[0156] Cellular sensing is sensing based on cellular networks, such as those based on Long Time Evolution (LTE), New Radio (NR), or sixth-generation mobile communication (6G). th Generation 6G). This cellular network sensing technology includes any one or more of the following: base station sensing and terminal sensing. Through the transmission, reception, and processing of wireless signals, the following sensing-related results or information can be obtained, such as:

[0157] Coordinate information, such as the coordinates of the receiving end, can be calculated based on distance, horizontal angle, and vertical angle, for example.

[0158] Speed ​​information, such as the receiving end's moving speed and direction of movement;

[0159] Behavioral pattern information, such as motion information like running, walking, approaching, falling, and swinging;

[0160] Weather information, such as rain, snow, etc.;

[0161] Traffic information, such as whether there is traffic congestion, traffic accidents, or congested or accident-prone road sections.

[0162] The following is an introduction to Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC).

[0163] A wireless signal transmitter (hereinafter referred to as the transmitter) emits radio waves, and a wireless signal receiver (hereinafter referred to as the receiver) receives the radio waves. During the transmission of radio waves, the transmission may be blocked by objects (hereinafter referred to as reflectors), resulting in wireless transmission effects such as reflection, diffraction, transmission, phase change, Doppler shift, and signal strength change. The wireless signal receiver receives the radio waves and compares the transmitted and received signals, or records the historical changes of the received signal, thereby obtaining information about the reflectors (e.g., coordinate information, velocity information, signal strength, and behavior pattern information). In a wireless network (e.g., a cellular network), the wireless signal transmitter can be at least one of the following: a base station; a wireless access point, such as a Wi-Fi (WiFi) access point (AP); or a terminal.

[0164] The receiving end of a wireless signal can be at least one of the following: a base station, a wireless access point, or a terminal.

[0165] The transmitter and receiver of the wireless signal can be from the same device or different devices. For example, depending on whether the transmitter and receiver are the same or different devices, the sensing model can include one or more of the following:

[0166] When the wireless signal transmitter and receiver share the same site, this sensing method can be called mono-static sensing. When the wireless signal transmitter and receiver do not share the same site, this sensing method can be called bi-static sensing.

[0167] In some embodiments, the Location Management Function (LMF) can determine the positioning accuracy (e.g., the uncertainty in the calculated location). The LMF can initiate a new positioning process and modify parameters to adjust the positioning accuracy. Based on the terminal's positioning, the LMF obtains the positioning results (from the terminal's report), and the LMF can also evaluate the positioning accuracy.

[0168] In the on-demand PRS process of New Radio (NR), the terminal can request PRS transmission, and can also request to change the configuration and transmit a Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) based on multiple configurations. Of course, in the specific implementation, it can be agreed which parameters can be changed and which cannot. It can be agreed that only certain parameters can be changed. Additionally, the terminal can also request to activate the PRS.

[0169] During wireless sensing, channel conditions may change due to mobility, potentially leading to inaccurate measurements. To improve measurement accuracy, the receiver can request the transmitter to adjust the parameters and configuration of the measurement transmission.

[0170] This disclosure provides a method for controlling the use of AI functions, which can be executed by the communication system shown in FIG1. ​​As shown in FIG2A, the method may include:

[0171] S2101: The first device sends the first request message.

[0172] In some embodiments, the first device may be a terminal or a network device. For example, the network device may include an access network device or a core network device.

[0173] In some embodiments, the first device is a receiver of the sensing signal. Exemplarily, the receiver may also be referred to as a measuring end.

[0174] In some embodiments, the first request message is used to request an update to the perception configuration. Exemplarily, the first request message is used to request an update to one or more perception parameters in the perception configuration. Also exemplaryly, the first request message can be used to request a change to the perception configuration.

[0175] In some embodiments, the first request message is used to request an update to the transmission power of the sensing signal. For example, the first request message can be used to request an increase in the transmission power of the sensing signal, or it can be used to request a decrease in the transmission power of the sensing signal.

[0176] In some embodiments, the first request message is used to request an update to the transmission density of the sensed signal.

[0177] In some embodiments, the perception configuration is used to perform perception tasks.

[0178] In some embodiments, the sensing task may be a task that performs wireless sensing.

[0179] In some embodiments, different emission densities correspond to different emission periods of the sensed signal.

[0180] In some embodiments, the perception configuration may include one or more perception parameters, which may also be referred to as perception configuration. In some embodiments, the perception configuration may be one or more sets, and different sets of perception configurations may be sent to one or more nodes participating in perception in a perception task establishment process.

[0181] In some embodiments, the sensing configuration includes, but is not limited to, any one or any combination of the following (1a) to (1f):

[0182] (1a) Area information, used to indicate the sensing area;

[0183] Role information indicates the roles of each device participating in the sensing process. For example, the roles involved in sensing include, but are not limited to: the transmitter of the sensing signal, the receiver of the sensing signal, and the processor of the sensing results. For example, the receiver of the sensing signal can also be referred to as the measurement end of the sensing signal.

[0184] (1b) Target information, used to indicate the measurement target, such as the vehicle being tracked, pedestrian, road obstacle detection, etc.; in practice, the measurement target is not limited to the examples mentioned above.

[0185] (1c) Transmission configuration of sensing signals, exemplarily, the transmission configuration may include one or more of resource information, transmission frequency information, transmission power and / or signal type information that can be used to indicate the transmission of sensing signals;

[0186] (1d) Measurement configuration of the sensing signal, exemplarily, the measurement configuration may include: resource information, frequency information, etc., indicating the measurement of the sensing signal;

[0187] (1e) Reporting configuration of the sensing signal, exemplarily, the reporting configuration may instruct the receiving end to periodically report measurement data to the processing end of the sensing results, or the receiving end to periodically report intermediate processing results of the measurement data to the processing end; further exemplarily, the reporting configuration may also configure reporting events. Thus, when the receiving end detects that a reporting event has been triggered, it sends the measurement data and / or the intermediate results obtained after processing the measurement data to the processing end. Exemplarily, the measurement data may include one or more measurement values. These measurement values ​​may include, but are not limited to, information such as the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) of the sensing signal.

[0188] (1f) Processing configuration of the sensing signal, exemplarily, the processing configuration can be used by the processing end to perform predetermined processing based on the measurement data and / or intermediate results of the measurement data to generate the sensing result;

[0189] The configuration update, exemplarily, can be used by the receiving end to request an update to the awareness configuration. Exemplarily, the configuration update can be configured with a first condition, which is a condition used by the receiving end to determine whether an update to the awareness configuration is needed.

[0190] In some embodiments, the first condition includes any one or more of the following (2a) to (2d):

[0191] (2a): The first measured value is less than or equal to the first threshold. The first measured value is the measured value obtained by the receiving end of the sensing signal from the sensing signal.

[0192] (2b): The first measurement value is greater than the second threshold.

[0193] (2c): The first rate is greater than or equal to the third threshold, where the first rate is the moving rate of the receiving end of the sensing signal;

[0194] (2d): The first velocity is less than the fourth threshold.

[0195] For example, the first measurement may include, but is not limited to, RSRP.

[0196] In some embodiments, the first measurement may also be the Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ).

[0197] In some embodiments, both the first threshold and the second threshold can be measurement thresholds corresponding to the measured value. The first threshold can be an adjusted lower threshold. The second threshold can be an adjusted upper threshold. Exemplarily, the first threshold can be smaller than the second threshold.

[0198] For example, if the first measurement value of the receiving end is not greater than a first threshold and / or the first measurement value is greater than a second threshold, it is determined that the first condition is met.

[0199] For example, if the first measurement value of the receiving end is not greater than either the first threshold or the second threshold, then the first condition can be considered to be satisfied.

[0200] For example, if the first measurement value at the receiving end is not greater than the first threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied.

[0201] For example, if the first measurement value at the receiving end is greater than the second threshold, then the first condition can be considered to be met.

[0202] In some embodiments, both the third and fourth thresholds can be rate thresholds. The third threshold can be an upper threshold corresponding to the movement rate. The fourth threshold can be a lower threshold corresponding to the movement rate. In some embodiments, the third threshold is greater than the fourth threshold.

[0203] For example, if the first rate of the receiving end is not greater than the third threshold and / or the first rate of the receiving end is less than the fourth threshold, it is determined that the first condition is met.

[0204] For example, if the first rate of the receiving end is not greater than the third threshold or less than the fourth threshold, then the first condition can be considered to be satisfied.

[0205] For example, if the first rate of the receiving end needs to be no greater than the third threshold and less than the fourth threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied.

[0206] For example, if the first rate of the receiving end is not greater than the third threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied.

[0207] For example, if the first rate of the receiving end is less than the fourth threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied. In some embodiments, one or more of the first, second, third, and fourth thresholds can be indicated by a sensing configuration. In other embodiments, one or more of the first, second, third, and fourth thresholds can be defined by a protocol.

[0208] In some embodiments, the first condition is not limited to the examples above. For example, the first condition also includes (2e) to (2f), but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0209] (2e): The second rate is greater than or equal to the fifth threshold;

[0210] (2f): The second rate is less than the sixth threshold.

[0211] The second rate can be the relative rate between the receiving end and the transmitting end of the sensing signal. The fifth threshold can be equal to or different from the third threshold. The sixth threshold can be equal to or different from the fourth threshold. For example, if both the transmitting end and the receiving end of the sensing signal are terminals, the first condition can be determined based on the second rate.

[0212] For example, if the second rate of the receiving end is not greater than the fifth threshold and / or the moving rate of the receiving end is less than the sixth threshold, it is determined that the first condition is met.

[0213] For example, if the second rate of the receiving end is not greater than the fifth threshold or less than the sixth threshold, then the first condition can be considered to be satisfied.

[0214] For example, if the second rate of the receiving end needs to satisfy a condition that is no greater than the fifth threshold and less than the sixth threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied.

[0215] For example, if the second rate at the receiving end is not greater than the fifth threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied.

[0216] For example, if the second rate at the receiving end is less than the sixth threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied.

[0217] Optionally, any of the above items can be combined together as the first condition, and any number of them can be arranged and combined to form the first condition through "and" or "or".

[0218] For example, as long as either the first measurement value at the receiving end is not greater than the first threshold or the second rate at the receiving end is not greater than the fifth threshold, the first condition can be considered satisfied; (this is an "OR" combination).

[0219] For example, if the first measurement value at the receiving end is not greater than the first threshold and the second rate at the receiving end is not greater than the fifth threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied; (this is a combination of "and").

[0220] For example, if either the first measurement value at the receiving end is greater than the second threshold or the first rate at the receiving end is not greater than the third threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied; (this is an "OR" combination).

[0221] For example, if the first measurement value at the receiving end is greater than the second threshold and the first rate at the receiving end is not greater than the third threshold, then the first condition can be considered satisfied; (this is a combination of "and").

[0222] Other combinations of first conditions can be similar to the examples above, and will not be elaborated here.

[0223] In summary, in the embodiments of this disclosure, the first condition may be a condition related to the measurement of the sensed signal. Exemplarily, the first condition may be a condition related to the measurement accuracy and / or the necessity of the sensed signal.

[0224] In some embodiments, the first device sends the first message directly to the second device. In some embodiments, the first device sends the first message to an intermediate device. The intermediate device is located on the transmission path between the first device and the second device. Exemplarily, the intermediate device may be a core network device and / or an access network device.

[0225] For example, the core network device is a Sensing Function Control (SF-C). If the first device is a terminal, it may include, but is not limited to, vehicle-mounted terminals, ordinary handheld terminals, or roadside units.

[0226] In some embodiments, if a first condition is met, the second device sends a first request message. That is, if it is determined that the first condition is met, the first device sends a first request message.

[0227] In some embodiments, the first device, acting as a receiver of sensing signals, sends a first request message if it determines that a first condition is met. If the first condition is not met, the first device may not send the first request message.

[0228] In some embodiments, the first request message includes any one or more of the following (3a) to (3g):

[0229] (3a): First identifier, identifier of perception task;

[0230] (3b): Second identifier, identifying the perceptual measurement of the perceptual task;

[0231] (3c): The first parameter includes the sensing parameters expected by the receiver; the receiver is the receiving device that receives the sensing signal associated with the sensing device.

[0232] (3d): First information, indicating the sensing performance requirements of the receiving end;

[0233] (3e): Second information, indicating the expected trend of parameter changes at the receiving end;

[0234] (3f): Third identifier, identifying the first device;

[0235] (3g): Fourth identifier, identifying the second device.

[0236] For example, a sensing task may have a unique identifier, and the first identifier may directly identify the sensing task. This first identifier may be assigned by the core network device. For example, the sensing task may be assigned by SF-C.

[0237] For example, the second identifier indicates the sensing measurement of the sensing task. For instance, a sensing task may have multiple receivers participating in sensing signal measurement (reception). These receivers may correspond to different sensing measurements. In this case, different sensing measurements of a sensing task can be distinguished by different second identifiers. Alternatively, a sensing task may have only one sensing measurement. The first identifier of the sensing task may be longer, while the second identifier may be shorter because sensing tasks at different times may also need to be distinguished by the first identifier. However, sensing measurements at a single time point only need to be distinguishable. By setting the second identifier, the currently executing sensing task can be identified based on the second identifier, reducing the signaling overhead required for interaction during wireless sensing. Of course, the above is merely an example of the first and second identifiers, and the specific implementation is not limited to this example.

[0238] The first parameter can be the transmission parameters of the sensing signal suggested by the receiver. For example, the first parameter may include one or more parameters such as transmission power, transmission density, transmission direction, and rate of change of transmission direction suggested by the receiver.

[0239] The first information may indicate the receiver's desired sensing performance requirements; for example, the first information may indicate that the receiver at least expects to improve sensing performance. The first information may also indicate that sensing performance may be reduced. Alternatively, the first parameter may also indicate the receiver's expected sensing parameters, such as one or more of the following related parameters predicted by the receiver based on its own measurements of the sensing parameters: transmit power, transmit density, rate of change of transmit direction, receive power, etc.

[0240] In some embodiments, the second information may indicate a desired parameter change trend at the sensing signal receiver, such as one or more of the following: decreasing the received power, increasing the received power, decreasing the transmission density, and increasing the transmission density.

[0241] In some embodiments, the fourth identifier is used to identify the transmitter of the sensing signal. For example, if the transmitter is a base station, the third identifier may be a base station identifier and / or a cell identifier, etc. The cell identifier may include, but is not limited to, a physical cell identifier. In some embodiments, if the transmitter of the sensing signal is a terminal, the third identifier may be various terminal identifiers. In some embodiments, if the transmitter of the sensing signal is a roadside unit, the third identifier may be a unique identifier for the roadside unit.

[0242] In some embodiments, the third identifier is used to identify the receiver of the sensing signal. For example, the receiver of the sensing signal may be a base station, a terminal, or a roadside unit.

[0243] In some embodiments, if the first measured value is less than or equal to a first threshold, the first request message can be used to request an increase in the transmission power of the sensing signal and / or an increase in the transmission density of the sensing signal to ensure the quality of the sensing results.

[0244] In some embodiments, if the first measured value is greater than the second threshold, the first request message can be used to request a reduction in the transmit power of the sensing signal and / or a reduction in the transmit density of the sensing signal, so as to save power consumption at the transmitter and unnecessary time-frequency resource overhead.

[0245] In some embodiments, the first rate is greater than or equal to the third threshold, and the first request message can be used to request an increase in the transmission power of the sensing signal and / or an increase in the transmission density of the sensing signal to ensure the quality of the sensing results.

[0246] In some embodiments, if the first rate is less than the fourth threshold, the first request message can be used to request a reduction in the transmit power of the sensing signal and / or a reduction in the transmit density of the sensing signal, so as to save power consumption at the transmitter and unnecessary time-frequency resource overhead.

[0247] In some embodiments, the second rate is greater than or equal to the fifth threshold, and the first request message can be used to request an increase in the transmission power of the sensing signal and / or an increase in the transmission density of the sensing signal to ensure the quality of the sensing results.

[0248] In some embodiments, the second rate is less than or equal to the sixth threshold, and the first request message can be used to request a reduction in the transmit power of the sensing signal and / or a reduction in the transmit density of the sensing signal, so as to save power consumption at the transmitter and unnecessary time-frequency resource overhead.

[0249] In some embodiments, when a first device sends a first request message to a second device, the second device receives the first request message. For example, the second device receives the first request message directly or indirectly.

[0250] S2102: The second device sends the first response message.

[0251] In some embodiments, the second device may be a terminal or a network device. For example, the network device may include an access network device or a core network device.

[0252] In some embodiments, the second device may be a transmitter of the sensing signal. The transmitter may also be referred to as a source.

[0253] In some embodiments, after receiving the first request message, the second device may send a first response message to the first device based on the first request message.

[0254] In some embodiments, the first response message may include various information for the first device to determine the updated sensing configuration or sensing parameters. This allows the first and second devices to flexibly adjust the sensing configuration as needed, flexibly control the wireless sensing process, ensure the quality of sensing results, and reduce unnecessary sensing overhead.

[0255] In some embodiments, if the sender of the sensing signal rejects the update of the sensing configuration, the first response message may be a rejection response.

[0256] In some embodiments, if the transmitting end of the sensing signal receives an update to the sensing configuration, the first response message may be an acceptance response.

[0257] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, updating the sensing configuration is also known as adjusting the sensing configuration. After the sensing configuration is adjusted, the sending end and the receiving end transmit and receive sensing signals according to the updated (adjusted) sensing configuration.

[0258] In some embodiments, the first response message includes any one or more of the following (4a) to (4g):

[0259] (4a): First identifier, identifying the perception task;

[0260] (4b): Second identifier, identifying the perceptual measurement of the perceptual task;

[0261] (4c): The second parameter, including the updated perception parameters;

[0262] (4d): First index, indicating the updated perception configuration;

[0263] (4e): Third identifier, identifying the first device;

[0264] (4f): Fourth identifier, identifying the second device.

[0265] (4g): The sixth identifier identifies the access network device to which the second device is connected.

[0266] In some embodiments, if the first device is a terminal, sending the first response message may include:

[0267] The second device directly sends a first response message to the first device; or...

[0268] The second device sends a first response message to the intermediate device. The intermediate device may be a core network device and / or an access network device.

[0269] In some embodiments, if the second device is a terminal, the first response message may include: a sixth identifier.

[0270] In some embodiments, the above information can be optional content of the first response message. For example, whether the transmitting end of the sensing signal determines to adjust the transmission of the sensing signal according to the receiving end can be indicated by carrying a first indication in the first response message, without needing to carry the modified parameters. For example, the first indication can be used to indicate whether the transmitting end of the sensing signal will adjust the transmission configuration of the sensing signal accordingly.

[0271] In some embodiments, there may be multiple sensing models. Different sensing models have different sending and receiving ends for sensing signals when the sensing task is executed, and therefore the first device and the second device may be different.

[0272] In some embodiments, both the first device and the second device are terminals; the intermediate device includes a first access network device, a core network device, and a second access network device; the first device and the first access network device are communicatively connected; and the second access network device is communicatively connected to the second device.

[0277] In some embodiments, the first device is a seventh access network device and the second device is a terminal, and the intermediate device includes an eighth access network device and a core network device.

[0278] In some embodiments, the first device is a fifth access network device and the second device is a terminal, and the intermediate device includes an eighth access network device.

[0279] In some embodiments, both the first device and the second device are terminals; the first device is communicatively connected to the first access network device; the second device is communicatively connected to the second access network device. In one scenario, a first request message is sent from the first device and passes through the first access network device, the core network device, and the second access network device in sequence before finally reaching the second device, and a first response message is sent from the second device and passes through the second access network device, the core network device, and the first access network device in sequence before finally reaching the first device.

[0280] In some embodiments, both the first device and the second device are terminals; the first device is communicatively connected to the first access network device; the second device is communicatively connected to the second access network device. In one scenario, a first request message is sent from the first device and passes through the first access network device and the second access network device in sequence before finally reaching the second device, and a first response message is sent from the second device and passes through the second access network device and the first access network device in sequence before finally reaching the first device.

[0281] In some embodiments, both the first device and the second device are terminals; the first device and the second device directly transmit the first request message and the first response message based on the sidelink (SL).

[0282] In some embodiments, the first device is a third access network device and the second device is a fourth access network device, and the intermediate device includes a core network device. The core network device may include, but is not limited to, SF-C. A first request message is sent from the first device and sequentially passes through the core network device to reach the second device, and a first response message is sent from the second device and passes through the core network device to reach the first device.

[0283] In some embodiments, the first device is a third access network device and the second device is a fourth access network device. The first device and the second device can directly send and receive first request messages and first response messages based on a direct connection interface between the access network devices. For example, the direct connection interface may include: an air interface such as Xn and / or a tunnel, etc.

[0284] In some embodiments, the first device is a terminal and the second device is a fifth access network device, and the intermediate device includes a core network device and a sixth access network device; the sixth access network device is communicatively connected to the terminal. A first request message is sent from the first device and passes through the core network device and the sixth access network device sequentially to reach the second device, and a first response message is sent from the second device and passes through the sixth access network device and the core network device to reach the first device.

[0285] In some embodiments, the first device is a terminal and the second device is a fifth access network device, and the intermediate device includes a sixth access network device; the sixth access network device is communicatively connected to the terminal. A first request message is sent from the first device, passes through the sixth access network device to reach the second device, and a first response message is sent from the second device, passes through the sixth access network device to reach the first device.

A first request message is sent from the first device and reaches the second device through the eighth access network device, and a first response message is sent from the second device and reaches the first device through the eighth access network device.

[0288] It is worth noting that during the negotiation of sensing configuration updates, when the core network equipment (e.g., SF-C) is involved, the core network equipment can adjust one or more pieces of information carried in the first request to control the updating of the sensing configuration. Alternatively, after receiving the updated sensing configuration from the receiving end, the core network equipment can adjust the received sensing configuration or not. If the core network equipment adjusts the updated sensing configuration from the sending end, the receiving end receives the adjusted sensing configuration from the core network equipment. Alternatively, after receiving the updated sensing configuration from the sending end, the core network equipment can negotiate with the sending end again to finally determine the updated sensing configuration to be provided to the receiving end.

Exemplarily, this corresponds to the SF-C negotiating the update of the sensing configuration between the transmitting and receiving ends of the sensing signal. In this case, the SF-C may transparently transmit or forward the first request message and / or the first response message. In some cases, a transmission path via SF-C is used for sensing configuration update negotiation, and the SF-C may also participate in the sensing configuration update negotiation if necessary.

A description of the alternative devices, capability information, and / or the core network device can be found in the embodiment shown in Figure 3A, and will not be repeated here.

[0387] To improve perceived quality, this disclosure provides the following method, as detailed below:

[0388] Option 1:

[0389] In sensing tasks, changes in channel conditions due to mobility can lead to inaccurate measurements at the transmitter and receiver. To improve measurement accuracy, the receiver can request the transmitter to adjust the transmission parameters and configuration. This request can be made in one or a combination of the following ways:

[0390] Method a: The sending end provides the expected set of configuration parameters for the perception task and the value of each parameter;

[0391] Method b: The sending end provides perceived performance requirements, such as performance improvement or performance reduction indicators. The specific performance requirements depend on how the sending end adjusts the parameters.

[0392] Method c: The sending end provides the expected set of configuration parameters for the sensing task and the changing trend of each parameter, such as whether it is increasing or decreasing.

[0393] For example, the receiver can request the transmitter to increase its transmission power, increase the density of the transmitted signal, or add more nodes to the signal transmission, etc. In other words, the transmitter and receiver can dynamically negotiate the power, density, etc. of the transmitted signal.

[0394] The receiver determines whether to initiate a parameter configuration change / negotiation based on one or more of the following conditions: comparing the measured RSRP with a threshold; if the RSRP is below the threshold, or if the receiver monitors its own movement speed and compares it with a threshold; if the RSRP is above the threshold, then a high-power, high-density parameter configuration is requested. Conversely, if the receiver's measured RSRP is above a certain threshold, or the receiver's movement speed is below a certain threshold, the transmitter can also request a reduction in transmit power or request the use of a low-density signal configuration for measurement. This saves energy for both the transmitter and receiver.

[0395] Adjusting the transmitted signal density allows for multiple configurations between the transmitter and receiver, with the option to activate the desired configuration as needed; this facilitates energy saving and improves spectrum efficiency.

[0396] Option 1: As shown in Figure 4A, the receiving and transmitting ends of the sensing signal negotiate and update the sensing configuration through intermediate nodes such as core network equipment and access network equipment.

[0397] Option 2: As shown in Figure 4B, the receiver and transmitter of the sensing signal directly negotiate the update of the sensing configuration without going through an intermediate device. For example, the intermediate device may include, but is not limited to, core network devices and / or access network devices. For instance, it may directly result in direct channel negotiation between access network devices, or the sensing configuration update negotiation may be based on a direct channel between the receiver and transmitter of the sensing signal (e.g., a sidelink (SL) between terminals).

[0398] The following discussion will cover the negotiation of sensing configuration updates based on the sensing model used by wireless sensing, with different scenarios for each case.

[0399] In some embodiments, wireless sensing is performed in a mode in which terminal A sends a sensing signal and terminal B receives the sensing signal. In this case, the negotiation of the sensing configuration update can be carried out in two ways, as shown in Figure 5A and Figure 5B.

[0400] In the mode where terminal A sends a sensing signal and terminal B receives the sensing signal, referring to Figure 5A, mode 1 can be:

[0401] (1): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the receiving terminal;

[0402] (2): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the transmitting terminal.

[0403] In the two steps above, SF-C configures two terminals: one as a transmitting terminal and the other as a receiving terminal.

[0404] (3): The receiving terminal sends a sensing configuration update request. Specifically, if the receiving terminal detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it initiates a sensing parameter change request to the SF-C, carrying the expected target sensing parameters, values, and / or the expected trend of sensing parameter changes, etc. Optionally, it may further carry the sensing task identifier and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the SF-C to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is. Optionally, it may further carry the sending terminal identifier. (4): The SF-C initiates a sensing parameter change request to the sending terminal. Here, the SF-C may determine the last modified sensing parameter configuration, or the SF-C and the sending terminal may negotiate the change of sensing parameters.

[0405] (5): The sending terminal initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameter update to SF-C, which may include the last updated sensing parameters and configuration.

[0406] (6): SF-C initiates a confirmation of the updated sensing parameters to the receiving terminal, which may include the last updated sensing parameters and configuration.

[0407] In the mode where terminal A sends a sensing signal and terminal B receives the sensing signal, referring to Figure 5B, mode 2 can be:

[0408] (1): Establishment of the perception link;

[0409] (2): Identifiers of the sending gNB and the receiving gNB.

[0410] In the two steps described above, SF-C configures two terminals: one as a transmitting terminal and the other as a receiving terminal. When SF-C initiates the establishment of a sensing task, the configuration of a sensing task, or the establishment of a sensing link to the receiving terminal, it exchanges the identifiers of the receiving gNB and the receiving gNB. The receiving gNB is the gNB connected to the receiving terminal. The transmitting gNB is the gNB connected to the transmitting terminal.

[0411] (3): When the receiving terminal detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it sends an uplink RRC signaling message to the serving base station. The RRC signaling message is used to request a change in the sensing parameters and carries the base station ID where the sending terminal is located. In some embodiments, the RRC signaling message may also carry the expected target sensing parameters, the value of the target sensing parameters, and / or the trend of the expected changes in the sensing parameters, etc.

[0412] Optionally, in some embodiments, the RRC signaling further carries identification information such as a sensing task identifier and / or an identifier measurement. Note that the identification information of the measurement here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the sending terminal to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested.

[0413] Optionally, the RRC signaling may also include the terminal identifier of the sending end.

[0414] (4): gNB2 then directly initiates a sensing parameter change request to the sending terminal base station based on the serving base station ID of the sending terminal. The content of this update request can be consistent with the update request sent by the receiving terminal. For example, the sensing parameter change request can carry the expected target sensing parameter, and / or value, and / or the expected trend of the sensing parameter change, etc. Optionally, it can further carry the sensing task identifier, and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the sending terminal to identify which specific measurement configuration the sensing parameter to be updated is. Optionally, there is also a sending terminal identifier. For example, the sensing parameter change request can be one of the aforementioned first request messages.

[0415] (5): After receiving the request, the transmitting terminal base station (gNB1) sends a sensing parameter change request to the transmitting terminal, carrying the expected target sensing parameter, the value of the target sensing parameter, and / or the trend of the expected sensing parameter change. Optionally, the sensing parameter change request may further carry a sensing task identifier and / or identifier information of the identification measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the transmitting terminal to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated. Here, the transmitting terminal may determine the modified sensing parameter configuration, or the receiving base station / terminal and the transmitting base station / terminal may negotiate the change of sensing parameters.

[0416] (6): The transmitting terminal initiates a sensing parameter change confirmation to the transmitting terminal base station. Optionally, the sensing parameter change confirmation may include the last updated sensing parameters. For example, the sensing parameter change confirmation may be one of the aforementioned first response messages.

[0417] (7): The transmitting terminal base station initiates a confirmation of the change of sensing parameters to the receiving terminal base station (gNB2). Optionally, the confirmation of the change of sensing parameters may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0418] (8): The receiving terminal base station initiates a confirmation of the change in sensing parameters to the receiving terminal.

[0419] In some embodiments, wireless sensing is performed in a mode in which base station A sends sensing signals and base station B receives sensing signals. In this case, the negotiation of the sensing configuration update can be carried out in two ways, as shown in Figure 5C and Figure 5D.

[0420] In the mode where base station A transmits sensing signals and base station B receives sensing signals, referring to Figure 5C, mode 1 can be:

[0421] (1): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the transmitting gNB;

[0422] (2): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the receiving gNB.

[0423] In the two steps above, SF-C is configured with two base stations: one is a transmitting base station, and the other is a receiving base station.

[0424] (3): When the receiving base station (gNB) detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it initiates a sensing parameter change request to the SF-C, carrying the expected target sensing parameters, and / or values, and / or the expected trend of the sensing parameter changes, etc. Optionally, it also carries the sensing task identifier, and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the SF-C to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested.

[0425] (4): The SF-C initiates a sensing parameter change request to the transmitting base station. Here, the SF-C may determine the final modified sensing parameter configuration, or the SF-C and the transmitting base station may negotiate the sensing parameter change.

[0426] (5): The transmitting base station (transmitting gNB) initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameters update to SF-C, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0427] (6): SF-C initiates a confirmation of sensing parameter update to the receiving base station, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0428] In the mode where base station A transmits sensing signals and base station B receives sensing signals, as shown in Figure 5D, mode 2 can be:

[0429] (1): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the transmitting gNB;

[0430] (2): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the receiving gNB.

[0431] In the two steps described above, SF-C configures two base stations: one as a transmitting base station and the other as a receiving base station. When SF-C initiates the sensing task establishment and / or configuration to the receiving base station, it simultaneously configures the base station ID of the transmitting base station.

[0432] (3): When the receiving base station (transmitting gNB) detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it directly initiates a sensing parameter change request to the transmitting base station based on the transmitting base station ID, carrying the expected target sensing parameters, and / or values, and / or the expected trend of sensing parameter changes, etc. Optionally, it also carries the sensing task identifier and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the transmitting base station to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested. Here, the transmitting end can determine the modified sensing parameter configuration, or the receiving base station and the transmitting base station can negotiate the change of sensing parameters. The receiving base station is the receiving end that receives the sensing signals.

[0433] (4): The transmitting base station initiates a confirmation of sensing parameter update to the receiving base station, which may include the last updated sensing parameters. The transmitting base station may be the base station that transmits the sensing signal.

[0434] In some embodiments, wireless sensing is performed in a mode in which the base station sends sensing signals and the terminal receives sensing signals. In this case, the negotiation of the sensing configuration update can be carried out in two ways, as shown in Figure 5E and Figure 5F.

[0435] In the mode where the base station transmits sensing signals and the terminal receives sensing signals, as shown in Figure 5E, mode 1 can be:

[0436] (1): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the transmitting gNB;

[0437] (2): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the receiving terminal.

[0438] In the two steps above, the SF-C configuration base station is the transmitting base station, and the terminal is the receiving end.

[0439] (3): When the receiving terminal detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it initiates a sensing parameter change request to the SF-C, carrying the expected target sensing parameter, and / or its value, and / or the expected trend of the sensing parameter change, etc. Optionally, it may further carry the sensing task identifier, and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the SF-C to identify which specific measurement configuration the sensing parameter to be updated is.

[0440] (4): The SF-C initiates a sensing parameter change request to the transmitting base station. Here, the SF-C may determine the final modified sensing parameter configuration, or the SF-C and the transmitting base station may negotiate the sensing parameter change.

[0441] (5): The transmitting base station initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameters update to SF-C, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0442] (6): SF-C initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameters update to the receiving terminal, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0443] In the mode where the base station transmits sensing signals and the terminal receives sensing signals, as shown in Figure 5F, mode 2 can be:

[0444] (1): Establishment of the perception link;

[0445] (2): Identifiers of the sending gNB and the receiving gNB.

[0446] In the two steps described above, the SF-C configures the base station as the transmitting base station and the terminal as the receiving end. When the SF-C initiates the establishment and / or configuration of the sensing task to the receiving terminal, it simultaneously configures the base station ID of the transmitting base station.

[0447] (3): When the receiving terminal detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it sends an uplink RRC signaling message to the serving base station of the receiving terminal. The RRC message is used to request a change in the sensing parameters and carries the sending base station ID. It also carries the expected target sensing parameter, and / or its value, and / or the expected trend of the sensing parameter change, etc. Optionally, it further carries the sensing task identifier and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, and is used by the sending base station to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested.

[0448] (4): When the serving base station (gNB2) of the receiving terminal detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it directly initiates a sensing parameter change request to the sending base station based on the sending base station ID, carrying the expected target sensing parameters, and / or values, and / or the expected trend of sensing parameter changes, etc. Optionally, it also carries the sensing task identifier and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the sending base station to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested. Here, the sending base station can determine the modified sensing parameter configuration, or the receiving base station / terminal and the sending base station can negotiate the change of sensing parameters.

[0449] (5): The transmitting base station (transmitting gNB1) initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameters update to the receiving terminal base station, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0450] (6): The base station of the receiving terminal initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameters update to the receiving terminal, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0451] In some embodiments, wireless sensing is performed in a mode in which the terminal sends sensing signals and the base station receives sensing signals. In this case, the negotiation of the sensing configuration update can be carried out in two ways, as shown in Figure 5G and Figure 5H.

[0452] In the mode where the terminal sends sensing signals and the base station receives sensing signals, referring to Figure 5G, mode 1 can be:

[0453] (1): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the receiving gNB1;

[0454] (2): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the transmitting terminal.

[0455] In the two steps above, the SF-C configuration base station is the receiving base station, and the terminal is the transmitting base station.

[0456] (3): When the receiving base station (receiving gNB1) detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it initiates a sensing parameter change request to the SF-C, carrying the expected target sensing parameters, and / or values, and / or the expected trend of the sensing parameter changes, etc. Optionally, it also carries a sensing task identifier, and / or identification information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the SF-C or the transmitting terminal to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested. Optionally, a transmitting terminal identifier may also be included.

[0457] (4): SF-C initiates a sensing parameter change request to the sending terminal. Here, SF-C may determine the final modified sensing parameter configuration, or SF-C and the sending terminal may negotiate the sensing parameter change.

[0458] (5): The transmitting terminal sends a confirmation of the sensing parameter update to SF-C, which may include the last updated sensing parameter.

[0459] (6): SF-C initiates a confirmation of sensing parameter update to the receiving base station, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0460] In the mode where the terminal sends sensing signals and the base station receives sensing signals, as shown in Figure 5H, mode 2 can be:

[0461] (1): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the receiving gNB1;

[0462] (2): SF-C establishes a sensing link with the transmitting terminal.

[0463] In the two steps described above, the SF-C is configured as the receiving base station, and the terminal is configured as the transmitting base station. When the SF-C initiates the establishment and / or configuration of the sensing task with the receiving base station, it simultaneously configures the base station ID of the base station where the transmitting terminal is located. During the establishment of the sensing link (or sensing task), the identifiers of the serving base station (gNB2) and the receiving gNB1 of the transmitting terminal are exchanged.

[0464] (3): When the receiving base station (receiving gNB1) detects that the sensing parameters need to be updated, it directly initiates a sensing parameter change request to the transmitting terminal base station based on the base station ID of the base station where the transmitting terminal is located, carrying the expected target sensing parameters, and / or values, and / or the expected trend of the sensing parameter changes, etc. Optionally, it also carries a sensing task identifier, and / or identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the transmitting terminal to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated is being requested. Optionally, there is also a transmitting terminal identifier.

[0465] (4): The base station where the transmitting terminal is located sends an RRC signaling message to the transmitting terminal, requesting a change to the sensing task parameters, and carrying the expected target sensing parameters, and / or values, and / or the expected trend of changes in the sensing parameters, etc. Optionally, it may also carry the sensing task identifier, and / or the identifier information of the measurement. Note that the measurement identifier information here can be unique within the SF-C, or unique within the measurement identifier related to the sensing task identifier, used by the transmitting terminal to identify which specific measurement configuration of the sensing parameter to be updated. Here, the transmitting terminal can determine the modified sensing parameter configuration, or the receiving base station and the transmitting base station / terminal can negotiate the change of sensing parameters.

[0466] (5): The sending terminal sends a perception parameter confirmation message to the serving base station, which may include the last updated perception parameters.

[0467] (6): The serving base station of the transmitting terminal initiates a confirmation of the sensing parameters update to the receiving base station, which may include the last updated sensing parameters.

[0468] It is worth noting that, regardless of the mode mentioned above, the content of the request for changes to the sensing parameters or the updated sensing parameter configuration can be transmitted in the form of a container on the air interface and wired network interface.

[0469] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5I, before the network selects a sensing node, if the terminal is a transmitter, it needs to report its power class to SF-C so that the network side can assess the sensing area range that the terminal can support. Then the network side can determine how many sensing nodes need to be deployed to cover the target sensing area. Similarly, if the base station is a sensing transmitter, it also needs to report its transmit power to SF-C. That is, candidate devices acting as transmitters of sensing signals will report their own capability information to SF-C, facilitating SF-C's selection of the sensing signal transmitter and provision of corresponding sensing configurations.

[0470] When SF-C selects network-side nodes, it can also configure the maximum transmission power of the participating sensing nodes to send sensing signals based on the maximum transmission power of the selected target node. The purpose is to avoid network-side interference and at the same time determine the sensing coverage area.

[0471] The method provided in this disclosure allows a sensing receiving node to request a sensing transmitting node to adjust sensing task parameters. This improves sensing accuracy when measurement accuracy is low, and enhances spectral efficiency and energy conservation when sensing accuracy is relatively high. In some embodiments, the transmitting end initiates triggering conditions for sensing parameter changes; the transmitting end initiates a request for sensing parameter changes; and the transmitting end initiates a sensing parameter change process.

[0472] In some embodiments, capability information includes at least one of the following:

[0473] The third piece of information is used to indicate the maximum transmission power of the alternative equipment;

[0474] The fourth piece of information is used to indicate the maximum emission density supported by the alternative equipment.

[0475] This disclosure also provides apparatus for implementing any of the above methods. For example, an apparatus is provided that includes units or modules for implementing the steps performed by the terminal in any of the above methods. Alternatively, another apparatus is provided that includes units or modules for implementing the steps performed by a network device (e.g., an access network device, or a core network device) in any of the above methods.

For example, the processor is a hardware circuit implemented using an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or a programmable logic device (PLD), such as an FPGA. In a reconfigurable hardware circuit, the process of the processor loading a configuration document and configuring the hardware circuit can be understood as the process of the processor loading instructions to implement the functions of some or all of the above units or modules. In addition, it can also be a hardware circuit designed for artificial intelligence, which can be understood as an ASIC, such as a Neural Network Processing Unit (NPU), a Tensor Processing Unit (TPU), a Deep Learning Processing Unit (DPU), etc.
