[0001] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411906965.7, filed on December 20, 2024, entitled “A Method and Apparatus for Sensing”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Technical Field

[0002] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] This application relates to the field of communications, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for sensing. [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Background Technology

[0003] [Revised according to Detailed Rule 26, 03.07.2026] With the continuous development of global communication technology, the development speed and application of wireless communication technology have surpassed that of wired communication technology, showing a booming development trend. Intelligent transportation equipment, smart home equipment, robots, and other intelligent devices are gradually entering people's daily lives. In the development of technology, various electronic devices (including intelligent devices) can perform wireless measurement, sensing, and positioning based on wireless communication technology. For example, wireless technology can be applied to indoor positioning, keyless entry and start, asset management, human presence detection, and motion perception.

[0004] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] However, in scenarios using wireless technology, such as wireless measurement or sensing, there are problems of long measurement time and low measurement efficiency. How to improve measurement efficiency and reduce measurement time has become a problem that needs to be solved. [Amended according to Rule 26, 2003.07.2026] Summary of the Invention

[0005] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] This application provides a sensing method and apparatus that can improve measurement efficiency and reduce measurement time.

[0006] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In a first aspect, this application provides a sensing method, which can be executed by a second device. Unless otherwise specified, "second device" in this application can refer to a second device (e.g., an electronic device), a component in the second device (e.g., a processor, a chip, or a chip system), or a logic module or software that can implement all or part of the functions of the second device. The method includes: determining a first available frequency list for sensing measurement based on channel state information (CSI) and channel quality, the first available frequency list including one or more of the available frequency points; and transmitting a first measurement signal to a first device on the available frequency point, the first measurement signal being used for sensing measurement.

[0007] [Amended according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that in some frequency hopping measurement and sensing scenarios, such as narrowband frequency hopping measurement and sensing for Sparklink Low Energy (SLE) and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), the sensing measurement process does not need to measure all frequency points; measuring some frequency points is sufficient to meet the sensing accuracy. The sensing method provided in this application can obtain the frequency points required for measurement to meet the sensing accuracy, such as these frequency points which can be called available frequency points. Sensing is performed by sending or receiving signals on the available frequency points. The available frequency points used for sensing measurement in this application can be represented by a first available frequency point table. During the sensing process, since the number of available frequency points in the first available frequency point table is relatively small, it is equivalent to reducing the number of available frequency points for sending and receiving measurement signals, thereby reducing the measurement time and power consumption and improving measurement efficiency.

[0008] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method of determining the first available frequency point table for sensing measurements includes at least one of the following: determining the first available frequency point table by a preset configuration; or, determining the first available frequency point table by CSI and channel quality measured at the local end; or, determining the first available frequency point table by CSI and channel quality measured at the peer end; or, determining the first available frequency point table by a first message from the first device, the first message carrying the first available frequency point table.

[0009] [Amended according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the second device can determine the first available frequency list by using the CSI and channel quality measured by the peer carried in the message sent from the first device. The message from the first device can be a first message or other messages, which are not limited in this application. The first message is at least one of a configuration message, an acknowledgement (ACK) message, or a CSI feedback message. Obtaining the first available frequency list in multiple ways enables the sensing method provided in this application to be applied to a wider range of scenarios.

[0010] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Sensing measurement includes different sensing scenarios such as one-way sensing and two-way sensing. The method provided in this application can be applied to different sensing scenarios. In one possible implementation, in a two-way sensing scenario, the second device receives first sensing data from the first device, which is obtained from a first measurement signal; the second device receives a second measurement signal from the first device and obtains second sensing data based on the second measurement signal. In this scenario, the second device obtains the sensing result of the sensing measurement based on the first and second sensing data; or, in other words, the second device obtains the sensing result based on the second measurement signal and the first sensing data.

[0011] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, in a one-way sensing scenario, the one-way sensing is achieved by a second device obtaining the sensing measurement result. That is, the second device receives a second measurement signal from the first device and obtains the sensing measurement result based on the second measurement signal. Further, the second device obtains second sensing data based on the second measurement signal and obtains the sensing measurement result based on the second sensing data.

[0012] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, in a one-way sensing scenario, the one-way sensing is obtained by the first device to obtain the sensing measurement result, that is, the second device sends a first measurement signal to the first device.

[0013] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] For example, the sensing data (i.e., the first sensing data or the second sensing data) provided in this application includes CSI or data obtained by processing CSI, such as initial CSI (or measured CSI, etc.) or intermediate results of CSI, such as processed subcarriers (which may be subcarriers transformed to other domains, such as the range Doppler domain, etc.), or compressed CSI, etc.

[0014] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] This application expands the application scenarios of the sensing method by providing sensing methods under different sensing scenarios, making the application of the sensing method more widespread.

[0015] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: the second device sending a third signal to the first device on a first available frequency point, the first available frequency point table including the first available frequency point, the third signal being used for synchronization during the initialization phase of sensing measurement.

[0016] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: sending a second message indicating that the first device is synchronized with the initialization phase for a period of K sensing event groups, where K is a non-negative integer. When K > 1, the first device can perform sensing-oriented measurements on available frequency points based on multiple sensing event groups at once, reducing the number of initialization phases. This means multiple sensing event groups can share a single initialization phase, saving overhead and reducing the decrease in sensing accuracy caused by frequent automatic gain control (AGC) in multiple initialization phases, which can lead to discontinuities in the phase and / or amplitude (i.e., at least one of phase or amplitude) of measurement results due to different AGC levels in multiple sensing event groups. Furthermore, the first available frequency point is derived from a first available frequency point table, ensuring that the AGC result of the initialization phase matches the AGC result of subsequent sensing phases, without needing to initialize on channels different from the sensing channel set.

[0017] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the time interval between adjacent sensing event groups in the K sensing event groups is randomized. Using randomized intervals between different sensing event groups can avoid interference between periodically repeating sensing event groups.

[0018] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the sensing event group includes multiple sensing events. Each sensing event corresponds to a measurement interaction (bidirectional measurement) completed by the initiating node and the subsequent node on an available frequency point, or a measurement sent by the initiating node on an available frequency point. Multiple sensing events completed on all available frequency points constitute a sensing event group. In StarFlash SLE, a sensing event group can also be called a single SLE measurement (SLEM). Multiple sensing event groups constitute a set of sensing event groups, also known as a sensing process.

[0019] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: receiving a fourth signal from the first device, the fourth signal including the CSI obtained for every W sensing event groups, where W is a positive integer. When W > 1, the CSI of each of the W sensing event groups can be obtained simultaneously based on measurement signals at one or more available frequency points from multiple sensing event groups. That is, the feedback received by the second device is the CSI of the W sensing event groups fed back together after an initialization phase, eliminating the need for an initialization before each CSI feedback. This reduces the amount of CSI feedback and the initialization phase in sensing measurements, reduces measurement time, and also reduces measurement overhead.

[0020] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: updating the first available frequency point table based on the CSI obtained from the W sensing event groups; and sending a third message to the first device, the third message including the updated first available frequency point table. It should be understood that the first available frequency point table used by the second device should be consistent with that used by the first device; for example, it can be refreshed synchronously, and the available frequency point table should be updated promptly after the measurement of the W sensing event groups. This method allows for timely adjustment of the sensing measurement to meet different sensing needs, making the application of the sensing method more flexible and the measurement results more accurate.

[0021] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In a second aspect, this application provides a sensing method, which can be executed by a first device. Unless otherwise specified, "first device" in this application can refer to a first device (e.g., an electronic device), a component in the first device (e.g., a processor, a chip, or a chip system), or a logic module or software that can implement all or part of the functions of the first device. The method includes: determining a first available frequency point table for sensing measurement based on CSI and channel quality, the first available frequency point table including one or more available frequency points; and receiving a first signal from a second device on the available frequency point, the first signal being used for sensing measurement.

[0022] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the determination of the first available frequency point table for sensing measurements includes at least one of the following: determining the first available frequency point table by a preset configuration; or, determining the first available frequency point table by CSI and channel quality measured at the local end; or, determining the first available frequency point table by CSI and channel quality measured at the peer end; or, determining the first available frequency point table by a third message from the second device, the third message carrying the first available frequency point table.

[0023] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the first signal includes a first measurement signal, and the method further includes: obtaining first sensing data based on the first measurement signal; and sending the first sensing data to the second device.

[0024] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: sending a second measurement signal to the first device on the available frequency point, the second measurement signal being used to obtain the sensing result of the sensing measurement.

[0025] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: obtaining a sensing result of the sensing measurement based on the first measurement signal.

[0028] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the time interval between adjacent sensing event groups in the K sensing event groups is random.

[0090] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In the embodiments of this application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate that they are examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design that is described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be construed as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or design. Specifically, the use of the words "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0091] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In the description of the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more. For example, multiple processing units means two or more processing units; multiple systems means two or more systems.

[0092] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a communication system 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. As shown in Figure 1, the communication system 100 applicable to this embodiment may include multiple devices, such as a first device 10 and a second device 20. The first device 10 and the second device 20 are devices capable of forming a sensing link, or in other words, the node where the first device 10 is located and the node where the second device 20 is located can form a sensing link. For example, the node where the first device 10 is located and the node where the second device 20 is located are both communication sensing (referred to as sensing) nodes. For example, in a one-way sensing scenario where A sends and B receives, the second device 20 can send a signal for sensing measurement, such as a measurement signal (or sensing signal, or sensing measurement signal, etc.). After receiving the measurement signal, the first device 10 can obtain sensing data, such as CSI, based on the signal, and obtain a sensing measurement result (or sensing result or measurement result) based on the sensing data (such as CSI). Alternatively, in a one-way sensing scenario where A transmits and B receives (i.e., node A sends a sensing signal to node B), the first device 10 can send a measurement signal for sensing measurement. After receiving the measurement signal, the second device 20 can obtain the sensing measurement result based on the signal. Here, one-way sensing means that after node A sends a measurement signal to node B, node B does not send a measurement signal back to node A. Alternatively, in a two-way sensing scenario where A transmits and B receives, both the first device 10 and the second device 20 send the measurement signal to the other end and both can obtain CSI (or CSI report, etc.) based on the received measurement signal. The first device 10 or the second device 20 obtains the sensing measurement result based on the CSI measured by its own device and the CSI sent by the other end device. Here, two-way sensing means that after node A sends a measurement signal to node B, node B then sends a measurement signal back to node A, forming an interaction of measurement signals; or, two-way sensing means that after node B sends a measurement signal to node A, node A then sends a measurement signal back to node B, forming an interaction of measurement signals. For example, in SparkLink SLE, SparkLink Basic (SLB), SparkLink Positioning (SLP), BLE, or ultra-wideband (UWB) sensing, interactive bidirectional measurements can be used to stitch narrowband measurements into a large-bandwidth measurement signal, thereby improving sensing resolution and accuracy through the large-bandwidth signal. In one possible implementation, sensing parameter configuration (the name of this configuration is not limited in this embodiment; any parameter used to configure sensing-related parameters can be considered as this sensing parameter configuration) can be used to configure whether the first device 10 should send a CSI report to the second device 20 or the second device 20 should send a CSI report to the first device 10.It should be understood that the sensing parameter configuration can also be used to configure other sensing parameters, such as whether the first device 10 and the second device 20 perform unidirectional or bidirectional sensing, and this application embodiment does not limit this. For example, in a bidirectional sensing scenario, the sensing parameter configuration can be configured such that the second device 20 sends a measurement signal to the first device 10 first. That is, the second device 20 (or the node where the second device 20 is located) can be configured as the first-sending node, and the first device 10 (or the node where the first device 10 is located) can be configured as the second-sending node. In one possible implementation, the sensing parameter configuration can also include the configuration of the CSI feedback direction. For example, the sensing parameter configuration can include an indication for the first device 10 to feed back CSI to the second device 20, or an indication for the second-sending node to send CSI to the first-sending node, or an indication for the first-sending node to send CSI to the second-sending node, etc.

[0104] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application can be applied to different systems.

[0105] [Amended according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In some possible implementations, this sensing method can be applied to short-range wireless communication systems and wireless communication systems that support longer-range transmission. That is, the technical solutions of this application embodiment can be applied to, but are not limited to, short-range wireless communication systems and wireless communication systems that support longer-range transmission (e.g., 1km-18km, over 18km) (e.g., the next-generation SparkLink / NearLink wireless communication system). The short-range wireless communication system can include short-range wireless communication technology (also known as SparkLink 1.0 technology), which has advantages such as ultra-low latency, ultra-high reliability, and precise synchronization, and is suitable for applications in smart cars, smart homes, smart terminals, and smart manufacturing. For example, applications in smart car scenarios include: immersive in-vehicle sound field & noise reduction, wireless interactive projection, and 360° panoramic surround view, which can achieve an immersive interactive experience and improve vehicle safety. Wireless communication systems that support longer transmission distances (such as 1km to 18km) mainly include next-generation StarSpark wireless communication systems, such as StarSpark 2.0 and StarSpark 3.0 wireless communication systems. They are not only suitable for communication scenarios with low latency requirements, such as the aforementioned vehicle communication and industrial control scenarios, but also for communication scenarios with low latency requirements.

[0106] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In some possible implementations, the above-mentioned communication system may be used in conjunction with a mobile communication system, such as including but not limited to fourth-generation (4G) communication systems (e.g., long term evolution (LTE) systems), fifth-generation (5G) communication systems (e.g., new radio (NR) systems), and future mobile communication systems such as sixth-generation (6G) mobile communication systems.

[0107] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In some possible implementations, the sensing method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to wireless local area network (WLAN), narrow band-internet of things (NB-IoT), global system for mobile communications (GSM), enhanced data rate for GSM evolution (EDGE), wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA), code division multiple access 2000 (CDMA2000), time division-synchronization code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA), LTE system, satellite communication, fifth-generation (5G) communication system, sixth-generation (6G) communication system, or new communication systems that will emerge in the future. This application embodiment does not limit the scope of the application.

[0108] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] The devices (including the first device and the second device) provided in the embodiments of this application have wireless communication capabilities. For example, the device can be configured with multiple antennas (or antenna modules), which may include at least one transmitting antenna for transmitting signals and at least one receiving antenna for receiving signals. In addition, each communication device also includes a transmitter chain and a receiver chain. Those skilled in the art will understand that they may all include multiple components related to signal transmission and reception (e.g., processor, modulator, multiplexer, demodulator, demultiplexer, or antenna, etc.). The device can be a network device or a terminal device, which is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0109] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Based on the above communication systems and wireless technologies, the following explanation uses a smart cockpit wireless communication system under the StarFlash technology as an example. If multiple communication domains exist within the vehicle, each domain contains one master node (also called a grant node, or G node) and at least one slave node (also called a terminal node, or T node). The G node can be a node in the communication system that has resource scheduling capabilities and sends control information such as resource management information and / or data scheduling information. The T node can be a node in the communication system that receives the control information such as resource management information and / or data scheduling information sent by the G node and performs data transmission or reception based on this control information. In other words, this communication system can use the master node to schedule slave nodes, enabling data transmission between nodes.

[0110] [Amended according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Passive Entry Passive Start (PEPS) is an example of in-vehicle wireless positioning applications. In PEPS, users do not need a key; the in-vehicle positioning system can locate the user's car key or mobile phone to automatically lock or unlock the doors. In one possible scenario, the anchor points of the in-vehicle positioning system can also be reused for wireless sensing, such as sensing a person's kicking motion at the trunk to automatically open or close the trunk upon detection. This PEPS can be implemented based on StarFlash wireless communication technology.

[0111] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application can be used in vehicle-mounted wireless positioning scenarios (e.g., PEPS), indoor and outdoor positioning scenarios (or ranging scenarios or sensing scenarios), and can also be used in other wide-area wireless communication or local wireless communication scenarios. In the embodiments of this application, the steps for achieving positioning, ranging, angle measurement, or sensing are similar. Any of the terms "positioning", "ranging", "angle measurement", "measurement", or "sensing" can refer to "positioning, ranging, angle measurement, measurement, or sensing".

[0112] [Amended according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In SLE or BLE, channel sounding (CS) requires measurement (also known as communication measurement) or sensing (also known as sensing measurement) on all available frequency points. One example is that all available frequency points in SLE are 79 frequency points in the 2.4GHz band. On these 79 frequency points, a first device and a second device respectively complete bidirectional measurement interactions, and then the measurement results (i.e., CSI) obtained from these 79 frequency points are jointly processed across multiple frequency points to achieve bandwidth splicing. Another example is that the first device or the second device completes unidirectional measurement interactions on the 79 frequency points, and then the CSI obtained from these 79 frequency points is jointly processed across multiple frequency points to achieve bandwidth splicing.

[0113] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] For example, in the scenario where SLE performs sensing, measurement methods such as linear frequency hopping and random frequency hopping can be supported. For instance, if there is no preset (or predefined) available frequency point table (or available channel table) for similar communication or communication measurement, SLE maps the obtained frequency point index to the available frequency point table and finally outputs the mapped frequency point. The available frequency point table first includes the valid frequency points obtained after channel quality estimation. That is, the available frequency point table can be refreshed according to input parameters, such as channel quality. When the quality of one or more channels deteriorates, the corresponding frequency point in the available frequency point table becomes unavailable (or unusable frequency point), and the G node or sensing control node (first-sending node or second-sending node) sends the updated available frequency point table to the sensing node. For example, the available frequency point table can be arranged in ascending order. The following example illustrates a bidirectional sensing measurement (or measurement of a sensing event group) in SLE. This example can be categorized as follows: the second device is the initiator (or initiator), and the first device is the responder (or responder). The steps include: an initialization phase, bidirectional measurement of multi-frequency phase (or CSI), and joint processing of the measurement results. The initialization phase is used for timing and frequency synchronization between the initiator and responder. It is understood that an initialization phase precedes the measurement of each event group, where the initiator and responder perform AGC training, timing, and frequency synchronization. It should be understood that a sensing event group includes multiple sensing events. One sensing event corresponds to a measurement interaction (bidirectional measurement) completed by the initiator and responder on an available frequency, or the initiator sending a measurement to the responder on an available frequency. After multiple sensing events are completed on all available frequencies, it is called a sensing event group. In StarSpark SLE, a sensing event group can also be called a single SLEM. Multiple sensing event groups constitute a set of sensing event groups, also known as a sensing process.

[0114] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Multi-frequency phase (or CSI) bidirectional measurement includes a first device and a second device performing bidirectional measurements on a first frequency (in this embodiment, the available communication frequency is referred to as the first frequency, or the full frequency, such as the first frequency including 79 frequency points), and completing the measurement of all available frequency points based on pseudo-random frequency hopping or sequential frequency hopping. If the sensing parameter configuration includes a configuration or indication for the first device to feed back CSI to the second device, the first device can send the measurement results (such as phase information or CSI) of the first frequency obtained by measurement to the second device. The second device can perform joint processing based on the received measurement results (e.g., for CSI transmission, it is equivalent to the first device transmitting the CSI obtained on 79 frequency points to the second device through the SLE automatic call back (ACB) link) and the measurement results obtained locally (such as phase information or CSI) to obtain the bidirectional sensing measurement results.

[0115] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] This example illustrates the relevant parameters. For instance, Figure 2 is a channel diagram of SLE frequency hopping measurement provided in an embodiment of this application. Referring to Figure 2, each measurement (i.e., each SLEM) uses frequency hopping from 2402MHz to 2480MHz. SLE uses a 1MHz or 2MHz narrowband signal for frequency hopping measurement. When the frequency interval of the measurement is 1MHz, the 79 frequency points need to be measured sequentially by frequency hopping. For example, a sensing process includes: sending a measurement frame for initialization on a 2.4GHz channel (e.g., 2408MHz), and sending frames for measuring signals on all remaining channels (e.g., the channels corresponding to the other 78 frequency points). The initialization phase may include AGC configuration of the second device and the first device, time and frequency synchronization, etc. It should be understood that the initialization phase can also be called an initialization phase event, initialization synchronization, initialization phase event, etc., and can be used for AGC and time-frequency synchronization.

[0116] [Revised according to Detailed Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Statistics show that this method of performing communication or sensing measurements using a single frequency point (e.g., 79 frequency points) results in a measurement duration of 30ms per SLEM, incurring high measurement overhead (e.g., power consumption, measurement time, CSI feedback). For a specific measurement requirement, such as measuring the presence of someone or performing breathing measurements, taking a 10Hz refresh rate as an example, the total measurement time (air interface measurement time) within 1 second reaches as high as 300ms. This can be understood as the large number of frequency points being measured (each frequency point corresponds to one channel, i.e., a large number of channels being measured) leading to long measurement times and low measurement efficiency. Furthermore, the CSI feedback from the first device to the second device also requires completing each SLEM across 79 frequency points. In other words, a single SLEM requires transmitting over 300 bytes, resulting in a large amount of feedback data and high measurement overhead. In addition, there is an initialization phase in each measurement event group. That is, because there are 79 frequency points to be measured, and each frequency point measurement requires an AGC, the AGC of the initialization node is relatively frequent. Frequent AGC in the initialization phase will degrade the sensing accuracy.

[0117] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In order to solve the problem that the measurement time is long and the measurement efficiency is low due to the large number of frequency points to be measured, this application provides a sensing method that can meet the characteristics of sensing accuracy without all measurement frequency points, such as in the perception of human presence and breathing, based on the characteristic that the demand for available frequency points is not high. This reduces the number of available frequency points in sensing measurement and improves measurement efficiency.

[0118] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Figure 3 is a flowchart illustrating a sensing method provided in an embodiment of this application. The method is illustrated using a second device (e.g., a processor, chip, or chip system) as an example. This second device can be an electronic device such as a mobile phone, car, or car key, or it can be a device or component within these electronic devices. This embodiment of the application does not limit the scope of the method. As shown in Figure 3, the method includes S101 and S102.

[0119] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S101, the second device determines a first available frequency point table for sensing measurements based on CSI and channel quality, the first available frequency point table including one or more available frequency points.

[0120] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that in different sensing scenarios, the first available frequency point table can be obtained by at least one of the first or second devices based on CSI and channel quality. For example, the second device can determine whether a frequency point can be used for sensing measurement from multiple frequency points based on the CSI and channel quality of each frequency point, and set the frequency points that can be used for sensing measurement into the first available frequency point table. In one implementation, the second device can first determine whether a frequency point can be used for sensing measurement based on the channel quality of each frequency point, such as judging whether the channel quality meets the channel quality threshold, and determine a preliminary available frequency point table (e.g., named Table S). Then, based on the CSI measured on the frequency points of Table S, a final available frequency point table (e.g., named Table F or the first available frequency point table) is obtained. When the sensing accuracy of Table F is similar to the sensing accuracy of Table S, Table F is determined as the final available frequency point table and sent to the counterpart node, such as the first device, for subsequent sensing measurement. Simultaneously selecting channel quality and CSI as the available frequency point table for sensing (or obtaining the table F based on both channel quality and CSI) not only ensures high channel quality for the available frequency points (avoiding frequency points that are interfered with or deeply faded), but also further reduces the number of frequency points to be measured based on the measured CSI, thereby further reducing the overhead and power consumption of sensing measurements, while ensuring that the sensing accuracy is almost not reduced.

[0121] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Optionally, the second device can obtain the first available frequency point table in different ways. The first available frequency point table may include N available frequency points, where N is a positive integer. In this application embodiment, the first available frequency point table can be obtained through pre-configuration, receiving instructions from other devices, etc.

[0122] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Taking the StarShine SLE Sensing System as an example, assuming that both the second device and the first device are SLE devices (or SLE sensing nodes) in the StarShine SLE Sensing System, in SLE communication, the second available frequency point table (also called a channel map) of the data channel is usually determined based on channel quality. In one possible example, this second available frequency point table includes M available frequency points, such as M being 79, etc. The SLE device can obtain N available frequency points for sensing measurements based on the obtained second available frequency point table, or based on the M available frequency points and CSI, and N≤M. In some possible scenarios, such as sensing whether there is someone in a room or car, sensing human breathing rate or respiratory health, and sensing whether there is an infant in the car or whether there is a kicking motion to open the trunk, the number of N may be small, such as N being equal to 5.

[0123] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] S102: The second device sends a first measurement signal to the first device on an available frequency point. The first measurement signal is used for sensing measurement.

[0124] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] For example, if the second device needs to send a measurement signal for SLEM once, and N=5, then the second device can complete the measurement of CSI required for a sensing event group by sending the first measurement signal to the first device on 5 available frequency points. It is no longer necessary to send measurement signals on 79 frequency points to complete the measurement of CSI required for a sensing event group. The embodiments of this application can perform sensing by sending measurement signals on available frequency points. While maintaining the sensing performance, it reduces the number of available frequency points that need to send measurement signals, and reduces the measurement time and power consumption of a single measurement (such as a single CSI).

[0125] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Optionally, in actual use scenarios, the first available frequency point table can be a frequency point in the perceived available frequency point table obtained based on the previously perceived CSI results. Alternatively, it can be an available frequency point (or simply a frequency point) in the first available frequency point table obtained based on CSI and channel quality. Taking the SLE scenario as an example, the first available frequency point table can be determined by the SLE sensing node (including T nodes, G nodes, etc.; the first device provided in this application embodiment can be a T node or a G node, and the second device can be a T node or a G node) based on at least one of the measured or received CSI and channel quality results. For example, the second device can determine the first available frequency point table by a preset configuration; or, by the CSI and channel quality measured at the local end; or, by the CSI and channel quality measured at the peer end; or, by a first message from the first device, where the first message carries the first available frequency point table. Since SLE sensing relies on the CSI of each frequency point, and channel quality reflects factors such as interference intensity and frequency-selective fading, the SLE node determines the specific channel (frequency point) required for sensing based on the CSI among channels (i.e., frequencies) that meet the channel quality requirements. It then configures the channels to be measured during the sensing process using a table of available sensing frequencies. This results in a smaller number of available frequencies for sensing, effectively reducing the number of available frequencies used to transmit measurement signals, thereby reducing measurement time and power consumption, and improving measurement efficiency.

[0126] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Below, embodiments of this application will describe the sensing method through different scenarios of sensing between a first device and a second device. It should be understood that the first device and the second device may support or use the same wireless sensing technology, including StarFlash, Wireless Fidelity (WiFi), Bluetooth, UWB, or Purple Bee, etc.

[0127] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] One possible way to achieve this is that the first device and the second device obtain the sensing results through bidirectional sensing.

[0128] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Figure 4 is a flowchart illustrating another sensing method provided in an embodiment of this application. This method is executed by a first device and a second device. The method is illustrated using the example where the second device is the initiator and the first device is the reflector, but this is not a limitation. The case where the sensing parameters are configured such that the second device is the initiator and the first device is the reflector can be implemented with reference to this example, and will not be elaborated further. This method includes steps S201 to S212.

[0129] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S201: In the previous L SLEMs, the second device receives measurement frames on multiple frequency points of the available frequency point table and measures the local CSI.

[0130] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The first L times can be understood as the first many times. Multiple frequency points can be understood as multiple frequency points in the available frequency point table (also known as the second available frequency point table, etc.). For example, multiple frequency points can be all frequency points in the second available frequency point table. All frequency points can be named the first frequency point, such as 79 frequency points.

[0131] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S202: The second device receives the peer CSI measured by the first device at the multiple frequency points in the previous L SLEMs.

[0132] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In this embodiment of the application, for ease of distinction, the CSI measured by the second device in S201 is referred to as the local CSI, and the CSI measured by the first device is referred to as the peer CSI, but this is not limited by name. That is, the peer CSI can be regarded as the CSI measured by the first device in the previous L SLEMs by receiving measurement frames on multiple frequency points (such as 79 frequency points). The first device sends this peer CSI to the second device.

[0133] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Optionally, the local CSI may also be the in-phase quadrature (IQ) components of the CSI measured for the measurement frame.

[0134] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the method of obtaining CSI by bidirectional sensing described in S201 and S202 is only an example. In this example, the first device sends the measured CSI to the second device for processing. In other implementation scenarios, the second device can also send the measured CSI to the first device for processing. The processing method is the same as in this example and will not be elaborated further.

[0135] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S203: The second device obtains the first available frequency point table based on the local CSI, the peer CSI, and the channel quality.

[0136] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] For example, after some testing and calculation, it can be seen that in some sensing scenarios, such as sentinel mode sensing, breathing sensing scenarios, or presence sensing scenarios (such as sensing whether a user exists), using a small number of available sensing frequencies (e.g., about 10 available frequencies for sensing measurement) is sufficient to meet the sensing requirements. Therefore, including this small number of available sensing frequencies (i.e., available frequencies) in the first available frequency table ensures that the sensing accuracy meets the requirements.

[0137] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Optionally, the first available frequency point table (also called the sensing available frequency point table or Table F, etc., the name of the frequency point table is not limited in this application embodiment) can be obtained in various ways. One example is that the second device obtains the first available frequency point table according to a preset configuration. For example, in a two-way sensing scenario, based on historically measured CSI and channel quality, the sensing available frequency points are obtained from the first frequency points (such as the 79 frequency points provided in the example above), and the first available frequency point table is formed based on the sensing available frequency points. It should be understood that the first available frequency point table provided in this application embodiment may include available frequency points, or may include the channels corresponding to the available frequency points, or the first available frequency point table may include available frequency points and the channels corresponding to each available frequency point, etc. In some possible implementation scenarios, the first available frequency point table may be implemented in the form of a bitmap (such as using an 80-bit bitmap) or a table. The form of the first available frequency point table is not limited in this application embodiment. Similarly, the second available frequency point table can refer to the form of the first available frequency point table, etc. For example, the second available frequency point table includes 79 frequency points, and the first available frequency point table can also include the same 79 frequency points, but indicate the sensed available frequency points therein. Alternatively, the first available frequency point table uses an 80-bit bitmap and indicates that the 1st, 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th, and 79th frequency points are sensed available frequency points, etc. The embodiments of this application do not limit the form of the first available frequency point table, as long as it can indicate the sensed available frequency points.

[0138] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Another example is that before performing the sensing, the second device measures the CSI and channel quality of all frequency points, such as 79 frequency points, and selects the frequency points for sensing measurements to obtain the first available frequency point table. For example, based on the CSI and channel quality required for sensing, the second device selects a portion of available frequency points from the 79 frequency points as the first available frequency point table, such as selecting 5 frequency points or the corresponding channels of 5 frequency points to obtain the first available frequency point table. For example, in a two-way sensing scenario, the second device can obtain the first available frequency point table based on its local CSI and channel quality, and the peer CSI and channel quality from the first device. Taking the SLE scenario as an example, since SLE sensing relies on the CSI of each frequency point, and channel quality reflects channel quality factors such as interference intensity and frequency-selective fading of frequency points, the SLE node determines the specific channel (i.e., available frequency point) required for sensing based on the CSI among channels (i.e., available frequency points) whose channel quality meets the requirements. It then configures the channels to be measured during the sensing process using a first available frequency point table. In other words, available frequency points or channels for sensing can be obtained through CSI and channel quality for sensing measurements. This example corresponds to a scheme in a two-way sensing scenario where the second device calculates the first available frequency point table based on its local CSI and channel quality, and the peer's CSI and channel quality. Furthermore, another example is included in the two-way sensing scenario where the first device calculates the first available frequency point table based on its local CSI and channel quality, and the peer's CSI and channel quality. In this case, the first device can provide the first available frequency point table to the second device via a first message, and the second device receives the first message from the first device, which includes the first available frequency point table. Optionally, the first message is at least one of a configuration message, an ACK message, or a CSI feedback message.

[0139] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Optionally, if the second device obtains the first available frequency list through CSI and channel quality, the second device may also inform the first device of the first available frequency list through a second message to facilitate the alignment of measurement signal transmission and reception. Optionally, the second message may be at least one of a configuration message, an acknowledgment (ACK) message, or a CSI feedback message.

[0140] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Optionally, the available frequency points in the first available frequency point table can be arranged in a preset order, such as the available frequency points can be arranged in ascending order, or the available frequency points can be arranged in descending order, etc.

[0141] [According to Rule 26, amended 03.07.2026] S204. The second device selects a first available frequency point from the first available frequency point table. The first available frequency point is used for the initialization phase of the sensing measurement.

[0142] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] By selecting a channel (or frequency point) from the first available frequency point table for initialization, the AGC result in the initialization phase can match the AGC result in the subsequent sensing phase, effectively solving the problem of initialization on a channel that is completely different from the sensing channel set in some scenarios.

[0143] [According to Rule 26, amended 03.07.2026] S205, the second device sends a third signal to the first device on the first available frequency point, the third signal being used for synchronization during the initialization phase of the sensing measurement.

[0144] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The first available frequency point table includes the first available frequency point.

[0145] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] For example, during the initialization phase of SLE, the third signal transmitted on the first available frequency point can be used for AGC configuration, time synchronization and frequency synchronization. In BLE channel sounding technology, the third signal can be used for initial synchronization (i.e., mode 0, mode-0), etc.

[0146] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] For example, the third signal may include measurement frame type 3. The format of measurement frame type 3 can be referred to the examples in Tables 1 and 2, and can be used in the initialization phase of measurement, including AGC configuration of the second device and the first device, time and frequency synchronization, etc. Assuming that the second device is the first node and the first device is the second node, the measurement frame type 3 of the second device refers to Table 1, and the measurement frame type 3 of the first device refers to Reference Table 1b.

[0147] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 1

[0148] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 2

[0149] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] One possible implementation is that the synchronization signal is generated according to the logical link identifier (LLID) in the broadcast frame, extended broadcast frame, and response frame, and the generation method is not limited.

[0150] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Optionally, the initialization stage provided in this application embodiment can be used at the beginning of each sensing event group (e.g., in the SLE scenario, the sensing event group can be called SLEM), or it can be configured to be used at the beginning of K sensing event groups (e.g., SLEM), where K is a non-negative integer. For example, the value of K can be different depending on the sensing environment. For instance, K can indicate the number of SLEM cycles for AGC training or AGC adjustment during the sensing measurement process. For example, in a relatively quiet sensing environment, such as in a breathing sensing scenario like breathing training or daily breathing detection, where the user and device need to remain as still as possible, a larger value of K can be selected. That is, in the sensing measurement required to obtain the sensing result, the number of refreshes of the AGC gear can be less, and the measurement result with the required accuracy can still be obtained. In a more dynamic sensing environment, such as when the user is moving or the vehicle is moving, the value of K can be smaller, and the AGC needs to be refreshed more times to adapt to a larger dynamic range of sensing signal changes and meet the sensing requirements. In other words, the larger the rate of change of the sensing channel, the smaller K can be selected, that is, the value of K is dynamically configured according to the rate of change of the sensing channel.

[0151] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] For example, the second device may send a second message to the first device on the first available frequency point. The second message may be the sensing configuration message provided in the embodiments of this application, which is used to indicate that the first device performs an initialization phase synchronization with the first device in a period of K sensing event groups.

[0152] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In one possible implementation, the indication information for a sensing available frequency point table can be Table 3, Narrowband Frequency Hopping Sensing Frequency Point Table Configuration Update Indication - 2.4GHz (i.e., the Narrowband Frequency Hopping Sensing Frequency Point Table Configuration Update Indication corresponding to 2.4GHz). The first message provided in this application embodiment can be a narrowband frequency hopping sensing configuration message.

[0154] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Table 4 is a signaling description and meaning of the signaling fields in Table 3. That is, Table 4 includes the signaling description of the narrowband frequency hopping sensing frequency point table configuration update indication - 2.4GHz. The frequency point tables provided in the various examples of the embodiments of this application may include a first available frequency point table, etc.

[0155] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 4

[0156] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In the narrowband frequency hopping sensing configuration (or message) of StarFlash SLE, an indication of the initialization phase period R and the CSI feedback period W is added. For example, the second device can indicate this to the first device, and the first device can feed back a fourth signal based on this indication. This fourth signal carries the CSI for each W sensing event group. The indication of the initialization phase period R and the CSI feedback period W sent by the second device can be found in Table 5, which includes the narrowband frequency hopping sensing configuration.

[0157] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 5

[0158] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Table 6 is a signaling description and meaning of the signaling fields in Table 5. In other words, Table 6 includes the signaling description of narrowband frequency hopping awareness configuration.

[0159] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 6

[0160] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In Table 6, since receiver AGC is adjusted during each initialization phase, AGC is performed once every K sensing event groups, reducing the frequency of AGC occurrence, avoiding the adverse effects of AGC adjustment on the measurement CSI, and improving sensing accuracy. When the CSI feedback period W>1, the CSI of multiple sensing event groups can be aggregated and transmitted in one frame, avoiding the overhead of transceiver switching intervals, frame headers, etc., and improving the transmission efficiency of CSI.

[0161] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] S206: The second device sends a first measurement signal to the first device on N available frequency points.

[0162] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the example in Figure 4 takes the second device calculating the sensing result based on the locally measured CSI (which may be referred to as the second CSI) and the CSI sent by the first device (which may be referred to as the first CSI) as an example. In the example where the first device calculates the sensing result based on the locally measured CSI and the CSI sent by the first device, the second device may send a first signal to the first device. The first signal may include the first measurement signal and the second CSI obtained by the second device. The first device obtains the sensing result based on the first measurement signal and the second CSI.

[0163] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The type of measurement frame carried on the first measurement signal can be measurement frame type 1 and measurement frame type 2. The format of measurement frame type 1 can be referred to the example in Table 3, and the format of measurement frame type 2 can be referred to the example in Table 4.

[0164] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 7

[0165] [Revised according to Detailed Rules 26, 2003.07.2026] Table 8

[0166] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] For example, when K is greater than 1, it can be considered a single initialization, covering multiple SLEMs, which can further reduce the average measurement time of a single SLEM. For example, after reducing the number of sensing measurement frequencies (i.e., available frequencies) (e.g., replacing the second available frequency table with the first available frequency table, reducing the number of available frequencies from 79 to 10), based on detection data in some scenarios, the measurement time of a single SLEM can be reduced from 30ms to 3.8ms, and one initialization phase can cover at least 8 SLEMs (i.e., K=8). This sensing method can reduce the number of times the initialization phase occurs and reduce overhead. Moreover, the refresh rate is one of the core parameters that determines the sensing accuracy. For example, in scenarios that detect breathing or movement, the refresh rate needs to meet a certain threshold in order to achieve the required sensing accuracy. Therefore, the sensing method provided in this application provides the possibility of multiple SLEMs sharing the same initialization phase, which greatly reduces the measurement time and power consumption of a single SLEM. Within the same time period, the number of SLEMs is increased, and the sensing frequency (refresh rate) is higher, such as from tens of Hz to hundreds of Hz, which makes it easier to meet the measurement requirements of scenarios such as breathing detection.

[0167] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] For example, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a sensing process provided in an embodiment of this application. The process takes Star Flash SLE as an example and includes the initialization stage of SLE and a bidirectional measurement SLEM bidirectional sensing. As shown in Figure 5, after the initialization channel is configured by the narrowband sensing configuration message, the second device (first node) and the first device (second node) complete the AGC configuration (or training), time synchronization and frequency synchronization of the initialization stage based on measurement frame type 3 (refer to Table 1) and measurement frame type 3 (refer to Table 2). Then, based on measurement frame type 1 or type 2, bidirectional measurement is performed on the available frequency points indicated by the first available frequency point table. A bidirectional measurement is completed on the available frequency points indicated by the first available frequency point table, which is a SLEM.

[0168] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S207. The first device receives the first measurement signal on N available frequency points.

[0169] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S208. The first device obtains the first CSI based on the first measurement signal.

[0170] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the first device can feed back CSIs of W measurement event groups each time. When W > 1, the first device can obtain W CSIs at a time based on the measurement signals of multiple measurement event groups at N available frequency points. During feedback, these W CSIs are fed back to the second device together after an initialization phase. That is, it is no longer necessary to perform an initialization before feeding back the CSIs of each measurement event group, effectively reducing the amount of CSI feedback from sensing measurements.

[0171] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Figure 6a is a perception flowchart of each SLEM having an initialization phase provided in the embodiments of this application, and Figure 6b is a perception flowchart of multiple SLEMs having an initialization phase provided in the embodiments of this application. Referring to Figure 6a, if the perception parameters are configured with a first available frequency point table, named First Available Frequency Point Table 1, First Available Frequency Point Table 1 becomes effective. Referring to the example in Figure 4, the second device can select a frequency point (i.e., the channel corresponding to that frequency point) from the first available frequency point table 1 to perform the initialization phase. After the initialization phase, it completes a bidirectional measurement on the available frequency points (such as N available frequency points) indicated by the first available frequency point table 1, that is, completes one SLEM (named SLEM 1). The first device measures the CSI on the available frequency points indicated by the first available frequency point table 1 and feeds it back to the second device through an ACK message. This process continues until the Qth SLEM is completed. The first available frequency point table configured with the sensing parameters is refreshed to the first available frequency point table 2. After the first available frequency point table 2 takes effect, the available frequency points indicated in the first available frequency point table 2 are used to continue bidirectional sensing with reference to the previous steps (including the initialization phase, SLEM and CSI feedback) until the Q+Pth SLEM is completed, where Q and P are both positive integers.

[0172] [Corrected according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Referring to Figure 6b, if the sensing parameters configure a first available frequency point table, named First Available Frequency Point Table 1, then First Available Frequency Point Table 1 becomes effective. Referring to the example in Figure 4, the second device can select a frequency point (i.e., the channel corresponding to that frequency point) from First Available Frequency Point Table 1 for initialization. After initialization, a measurement signal is sent on the available frequency point indicated by First Available Frequency Point Table 1 to complete Q SLEMs. After the first device measures Q CSIs on the available frequency point indicated by First Available Frequency Point Table 1, it sends an ACK message back to the second device. This process continues until the first available frequency point table configured by the sensing parameters is refreshed to First Available Frequency Point Table 2. After First Available Frequency Point Table 2 becomes effective, subsequent bidirectional sensing is also implemented by referring to this step.

[0173] [Corrected according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Combining Figures 6a and 6b, and the number of available frequency points indicated in the first available frequency point table (which is less than the number of available frequency points in the second available frequency point table), it can be seen that in the sensing method where multiple SLEMs share a single initialization phase, the duration of a single SLEM measurement is reduced, resulting in a higher sensing refresh rate and making it easier to meet the refresh rate threshold of the sensing scenario. Furthermore, sharing a single initialization phase with multiple SLEMs effectively reduces the number of initialization phases. Reducing the number of initialization phases improves sensing accuracy because it reduces the number of times the first device (receiver) performs AGC configuration at the beginning of SLEM transmission, thus reducing the number of AGC changes. This prevents the first device from generating different amplitude and phase gains for different SLEM sensing data over time, ensuring consistency in the received gain across multiple consecutive SLEMs. This helps maintain consistent AGC amplitude and phase of CSI measured at different times, ultimately improving sensing accuracy and precision. Moreover, feeding back CSI after multiple SLEMs effectively reduces CSI feedback overhead and saves power.

[0174] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] S209. The first device sends a second signal to the second device on N available frequency points. The second signal includes a second measurement signal and a first CSI.

[0175] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] The second measurement signal performs the first CSI feedback, which can be feedback to available frequencies in the first available frequency table. When the number of available frequencies in the first available frequency table is small, the amount of CSI data fed back also decreases, which is equivalent to reducing the feedback overhead of the first CSI and saving power consumption.

[0176] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] For example, in the scenario of narrowband frequency hopping measurement of SLE, the first CSI, such as the CSI report, is carried in the narrowband frequency hopping measurement information of SLE and reported as a message. The frequency points and order of the CSIs in the CSI report can correspond one-to-one with the available frequency points indicated by the first available frequency point table. For example, the first available frequency point table uses an 80-bit bitmap to indicate that the 1st, 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th and 79th frequency points are available frequency points for sensing measurement, and the CSI report fed back by the first device can include the CSIs measured on the 1st, 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th and 79th available frequency points.

[0177] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that, in the embodiments of this application, the first CSI fed back by the first device may include the CSI of each available frequency point or data on the CSI of each available frequency point that has been processed accordingly. For example, the first CSI may include CSI (also called initial CSI, measured CSI); or, the first CSI may include intermediate results of CSI, such as CSI with half of the subcarriers processed (which may be subcarriers transformed to other domains, such as the range Doppler domain, etc.), or compressed CSI; or, the first CSI may include a sensing result after processing the CSI of each available frequency point, such as whether someone is detected. The embodiments of this application use the example of the first CSI fed back by the first device including the CSI measured on the available frequency points (such as N available frequency points) in the first available frequency point table for illustration, but this is not limited.

[0178] [According to Rule 26, amended 03.07.2026] S210, the second device receives the second signal.

[0179] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the second signal may include the second measurement signal, or it may include the first CSI fed back by the first device, such as the CSI obtained by the first device based on W groups of sensing events. Alternatively, the first device may send the second measurement signal through the second signal and send the CSI obtained based on W groups of sensing events through the fourth signal, and the second device may receive the CSI sent by the peer based on the fourth signal. Figure 4 provided in the embodiments of this application is only an example, and the embodiments of this application do not limit the CSI signal carried. When the fourth signal is used to transmit CSI, it can be an SLE linked asynchronous link for CSI transmission with data frame retransmission, that is, the CSI is carried in the asynchronous data link frame that feeds back the CSI (such as the fourth signal).

[0180] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S211, The second device obtains the second CSI and the first CSI based on the second signal.

[0181] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The second device can obtain the first CSI based on the first CSI carried in the second signal. The second device can also obtain the CSI of K sensing event groups, i.e. the second CSI, from the measurement signals at N available frequency points.

[0182] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S212, The second device performs joint processing based on the second CSI and the first CSI to obtain the sensing result.

[0183] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] This application embodiment takes Star Flash SLE narrowband sensing as an example. By adding a sensing frequency point table (i.e., the first available frequency point table) to indicate the available frequency points for sensing, the number of available frequency points used for measurement is reduced. This allows each sensing event to be measured on fewer available frequency points, thus achieving the sensing requirements. This is equivalent to reducing the measurement duration and power consumption of a single CSI while maintaining the sensing performance. It should be understood that this application embodiment also provides a method for K SLEMs to share one initialization phase, as shown in Figure 6b, where K = Q, or K = P. A CSI feedback message, such as ACK, can contain multiple CSI feedbacks, reducing the frame header overhead of the CSI feedback message. Moreover, reducing the number of initialization phases used for sensing is equivalent to further changing the one initialization phase corresponding to one SLEM to one initialization phase corresponding to multiple SLEMs after reducing the duration of a single SLEM, further reducing measurement and CSI feedback overhead. For sensing scenarios, the number of initialization stages in the sensing and measurement process has been reduced, improving sensing accuracy and reducing overhead and power consumption caused by the initialization stage.

[0184] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that in the sensing method shown in Figure 4, sensing parameters can be configured to specify which sensing node sends a signal to which other sensing node first, and which sensing node provides feedback (or the feedback direction of CSI needs to be configured). Furthermore, referring to Figures 6a and 6b, the sensing parameter configuration can also configure the first available frequency table (or refresh the first available frequency table). For example, referring to the example in Figure 7, the first available frequency table 1 is carried in the SLE's sensing parameter configuration message and indicates that it is effective in SLEM 1 to SLEM K. When SLEM K ends, the node responsible for sensing configuration, such as the node corresponding to any of the first or second devices, can refresh the first available frequency table by resending the sensing parameter configuration message, such as refreshing it from the first available frequency table 1 to the first available frequency table 2, and indicating that the refreshed available frequencies will be applied to the subsequent P SLEMs. By indicating in the sensing parameter configuration message which SLEMs are valid in the current first available frequency point table, and which SLEMs are valid in the subsequent updated first available frequency point table, the first available frequency point table can be updated in a timely manner according to the channel status and CSI, making the sensing measurement more accurate and adaptable to channel changes.

[0185] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Optionally, during the sensing process, the first available frequency point table can be refreshed periodically or irregularly, such as refreshing the available frequency points in it to the first frequency point. The first frequency point refers to all available frequency points in communication, such as the 79 frequency points provided in the example above. Alternatively, the available frequency points can be refreshed to the first frequency point periodically or irregularly. For example, full-frequency point sensing can be inserted periodically, that is, every M SLEMs, full-frequency point sensing is achieved by refreshing the available frequency points in the first available frequency point table to the first frequency point, thereby completing the operation of periodically inserting full-frequency point sensing event groups, where M is a positive integer. Alternatively, during the sensing process, the available frequency points in the first available frequency point table can be refreshed to the first frequency point according to sensing or measurement needs, such as refreshing 10 available frequency points to 79, thereby completing the insertion of full-frequency point sensing event groups as needed. Inserting full frequency points into the first available frequency point table can effectively solve the problem that items requiring full-frequency point measurement cannot be effectively measured during the sensing process. It can save on transmission costs while also meeting the detection requirements of all frequency points.

[0186] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] For example, the first device may indicate to the second device, in the above example, the refreshed first available frequency point provided by sending a third message, such as the third message including the updated first available frequency point table.

[0187] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that in the case of communication measurement, it is generally considered that when the number of available frequency points is less than 15, the interference will be too great due to insufficient available frequency points, and random frequency hopping will be stopped. In the sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application, the number of available frequency points in the first available frequency point table can be less than 15, and these few available frequency points can still be used for sensing. In order to reduce interference, the available frequency points indicated in the first available frequency point table provided in the embodiments of this application can be obtained by random selection, that is, they can be randomly obtained. One example is that the first frequency point is divided into multiple intervals, which can be called frequency point intervals, and an available frequency point is selected in each frequency point interval. For example, in the scenario of sensing the presence of a user, 10 frequency points are needed. The 79 frequency points can be divided into 10 frequency point intervals, and a frequency point is randomly selected in each interval as an available frequency point. Optionally, the frequency point intervals can be evenly divided or divided according to other preset rules, which is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0188] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Another example is to use a random frequency hopping algorithm among 79 frequency points to obtain a first available frequency point table. For example, a random frequency hopping measurement pattern can be generated for sensing to obtain a first available frequency point table, and the randomization seed of the random measurement pattern can be sent to the configured sensing node along with the first available frequency point table. Referring to the example in Figure 4, the second device configures this sensing parameter configuration, and when the first available frequency point table is refreshed, it can send the randomization seed to the first device together. This is equivalent to the second device aligning its random frequency hopping algorithm with the first device, and their transmission and reception can be implemented on the same available frequency points.

[0189] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] In addition to using a random frequency hopping mode, the measurement time interval of the SLEM can also be randomized. That is, when the available frequency points use a linear frequency sweep measurement mode, a randomized interval needs to be used between different groups of sensing events to avoid interference between periodically repeating SLEMs. Referring to the above example, it can be understood that the time interval between adjacent sensing event groups (which represents the interval between SLEMs) in K groups of sensing events can be randomized. Figure 8 is a schematic flowchart of a method for randomizing the time interval provided in an embodiment of this application. As shown in Figure 8, when the number of available frequency points indicated by the first available frequency point table is less than a threshold (such as the threshold being 15 available frequency points provided in the above example), a random frequency hopping measurement mode can be used, or the time interval randomization method can be used when adjusting the sensing parameter configuration to achieve sensing.

[0190] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] One possible implementation is that the first device and the second device communicate through one-way sensing, and the second device processes the measurement signal sent by the first device to obtain the sensing result.

[0191] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Figure 9 is a flowchart of another sensing method provided in an embodiment of this application. The method is executed by a first device and a second device. The method includes S301 to S307.

[0192] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S301. The first device obtains the first available frequency point table based on the local CSI and channel quality.

[0193] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The method by which the first device obtains the first available frequency point table based on CSI and channel quality can be referred to the method by which the second device obtains the first available frequency point table in S203, and will not be elaborated further.

[0194] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] It should be understood that in a one-way sensing scenario, the first device can obtain the first available frequency point table based on the measured CSI and channel quality.

[0195] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In the unidirectional sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application, the sensing configuration parameters can configure the direction of unidirectional sensing. As shown in the example of Figure 9, the direction in which the first device sends a measurement signal to the second device can be configured in advance by the sensing configuration parameters. In one possible implementation, the second device does not need to send a feedback measurement signal.

[0206] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In addition, the first device may also indicate the effective sensing event group of the first available frequency point table to the second device through the second message, as in the example of FIG7, the first available frequency point table 1 is carried in the sensing parameter configuration message of SLE and indicates that it is effective in SLEM 1 to SLEM K, etc.

[0207] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Optionally, during the process of unidirectional sensing, full-frequency sensing can also be periodically inserted, or the available frequencies in the first available frequency table can be refreshed to full frequencies according to sensing or measurement requirements, etc.

[0208] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the available frequency points in the first available frequency point table provided in the sensing method of Figure 9 can also be obtained by random selection. The random selection method is the same as the previous example and will not be elaborated further.

[0209] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] Another possible implementation is that the first device and the second device communicate through one-way sensing, and the first device processes the measurement signal sent by the second device to obtain the sensing result.

The difference is that in the scenario of one-way sensing, the second device can obtain the first available frequency point based on the CSI and channel quality measured at its own end, which will not be elaborated further.

[0213] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S402, The second device selects a first available frequency point from the first available frequency point table. The first available frequency point is used for the initialization phase.

[0221] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] S407, The first device obtains the sensing result based on the first CSI.

[0222] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] The sensing method provided in this application embodiment effectively reduces the number of channels (available frequencies) needed to transmit measurement signals in unidirectional sensing scenarios, thus reducing the measurement time and power consumption. Furthermore, in unidirectional sensing scenarios, referring to S212, an implementation method is provided where K SLEMs share a single initialization phase, reducing the number of initialization phases in the sensing measurement process, improving sensing accuracy, and reducing the overhead and power consumption caused by the initialization phase. The unidirectional sensing methods provided in Figures 10 and 9 cover unidirectional sensing in two directions, making the applicable scenarios of this sensing method more comprehensive.

[0223] [Revised according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] In addition, the second device can also instruct the first device to perform initialization phase synchronization with a period of K sensing event groups through the second message. For example, it can indicate the effective sensing event groups of the first available frequency point table. As shown in the example in Figure 7, the first available frequency point table 1 is carried in the sensing parameter configuration message of SLE and indicates that it is effective in SLEM 1 to SLEM K, etc.

[0224] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] Optionally, during the process of unidirectional sensing, full-frequency sensing can also be periodically inserted, or the available frequencies in the first available frequency table can be refreshed to full frequencies according to sensing or measurement requirements, etc.

[0225] [Revised according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the available frequency points in the first available frequency point table provided in the sensing method of Figure 10 can also be obtained by random selection. The random selection method is the same as the example above and will not be elaborated further.

[0226] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The sensing method provided in this application embodiment can obtain sensing results through different sensing modes, such as using an A-transmitting-B-receiving mode, based on unidirectional or bidirectional sensing technology. This method reduces measurement time and power consumption because the available frequency points used can meet the sensing requirements, and the number is smaller than the total frequency points (or much smaller, e.g., the total frequency points can be 79, while the frequency points indicated by the first available frequency point table can be 5 to 15). This sensing method is applicable to at least one of wireless communications such as Bluetooth (BT) communication, Sparklink or Nearlink communication, and WiFi communication. In this application embodiment, BT and BLE can refer to each other. Sparklink can include at least one of the following: SLE, SLB, or SLP.

[0227] [Amended according to Rule 26, 03.07.2026] It should be understood that the sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application can be applied to various systems, such as systems based on narrowband frequency hopping measurement and OFDM signal measurement. For example, this method can be applied to systems such as SLE, SLB, BLE, WiFi, other OFDM-based systems, UWB systems, etc. The sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application will be described below through some practical application systems, but without limitation.

[0228] [Amended according to Rule 26 03.07.2026] The following description uses the sensing method provided in the embodiments of this application applied to a digital car key system as an example. It should be understood that digital car keys and digital door locks can automatically complete unlocking or locking actions by measuring the signal to identify whether a legitimate user's key device is near or far. In the vehicle positioning scenario, referring to the example in Figure 11, the vehicle's topology may include: dedicated positioning anchor points (or positioning stations) deployed at the four corners of the vehicle; PEPS positioning anchor points deployed near the center console / rearview mirror or ceiling (inside the roof) inside the vehicle; and in-vehicle wireless communication devices such as displays, microphones, speakers, and cameras can also be reused as positioning stations for locating car keys (traditional car keys / mobile phones). Sentry (Eye) mode is a safety feature in intelligent connected vehicles built upon existing sensors and cameras. It helps drivers obtain real-time vehicle safety information when leaving the vehicle, automatically records images of the vehicle's surroundings, and sends alerts to the driver's mobile phone. Owners can control the vehicle via their phones to activate functions such as horn activation, headlight flashing, and remote voice control. However, Sentry mode suffers from high power consumption due to prolonged sensor operation. To conserve power, the car key system can activate a perception mode to detect people or animals approaching the vehicle. Upon detection, it wakes up normally dormant cameras to perform the Sentry mode's security recording function. In this scenario, the PEPS control node in the positioning node acts as the G node, and the remaining devices are T nodes. Both T and G nodes can sense presence, such as the proximity or presence of people or animals, to wake up dormant cameras. In this scenario, a low-power perception mode is required. The perception method provided in this application reduces the available frequency points used by the G and T nodes for perception, thus reducing detection power consumption.
