Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a sensing node performs sensing measurement in a predetermined sensing manner, then the sensing process is simple and stable, but the reliability of sensing measurement deteriorates when sensing conditions change
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic sensing manner switching by allowing the sensing node to transition from a first sensing manner to a second sensing manner based on changing sensing conditions. The network device configures multiple sensing manners and the sensing node selects appropriate manners according to real-time conditions, making the sensing process adaptive rather than static.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the sensing measurement parameters by switching between different sensing manners. The network device configures multiple sensing manners with different measurement parameters, and the sensing node adjusts these parameters based on sensing condition changes, thereby improving measurement reliability under varying conditions.
2Reliability
If the sensing node switches to different sensing manners based on conditions, then the reliability of sensing measurement improves, but the complexity of sensing process increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the sensing node reports sensing measurement results and condition changes to the network device. The network device then determines whether to trigger sensing manner switching and configures the appropriate sensing manner accordingly, creating a closed-loop control system that balances reliability improvement with operational simplicity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a single node performs both signal sending and receiving in the first sensing manner, then the device complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to changing sensing conditions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the sensing node universal by enabling it to perform both first sensing measurements (where the same node sends and receives signals) and second sensing measurements (where different nodes send and receive signals). The network device configures multiple sensing manners that include different node role assignments, allowing the sensing node to adapt its functionality based on conditions.

AI summary
A sensing manner switching method and apparatus, a communication device, and a storage medium are provided. The sensing manner switching method includes: obtaining, by a first device, a first measurement report; and determining, by the first device based on the first measurement report, whether to initiate switching of a sensing manner of the sensing target from the first sensing manner to a second sensing manner. The first measurement report is generated by a source node by performing first sensing measurement on a sensing target in a first sensing manner, a signal sending node in the first sensing manner and a signal receiving node in the first sensing manner are a same node, and the first device is the same as or different from the source node. A signal sending node in the second sensing manner and a signal receiving node in the second sensing manner are different nodes.
