time, the second device is able to obtain that the target sensing service for which the first device applies to stop or resume is a sensing service applied for within the time range indicated by the aforementioned first time information, or a sensing service for which the result of the sensing service was received within the time range indicated by the aforementioned first time information.

[0180] Fourth item: First number, which is used to indicate the number of sensing services that the first device has applied for; or to indicate the number of sensing services for which the first device has received sensing service results;

[0181] Optionally, the first number is used to indicate the number of sensing services applied for by the first device within a preset time range; or to indicate the number of sensing services for which the first device has received sensing service results within a preset time range.

[0182] Optionally, the preset time range may be the time range indicated by the first time information, or it may be different from the time range indicated by the first time information. For example, the preset time range may be the same as the time indicated by the predefined time information.

[0183] Here, the number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume is indirectly indicated by the number of sensing services applied for or the number of sensing services that have received sensing service results, so that the second device can determine the number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume based on the aforementioned first number. Optionally, the target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume are either the first number of sensing services most recently applied for by the first device within a preset time range or the first number of sensing services that the first device has most recently received sensing service results within a preset time range.

[0184] For example, assuming the first number is K, it means that the sensing services that the first device wants to stop or resume are the K most recently applied sensing services starting from the target time, that is, the preset time range is [target time, infinity].

[0185] Fifth item: Second number, which indicates the number of target sensing services in the sensing service group or sensing service set.

[0186] The aforementioned sensing service group (or sensing service set) can be at least one pre-agreed sensing service group (or sensing service set), or at least one sensing service group that has been previously interacted with, such as a sensing service group that has been previously applied for, or a sensing service group that has previously received sensing results.

[0187] The second number mentioned above enables the second device to obtain the number of target sensing services that request to be stopped or resumed in the sensing service group or sensing service set.

[0188] For example, the second number is used to indicate the number of target sensing services in sensing service group 1 that request to be stopped or resumed, which is S1, and to indicate the number of target sensing services in sensing service group 2 that request to be stopped or resumed, which is S2, where S1 and S2 are integers.

[0189] Item 6: Third number, which indicates the number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0190] This third number can be used to indicate the total number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0191] The second device can obtain the number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume through the third number. Combined with other information (such as third or fourth indication information), it can further determine the sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0192] Item 7: Third indication information, which is used to indicate the identifier of the target sensing service in the sensing service group or the sensing service set.

[0193] The third indication information can also be represented by a bitmap, which contains the same number of bits as the number of sensing services in the sensing service group or sensing service set, and each bit in the bitmap corresponds to the identifier of each sensing service in the sensing service group or sensing service set. When the bit value is 1, it indicates that the sensing service identifier associated with that bit is the identifier of the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume; when the bit value is 0, it indicates that the sensing service identifier associated with that bit is not the identifier of the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0194] This third instruction information enables the second device to know which sensing services in the aforementioned sensing service group or sensing service set are sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0195] Item 8: Fourth indication information, which is used to indicate the minimum or maximum identifier of the sensing service in the sensing service group or sensing service set corresponding to the target sensing service.

[0196] The fourth indication information can be combined with the aforementioned second number, or with the aforementioned second indication and second number, or with the aforementioned second indication, third number, and second number, to indicate that the first device requests to stop or resume the target sensing service. That is, the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume is the sensing service corresponding to each sensing service identifier within the range of (minimum sensing service identifier, sensing service identifier S), or the target sensing service is the sensing service corresponding to each sensing service identifier within the range of (sensing service identifier P, maximum sensing service identifier). Here, S equals the minimum sensing service identifier plus the second number (or third number) minus 1, and P equals the maximum sensing service identifier minus the second number (or third number) plus 1.

[0197] For example, the target sensing service group includes three sensing services, and the identifiers of the three sensing services are 1, 2 and 3 respectively. The second number mentioned above is 2, and the fourth indication information indicates the smallest sensing service identifier, which is 1. Then the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume is the sensing service corresponding to sensing service identifier 1 and sensing service identifier 2.

[0198] Alternatively, if the second number is 2 and the fourth indication information indicates the maximum sensing service identifier, i.e., 3, then the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume is the sensing service corresponding to sensing service identifier 3 and sensing service identifier 2.

[0199] Ninth item: Fifth indication information, which is used to indicate the granularity information of the target sensing service, the granularity information including a single sensing service or a group of sensing services.

[0200] This fifth instruction information enables the second device to know whether the sensing operation requested by the first device to be suspended or resumed is a single sensing service or a group of sensing services.

[0201] Item 10: Sixth indication information, which is used to indicate the application information corresponding to the target perception service.

[0202] Optionally, the application information includes an application identifier or an application name. This sixth indication information can indicate the application in the form of a bitmap or by name. For example, if the application list of the first device includes F applications, it can be indicated by a bitmap containing F bits, with each bit associated with one application. When the value of the bit is 1, it indicates that the application associated with that bit is the application corresponding to the target sensing service; when the value of the bit is 0, it indicates that the application associated with that bit is not the application corresponding to the target sensing service.

[0203] This sixth instruction information can enable the second device to stop or resume target sensing services for the application, for example, to stop sending sensing results to the application.

[0204] Item 11: Association type information, wherein the association type information is used to indicate that the target sensing service is associated with a sensing service that has been applied for or with a sensing service that has received a sensing service result.

[0205] For example, if the association type information is used to indicate that the target sensing service is associated with a previously applied sensing service, then the number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume is determined based on the number of sensing services that the first device has applied for, as indicated by the first number. Or, for example, if the association type information is used to indicate that the target sensing service is associated with a sensing service that has received sensing service results, then the number of target sensing services that the first device requests to stop or resume is determined based on the number of sensing services that the first device has received sensing service results, as indicated by the first number. In other words, this association type information enables the second device to determine whether to use information related to previously applied sensing services or information related to sensing services that have received sensing service results when obtaining a request from the first device to stop or resume a target sensing service. In this embodiment, if a UE has applied for one or more sensing services and now wants to close (i.e., stop) one or more previously applied sensing services, as shown in Figure 4 (where the UE has applied for four sensing services and now wants to close the second and fourth sensing services), or as shown in Figure 5 (where the UE has applied for four sensing services and now wants to close two sensing services applied for within the time range indicated by the first time information), or as shown in Figure 6 (where the UE has applied for four sensing services and now wants to close a first number of sensing services), then for the scenario in Figure 4, a first message containing the aforementioned first indication information can be sent; for the scenario in Figure 5, a first message including the first time information can be sent; and for the scenario in Figure 6, a first message including the first number can be sent. The second device determines the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume based on this first message. Furthermore, to close a sensing service, the second or third device can close sensing measurements based on sensing signals or sensing measurements based on sensors; this application does not specifically limit this.

[0206] Alternatively, the UE may have applied for multiple sensing services (which can be divided into one or more groups of sensing services) and now wants to close one or more sensing services within one of the previously applied sensing service groups. As shown in Figure 7, the UE applies to close the second sensing service in a sensing service group. For scenario 1: If the number of sensing service groups provided by the network to the UE is 1, the UE can send a first message including a third indication, or a first message including a fourth indication and a second number. The second device determines the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume based on this first message. For scenario 2: If the number of sensing service groups provided by the network to the UE is greater than 1, the UE can send a first message including a third indication and a second indication, or a first message including a fourth indication, a second number, and a second indication.

[0207] Alternatively, the UE may have applied for multiple groups of sensing services and now wish to disable one of the previously applied sensing service groups. As shown in Figure 8, the UE requests to disable the first sensing service group out of two previously applied sensing service groups. The UE can then send first information including second indication information, or second and fifth indication information. The second device determines the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume based on this first information.

[0208] Alternatively, the UE or application function (AF) may have applied for one or a set of sensing services and now wants to disable the transmission of sensing results for certain applications within the mobile phone within those services. As shown in Figure 9, the UE applies to disable sensing services (e.g., health monitoring) for certain apps. The first information may include the aforementioned sixth indication information and the first indication information, or it may include the sixth indication information and the second indication information. Based on the first information, the second device sends the identifier of the application indicated by the sixth indication information (i.e., the sensing application function (AF) blacklist) to the sensing result sending device. The sensing result sending device then stops sending sensing results to the corresponding application or application function (AF) based on the sensing application blacklist.

[0209] Optionally, the first information further includes at least one of the following:

[0210] Item 12: Mode indication information, which is used to indicate the mode for stopping or resuming the target sensing service.

[0211] The modes include request mode, periodic mode, or semi-persistent mode.

[0212] This mode indication information enables the second device to know which mode triggered the aforementioned first information.

[0213] Item 13: Time indication information, which is used to indicate the time for stopping or resuming the target sensing service.

[0214] Based on the time indication information, the second device stops or resumes the target sensing service within the corresponding time period.

[0215] The time indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0216] A1: First duration, the first duration is used to indicate the interval between the first time and the second time, the first time is the time when the second device receives the first information, and the second time is the start time when the first device requests to stop the target sensing service.

[0217] The first duration is used to indicate how long after the second device receives the first information will it begin the target sensing service.

[0218] A2: Second duration, the second duration is used to indicate the interval between the third time and the first time or the fourth time, the third time is the start time of the first device requesting the resumption of the target sensing service, and the fourth time is the termination time of the target sensing service.

[0219] The second duration is used to indicate how long after the second device receives the first information, it begins to resume the target sensing service (e.g., for non-periodic execution), or to indicate how long after the first device suspends the target sensing service, it begins to resume the target sensing service.

[0220] The first and second durations mentioned above can be applied to scenarios where the target perception service is semi-persistently executed or not executed at all, or to scenarios where it is triggered by events.

[0221] A3: First period, the first period is used to indicate the time interval between two consecutive requests by the first device to stop the target sensing service; or, it is used to indicate the time interval between two consecutive requests by the first device to resume the target sensing service;

[0222] This first cycle can be applied to scenarios where target-aware business processes are executed or not executed periodically, or semi-persistently executed or not executed.

[0223] Based on the first cycle described above, the second device can determine the time interval between two consecutive or first information events.

[0224] A4: The third duration is used to indicate the duration during which the first device requests to stop or resume the target sensing service within the first period.

[0225] Based on the aforementioned third duration, the second device can determine during which period of the first cycle to stop or resume the target perception service.

[0226] A5: First ratio, which indicates the ratio between the third duration and the first cycle;

[0227] A6: First offset, the first offset is used to indicate the time offset between the fifth time and the sixth time, the fifth time is the time when the first device requests to stop or resume the target sensing operation within the first cycle, and the sixth time is the cycle start time corresponding to the first cycle.

[0228] The aforementioned third duration, first proportion, and first offset can be applied to scenarios where the target perception business is executed or not executed periodically, or semi-persistently executed or not executed.

[0229] Based on the aforementioned first ratio or first offset, the second device can determine the time to stop or resume the execution of the target sensing service within the first cycle.

[0230] Optionally, the second information includes at least one of the following:

[0231] B1: Seventh instruction information, which is used to indicate consent to stop or resume the target perception service, or to indicate refusal to stop or resume the target perception service.

[0232] For example, the seventh indication information includes an agreement flag or a rejection flag. For instance, the seventh indication information includes 1 bit, where a value of 1 indicates agreement and a value of 0 indicates rejection. Alternatively, the second indication information can be either accept (indicating agreement) or reject (indicating rejection).

[0233] B2: Eighth indication information, which is used to indicate the reason for refusing to stop or resume the target sensing service.

[0234] B3: Ninth indication information, which is used to indicate the correspondence information of the target sensing service in the first sensing service list.

[0235] This correspondence information can be bitmap information, such as the sorting information of the target sensing service in the first sensing service list. The second device can determine the target sensing service from the first sensing service list based on this ninth indication information.

[0236] For example, the requirement corresponding to the first piece of information is to shut down the sensing services shown in Table 3.

[0237] Table 3

[0238] The ninth instruction message can be 1101, which means that the second device agrees to the application to shut down the sensing services for weather monitoring, crowd monitoring and channel reconstruction.

[0239] B4: Tenth indication information, the tenth indication information is used to indicate the correspondence information of the perception service group corresponding to the target perception service in the second perception service list, the second perception service list includes at least two perception service groups.

[0240] For example, the requirement corresponding to the first piece of information is to shut down the sensing services shown in Table 4.

[0241] Table 4

[0242] The tenth indication information can be 10, indicating that the second device agrees to the application to close the sensing service for the first group, i.e., the sensing service identifier is (1, 4) and the sensing service function is (weather monitoring, channel reconstruction).

[0243] Optionally, the second information further includes at least one of the following:

[0244] The identifier of the third device, which is a device that performs sensing and measurement on the first device;

[0245] The time when the target-aware business stops or resumes;

[0246] The target area is the region where services have stopped or resumed.

[0247] Types of target-aware services;

[0248] The application scope of the perception results corresponding to target perception services;

[0249] Configuration information for enabled or disabled sensing reference nodes or sensing collaboration nodes;

[0250] Sensing performance requirements;

[0251] Information required for the sensing method;

[0252] The required information for sensing signals;

[0253] Sensing measurement results or required information about the sensing measurement quantity.

[0254] Optionally, the method in this application embodiment further includes:

[0255] Send an eleventh indication message, which is used to indicate relevant information about a third device recommended by the first device, wherein the third device is a device that performs sensing and measurement on the first device.

[0256] In this embodiment of the application, the first device recommends a third device to the core network device or base station based on Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurements (e.g., neighbor cell quality measurement reports), so that the core network device or base station can select a suitable third device for sensing measurements.

[0257] Optionally, the third device satisfies at least one of the following:

[0258] C1: The third device is the base station corresponding to the N cells with the strongest signal quality in the cell list reported by the Radio Resource Management (RRM), where N is a positive integer;

[0259] C2: The third device is the base station corresponding to the cell in the cell list reported by RRM.

[0260] In this embodiment of the application, if the content of item C2 is not included in the eleventh indication information, the third device can be assumed to be the base station corresponding to the cell in the cell list reported by the RRM.

[0261] C3: The third device is a device that transmits a first signal associated with a target perception configuration identifier, the first signal being a signal used for perception.

[0262] The target perception configuration identifier is the perception configuration identifier received by the first device.

[0263] C4: The third device is a device for transmitting a second signal associated with a target perception report identifier, the second signal being a signal used for perception.

[0264] The target perception report identifier is the perception report identifier received by the first device.

[0265] Optionally, the eleventh instruction information may include the contents of at least one of C1 to C4 above.

[0266] The first or second signal mentioned above includes at least one of the following: CSI Reference Signal (CSI-RS), Tracking Reference Signal (TRS), Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), or Synchronization Signal.

[0267] Optionally, the first device sends first information to the second device, including:

[0268] Obtain third information, which is used to indicate whether the network-side device allows the relevant capabilities of the target awareness service to request suspension or resumption;

[0269] If the third information indicates permission to request or resume the target sensing service, the first information is sent to the second device.

[0270] In this embodiment, the first device obtains third information from a second or fourth device. The fourth device refers to a capability registration device, such as a core network access management device, like an AMF or a base station.

[0271] Optionally, the first device obtains the aforementioned third information via broadcast or dedicated signaling.

[0272] Optionally, the third information includes at least one of the following:

[0273] Does it support stopping or resuming the sensing service?

[0274] Supported granularity for stopping or resuming sensing services, the granularity including sensing operation groups, individual sensing operations, or all sensing services;

[0275] Supported modes for stopping or resuming sensing services, including request mode, periodic mode, or semi-persistent mode.

[0276] In the above scheme, the first device sends first information to the second device, which is used to indicate information related to the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume; the first device obtains second information sent by the second device, which is used to indicate agreement to stop or resume the target sensing service, or to indicate refusal to stop or resume the target sensing service. Through this scheme, the first device can flexibly stop or resume the target sensing service. For example, it can stop the target sensing service when the user needs to perform certain privacy-related actions, and resume the target sensing service when the user no longer needs to perform privacy-related actions. This allows for flexible stopping or resuming of network monitoring of user behavior, thereby effectively protecting the user's privacy information.

[0277] As shown in Figure 10, this application embodiment also provides an information transmission method, including:

[0278] Step 1001: The second device obtains first information, which is used to indicate relevant information of the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume.

[0279] Optionally, the second device acquires the first information sent by the first device.

[0280] Optionally, the first device is a UE, and the second device is a device that controls the sensing services of the first device. The second device can be a core network device (such as a Location Management Function (LMF) or a new functional node), a base station (serving base station or neighboring cell base station), or a nearby UE, etc.

[0281] The aforementioned target awareness service can be a device that uses a third device to sense and measure the shared geographical location of a user on a first device. This third device can be a base station (serving base station or neighboring cell base station) or a nearby UE. Specific details of this target awareness service are shown in Table 2.

[0282] Step 1002: The second device sends a second message based on the first message. The second message is used to indicate agreement to stop or resume the target sensing service, or to indicate refusal to stop or resume the target sensing service.

[0283] In this embodiment, the second device acquires first information, which is used to indicate information related to the target sensing service that the first device requests to stop or resume. Based on the first information, the second device sends second information, which indicates agreement to stop or resume the target sensing service, or indicates refusal to stop or resume the target sensing service. This first information allows the first device to flexibly stop or resume the target sensing service. For example, the target sensing service can be stopped when the user needs to perform certain privacy-related actions, and resumed when the user no longer needs to perform privacy-related actions. This allows for flexible stopping or resuming of network monitoring of user behavior, thereby effectively protecting the user's privacy information.

[0284] Optionally, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0285] First indication information, the first indication information is used to indicate the identifier of the target sensing service;

[0286] The second indication information is used to indicate the perception service group identifier or perception service set identifier corresponding to the target perception service;

[0287] First time information, which is used to indicate the time range corresponding to the target perception service;

[0288] The first number is used to indicate the number of sensing services that the first device has applied for or the number of sensing services that the first device has received sensing service results from.

[0289] The second number indicates the number of target sensing services in a sensing service group or sensing service set.
