[0113] The method and the device are based on the same inventive concept. Since the principles of the method and the device for solving problems are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can be referred to each other, and the repeated parts will not be described.

[0117] In practical applications, there are many application scenarios of sensory fusion, which can include, for example:

[0118] I. Outdoor scene

[0119] The sensory fusion of the outdoor scene can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the detection, positioning and reconstruction of non-ground scenes, and the other is the detection, positioning and reconstruction of ground scenes.

[0120] For example, the non-ground scene mainly refers to low-altitude abnormal object detection, positioning and tracking, and the ground scene mainly refers to the detection, positioning of ground traffic and pedestrians, and the reconstruction of buildings and vehicles.

[0121] II. Indoor scene

[0122] The general indoor scene perception fusion can be divided into three types: private network demand, public demand and home demand. The private network demand is mainly for the scene where both perception and communication are localized and high security and privacy are required, such as the positioning, reconstruction, imaging, gesture / posture recognition of workers, robots and equipment in a smart factory. The public demand is mainly for the indoor environment reconstruction of public scenes such as shopping malls. The home demand is mainly for monitoring the body state such as human motion and breathing in a home or medical scene, such as indoor intelligent health breathing detection application.

[0123] The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a perception system, which can include network devices and terminal devices. The network devices and the terminal devices can communicate with each other, the network devices can communicate with each other, and the terminal devices can communicate with each other. The following will introduce several perception forms in the perception system according to FIG. 1.

[0124] Referring to FIG. 1, the main perception forms in the perception fusion are as follows,

[0125] Mode 1: Network device self-transmission and self-reception.

[0126] The network device transmits a perception signal, and after the perception signal is reflected by a measured object, the network device receives a perception response.

[0127] Mode 2: Network device A transmission and network device B reception.

[0128] The network device A transmits a perception signal, and after the perception signal is reflected by a measured object, the network device B receives a perception response.

[0129] Mode 3: UE transmission and network device reception.

[0130] The UE transmits a perception signal, and after the perception signal is reflected by a measured object, the network device receives a perception response.

[0131] Mode 4: Network device transmission and UE reception.

[0132] The network device transmits a perception signal, and after the perception signal is reflected by a measured object, the UE receives a perception response.

[0133] Mode 5: UE self-transmission and self-reception.

[0134] The UE transmits a perception signal, and after the perception signal is reflected by a measured object, the UE receives a perception response.

[0135] Mode 6: UE A transmission and UE B reception.

[0136] The UE A transmits a perception signal, and after the perception signal is reflected by a measured object, the UE B receives a perception response.

[0137] In the above-mentioned sensing and communication fusion scenarios, resource multiplexing of communication resources and sensing resources is generally required, and the multiplexing methods mainly include frequency division multiplexing, time division multiplexing, comb-like interval sparse allocation multiplexing, and space division multiplexing. However, regardless of the multiplexing method, a part of the communication resources originally used for communication will be occupied for sensing, and thus the communication function will be affected to different degrees.

[0138] Based on this, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a sensing method, device, apparatus, and storage medium, to solve the problem of communication resource occupation by sensing function in sensing and communication fusion.

[0139] Referring to FIG. 2, a flowchart of a sensing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is shown, and the method is applied to a first device and includes the following steps:

[0140] S201, a first sensing resource is acquired; wherein the bandwidth of the first sensing resource is greater than a first threshold.

[0141] The first sensing resource can refer to a resource that is different from a communication resource. In some embodiments, the first sensing resource can refer to a resource with a bandwidth satisfying at least one of the following conditions:

[0142] (1) the absolute bandwidth is greater than a fourth threshold;

[0143] (2) the relative bandwidth is greater than a fifth threshold;

[0144] (3) greater than the bandwidth of a target communication resource, the target communication resource being a mobile communication resource overlapping the first sensing resource.

[0145] (4) the difference between the bandwidth of the first sensing resource and the bandwidth of the target communication resource is greater than or equal to a bandwidth difference threshold.

[0146] Specifically, when the first sensing resource satisfies the above condition (1), the first threshold in S201 can refer to the fourth threshold, and the "bandwidth" in S201 can refer to the absolute bandwidth. In some embodiments, the absolute bandwidth can refer to the frequency range occupied by the signal; alternatively, the absolute bandwidth can refer to the bandwidth when the signal power decreases by a preset value, for example, the bandwidth when the signal power decreases by 10 dB, i.e., the absolute bandwidth refers to the bandwidth at -10 dB.

[0147] The relative bandwidth can refer to the ratio between the absolute bandwidth and the center frequency. When the first sensing resource satisfies the above condition (2), the first threshold in S201 can refer to the fifth threshold, and the "bandwidth" in S201 can refer to the relative bandwidth.

[0148] In the condition (3), the mobile communication resource overlapping with the first sensing resource can refer to a mobile communication resource whose bandwidth range overlaps with the bandwidth range of the first sensing resource, and the first threshold can refer to the bandwidth of the target communication resource. For example, if the frequency range of the first sensing resource is A-B, the frequency range of a certain mobile communication resource is C-D, and if A

[0149] In the condition (4), the bandwidth difference threshold can be a preset value, and the first threshold in S201 can refer to the sum of the bandwidth of the target communication resource and the bandwidth difference threshold. Here, the greater the bandwidth difference between the first sensing resource and the target communication resource, the smaller the impact on mobile communication when performing sensing operation based on the first sensing resource. Therefore, by limiting the bandwidth difference between the first sensing resource and the target communication resource, the impact of the sensing operation on mobile communication can be further reduced.

[0150] In some embodiments, the resource satisfying the above condition (1) and / or condition (2) can be a first type of resource, and the first type of resource can include an ultra-wideband resource and / or a quasi-ultra-wideband resource.

[0151] For example, the ultra-wideband resource can refer to an absolute bandwidth of -10 dB being greater than 500 MHz (here, 500 MHz is the fourth threshold described above), or a relative bandwidth being greater than 20% (here, 20% is the fifth threshold described above). Different countries have different definitions of ultra-wideband resources, and the method provided by the present disclosure is applicable to ultra-wideband resources defined in different countries.

[0152] It should be noted that, in the case where the first sensing resource belongs to / includes an ultra-wideband resource, the frequency resource and power spectrum limit allocated by different countries for the ultra-wideband resource are satisfied when performing sensing operation using the first sensing resource.

[0153] The quasi-ultra-wideband resource can refer to a resource whose bandwidth limit does not meet the limit of the above ultra-wideband resource, but the absolute bandwidth is still very large, or the relative bandwidth is very large. For example, the quasi-ultra-wideband resource can refer to a resource whose absolute bandwidth is greater than the fourth threshold and less than the absolute bandwidth of the ultra-wideband resource, or a resource whose relative bandwidth is greater than the fifth threshold and less than the relative bandwidth of the quasi-ultra-wideband resource.

[0154] For example, if the absolute bandwidth of the ultra-wideband resource is greater than 500 MHz at -10 dB, the quasi-ultra-wideband resource can refer to a resource whose absolute bandwidth is greater than 300 MHz at -10 dB; or, if the relative bandwidth of the ultra-wideband resource is greater than 20%, the quasi-ultra-wideband resource can refer to a resource whose relative bandwidth can be greater than 15%.

[0155] Alternatively, the UWB-like resource refers to a resource whose absolute bandwidth is greater than a fourth threshold value or whose relative bandwidth is greater than a fifth threshold value, and whose bandwidth difference from the UWB resource satisfies a preset condition.

[0156] For example, the preset condition can refer to a bandwidth difference between the absolute bandwidth of the UWB resource being greater than a first bandwidth or a difference between the relative bandwidth of the UWB being greater than a second bandwidth.

[0157] For example, if the absolute bandwidth of the UWB resource at -10 dB is greater than 500 MHz, the first bandwidth is 100 MHz, and the UWB-like resource can refer to a resource whose absolute bandwidth at -10 dB is greater than 400 MHz. Alternatively, if the relative bandwidth of the UWB resource is greater than 20%, the second bandwidth is 2%, and the UWB-like resource can refer to a resource whose relative bandwidth is greater than 18%.

[0158] The resource satisfying the above conditions (3) and (4) can refer to a second type of resource. The second type of resource can refer to a resource that overlaps with the mobile communication resource, but the bandwidth of the resource itself is much greater than the bandwidth of the overlapping communication resource, and the transmit power spectral density of the sensing signal on the overlapping resource is much smaller than the power spectral density of the communication signal on the overlapping resource.

[0159] For example, if a certain resource overlaps with a mobile communication resource by 5M, but the bandwidth of the resource itself is 500M, which is much greater than 5M, and the transmit power spectral density of the resource on the overlapping 5M resource is much smaller than the transmit power spectral density of the communication signal on the overlapping 5M resource, the resource belongs to the above-mentioned second type of resource.

[0160] It should be noted that "much greater than" in the present disclosure can refer to a difference between the bandwidth of the resource itself and the bandwidth of the overlapping communication resource satisfying a certain preset condition, for example, the bandwidth difference exceeding a bandwidth threshold, or the bandwidth of the resource itself exceeding a certain larger bandwidth threshold (for example, the above-mentioned first threshold); "much smaller than" in the present disclosure can refer to a difference between the power spectral density of the resource on the overlapping resource and the power spectral density of the communication signal on the overlapping resource satisfying a certain preset condition, for example, the power spectral density difference exceeding a power spectral density threshold, or the power spectral density of the resource on the overlapping resource being less than a certain smaller power spectral density threshold, which can be configured by the network.

[0161] For example, if the bandwidth for sensing is B1 and the bandwidth for communication is B2, B1 is much greater than B2; if the power spectral density for sensing is PSD1 and the power spectral density of the communication signal is PSD2, PSD1 needs to be less than a certain smaller power spectral density threshold, or PSD1 is much smaller than PSD2, to ensure that the sensing signal does not interfere with the communication signal.

[0162] For the second type of resource, if a power spectrum density (PSD1) is configured after sensing, when determining the resource bandwidth, the limitation for the bandwidth is that the sensing process can complete effective sensing on a given bandwidth and a given power spectrum density, and will not cause interference to the communication simultaneously performed on the same time-frequency resource.

[0163] In some embodiments, the resource satisfying the above condition (3) and / or condition (4) (such as the second type of resource) can be a combined resource of mobile communication resources belonging to different operators. For example, resource 1 belongs to mobile communication operator A, resource 2 belongs to mobile communication operator B, and resource 3 belongs to mobile communication operator C. Then, the resource satisfying the above condition (3) and / or condition (4) can be a combination of resource 1, resource 2, and resource 3. For example, resource 1 and resource 2 are combined into resource a, resource 1 and resource 3 are combined into resource b, resource 2 and resource 3 are combined into resource c, and resource 1, resource 2, and resource 3 are combined into resource d. Resource a, resource b, resource c, and resource d can be the resource satisfying condition (3) and / or condition (4). In this way, the mobile communication resources originally belonging to different operators are combined to obtain a wider bandwidth sensing resource.

[0164] For example, operator A has 100MHz mobile communication resource, operator B has 100MHz mobile communication resource, and operator C has 100MHz mobile communication resource. The distance resolution that can be obtained by 100MHz bandwidth is, for example, 1.5 meters. If a smaller distance resolution is desired, a larger bandwidth sensing resource is needed, for example, 200MHz sensing resource can obtain a sensing distance resolution of 0.75 meters. However, neither operator A, nor operator B, nor operator C has enough mobile communication resource for sensing (for example, if all the mobile communication resource is used for sensing by time division, only 100MHz bandwidth sensing resource can be obtained). A feasible method is to combine the three 100MHz mobile communication resources of the three operators to form 200MHz or 300MHz resource for sensing, so that a larger sensing bandwidth can be obtained and a smaller sensing distance resolution can be obtained. In some embodiments, the power spectral density of the sensing signal on the combined resource a, resource b, resource c, or resource d can be less than a threshold, or the sensing signal can be designed properly so that the original mobile communication resource can still be used for communication function when performing sensing operation. For example, resource a is composed of resource 1 and resource 2. When transmitting a sensing signal on resource a, a proper sensing signal transmission power spectral density (and / or proper signal design) can be set so that resource 1 and / or resource 2 can still be used for mobile communication at the same time. Specifically, for example, 100MHz mobile communication resource of operator A and 100MHz mobile communication resource of operator B are combined to obtain 200MHz sensing resource, and then the combined 200MHz sensing resource is used to perform sensing operation. By setting a proper power spectral density limit (and / or signal design), the network of operator A can still use its original 100MHz mobile communication resource to continue mobile communication while transmitting a sensing signal on the combined 200MHz resource, and operator B can also use its original 100MHz mobile communication resource to continue mobile communication at the same time.

[0165] The above 100MHz is only an example, and can also be 30MHz or other bandwidth values. In addition, the mobile communication resources of different operators used to combine to form sensing resource are not necessarily continuous, and can have a certain interval. If there is a certain interval, the mobile communication resources belonging to different operators can be combined to form sensing resource by carrier aggregation.

[0166] In a possible implementation, obtaining the first sensing resource can be obtaining first configuration information, and the first configuration information can include the first sensing resource, or in other words, the first configuration information is used to configure the first sensing resource.

[0167] For example, the first sensing resource can include a specific resource configured in a time domain, a frequency domain, a space domain, a code domain, etc. For example, the first sensing resource can include, but is not limited to, a signal sending time (time domain), a frequency range (frequency domain), a scanning direction (space domain), an encoding mode (code domain), etc.

[0168] Here, the first sensing resource is obtained, i.e., the information of the first sensing resource is obtained. Similarly, the first configuration information includes the first sensing resource, i.e., the information of the first sensing resource is included in the first configuration information. The information of the first sensing resource is information indicating that the first sensing resource is what kind of resource / which resource.

[0169] If the first sensing resource is an ultra-wideband resource, the ultra-wideband resource can use all the ultra-wideband resources when performing sensing, without the need for specific resource information. For example, if the bandwidth range of the ultra-wideband resource is 3.1 GHz-10.6 GHz, the sensing operation is performed in the full bandwidth of 3.1 GHz-10.6 GHz when the ultra-wideband resource is used to perform the sensing operation. Therefore, in another possible implementation, if the first sensing resource is an ultra-wideband resource, the ultra-wideband resource can only need to receive the indication information indicating that the sensing operation is performed using the ultra-wideband resource, without the need for indicating the specific resource.

[0170] S202, performing a sensing operation using the first sensing resource.

[0171] Here, the sensing operation can include sending a sensing signal and receiving a sensing response.

[0172] In a possible implementation, the first sensing resource can include a sensing signal sending resource, and when the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource, it can mean that the sensing signal is sent using the sensing signal sending resource.

[0173] Correspondingly, when the sensing signal is sent using the sensing signal sending resource, the power spectral density of the sensing signal on the sensing signal sending resource can be lower than the second threshold value, because the sensing signal sending resource can coincide with part of the mobile communication resource.

[0174] For example, the second threshold value can be lower than the power spectral density of the mobile communication resource sending / receiving signal.

[0175] In some embodiments, when the sensing signal is sent using the sensing signal sending resource, the sensing signal can be sent using the sensing signal sending resource in the form of a modulated pulse. Or, the disclosure does not limit other modulation modes. However, it should be noted that when the sensing signal is sent based on the above sensing signal sending resource, the normal communication function cannot be affected.

[0176] For example, if the sensing signal transmission resource comprises the first type of resource, i.e., the sensing signal is transmitted on the first type of resource, the transmission power needs to satisfy the limit of each country or region; if the sensing signal transmission resource comprises the second type of resource, i.e., the sensing signal is transmitted on the second type of resource, the communication limit needs to be satisfied to avoid / reduce the impact on the communication performance.

[0177] Here, the communication limit can be, for example, that the transmission signal power is less than the transmission signal power of the overlapping communication resource, etc.

[0178] In another possible implementation, the first sensing resource can comprise a sensing response receiving resource. When performing the sensing operation using the first sensing resource, the sensing response receiving resource can be used to receive the sensing response. Here, when the sensing response receiving resource is used to receive the sensing response, the power spectral density of the sensing response on the sensing response receiving resource is lower than a third threshold.

[0179] Here, the third threshold can be lower than the power spectral density of the transmission / reception signal of the mobile communication resource. In some embodiments, the third threshold can be equal to the second threshold.

[0180] In another possible implementation, the first sensing resource can comprise both the sensing signal transmission resource and the sensing response receiving resource, and the sensing signal transmission resource and the sensing response receiving resource can be different resources. When performing the sensing operation using the first sensing resource, the sensing signal can be transmitted based on the sensing signal transmission resource, and the sensing response can be received based on the sensing response receiving resource.

[0181] Alternatively, the first sensing resource can only comprise the sensing signal transmission resource, and the first device can determine the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal transmission resource after receiving the sensing signal transmission resource. When performing the sensing operation, in addition to transmitting the signal based on the sensing signal transmission resource, the sensing response can also be received based on the determined sensing response receiving resource.

[0182] It should be noted that if the sensing operation is performed based on the second type of resource, the sensing operation can be performed by using resource multiplexing, which includes but is not limited to time division multiplexing, frequency division multiplexing, space division multiplexing, code division multiplexing, etc.

[0183] In some embodiments, if the first sensing resource is acquired in the manner of the first configuration information, after the first configuration information is acquired, the first configuration information can be used to implicitly indicate that the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource. Alternatively, in another possible manner, second configuration information of the first sensing resource can also be acquired, the second configuration information is used to indicate whether the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource, and the sensing operation is performed based on the first sensing resource again in the case that the second configuration information indicates that the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource.

[0184] Here, it should be noted that the manner indicated based on the second configuration information belongs to explicit indication. The reason for indicating based on this manner is that, after the first sensing resource is acquired, the use of the first sensing resource can affect the communication function, so the first sensing resource can not be available, or part of the first sensing resource needs to be used in a specific case, so explicit configuration information is needed to indicate the use.

[0185] In another possible implementation, the second sensing resource can also be acquired, wherein the second sensing resource belongs to a mobile communication resource, and the sensing operation can be performed using the second sensing resource in the case that any of the following conditions is met:

[0186] The first sensing resource is not acquired;

[0187] The indication information indicating that the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource is not acquired.

[0188] Here, the second sensing resource belonging to a mobile communication resource can be understood as that the second sensing resource itself is part of a mobile communication resource, and this part of the mobile communication resource can be used for sensing and communication by multiplexing. The multiplexing manner includes but is not limited to time division multiplexing, frequency division multiplexing, space division multiplexing, and code division multiplexing, etc. For example, in the time division multiplexing manner, a certain frequency resource is used for communication at some time and is used for sensing at another time; in the frequency division multiplexing manner, some frequencies are used for communication at the same time and other frequencies are used for sensing.

[0189] The first sensing resource is not acquired can mean that the configuration information of the first sensing resource is not acquired. The indication information indicating that the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource is not acquired can mean that the second configuration information of the first sensing resource is not acquired, or the second configuration information indicates that the sensing operation is not performed using the first sensing resource. If the second configuration information is not acquired or the second configuration information indicates that the sensing operation is not performed using the first sensing resource, even if the first sensing resource is acquired, the sensing operation can still be performed using the second sensing resource.

[0190] In some embodiments, in the case where any of the above conditions is met, if the fifth configuration information of the second sensing resource is received, the sensing operation can be performed based on the second sensing resource; wherein the fifth configuration information is used to indicate that the sensing operation is performed using the second sensing resource. In this way, it can be explicitly indicated that the sensing operation is performed using the second sensing resource.

[0191] In another possible implementation, if the first device is configured with both the first sensing resource and the second sensing resource, the corresponding sensing resource can be selected to perform the sensing operation according to the specific service type.

[0192] Specifically, the sensing accuracy of the first sensing resource is higher, but the sensing distance is shorter, and the sensing distance of the second sensing resource is longer, but the sensing accuracy is lower. Therefore, by combining the characteristics of the two types of sensing resources and the requirements of the service type, the corresponding sensing resource can be dynamically selected to perform the sensing operation. Of course, if the first device is configured with both the first sensing resource and the second sensing resource, the corresponding sensing resource can also be selected based on other ways, such as according to the load degree of the sensing resource, and the present disclosure does not make any limitation.

[0193] Referring to the sensing form provided in FIG. 1, the complete sensing process requires a sensing sending device and a sensing receiving device, and the present disclosure provides a configuration manner of the sensing resource under each sensing form, which will be described in detail below.

[0194] Mode 1, network device self-sending and self-receiving.

[0195] In this case, the first device can refer to a network device, and the sensing operation performed by the first device can include sending a sensing signal and receiving a sensing response. Specifically, the first device can send a sensing signal, and the sensing signal is reflected by the measured object and then received by the first device to receive a sensing response.

[0196] In this mode, since the sensing sending device and the sensing receiving device are both the first device, the first device does not need to negotiate the sensing signal sending resource and the sensing response receiving resource with other devices. The first sensing resource obtained by the first device can refer to the sensing signal sending resource, and the first device itself determines the sensing signal receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource; or the first sensing resource obtained by the first device can include both the sensing signal sending resource and the sensing signal receiving resource; or the first sensing resource obtained by the first device can be determined by the first device, or preconfigured, or can be obtained from other network devices.

[0197] Mode 2, network device A sends and network device B receives.

[0198] In this mode, the sensing sending device and the sensing receiving device are different network devices. Specifically, after network device A sends the sensing signal, the sensing signal is reflected by the measured object, and then network device B receives the sensing response.

[0199] Since the sensing sending device and the sensing receiving device are different network devices, the sensing sending device and the sensing receiving device need to negotiate the sensing signal sending resource and the sensing response receiving resource. The sensing signal sending resource obtained by network device A can be determined by network device A, or pre-configured, or obtained from other network devices.

[0200] When network device B obtains the sensing signal receiving resource, it can be obtained in any one of the following two ways:

[0201] Receiving the sensing signal receiving resource sent by network device A to network device B;

[0202] Receiving the sensing signal sending resource sent by network device A to network device B, and then network device B determines the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource.

[0203] In a specific implementation, when the sensing response receiving resource is determined based on the sensing signal sending resource, it can be determined based on a pre-set resource determination rule. For example, if the sensing signal sending resource includes a sensing signal sending time, based on the resource determination rule, the corresponding sensing response receiving time can be determined.

[0204] Here, determining the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource can also be understood as determining the information of the sensing response receiving resource based on the information of the sensing signal sending resource.

[0205] The first device in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be network device A in this mode, or network device B in this mode.

[0206] Mode 3, UE sends, and network device receives.

[0207] In this case, the UE can receive the sensing signal sending resource from the network device, and then the UE sends the sensing signal through the sensing signal sending resource.

[0208] For the network device receiving the sensing response, if the UE is receiving the sensing signal sending resource from the network device, the network device itself can obtain the sensing signal sending resource of the UE, and then the sensing signal receiving resource can be directly determined based on the sensing signal sending resource.

[0209] Or the UE can determine the sensing signal sending resource directly based on preset rules, in which case the UE can send the sensing signal sending resource to the network device, which then determines the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource; or the UE first determines the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource, and then directly sends the sensing response receiving resource to the network device.

[0210] The first device in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be a UE in this mode, or a network device in this mode.

[0211] Mode 4, network device sends, UE receives.

[0212] The network device can obtain the sensing signal sending resource based on any of the above modes; the UE can directly receive the sensing signal sending resource sent by the network device, and then determine the sensing signal receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource; or the network device can directly determine the sensing signal receiving resource, and then send it to the UE.

[0213] The first device in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be a UE in this mode, or a network device in this mode.

[0214] Mode 5, UE sends and receives by itself.

[0215] In this mode, since the sensing sending device and the sensing receiving device are the same UE, the sensing signal sending resource and the sensing response receiving resource do not need to be negotiated in this device.

[0216] The first device in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be a UE (i.e., a terminal device) in this mode. In the case where the first device is a terminal device, the first sensing resource can include a sensing signal sending resource, and / or a sensing signal receiving resource.

[0217] Before obtaining the first sensing resource, third indication information can also be received, wherein the third indication information is used to indicate the first sensing resource obtaining mode, and then when the first sensing resource is obtained, the first sensing resource can be obtained according to the resource obtaining mode indicated by the third indication information.

[0218] Specifically, the obtaining mode of the first sensing resource can include at least one of the following:

[0219] Obtained from a network device, autonomously determined by the first device, obtained from a resource pool configured by the network device.

[0220] Here, the obtaining from the network device can mean that the network device obtains the first device directly from the network device after determining the first sensing resource; the obtaining from the resource pool configured by the network device can mean that the first device obtains a plurality of sensing resources in the resource pool in advance, and then the first device determines a sensing resource from the resource pool as the first sensing resource.

[0221] Mode 6, UE A sends, and UE B receives.

[0222] Since two terminal devices are involved in this mode, the following cases can be divided:

[0223] Case 1,

[0224] UE A determines the sensing signal sending resource first, and then UE A sends the determined sensing signal sending resource to UE B, and UE B determines the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource; or UE A determines the sensing response receiving resource, and then sends the sensing response receiving resource to UE B.

[0225] In some embodiments, when determining the sensing signal sending resource, UE A can receive the third indication information described above, and then obtain the sensing signal sending resource according to the resource acquisition mode indicated by the third indication information. For specific description, refer to the above mode 5.

[0226] In some embodiments, if the sensing resource management is distributed, UE A can also determine the sensing signal sending resource by means of preemption or reservation.

[0227] Case 2,

[0228] UE A receives the sensing signal sending resource from the network, and then UE A sends the determined sensing signal sending resource to UE B, and UE B determines the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource; or UE A determines the sensing response receiving resource, and then sends the sensing response receiving resource to UE B.

[0229] Case 3,

[0230] UE A can directly receive the sensing signal sending resource from the network device, and UE B can also directly receive the sensing response receiving resource from the network device.

[0231] In summary, in the case where the first device is the sensing sender, the first sensing resource includes the sensing signal sending resource, and when the first device obtains the first sensing resource, the first device can obtain the first sensing resource determined by the first device, or receive the first sensing resource sent by the second device. Here, the second device is generally a network device. When determining the first sensing resource, the first device can determine the preconfigured first sensing resource.

[0232] In the case that the first device is a sensing receiver, the first sensing resource comprises a sensing response receiving resource, and the first device can receive a sensing signal sending resource when obtaining the first sensing resource, and then determine the sensing response receiving resource based on the sensing signal sending resource. Alternatively, the first device directly receives the sensing response receiving resource.

[0233] When the sensing receiver and the sensing sender are different devices, the first device can be a sensing receiver, and the second device can be a sensing sender; or the first device can be a sensing sender, and the second device can be a sensing receiver.

[0234] Specifically, the first device can be a network device, and the second device can be a terminal device; or the first device can be a terminal device, and the second device can be a network device; or the first device and the second device are different network devices; or the first device and the second device are different terminal devices.

[0235] Since some terminal devices can not support performing sensing operations using the first sensing resource, in the case that the first device is a terminal device, the first device can further send capability information, which is used to indicate that the terminal device (i.e., the first device) supports performing sensing operations using the first sensing resource.

[0236] Here, the capability information can be sent to a device that configures the first sensing resource for the first device. For example, if the first sensing resource of the first device is configured by a base station, the capability information can be sent to the base station.

[0237] In some embodiments, in the case that the first device is a terminal device, the first sensing resource can be received based on broadcast signaling or dedicated signaling when obtaining the first sensing resource.

[0238] In the case that the first device is a network device, the problem of cell reselection or cell switching can be involved, and therefore, the capabilities of whether the network devices support performing sensing operations using the first sensing resource can be exchanged in advance.

[0239] Specifically, the first device can send first indication information to other network devices and / or terminal devices, and the first indication information is used to indicate that the network device (here, the first device) supports performing sensing operations using the first sensing resource. Correspondingly, the first device can also receive fourth indication information sent by other network devices / terminal devices to determine whether the other network devices and / or terminal devices support performing sensing operations using the first sensing resource. In this way, when cell switching or cell reselection is needed, the selection of network devices can be directly based on the first indication information / fourth indication information.

[0240] In some embodiments, in the case that the first device is a terminal device, when a cell is switched, a switch needs to be involved which involves the sensing resource, thus, when the cell is switched, the first device can send a cell switch command; wherein the cell switch command carries second indication information, the second indication information is used to indicate that the terminal device supports performing sensing operation using the first sensing resource, and / or, to indicate that the terminal device is allocated the first sensing resource; and / or, to receive a switch completion command, wherein the switch completion command carries the first sensing resource which is re-allocated to the terminal device.

[0241] Here, when the first device sends the cell switch command, the first device can send the cell switch command to a network device of a neighboring cell, or can send the cell switch command to a network device which supports performing sensing operation using the first sensing resource as indicated in the received fourth indication information.

[0242] After the first device receives the switch completion command, the first device can interact with the network device after the switch to complete the sensing operation.

[0243] In some embodiments, in order to avoid the mutual influence of sensing operation between different cells, the first sensing resource and a third sensing resource can be different, the third sensing resource being a sensing resource used by a neighboring cell. Here, the first sensing resource and the third sensing resource being different exemplarily can mean that the first sensing resource and the third sensing resource are resources of different frequency bands. In actual application, the neighboring cells can negotiate to use the sensing resource.

[0244] In a possible implementation, in the case that the first device is a terminal device, before performing sensing operation based on the first sensing resource, the terminal device can be configured with a communication mode. For example, third configuration information of the first sensing resource can be obtained, the third configuration information being used to indicate a communication mode corresponding to the first sensing resource, the communication mode being a short-range communication mode or a long-range communication mode.

[0245] The short-range communication mode has a short communication distance, for example, an Ultra Wide Band (UWB) communication mode; the long-range communication mode has a long communication distance, for example, used in a mobile communication network.

[0246] For the terminal device which supports performing sensing operation using the first sensing resource, after the corresponding communication mode is configured, the corresponding settings need to be adjusted, for example, a corresponding channel model is configured, or a corresponding data link layer is set.

[0247] Alternatively, in another possible implementation, the communication mode of the terminal device can be determined based on an application scenario. For example, if the application scenario is a massive access scenario, the communication mode of the terminal device should be a long-range communication mode.

[0248] The sensing signal transmitted by the first device needs to be a sensing signal corresponding to an operator. For example, if the first device applies a network of a first mobile communication operator, the first device needs to transmit a sensing signal of the first mobile communication operator, and if the first device applies a network of a second mobile communication operator, the first device needs to transmit a sensing signal of the second mobile communication operator.

[0249] Therefore, in some embodiments, fourth configuration information of the first sensing resource can also be acquired; wherein the fourth configuration information is used to indicate sensing signals and / or sensing response information of different operators.

[0250] For example, the fourth configuration information can include at least one of the following:

[0251] The spreading code, the sensing signal use time, and the sensing signal use frequency.

[0252] Through different fourth configuration information, the sensing signals and / or sensing responses of different operators can be distinguished, and the influence of the sensing operation between different operators of mobile networks can be avoided.

[0253] The sensing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can acquire the first sensing resource and perform the sensing operation using the first sensing resource. Since the bandwidth of the first sensing resource is greater than the first threshold, the sensing operation is performed using the first sensing resource with a wider bandwidth, which can avoid occupying the communication resource and reduce the influence of the sensing function on the communication function.

[0254] Referring to FIG. 3, it is a flowchart of another sensing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is applied to a third device. The third device is a device different from the first device. Optionally, the third device and the second device can be the same device, or the third device is another network device.

[0255] It should be noted that the method shown in FIG. 3 is only for the case that the first sensing resource of the sensing device is transmitted by the third device. In actual application, the first sensing resource of the sensing device does not necessarily need to be received from other devices.
