[0077] For ease of understanding, the following describes some aspects of the embodiments of this application:

[0078] I. Communication and sensing integration, also known as communication and sensing integration.

[0079] Communication and radar sensors (C&S) have been developing in parallel, but with limited overlap. They share many commonalities in signal processing algorithms, equipment, and to some extent, system architecture. In recent years, traditional radar has been evolving towards more general wireless sensing. Wireless sensing broadly refers to retrieving information from received radio signals. For wireless sensing related to target location, dynamic parameters such as target signal reflection delay, angle of arrival, departure angle, and Doppler can be estimated using common signal processing methods. For sensing target physical characteristics, this can be achieved by measuring the inherent signal patterns of devices / objects / activities. These two sensing methods can be referred to as sensing parameter estimation and pattern recognition, respectively. In this sense, wireless sensing refers to more general sensing technologies and applications that utilize radio signals.

[0080] Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) has the potential to integrate wireless sensing into mobile networks, referred to here as Perceptive Mobile Networks (PMNs). Perceptive Mobile Networks can simultaneously provide communication and wireless sensing services, and due to their wide broadband coverage and robust infrastructure, they promise to become a ubiquitous wireless sensing solution. Perceptive Mobile Networks can be widely applied to communication and sensing in transportation, communication, energy, precision agriculture, and security sectors. They can also provide complementary sensing capabilities to sensor networks in related technologies, possessing unique day / night operation capabilities and the ability to penetrate fog, foliage, and even solid objects.

[0081] In mobile communication networks, base stations (including one or more Transmission Reception Points (TRPs) on the base station) and User Equipment (UEs) (including one or more sub-arrays / panels on the UEs) can serve as sensing nodes participating in integrated sensing / communication services. Typical UEs include mobile terminals and portable tablets. By sending and receiving a first signal between nodes, sensing of a certain area or a specific target can be achieved. The first signal can be a signal that does not contain transmission information, such as relevant LTE / NR synchronization and reference signals, including synchronization signals and physical broadcast channel (PBCH block, SSB) signals, channel state information-reference signals (CSI-RS), demodulation reference signals (DMRS), sounding reference signals (SRS), positioning reference signals (PRS), phase tracking reference signals (PTRS), etc.; it can also be a single-frequency continuous wave commonly used in radar. The new signal can be a wave (CW), a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW), or an ultra-wideband Gaussian pulse, etc.; it can also be a newly designed dedicated signal with good correlation characteristics and a low peak-to-average power ratio, or a newly designed integrated sensing signal that carries certain information and has good sensing performance. For example, the new signal is formed by splicing / combining / superimposing at least one dedicated sensing signal / reference signal and at least one communication signal in the time domain and / or frequency domain.

[0082] II. Beamspace Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Radar.

[0083] MIMO radar utilizes waveform diversity and virtual array characteristics to achieve higher detection / estimation resolution, a higher maximum number of identifiable targets, and better clutter suppression capabilities compared to phased array (PA) radar.

[0084] The principle of a MIMO radar virtual array is as follows. Consider a MIMO radar with a total of M transmitting antennas and N receiving antennas. Assume that the transmitted signals from each transmitting antenna are orthogonal, so each receiving antenna can distinguish M signals. Since the phase of the response signal is determined by the positions of the transmitting and receiving antennas, NM different phase response signals can be obtained, which are completely equivalent to the response signal obtained from a single array with NM antennas. Therefore, by reasonably setting the positions of the transmitting and / or receiving arrays, an array containing NM non-overlapping virtual antennas can be constructed using only N+M physical antennas. Because virtual arrays often form larger array apertures, better angular resolution can be achieved.

[0085] Furthermore, Beamspace MIMO radar, through its precoding design, can focus transmitted energy within a given angular range, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the response signal and thus enhancing the estimation performance of the sensing. Specifically, this is achieved by designing the precoding matrix C to form K (K < M) beams for transmitting K orthogonal signals, ensuring uniform beam energy within a given angular region and minimizing energy outside that region.

[0086] The received data vector (i.e., equivalent channel vector) y of a bistatic Beamspace MIMO radar after matched filtering. beam (τ) is:

[0087] Where a(θ) and b(θ) are the steering vectors of the transmitting and receiving arrays, respectively, with dimensions of M×1 and N×1. l,1 ,θ l,2 These are the departure azimuth and arrival azimuth of the l-th path, respectively, α l The complex amplitude of the l-th radius; Let be the shaping matrix of the Beamspace MIMO radar, with dimensions M×K, where the k-th column vector is the shaping vector corresponding to the k-th beam. Here, E represents the noise vector after matched filtering, and E represents the total energy of the array's transmitted signal.

[0088] The design goal of the shaping matrix C is to form K beams for transmitting K orthogonal signals, such that the energy is uniform within a given angular region and the energy outside the given angular region is minimized. That is, to maximize:

[0089] Where A=∫ Θ a(θ)a H (t)dθ is a non-negative matrix. If the guiding vector a(θ) satisfies the Vandermonde structure, then:

[0090] Substituting into equation (2), we get

[0091] Considering constraints The above equation is equivalent to maximizing the numerator. Clearly, the optimal solution c1 that maximizes Γ1 is the eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigenvalue of matrix A. Obviously, c1 = c2 = ... = c K This is the optimal solution, but this case corresponds to using only one beam to transmit the signal. This means it degenerates into a phased array radar. Therefore, it is necessary to add constraints and ensure that c1≠c2≠...≠c K Then the optimal solution for C is the eigenvectors corresponding to the K largest eigenvalues ​​of A, that is: C=[u1,u2,...,u K (5)

[0092] in Let A be the eigenvectors corresponding to the K largest eigenvalues ​​of matrix A.

[0093] Optionally, Where Λ is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal lines are the eigenvalues ​​of A. For any θ∈Θ, the length of its projection into the column space of C is |C H a(θ)| is equal to its own length |a(θ)|. The beam power within θ∈Θ is: P(θ)=|C H a(θ)| 2 =a H (θ)R ψ a(θ) (6)

[0094] in, Let θ be the correlation matrix of the transmitted signal in the beam domain. This means the total power of the K beams is approximately uniformly distributed within θ. It should be noted that the beam power of any single signal from the K beams is not necessarily uniform within θ∈Θ.

[0095] It should be noted that the receiver has N receiving ports, each based on K orthogonal signals φ. k (t), k=1,2,...,K. Matched filtering of the received signal yields equation (1). Here, the K orthogonal signals are the pre-coded signals. In reality, the transmitted signals from each physical antenna have a certain correlation, thus determining φ. k After obtaining (t) and the precoding matrix C, the transmitted signals of each physical antenna can be determined, i.e. That is, the physical antenna transmits the signal ψ m(t), m=1,2,...,M and the precoding matrix C together constitute the transmitted signal of the Beamspace MIMO radar. According to equation (1), the received data vector length of the Beamspace MIMO radar is KN, which is smaller than the data vector length MN of the traditional MIMO radar. This means that the maximum virtual aperture that can be obtained is smaller. If K is not very small, this performance loss can be compensated by improving the SNR. In addition, according to equation (1), when the precoding matrix C is known at the receiver, the target departure angle θ is... l,1 It can be estimated by the receiving end.

[0096] III. Hybrid Digital-Analog Precoding.

[0097] Currently, the available frequency bands in mobile communication networks are decreasing, and the frequency bands being used are gradually shifting towards higher frequencies, such as the millimeter wave (mmWave) driven by 5G NR. These frequency bands have abundant available resources. However, higher frequencies mean greater transmission loss, so larger antenna arrays are usually used to form shaped beams with higher gain to overcome propagation loss and ensure system coverage. At the same time, considering factors such as hardware complexity, cost, and power consumption, the digital beamforming (DBF) method used in low-frequency bands cannot be adopted. Instead, a hybrid beamforming (HBF) method combining analog beams and digital ports is usually used, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. In the holographic beamforming (HBF) architecture, each antenna has an independent RF link channel, but multiple antennas share a single digital link channel. In contrast, with digital precoding, each antenna has an independent digital link channel. Figures 2 and 3 illustrate two common HBF architectures. Figure 2 shows a sub-connected architecture, where the array is divided into multiple sub-arrays, each connected to only one digital channel. Figure 3 shows a fully connected architecture, where each antenna is connected to all digital channels. The signals from the digital channels are superimposed on the RF link channels after passing through phase shifters. However, it should be noted that HBF architectures are not limited to these two. In HBF, the signal transmitted by each antenna is generally phase-shifted to form an analog beam, thus achieving analog beamforming. Due to device limitations, analog beamforming is generally performed across the entire bandwidth, unlike digital beamforming where each sub-band can be independently beamformed. Therefore, analog beams are multiplexed using time-division multiplexing.

[0098] Currently, NR's Channel State Information (CSI) measurement and feedback enable network-side devices to acquire communication channel information and determine communication precoding to achieve optimal communication performance. However, this process does not consider sensing performance and is unsuitable for precoding feedback in MIMO sensing integration. Furthermore, the criteria for determining optimal communication precoding differ from those for sensing, making it impossible to directly apply communication precoding to sensing integration. Channel fading reduces the sensing signal-to-noise ratio, degrading sensing performance. Sensing-communication integrated precoding allows one beam to be aligned with the communication target, while another beam is aligned with the sensing target, sensing area, or the approximate direction of the target path, ensuring both communication and sensing signal-to-noise ratios and balancing communication and sensing performance. Currently, the design of precoding codes that simultaneously consider communication and sensing, as well as the measurement feedback process, are not yet clearly defined. This application proposes a sensing processing method for MIMO sensing integration.

[0120] In this embodiment, a first node performs a first measurement based on a first signal to obtain first information. This first information includes second information and a first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship is a mapping relationship between at least a portion of the second information and at least one resource in the first resources. The first resource is used to perform the first measurement. The first information is used to determine at least one of target precoding and first parameter configuration information. The first parameter configuration information is used to execute target sensing integration services based on the target precoding. The first node is a sensing node that receives the first signal. In this way, target precoding can be used to execute target sensing integration services, thereby enabling MIMO sensing, fully utilizing the beam gain and multi-port gain of the MIMO system, and improving sensing or sensing integration performance.

[0121] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0123] Optionally, in one implementation, the target precoding and the first parameter configuration information can be determined by the second node. In this case, the first node can send the first information only to the second node, or the first node can send the first information only to the target device, and then the target device forwards the first information to the second node.

[0124] Alternatively, in one implementation, the second node may determine the target precoding, and the target device may determine the first parameter configuration information. In this case, the first node may send the first information to both the second node and the target device simultaneously, or the first node may send the first information only to the target device, and then the target device may forward the first information to the second node.

[0129] In this embodiment, when the first node and the second node are the same device, the first node can further determine the target precoding based on the first information. Further, the first parameter configuration information can be determined by the first node or by the target device. For example, if the first device determines the first parameter configuration information, the first operation includes determining the first parameter configuration information based on the first information. For example, if the target device determines the first parameter configuration information, the first operation includes receiving the first parameter configuration information from the target device. In this case, the first node needs to send first information to the target device, and the target device determines the first parameter configuration information based on the received first information, and then sends the first parameter configuration information to the first node.

[0130] Optionally, in some embodiments, determining the target precoding based on the first information includes:

[0131] Based on the second information in the first information, the feature vectors corresponding to the T feature values ​​of the first matrix are determined. The second information includes the first matrix or the index of the first matrix. The first matrix is ​​calculated and determined according to the perception angle range. T is a positive integer.

[0132] The target precoding is determined based on the feature vector.

[0133] In this embodiment, the aforementioned T feature values ​​can be the first T feature values ​​of the first matrix arranged in descending order. Optionally, T can be an integer less than or equal to K2. K2 is the amount of resources configured by the target device for the first node, which are used to execute target perception services based on perception precoding. In the following embodiments, T equal to K2 can be used as an example for illustration.

[0134] Optionally, the content of the second information can be set according to actual needs. For example, in some embodiments, the second information includes at least one of the following:

[0135] The index of the target precoding;

[0136] Quantization coefficient index of the linear combination of the target pre-encoded data;

[0142] The second indication information is used to indicate the association relationship between precoding and at least one of sensing time-frequency resources, communication time-frequency resources, integrated sensing time-frequency resources, sensing antenna ports, communication antenna ports, and integrated sensing antenna ports;

[0143] The measured value of a first target parameter, which is used to determine the type of precoding included in the target precoding;

[0144] The third indication information is used to indicate relevant information about the measured value of the first target parameter;

[0145] The target path includes at least one of the following: a multipath passing through the sensing target, a multipath passing through the first reflector, and a direct path between the first node and the second node; wherein the first reflector is a static reflector in the environment.

[0146] Optionally, the precoding type indicator can be understood or replaced as: an indicator of the precoding type of a precoding matrix or an indicator of the precoding type of a precoding vector. Specifically, the precoding type can be the precoding type of a column vector of a precoding matrix.

[0147] Alternatively, the above target precoding can be used To indicate, among which K2 represents the number of target precoding vectors or beams (for example, in the case where target precoding includes communication precoding vectors, sensing precoding vectors, and communication-sensing precoding vectors, K2 refers to the total number of the three types of precoding vectors), and M represents the number of transmit antenna ports used for sensing. It satisfies: Perceptual precoding Any one of the following can be a DFT vector, or a linear combination of different orthogonal DFT vectors. After the first measurement, the precoding information reported by the first node includes at least one of the following: the aforementioned orthogonal DFT vector or the index of the orthogonal DFT vector, the merging coefficient of the DFT vector or the index of the merging coefficient.

[0148] Optionally, the above-mentioned target pre-compiled matrix It can be further expressed in the following form: in Pre-coding for perception, specifically for perception; Precoding for communication, specifically for communication purposes; This is a communication-sensing precoding used for both communication and sensing. Here, K′+K″+K″′=K2, and when any one of them is zero, the corresponding precoding is empty.

[0149] Optionally, the arrangement of the K2 precoding vectors within matrix C can be arbitrary; this is just one example. The three matrices can be side-by-side or staggered. The first node needs to indicate to the second node which precoding vectors belong to C. s Those precoded vectors belong to C c Which precoding vectors belong to C? cs This is mainly because, for sensing purposes, the receiving end needs to know C, therefore the receiving end needs to restrict the structure of the C matrix.

[0150] Furthermore, since the sensing time-frequency resources, communication time-frequency resources, and antenna ports correspond to different precoding vectors, the mapping relationship between these time-frequency resources, antenna ports, and precoding vectors also needs to be indicated by the first node. The communication antenna port and the sensing antenna port may be different.

[0151] Optionally, for the first matrix mentioned above, assuming the guiding vector of the second node is a(θ), which is a unit vector, then the perception angle range Θ: θ∈[θ min ,θ max The first matrix corresponding to ] is Among them, determining the target precoding based on the first matrix A includes the following two cases:

[0152] Case 1: Determine the perceptual precoding based on the first matrix A. The first matrix can be determined according to... We obtain, where θ n =θ min +nΔθ,n=1,2,...,N θ , and Δθ=(θ max -θ min ) / N θ For angular stepping, N θ The first matrix can be associated with one or more consecutive sensing angle ranges, for example, assuming there are L sensing angle ranges Θ. l The first matrix corresponding to the set l = 1, 2, ..., L can be based on the union Θ = Θ1∪Θ2∪...∪Θ L And A=∫ Θ a(θ)a(θ) H dθ is calculated; or, Θ is calculated separately. l The first matrix A corresponding to l = 1, 2, ..., L l ,l=1,2,...,L,finally Where ρ is a coefficient.

[0153] Case 2: Determine communication-aware precoding based on the first matrix A. The first matrix can be determined according to... We obtain, where θ n =θ min +nΔθ, n=1,2,...,N θ，1 , and Δθ=(θ max -θ min ) / N θ，1 For angular stepping, N θ，1 A pre-defined, relatively large positive integer; N is the departure angle of the target path (i.e., the fifth target path) that forms the communication channel between the second node and the first node within the sensing angle range. θ，2The number of target paths.

[0154] Optionally, the sensing angle may include at least one of the azimuth angle and the elevation angle of the transmitting array. For example, if the sensing angle is the azimuth angle, the sensing angle range is the azimuth angle range; if the sensing angle is the elevation angle, the sensing angle range is the elevation angle range; or, for example, if the sensing angle includes both the azimuth angle and the elevation angle, let the azimuth angle range be Θ1: θ1∈[θ 1,min ,θ 1,max Let the range of pitch angles be Θ2: θ2∈[θ 2,min ,θ 2,max The corresponding first matrix is

[0155] In actual calculations, the first matrix can be based on We obtain, where θ 1,n =θ 1,min +nΔθ1,n=1,2,...,N 1,θ And Δθ1=(θ 1,max -θ 1,min ) / N 1,θ To move away from the azimuth angle step, N 1,θ θ is a pre-defined, relatively large positive integer. 2,n =θ 2,min +mΔθ2,m=1,2,...,N 2,θ And Δθ2=(θ 2,max -θ 2,min ) / N 2,θ To move away from the pitch angle step, N 2,θ It is a pre-defined, relatively large positive integer.

[0156] Optionally, the dimension of the second matrix can be K2×K2, and the second matrix can be a Hadamard matrix, a DFT matrix, or a matrix obtained by performing the Kronecker product of the two matrices mentioned above.

[0157] Optionally, the parameter measurements of the target path may include at least one of the following: complex amplitude (including amplitude and phase), power, time delay, departure azimuth, departure pitch, arrival azimuth, arrival pitch, Doppler frequency, and target specifications.

[0158] The target indicator refers to the perception-related indicator measured by the receiving device (such as a base station / UE), including at least one of the following three categories:

[0159] 1. Receiver power related indicators:

[0160] First metric (received power of the target path): The linear average (in W) of the received power of the target path in the resource unit carrying the first signal, obtained from the channel response measured for the first signal. The resource unit is a time-domain resource unit and / or a frequency-domain resource unit;

[0161] 2. Indicators related to interference and noise power:

[0162] The second metric is the sum of the linear average power of the paths other than the target path in the channel response of the first signal on the target resource, and the linear average power of the interference and noise from other signals other than the first signal on the target resource or other resources (e.g., resources configured for higher-layer signaling) (in W); where the target resource can be a time-frequency domain resource unit carrying the first signal.

[0163] The second indicator = total received power - the first indicator; where total received power can be expressed as: the linear average of the total received power on the target resource (including the received power of signals from the serving cell and non-serving cells, adjacent channel interference, and thermal noise, etc.) (in W); or, total received power = RSSI * K1, where K1 is a coefficient, and the measurement resource for Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) is the target resource or other resources (such as resources configured by higher-layer signaling);

[0164] The third indicator is the linear average value (in W) of the interference and noise power from signals other than the first signal on the target resource or other resources (such as resources configured by higher-level signaling); wherein, the target resource can be a time-frequency domain resource unit carrying the first signal.

[0165] The third indicator = total received power - first signal received power; where the first signal received power is the reference signal received power (RSRP) of the first signal.

[0166] The fourth metric is the linear average power (in W) of the power of all paths other than the target path in the channel response of the first signal on the target resource.

[0167] Fourth indicator = RSRP of the first signal - First indicator.

[0168] 3. Perception-related indicators:

[0169] Fifth indicator (first type of perception-related indicator) = First indicator / Second indicator;

[0170] The sixth indicator (the second type of perception-related indicator) = the first indicator / the third indicator;

[0171] The seventh indicator (the third type of perception-related indicator) = the first indicator / the fourth indicator;

[0172] The eighth metric (Reference Signal Received Quality, RSRQ) = K2 * First metric / Total received power, where K2 is a coefficient.

[0173] Among them, perception-related indicators can be understood as indicators related to the signal-to-interference plus-noise ratio (SINR), the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the perceived SIR, or the perceived RSRQ.

[0174] Optionally, the first indicator is calculated as follows:

[0175] The first node performs channel estimation based on the transmitted first signal X(k) and the corresponding received signal Y(k) to obtain the channel response H(k) = Y(k) / X(k), where k = 0, 1, 2, ..., K-1 represents the resource unit index. After obtaining the channel response H(k), the first node transforms it to the first dimension and determines the target path in the first dimension. Then, the power of the target path is calculated as the first index. If the target path includes multiple paths, the sum of the power of the multiple paths is calculated as the first index.

[0176] The first dimension includes one of the following:

[0177] Time delay dimension;

[0178] Dopplerweis;

[0179] Azimuth dimension;

[0180] Pitch angle;

[0181] The dimension must include at least two of the following: time delay dimension, Doppler dimension, azimuth dimension, and pitch dimension. For example, time delay-Doppler dimension, time delay-Doppler-angle dimension, etc.

[0182] For example, H(f) is the channel response, where f = 0, 1, 2, ..., N-1 represents the frequency domain sampling points (e.g., subcarrier index). Then, by performing an inverse Fourier transform on H(f), it can be transformed to the time delay dimension (the first dimension). As another example, H(f,t) is the channel response, where f = 0, 1, 2, ..., N-1 represents the frequency domain sampling points (e.g., subcarrier index), and t = 0, 1, 2, ..., M-1 represents the time domain sampling points (e.g., OFDM symbol index). Then, by performing an inverse Fourier transform along the frequency domain and a Fourier transform along the time domain, it can be transformed to the time delay dimension. The first dimension is the delay-Doppler dimension. For example, H(f,t,s) is the channel response, where f = 0,1,2,…,N-1 represents the frequency domain sampling points (e.g., subcarrier index), t = 0,1,2,…,M-1 represents the time domain sampling points (e.g., OFDM symbol index), and s = 0,1,2,…,P-1 represents the spatial domain sampling points (antenna index or port index). Then, by performing an inverse Fourier transform along the frequency domain dimension, a Fourier transform along the time domain dimension, and a Fourier transform along the antenna domain dimension on H(f,t,s), it can be transformed to the delay-Doppler-angle dimension (the first dimension).

[0183] Method for determining the target path in the channel response obtained from the first signal measurement:

[0184] Determine the first path set. The paths in the first path set include those whose amplitude / power / intensity / energy exceeds a certain threshold after the channel response is transformed to the first dimension. (For example, in Figure 6, paths 0, 1, 2, and 3 are paths in the first path set). The certain threshold can be set to be higher than a noise threshold or higher than a noise interference threshold. This step (determining the first path set) is optional; it can be based solely on the next step to determine the target path. Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of multipaths in the first dimension of the response channel (the horizontal axis represents the first dimension, and the vertical axis represents the normalized amplitude / power / intensity / energy). The first dimension can be a time-domain dimension, a Doppler dimension, an azimuth dimension, or a pitch dimension.

[0185] Select a path that satisfies the first condition from the first set of paths or from all paths, and use it as the target path.

[0186] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0187] The amplitude / power / intensity / energy of the path exceeds a preset threshold or falls within a preset range; for example, the preset threshold is 6dB above the noise threshold.

[0188] The Doppler amplitude of the path exceeds the preset threshold or falls within the preset range;

[0189] The path delay exceeds a preset threshold or falls within a preset range;

[0190] The angle of the radius exceeds the preset threshold or falls within the preset range;

[0191] The difference in amplitude / power / intensity / energy between the first-reaching path (e.g., the LOS path) or the reference path (e.g., the signal path reflected by a known target (e.g., a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) / backscatter device / other known passive target, etc.)) exceeds a preset threshold or falls within a preset range.

[0192] The Doppler difference between the path and the first path (e.g., the LOS path) or the reference path (e.g., the signal path reflected by a known target (e.g., RIS / Backscatter device / other known passive targets, etc.)) exceeds a preset threshold or is within a preset range;

[0193] The time delay difference between the path and the first path (e.g., the LOS path) or the reference path (e.g., the signal path reflected by a known target (e.g., RIS / Backscatter device / other known passive targets, etc.)) exceeds a preset threshold or is within a preset range;

[0194] The angle difference between the path and the first path (e.g., the LOS path) or the reference path (e.g., the signal path reflected by a known target (e.g., RIS / Backscatter device / other known passive targets)) exceeds a preset threshold or is within a preset range;

[0195] The amplitude / power / intensity / energy or phase of the path satisfies a specific modulation rule, which is the modulation rule of the Tag / Backscatter device / RIS, that is, the target path can be a path that has been modulated and reflected by the Tag / Backscatter device / RIS.

[0196] It should be understood that the first condition of each of the above items can also be based on the results of statistics over a period of time; for example, the proportion of the above indicators (such as Doppler of the path, time delay of the path, etc.) exceeding the preset threshold or falling within the preset range within the preset time window reaches the preset proportion, or the number of times the above indicators (such as Doppler of the path, time delay of the path, etc.) exceed the preset threshold or fall within the preset range within the preset time window reaches the preset number.

[0197] The preset threshold or set range is sent to the receiving device by other devices, and determined by those other devices based on prior sensing information or sensing requirements. Alternatively, the preset threshold or set range is determined by the receiving device based on prior sensing information or sensing requirements.

[0198] Among them, prior information for perception or perception needs includes the following information:

[0199] Sensing services or sensing service types, such as detecting the presence of a target, positioning, velocity detection, distance detection, angle detection, acceleration detection, material analysis, composition analysis, shape detection, category classification, and radar cross section (RCS). The sensing services include: Section (RCS) detection, polarization scattering characteristic detection, fall detection, intrusion detection, quantity statistics, indoor positioning, gesture recognition, lip reading, gait recognition, facial expression recognition, respiration monitoring, heart rate monitoring, pulse monitoring, humidity / brightness / temperature / atmospheric pressure monitoring, air quality monitoring, weather condition monitoring, environmental reconstruction, terrain and landform, building / vegetation distribution detection, pedestrian or vehicle flow detection, crowd density, vehicle density detection, etc. The sensing service types can be classified according to certain characteristics, such as by function (detection-type sensing services, including intrusion detection and fall detection), parameter estimation-type sensing services (distance, angle, and speed calculation), and recognition-type sensing services (action recognition, identity recognition), etc. They can also be classified by sensing range (near-range sensing, medium-range sensing, and long-range sensing), by sensing fineness (coarse-grained sensing, fine-grained sensing, etc.), by power consumption / energy consumption, and by resource usage, etc. If the sensing service is respiratory monitoring, the corresponding normal respiratory rate can be determined based on the person's gender and age (e.g., male: 13-21 breaths / minute, female: 15-20 breaths / minute; adult: 12-20 breaths / minute, child: approximately 30-40 breaths / minute), which can be used as prior information for sensing.

[0200] Target area for perception: refers to the location area of ​​the perceived object, or the location area that needs to be imaged or reconstructed; for example, a preset range of time delay for determining the target path based on the approximate location / distance of the perceived object.

[0201] Sensing object type: Sensing objects are classified according to their possible motion characteristics. Each sensing object type contains information such as the typical motion velocity range, motion acceleration range, and typical RCS range of the sensing object.

[0202] The number of targets perceived; for example, the camera's perception results, as a kind of prior information, can be used to determine the number of targets perceived.

[0203] For example, in Figure 6, paths 0, 1, 2, and 3 are paths in the first path set, where paths 2 and 3 are sensing paths that satisfy the first condition (e.g., their time delay meets a preset threshold), and paths 0 and 1 are paths associated with other scatterers.

[0204] For frequency range 1, the reference point for the first indicator can be the antenna connector of the first node (such as a terminal). For frequency range 1, if the receiving device has multiple receiving channels, the first indicator measured and reported by the receiving device cannot be lower than the indicator of any single receiving channel. For frequency range 2, the first indicator measured by a certain receiving channel needs to be obtained by measuring the combined signal on multiple antenna elements corresponding to that receiving channel.

[0205] Calculation method 2 for the first indicator (optional):

[0206] Optionally, when calculating the received power of the target path, it can also be the power of the target path in the first dimension combined with... The difference is used as the first indicator, where N1 represents the number of target paths. It represents the average power of multiple paths outside the first path set in the first dimension.

[0207] How to calculate total received power: Total received power

[0208] The calculation method for the second indicator:

[0209] The channel response H(k) is processed by the first filter to obtain H. filter1 (k), then according to H filter1 The received signal Y after the first filtering process is calculated from (k) and the first signal X(k). filter1 (k), i.e., Y filter1 (k)=H filter1 (k)X(k). Then subtract the received signal Y(k) after the first filtering process from the received signal Y(k). filter1 (k) thus obtaining the interference and noise signal Y σ1 (k), i.e., Y σ1 (k)=Y(k)-Y filter1 (k), and then calculate the second index.

[0210] The first filtering process is used to eliminate noise and interference in the first dimension, as well as non-target paths. For example, the first filtering process sets the amplitude / power / intensity / energy of paths other than the target path in Figure 5 to zero. The channel response H after the first filtering process is shown below. filter1 (k) excludes noise, interference, and non-target paths, and only includes the target path. In Figure 5, a partial path is shown as an example including two reflectors 51.

[0211] The calculation method for the third indicator:

[0212] The channel response H(k) is processed by a second filter to obtain H. filter2 (k), then according to H filter2 The received signal Y after the second filtering process is calculated from the first signal X(k) and the first signal X(k). filter2 (k), i.e., Y filter2 (k)=H filter2 (k)X(k). Then subtract the received signal Y(k) after the second filtering process from the received signal Y(k). filter2 (k) thus obtaining the interference and noise signal Y σ2 (k), i.e., Y σ2 (k)=Y(k)-Y filter2 (k), and then calculate the third index.

[0213] The second filtering process can be noise interference suppression processing on the first dimension (e.g., setting the amplitude / power / intensity / energy of other paths besides the first path set in Figure 6 to zero), or MMSE filtering. The channel response H after the second filtering process... filter2 (k) does not contain noise and interference, but only contains paths from the first path set.

[0214] The third indicator can be calculated in two ways (optional):

[0215] Based on the average power of multiple paths outside the first path set in the first dimension The third index P was calculated. σ2 ,Right now Where N represents the number of sampling points in the first dimension.

[0216] Alternatively, if the receiving device identifies multiple sensing targets, or if the receiving device obtains the number of sensing targets based on prior sensing information or sensing requirements, the following methods are available:

[0217] Method 1: Calculate the target index for each sensing target separately. For example, in Figure 6, determine the path associated with each sensing target, and then calculate the target index corresponding to each sensing target. When calculating the second index for a certain sensing target (such as sensing target A), there are two methods: namely, the second index of sensing target A = total received power - the first index of sensing target A; or, the second index of sensing target A = total received power - the first index of sensing target A - the first index of sensing target B; (assuming there are two sensing targets: A and B). Similarly, there are two ways to calculate the fourth index: the fourth index of sensing target A = the RSRP of the first signal - the first index of sensing target A; or, the fourth index of sensing target A = the RSRP of the first signal - the first index of sensing target A - the first index of sensing target B; (assuming there are two sensing targets: A and B).

[0218] Method 2: Calculate a target index for multiple sensing targets. For example, in Figure 6, determine the paths associated with any sensing target, and then treat all these paths as paths to the target; this is equivalent to treating multiple sensing targets as a virtual sensing target, and then calculating the target index corresponding to this virtual sensing target.

[0219] Optionally, in some embodiments, the target path described above includes at least one of the following:

[0220] The first target path is a path that passes through the second node, the perceived target, and the first node in sequence.

[0221] The second target path is a path that passes through the second node, the environmental reflector, the sensing target, and the first node in sequence.

[0222] The third target path is a path that passes through the second node, the sensing target, the environmental reflector, and the first node in sequence.

[0223] The fourth target path is a path that passes through the second node, the environmental reflector, the sensing target, the environmental reflector, and the first node in sequence.

[0224] The fifth target path includes the direct path from the second node to the first node, and the path passing through the second node, the environmental reflector, and the first node in sequence;

[0225] The second node is the transmitting sensing node for the sensing signal, and the first node is the receiving sensing node for the sensing signal.

[0226] The first target path can be understood as the path from the second node to the perceived target and then back to the first node, without passing through the environmental reflector; the second target path can be understood as the path from the second node to the environmental reflector, then back to the perceived target, and then back to the first node; the third target path can be understood as the path from the second node to the perceived target, then back to the environmental reflector, and then back to the first node; the fourth target path can be understood as the path from the second node to the environmental reflector, then back to the perceived target, then back to the environmental reflector, and then back to the first node; the fifth target path can be understood as including the direct path from the second node to the first node, and the path from the second node to the environmental reflector and then back to the first node.

[0227] It should be noted that the term "path" in this application can be understood or replaced with "multipath," "path," or "ray." Specifically, the "path" refers to a signal propagation path, which can also be called a sub-path.

[0228] Optionally, as shown in Figure 5, the first target path can be understood as the path OAP; the second target path can be understood as the path OBAP; the third target path can be understood as the path OACP; the fourth target path can be understood as the path OBACP; the direct path from the second node to the first node in the fifth target path can be understood as the path OP; and the path from the second node to the environmental reflector and then to the first node in the fifth target path can be understood as the path OBP and ODEP.

[0229] Among the aforementioned paths, those associated with the sensing target include the first target path, the second target path, the third target path, and the fourth target path, which can provide the sensing receiving node (i.e., the first node) with sensing target information from different observation perspectives. When the first node has prior information about the environmental reflectors (e.g., reflection coefficient, position, distance, relative angle, etc.), or can simultaneously determine the aforementioned information of the environmental reflectors during measurement, it can obtain superior sensing performance compared to using only the first target path by additionally utilizing any one of the second to fourth target paths, in addition to the first target path. This includes improved sensing SNR / SINR, improved detection performance, improved sensing accuracy, and acquisition of more comprehensive sensing information.

[0230] Paths not directly related to the sensing target, i.e., the fifth target path, are generally considered as self-interference and background clutter. However, if some prior sensing information is known, such as the second and first nodes, or the position coordinates and state (including whether it is stationary or in motion, i.e., velocity magnitude and direction) of environmental reflectors, the fifth target path can be used to eliminate non-ideal factors between the second and first nodes, such as carrier frequency offset, timing offset, sampling frequency offset, random phase, etc. Furthermore, through sensing measurements, the second node determines the state of the environmental reflectors based on such paths. This measurement information can be further used to subsequently determine the sensing target information, or to determine the target path information from the second to the fourth target paths. The environmental reflector can be a whole composed of one or more physical objects in the environment.

[0231] It should be noted that the perceptual precoding index, quantization coefficient index, first angle information, first matrix, index of the first matrix, second matrix, index of the second matrix, precoding type indicated by the first indication information, and association relationship indicated by the second indication information contained in the above second information can be understood as the content recommended by the first node, used to determine or assist in determining the target precoding and first parameter configuration information.

[0232] Optionally, the target device or the second node can determine the target precoding using the first matrix. At least a portion (e.g., including, determining a submatrix C of C) s Or C cs And another part C c Based on the communication precoding information reported by the first node, C is determined; the second node then determines C based on the first indication information. Therefore, after performing the first sensing measurement, the first node can also choose to report any of the following: (a) the first matrix A; (b) the eigenvector matrix and eigenvalues ​​of A; (c) the index of the first matrix A; (d) the index of the eigenvector matrix and the eigenvalue index of the first matrix A; (e) the angular range information used to calculate A, including θ. min θ max , Δθ, N θ Any three or more of them.

[0233] Furthermore, the target device or the second node needs to indicate the angle definition method to the first node, including reference coordinate system information. The indicated angle definition method can be understood as how the angle is defined. First, a unified reference coordinate system must be established. For example, a commonly used coordinate system is one where the x-axis is parallel to the normal emission direction of the sensing node's antenna array, the y-axis and z-axis are parallel to the antenna panel, and the z-axis points towards the North Pole. The angle is defined as the angle between the first signal and the x-axis, with a positive angle when viewed counterclockwise from the z-axis and a negative angle in the opposite direction. When the second node is a planar or linear array, the maximum unambiguous azimuth angle estimation range is -90° to 90°.

[0234] Optionally, the second matrix Q is used to determine the sensing precoding. The sensing precoding can be determined jointly by the initial sensing precoding C0 and the second matrix Q. The second matrix Q is applied by right-multiplying the initial precoding C0 to obtain the final precoding used to transmit the sensing signal, i.e., C = C0Q. The purpose of the second matrix Q is to ensure that the power of the K2 beams formed after the second node performs sensing precoding remains as constant as possible within the corresponding sensing angle range Θ. It should be noted that there is a case where the initial precoding C0 is the final sensing precoding matrix, i.e., C = C0. In this case, the first node only reports C and does not report Q.

[0235] Optionally, when reporting the parameter measurement values ​​of the target path, the first node may also report a target path type indication and the association between the parameter measurement values ​​of the target path and the target path type. The target path type indication is used by the first node to notify the target device which type or groups of target paths (first to fifth) it is measuring. For example, it can be indicated using a bitmap, i.e., using a 5-bit binary sequence to indicate the type of target path measured and reported by the first node. For example, "10000" indicates that the first node is measuring the first target path and reporting the associated parameter measurement values, and that no information related to the second to fifth target paths is measured or reported; another example is "01101," which indicates that the first node is measuring the second, third, and fifth target paths and reporting the parameter measurement values ​​associated with at least one of them, and that no information related to the first and fourth target paths is measured or reported.

[0236] Optionally, the target device can be a core network device or a device in the core network, such as an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF), a Sensing Function (SF), a communication application server in the core network, and a sensing application server in the core network.

[0237] Alternatively, the computation method for communication-aware precoding can be any of the following:

[0241] One implementation method could be to use the first matrix described above. Perform eigenvalue decomposition to obtain K s The eigenvectors corresponding to the largest eigenvalues Parameter measurements based on target diameter Calculate the third matrix (i.e., the communication channel matrix). The third matrix can be calculated based on... Calculate, where α n n = 1, 2, ..., N θ,2 Let n be the complex amplitude of the target path. These are the departure azimuth and arrival azimuth of the nth target path, respectively. Then, the correlation matrix R = BB of the third matrix is ​​further calculated. H and the matrix Perform eigenvalue decomposition to obtain K c The eigenvectors corresponding to the largest eigenvalues The communication-aware precoding matrix is ​​then composed of vectors. sum vector The matrix formed together, for example Where K s "+K c "=K";

[0242] One implementation method could be to calculate the fourth matrix D = A + R, where R=BB H and Then the matrix Perform eigenvalue decomposition to obtain the eigenvectors corresponding to the K″ largest eigenvalues, forming C. cs .

[0286] The first node performs a second operation, the second operation including any one of the following: determining second parameter configuration information; receiving second parameter configuration information from the target device;

[0287] The second parameter configuration information is used to perform the first measurement.

[0288] In this embodiment, before performing the first measurement, the first node needs to obtain second parameter configuration information to perform the first measurement based on the second parameter configuration information. Specifically, the second parameter configuration information can be determined by the first node or the target device. For example, the first node or the target device can determine the second parameter configuration information based on prior information. If the target device determines the second parameter configuration information, the target device can send the second parameter configuration information to the first node and the second node.

[0289] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second parameter configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0300] Among them, the reporting configuration information related to target precoding can be understood as the requirements for the reported codebook, including specifying the type of codebook to be reported (e.g., a codebook based on K1 or K2 DFT basis vectors, or a codebook based on a linear combination of multiple DFT basis vectors), the maximum number of beams, indicating whether to perform time delay domain compression, and indicating whether to perform Doppler domain codebook compression.

[0301] Reporting execution time information can be understood as time domain behavior information, which can include periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, aperiodic reporting, or triggered reporting.

[0307] The first target parameter is used to determine the type of precoding included in the target precoding.

[0308] Optionally, the aforementioned first target parameter is used to indicate the correlation between the communication channel and the sensing channel, wherein the communication channel is at least a part of the communication channel between the second node and the first node, and may be composed of at least one of the fifth target paths. Optionally, the communication channel may also include at least one first target path / at least one second target path / at least one third target path / at least one fourth target path; the sensing channel is a target path associated with a sensing target or sensing area, that is, the sensing channel may be composed of at least one first target path / at least one second target path / at least one third target path / at least one fourth target path.

[0309] Optionally, the function of the aforementioned first target parameter is to determine the channel correlation index to assist the second node in determining the precoding type. One possible scenario is that the second node only feeds back precoding information, but does not feed back information such as the first indication information and the second indication information; these are determined by the second node itself, as the second node possesses information on communication time-frequency resources, sensing time-frequency resources, and antenna port resources.

[0310] Specifically, the first target parameter can help the second node determine whether the communication channel and the sensing channel need to use the same precoding vector (in this case, the time-frequency resources of communication and sensing are generally orthogonal, but the propagation paths of the signals are the same or similar), or whether the precoding vectors are different / orthogonal (in this case, communication and sensing precoding may not be necessary, but only communication precoding and sensing precoding need to be determined separately).

[0311] Optionally, the aforementioned sixth indication information can indicate a channel composed of multipath paths that meets preset conditions. For example, the indication information can be range information in the time delay domain, angle domain (including at least one of departure azimuth, departure pitch, arrival azimuth, and arrival pitch), and power domain. The channel composed of multipath paths that meets the range information is the target channel. The target channel is further used to calculate the first target parameter. This indication information can be obtained based on some prior information, such as the approximate location of the perceived target, or historical sensing measurement values / sensing results.

[0312] Optionally, the fifth indication information can be used to indicate which one or more of the first target parameters fed back by the terminal are, such as the correlation matrix distance, etc.

[0313] Optionally, the aforementioned target conditions are used to assist the first node in determining the precoding type, such as decision information and threshold information. For example, the first node can determine whether to use communication-aware precoding, communication precoding, aware precoding, or all three types of precoding based on whether the measured value of the first target parameter is higher or lower than a certain threshold value.

[0314] Optionally, the evaluation metrics for channel correlation may include at least one of the following:

[0324] Channel vector correlation coefficient: also known as Pearson correlation coefficient;

[0325] The similarity parameters of the channel vector element set include: Jaccard Similarity Coefficient and Jaccard Distance;

[0326] Optionally, the channel vector is the frequency domain channel transfer function (frequency domain channel response) or channel impulse response (time domain channel response) between any two antennas on the transmitter and / or receiver.

[0327] Optionally, the channel parameter vector similarity parameter includes at least one of the following:

[0328] Channel parameter vector distance class parameters;

[0329] Channel parameter vector cosine class parameters;

[0330] Channel parameter vector correlation coefficient;

[0331] Similarity parameter of the set of elements in the channel parameter vector;

[0332] Optionally, the channel parameter vector is a parameter vector consisting of at least two different channel parameters obtained by parameter estimation from the channel vector, or a parameter vector consisting of sampled samples of the same channel parameter at different times and / or frequencies and / or different local physical locations.

[0333] Optionally, the channel parameters include:

[0344] Spatial Correlation Matrix.

[0345] Optionally, the target condition may include one or more preset conditions, wherein the preset conditions may be that the measured value of the first target parameter satisfies one or more preset threshold values.

[0346] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0347] The first node transmits a second signal based on the target precoding, and the second signal is used for the target integrated sensing service.

[0348] In this embodiment, after the first node sends the second signal based on the perception precoding, it also receives the second signal to perform the target perception service and obtain the measurement value or measurement result of the perception measurement quantity. The first node can send the measurement value or measurement result of the perception measurement quantity to the target device. Optionally, the target device can send the measurement value or measurement result of the perception measurement quantity to the perception demand party, such as an external application server.

[0349] It should be noted that during the execution of the integrated sensing service, the transmitting node of the first signal (such as the second node) can use an initial target precode C0 and one or more second matrices Q to generate multiple target precodes for transmitting the first signal. For example, different target precodes can be used on multiple transmitting symbols or transmitting time slots to ensure that the total beam power corresponding to different ports is approximately constant throughout the entire integrated sensing service process, and that the total power between different beams does not differ significantly.

[0350] For example, during the execution of the target service, the perceptual precoding of the nth symbol or time slot can be C. n =C0Q n Q n This represents the product of n second matrices Q; for example, the precoding of the nth symbol or time slot can be C. n =C0Q n Q n The second matrix represents the nth symbol or time slot;

[0351] Therefore, when the target precoding matrix needs to be changed in a specified symbol or time slot during the perception process, the first information fed back by the second node may include more than one second matrix or more than one index of a second matrix. In addition, the first information may also include: the active symbol / time slot position of the second matrix corresponding to the more than one second matrix or the index of the more than one second matrix.

[0352] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0353] The first node determines the measured value of the first target parameter based on the measured value of the target path parameter, wherein the measured value of the target path parameter is determined based on the first measurement;

[0354] The first node sends the measured value of the first target parameter to the target device;

[0355] The first node receives a seventh indication information from the target device, the seventh indication information being used to indicate the precoding type included in the target precoding, the precoding type being determined based on the measured value of the first target parameter.

[0356] In this embodiment of the application, when the target device determines the precoding type, the first node can report the measured value of the first target parameter to the target device, and then the target device determines the precoding type based on the reported measured value, and then notifies the first node through the seventh indication information.

[0357] In some embodiments, a codebook scheme 1 for sensing precoding can be used. The following explanation will focus on the sensing angle range being the range of sensing angles away from the azimuth angle. Of course, in other embodiments, this can be extended to the range of sensing angles away from the pitch angle, or consider the cases of both the azimuth and pitch angles simultaneously. Specifically, taking the sensing angle range being the range of sensing angles away from the azimuth angle as an example, in codebook scheme 1 for sensing precoding, the optimal solution for sensing precoding C is the eigenvector corresponding to the largest K2 eigenvalues ​​of the first matrix A, and the first matrix A is closely related to the aforementioned measurement parameters. Therefore, the maximum range of sensing angles away from the azimuth angle of the second node (e.g., a network-side device) can be divided into X angle ranges, and a first matrix A can be calculated for each angle range. m m = 1, 2, ..., X, where each first matrix A m A corresponding index is provided; when the first node provides the first information, the first information can be the aforementioned first matrix A. m The second node determines A based on the corresponding index value. m When multiple angle ranges exist, the first node returns multiple index values, and the second node determines multiple A values ​​based on these index values. m If m ∈ P, and P is a subset of the set {1, 2, ..., X}, then the final first matrix is... Where ρ is a coefficient.

[0358] The method for dividing the maximum departure azimuth sensing angle range of the second node can be preset. The X angle ranges can be divided according to equal angle divisions or based on the 3dB beamwidth of the DFT beam. Optionally, the angle range division can be multi-layered or multi-granular. Specifically, taking equal angle division as an example, assuming the maximum departure azimuth sensing angle range of the second node is -60° to 60°, this maximum departure azimuth sensing angle range can be divided into X = 12 equal parts (each angle range is 10°), and each part corresponds to one A. i ,i=1,2,...,12; Furthermore, a smaller granularity of division can be considered, for example, dividing the maximum sensing angle range of the second node into X=24 equal parts (each angle range is 5°), with each part corresponding to an A. j ′,j=1,2,...,24; , at this point, a total of 12+24=36 first matrix indices are obtained. The first node returns several of these 36 indices to determine the final first matrix. (or, ), where P1 and P2 are subsets of the sets {1,2,...,12} and {1,2,...,24}, respectively, representing the set of indices selected for the first node. ρ1, ρ2, and ρ are all coefficients.

[0359] As shown in Figure 7, the maximum horizontal azimuth sensing angle range (120°) of the second node (e.g., network-side device) is divided into two granularities (10° and 5°). Assuming that the numbering is done clockwise in Figure 7, the blue angle range in the figure represents the angle range associated with the sensing area / sensing target / target path determined by the first node (e.g., terminal device) through the first sensing measurement. These ranges correspond to the first matrix A3, A7′, A6, and A1′5, respectively. The second node reports the index values ​​(e.g., i = 3, i = 6, j = 7, j = 15) corresponding to the above matrix.

[0360] The second node, based on the first matrix index set fed back by the first node, determines the first matrix A, and then performs eigenvalue decomposition on A to obtain the eigenvectors corresponding to the K2 largest eigenvalues, which serve as the perceptual precoding codebook. This codebook scheme based on the first matrix index only requires the first node to feed back the first matrix index, resulting in low feedback overhead.

[0361] It should be noted that for a certain angular range granularity, the first matrix eigenvectors for different angular ranges can be pre-calculated and stored to establish a mapping relationship between the codebook and the reporting index, which can reduce the computational load of the equipment to a certain extent. Taking Figure 7 as an example, assuming the second node has 10 transmitting antennas and uses two transmitting ports (or beams) (i.e., K2 = 2), the vectors corresponding to the two largest eigenvalues ​​of A6 are [-0.2112-0.1704i, -0.1737-0.2442i, -0.1087-0.3030i, -0.0239-0.3365i, 0.0695-0.3381i, 0.1582-0.3068i, 0.2299-0.2469i, 0.2749-0.1676]. i,0.2885-0.0810i,0.2714+0.0000i],[0.3679+0.2989i,0.2262+0.3197i,0.0984+0.2755i,0.0129+0.1803i,-0.0119+0.0600i,0.0285-0.0541i,0.1237-0.1318i,0.2501-0.1517i,0.3771-0.1055i,0.4740+0.0000i]. Using this precoding codebook, the second node can form two orthogonal beams within the angular range of 0° to 10°, and the power of their combined beam remains constant within this angular range. Since the second node uses two transmission ports, the first node can perform MIMO sensing in subsequent sensing operations to obtain accurate angle information of the sensed target / target path (including accurate departure angle and arrival angle information). It should be noted that when the sensed target / target path is widely and extensively distributed across the angle domain, the combinations of the summation terms in the first matrix will be numerous. For example, in Figure 7, the actual first matrix A = ρ1(A3+A6) + ρ2(A7′+A1′5) or A = ρ(A3+A6+A7′+A1′5). If the codebook corresponding to each combination of the first matrix is ​​pre-stored, the storage requirement will become enormous. Therefore, in practical applications, only the codebook corresponding to a portion of the first matrix for a single continuous angle range can be pre-calculated and stored. In complex multipath environments, the codebook is still calculated based on the actual situation.

[0362] In some embodiments, a perceptual precoding codebook scheme 2 can be employed. In this scheme, the perceptual precoding codebook can be an unquantized codebook based on the eigenvectors of the first matrix A (such as the codebook in scheme 1), or it can be a codebook based on DFT vectors and quantized linear array combination coefficients. The characteristic of this scheme is that after the second node and the first node perform the first perceptual measurement, the first node determines the first matrix A and the eigenvectors corresponding to its largest K2 eigenvalues ​​according to the measurement parameters described in this embodiment. Based on this result, the first node can determine at least one of the following pieces of information for constructing the perceptual precoding:

[0363] The DFT vector or DFT vector index of the first domain;

[0364] The combination coefficients of the linear combination of the DFT vectors in the first domain, or the index of the quantized combination coefficients;

[0365] Number of DFT vectors in the first domain.

[0366] The first domain includes at least one of the angle domain, beam domain, frequency domain, time delay domain, and Doppler domain.

[0367] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the feedback of A and Q can be sub-band level feedback, with different index values ​​for different frequency domain ranges.

[0368] In one implementation, the above-described perceptual precoding scheme can be implemented based on an NR Type II codebook or an Enhanced Type II codebook (see 3GPP TS 38.214). For example, the first node determines a first matrix A, which can also be divided into a wideband first matrix A. WB And the first matrix A of the sub-band SB For example, one possible implementation is to average A over all frequency points to obtain the first broadband matrix A. WB The average of A within each sub-band is taken to obtain the first sub-band matrix A of each sub-band. SB For A respectively WB and A SB Perform eigenvalue decomposition or singular value decomposition to obtain a matrix consisting of the eigenvectors corresponding to their K2 largest eigenvalues. Then perform the following steps:

[0369] Step 1: The first node selects one set from the DFT beam orthogonal basis of group O1O2, and further determines the broadband beam group B = [d1, d2, ..., d] from the selected beam orthogonal basis. L(i.e., L DFT beams, where L can be 2, 3, 4, or even larger). Considering that sensing does not necessarily require multi-layer transmission and multi-polarization, for simplicity, only single-layer single-polarization is considered here. Therefore, the beam selection matrix W1 = B. Where O1 and O2 are the oversampling factors in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. In this implementation, if dual polarization is considered, different polarizations can select the same broadband beam group;

[0370] Step 2: Perform amplitude quantization of the bandwidth coefficient on the first node and calculate the quantization coefficient P. WB In this real-time mode, if dual polarization is considered, the amplitude quantization of the broadband coefficients can be performed independently for different polarization directions. The broadband channel eigenvector is then... The broadband beam combination coefficient matrix is Then there should be Since W1 is a unitary matrix, therefore right Amplitude normalization quantization is performed based on the strongest beam coefficient to obtain the broadband amplitude quantization coefficient. In this embodiment, after the first node undergoes the first sensing measurement, it feeds back PMI content (including parameter i). 1,1 i 1,2 i 2,3,l (etc.) Determine the orthogonal basis index of the shape-based codebook of the second node, and the amplitude coefficient of the r-th polarization of the l-th orthogonal beam.

[0371] Step 3: The first node performs subband coefficient amplitude and phase quantization. Similar to wideband coefficient amplitude quantization, this is based on the subband channel feature vector. and W1 should have get right Amplitude normalization quantization is performed based on the strongest broadband beam coefficient to obtain the sub-band amplitude quantization coefficient. and sub-band phase quantization coefficients Finally obtained After channel estimation, the UE feeds back the Precoding Matrix Indicator (PMI) content (including parameter i). 1,6,l i 1,7,l i 1,8,l i 2,4,l i 2,5,l (etc.) determines the subband amplitude and phase coefficients of the downlink shaping codebook. NR's Enhanced Type II codebook performs feedback overhead compression and rank expansion on the Type II codebook. The frequency domain compression method of the Enhanced Type II codebook can also be applied to feedback compression in perceptual precoding, which will not be elaborated here.

[0372] In one implementation, the above-described sensing precoding scheme can be implemented based on the NR Type I codebook (see 3GPP TS 38.214). The implementation process is similar to that of the Type II codebook, but relatively simpler. After acquiring at least one of the above-described measurement parameters, the first node can determine the beam and port phase difference of the Type I codebook. Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0373] Step 1: The first node selects one set from the DFT beam orthogonal basis of set O1O2, and further determines the broadband beam group B = [d1, d2, ..., d] from the selected beam orthogonal basis. L = W1 (i.e., L DFT beams, where L can be 1, 4 or even larger);

[0374] Step 2: The first node performs beam selection and phase difference quantization. The first node is generated. Where P is used to select the beam, the selected beam is set to 1, and all other elements are set to 0. Used to quantize the phase difference between the two polarization directions. Quantization, N p ∈{1,2,3,4}, ultimately When the first node provides feedback on the PMI, it reports index i. 1,1 i 1,2 i 1,3 i2 is used to select the codebook and rotate the phase between different antenna ports.

[0375] In summary, perceptual precoding The precoding vector can be a linear combination of multiple DFT vectors, i.e. and Where d is the DFT vector; or, perceptual precoding. The precoding vector can be a matrix directly composed of DFT vectors, i.e. In addition, perceptual precoding It can also contain both a linear combination vector of the above multiple DFT vectors and a DFT vector, that is... The middle part of the column vectors is a linear combination of multiple DFT vectors, determined using the Type II codebook feedback method described above; while the other part of the column vectors is a DFT vector, which can be determined using the Type I codebook feedback method described above. In this case, in addition to reporting the Type I and Type II codebook indices, the first node also needs to report precoding type indication information to notify the second node which beams belong to the Type I codebook beams and which belong to the Type II codebook beams.

[0376] The main difference between codebook scheme 2 and codebook scheme 1 lies in the fact that Scheme 2 uses a DFT vector-based codebook feedback method to instruct the perceptual precoding of the second node, with the precoding matrix calculation performed at the first node, whereas Scheme 1's precoding matrix calculation is performed at the second node. The feedback content also differs, and this scheme is well-compatible with NR codebook feedback schemes in related technologies.

[0377] In some embodiments, a codebook scheme 3 for perceptual precoding can be adopted. In the codebook scheme 3 for perceptual precoding, the precoding vector c corresponding to each beam in the perceptual precoding... k K = 1, 2, ..., K2 can contain parts that are originally 0, i.e. Where v′ k k = 1, 2, ..., K2 is a vector with a length less than the number of transmit antennas M. It can be a linear combination of multiple DFT vectors or a single DFT vector. v′ is determined based on at least one of the measurement parameters obtained from the first sensing measurement. The first node can directly feed back v′. k For k = 1, 2, ..., K2, the codebook scheme 2 method, i.e. the codebook feedback method based on NR PMI, can also be used.

[0378] Furthermore, this codebook scheme 3 also requires feedback of the length information used to determine v′, and the position of v′ in the matrix. The location information. One alternative implementation is that the first node directly feeds back the length of v′ and the position of v′ in the matrix. The row and column coordinates; or, alternatively, the position of v′ (e.g., the position of the first element) can be indicated by a bitmap or selection matrix P′. For example, the position corresponding to an element 1 in the bitmap or selection matrix P′ is the position of the first element of v′. Furthermore, the bitmap or selection matrix P′ can also implicitly indicate the length of v′, for example, the dimensions of the bitmap or selection matrix P′ are the same as those of the matrix. Similarly, the position of element 1 is the position of v′, and the number of 1 elements in each column of the bitmap or selection matrix P′ is the length of v′; optionally, the length of v′ and v′ in the matrix are also considered. One of the positions is directly indicated by the first node, while the other is indicated by a bitmap or a selection matrix P′.

[0379] Optionally, in some embodiments, several practical second matrices Q are provided.

[0380] The second matrix Q is an orthogonal matrix. The second node or the first node can predefine a series of second matrices and their indices. When providing the first information, the first node can directly provide the indices of the second matrices. Alternatively, the first node can provide parameters for constructing the second matrix Q, and the second node determines the second matrix Q based on these parameters. The second matrix Q used can be a DFT matrix, a Hadamard matrix, or a matrix obtained by performing a Kronecker product of them.

[0381] (a) DFT matrix.

[0382] The DFT matrix is ​​a unitary matrix, therefore it can be used as the second matrix Q in this scheme. The DFT matrix satisfies the following form:

[0383] Where ω = exp(j2π / K2). Due to the special nature of the DFT matrix structure, in addition to feeding back the index of the DFT matrix, the first node can also directly feed back the type indication of the second matrix Q. The second node can determine the DFT matrix used as Q based on the number of beams K2 and the second matrix type indication in the second parameter configuration information.

[0384] It should be noted that the first information is fed back by the first node, and the first node feeds back Q, which implicitly or explicitly feeds back K2. However, K2 is ultimately determined by the second node (the information related to Q is optional, the type of Q can be completely determined by the first node, but the dimension K2 of Q is determined by the second node).

[0385] When performing perception services, the first node knows the second matrix type indicator and K2, and therefore knows the second matrix Q.

[0386] (b) Hadamard matrix.

[0387] The Hadamard matrix, with its rows and columns mutually orthogonal, is also suitable as the second matrix in this scheme. However, it's important to note that the dimension of the Hadamard matrix must be an integer multiple of 2 or 4. A 2×2 Hadamard matrix can be... For dimension 2 m ×2 m The Hadamard matrices, m = 2, 3, 4, ..., can be generated iteratively using Sylvester's construction method, i.e.

[0388] Therefore, if the Hadamard matrix is ​​used as the second matrix Q, the first information may also include a type indicator for the second matrix Q, an initial 2nd-order Hadamard matrix H2, or its matrix index. After the first node feeds back the type indicator of the second matrix Q and the initial 2nd-order Hadamard matrix H2 or its matrix index i′ to the second node, the second node determines the dimension K2 of the generated Hadamard matrix based on the above information, where K2 is either 2 or a multiple of 4. Then, the second node... Calculate and determine a Hadamard matrix of dimension K2×K2 as the second matrix Q. The table below provides an example of the matrix indices for an initial 2D Hadamard matrix H2:

[0389] (c) Kronecker product of unitary matrices.

[0390] Based on the lemma: "If matrices X and Y are both unitary matrices, then their Kronecker product..." It is also a unitary matrix. "[4] In actual configuration, the second matrix Q can also be determined based on the Kronecker product of the DFT matrix, the Hadamard matrix, and other predefined unitary matrices. For example, in the first information, the first node provides feedback on the type of the second matrix Q (indicating that the second matrix is ​​the Kronecker product of at least one of the Z (Z≥2) DFT matrices and the Hadamard matrix), the initial 2nd order Hadamard matrix H2 or its matrix index, and the order of the Kronecker products of the Z (Z≥2) matrices mentioned above. The second node determines the second matrix Q based on the above information.

[0391] To better understand this application, the following examples will be used to illustrate it in detail:

[0392] In some embodiments, the precoding information is determined by the first node performing a first measurement. Since subsequent sensing and communication integration services are required, the first node needs to obtain the precoding matrix for the sensing function. In other words, the first node needs to know the mapping / association relationship between the precoding or precoding information used for the integrated sensing service and the time-frequency resources and transmit antenna port resources of the second node. The antenna port used for the first measurement may be different from the antenna port used for the integrated sensing service. Therefore, before executing the integrated sensing service, either the second node or the first node needs to determine the mapping / association relationship between the antenna port used to execute the integrated sensing service and the precoding.

[0393] In one implementation, the precoding and its mapping / association with time-frequency resources and antenna port resources are entirely determined by the first node.

[0394] After the precoding information is fed back to the second node, in one implementation, the mapping / association relationship between the time-frequency resources, antenna ports, and precoding used to perform the integrated sensing service is completely determined by the first information fed back by the first node. In this case, the first node needs to feed back at least the following information:

[0395] The index of the perceptual precoding vector or the index of the perceptual precoding matrix, and the index of the communication precoding vector or the index of the communication precoding matrix;

[0396] The index of the quantization coefficients of the linear combination of the perception precoding vectors, and the index of the quantization coefficients of the linear combination of the communication precoding vectors;

[0397] And / or,

[0398] The index of the communication-aware precoding vector or the index of the communication-aware precoding matrix;

[0399] Index of quantization coefficients for linear combinations of communication-aware precoding vectors.

[0400] In addition, the following information needs to be fed back: first instruction information and second instruction information.

[0401] Before executing the integrated sensing service, the second node also needs to send its own antenna port information, physical antenna array information, and the mapping relationship between the antenna port and the physical antenna array to the first node.

[0402] Based on the above information, the second node can uniquely determine the precoding matrix C, and determine the mapping / association relationship between each precoding vector in C and the time-frequency resources and antenna port resources used for the integrated sensing service.

[0403] In one implementation, the precoding and its mapping / association with time-frequency resources and antenna port resources are entirely determined by the second node.

[0404] Since the parameter configuration information of the integrated sensing service is generally determined by the target device or the second node, and the second node can more easily grasp its own antenna port information, physical antenna array information, and mapping relationship information between the antenna port and the physical antenna array, one implementation method can also be that after the first node performs the first measurement based on the second parameter configuration information, it only feeds back the following information:

[0405] The index of the perceptual precoding vector or the index of the perceptual precoding matrix, and the index of the communication precoding vector or the index of the communication precoding matrix;

[0406] The index of the quantization coefficients of the linear combination of the perception precoding vectors, and the index of the quantization coefficients of the linear combination of the communication precoding vectors;

[0407] And / or,

[0408] The index of the communication-aware precoding vector or the index of the communication-aware precoding matrix;

[0409] Index of quantization coefficients for linear combinations of communication-aware precoding vectors.

[0410] Before executing the integrated sensing service, the target device or the second node indicates the first parameter configuration information to the first node. Based on the first parameter configuration information, the first node can determine the mapping / association relationship between the time and frequency resources, antenna port resources and each precoding vector in the integrated sensing service.

[0411] In one implementation, the precoding and the mapping / association relationship between the precoding and time-frequency resources and antenna port resources are jointly determined by the first node and the second node.

[0412] In another implementation, a portion of the mapping / association relationship between time-frequency resources, antenna ports, and precoding used for performing integrated sensing services is determined by a first node, while another portion is determined by a second node. For example, when the first node feeds back second indication information to the second node, the content of the second indication information only includes the mapping / association relationship between precoding information and at least one of the sensing antenna ports, communication antenna ports, and integrated sensing antenna ports. That is, the mapping / association relationship between precoding information or each precoding vector of precoding matrix C and antenna port resources used for integrated sensing services is determined by the first node; the target device or the second node indicates first parameter configuration information to the first node, the first parameter configuration information including the aforementioned mapping / association relationship between precoding information or each precoding vector of precoding matrix C and the second resource mapping / association relationship used for integrated sensing services, i.e., the mapping / association relationship between precoding information or each precoding vector of precoding matrix C and time-frequency resources used for integrated sensing services is determined by the second node.

[0413] Optionally, in some embodiments, for integrated sensing scenarios, the sensing target / sensing area and the communication target (i.e., the first node, such as the terminal) do not necessarily coincide. The precoding matrix is ​​determined by the second node based on the precoding information reported by the first node. At that time, the first node can report the measured value of the first target parameter to assist the second node in determining C.

[0414] Optionally, the first target parameter can be used to evaluate the correlation between any two channels. The higher the correlation between the two channels, the closer the precoding applied to the two channels will be. When the correlation between the two channels is greater than a certain preset threshold t1, the two channels can use the same precoding; conversely, when the correlation between the two channels is less than a certain preset threshold t2, the two channels can use completely different, or even orthogonal, precoding.

[0415] Optionally, the channel used to calculate the first target parameter is obtained through a first measurement. An example of a method for calculating the communication channel and the sensing channel is given below. Assume that after the first measurement, the first node obtains a communication channel estimate as follows: By channel estimation Channel parameter extraction can be performed to extract the multipath parameters of the communication channel. The communication channel multipath can be obtained through a set... It means that α i ,τ i , υ i Let be the complex amplitude, time delay, departure azimuth, departure elevation, arrival azimuth, arrival elevation, and Doppler frequency of the i-th multipath of the communication channel, respectively. The number of multipaths in the communication channel; furthermore, the first node can detect and identify at least one of the first target path, the second target path, the third target path, the fourth target path, and the fifth target path through a first measurement and parameter estimation, wherein the target paths can be set... Let α represent α j ,τ j , υ j These represent the complex amplitude, time delay, departure azimuth, departure elevation, arrival azimuth, arrival elevation, and Doppler frequency of the j-th multipath of the sensing channel. This represents the number of target paths. For any communication channel, it can be reconstructed from part or all of the above communication channel multipath set, i.e. Where L c ′ represents the number of multipath channels selected for reconstruction, f c The carrier frequency is the first measurement frequency; for any sensing channel, it can also be reconstructed from part or all of the above target path set, i.e. Where L s ′ represents the number of multipath signals used for reconstructing the selected sensing channels. Based on the above method, the first node can obtain the measured values ​​of the first target parameters of the communication channel and the sensing channel.

[0416] Optionally, the above method can also be used to calculate the measured value of the first target parameter between any two specified sensing channels, or the measured value of the first target parameter between any two specified communication channels.

[0417] If the first parameter is calculated using channel parameters, a channel parameter vector, or a channel power spectrum, then the first node can directly calculate the measured value of the first target parameter after obtaining the channel parameters or the power spectrum.

[0418] Optionally, the necessary interaction process related to the first target parameter is as follows:

[0419] The first node can obtain the measured values ​​of the first target parameters of the sensing channel and the communication channel through the first measurement, and send them to the second node. The second node determines the precoding matrix C and the mapping / association relationship between its precoding vectors and the time-frequency resources and antenna port resources used for the integrated sensing and communication service based on the measured values ​​of the first target parameters; or, the first node determines the precoding matrix C and the mapping / association relationship between its precoding vectors and the time-frequency resources and antenna port resources used for the integrated sensing and communication service.

[0420] Before the first measurement, the second node sends second parameter configuration information to the first node, which includes target configuration information. If the precoding type is determined by the second node, the target configuration information needs to include: a sixth indication information, which instructs the first node on how to determine the sensing channel and / or communication channel used to calculate the first target parameter.

[0421] If the precoding type is determined by the first node, the target configuration information may include at least one of the following:

[0422] Fifth instruction message;

[0423] Sixth instruction message;

[0424] Target conditions.

[0425] Based on the aforementioned target configuration information, the first node determines the precoding type and the mapping / association relationship between the precoding information or each precoding vector in the precoding matrix C and the time-frequency resources and antenna port resources used for the integrated sensing service.

[0426] Optionally, one implementation may be as follows: the second node sends sensing and / or communication channel indication information to the first node, wherein the sensing channel indication information (i.e., the indication information for indicating the sensing channel in the sixth indication information) may include a target path index, or include indication information for the first node to select a target path, for example, the sensing channel indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0427] The target power range of the target path; the first node selects the target path whose power falls within the target power range to form a sensing channel based on the indication information;

[0428] The target delay range of the target path; the first node selects the target path whose delay falls within the target delay range to form a sensing channel based on the indication information;

[0429] The target angle range of the target path; the first node selects the target path whose angle falls within the target angle range according to the indication information to form a perception channel; the angle includes the departure azimuth angle, the departure pitch angle, the arrival azimuth angle, and the arrival pitch angle;

[0430] The target Doppler frequency range of the target path; the first node selects the target path whose Doppler frequency range falls within the target Doppler frequency range to form a sensing channel based on the indication information;

[0431] Similarly, the communication channel indication information may also include a communication multipath index, or indication information for the first node to select a communication multipath, which will not be elaborated here.

[0432] One implementation can be as follows: The second node sends a target condition to the first node, wherein the target condition includes a first threshold value and a second threshold value (assuming the first threshold value < the second threshold value), and includes the following rules: (a) If the measured value of the first target parameter < the first threshold, the precoding for the integrated sensing service can be composed of communication precoding and sensing precoding, and the communication precoding and sensing precoding are calculated independently based on the communication channel and the sensing channel, respectively; (b) If the first threshold < the measured value of the first target parameter < the second threshold, the precoding for the integrated sensing service can be composed of communication precoding and sensing precoding, and the communication precoding and sensing precoding are jointly calculated based on the communication channel and the sensing channel; (c) If the second threshold < the measured value of the first target parameter, the precoding for the integrated sensing service can be communication-sensing precoding, which is jointly calculated based on the communication channel and the sensing channel. It should be noted that the above rules are just an example, and there can be different precoding determination rules in practice.

[0433] Referring to Figure 8, this application embodiment also provides a perception processing method, as shown in Figure 8, the perception processing method includes:
