在无线通信系统中,有望提供各种高精度的传感服务,例如:机器人导航的室内定位、智能家居的Wi-Fi传感和自动驾驶汽车的雷达传感等。在相关技术中,传感和通信系统通常是单独设计的,并占用不同的频段。
本申请考虑到毫米波和大规模MIMO技术的广泛部署,使得未来无线通信系统中的通信信号往往在时域和角度域都具有高分辨率,这使得利用通信信号实现高精度传感成为可能。因此,最好是联合设计传感和通信系统,使它们能够共享同一频段和硬件,以提高频率效率并降低硬件成本,从而促使了对通信和感知一体化(Integrated Sensing And Communication,ISAC)的研究。
ISAC将成为未来无线通信系统的一项关键技术,以支持许多重要的应用 场景。例如:在未来的自动驾驶车辆网络中,自动驾驶车辆将从网络中获得大量的信息,包括超高分辨率的地图和接近实时的信息,以进行导航和避免即将到来的交通拥堵。在同样的情况下,自动驾驶车辆中的雷达传感器应该能够提供强大的、高分辨率的障碍物探测功能,分辨率在厘米量级。用于自动驾驶车辆的ISAC技术提供了使用相同硬件和频谱资源实现高数据率通信和高分辨率障碍物探测的可能。ISAC的其他应用包括基于Wi-Fi的室内定位和活动识别、无人驾驶飞机的通信和传感、扩展现实(Extended Reality,XR)、雷达和通信一体化等。每个应用都有不同的要求、限制和监管问题。ISAC已经引起了学术界和工业界巨大的研究兴趣和关注。
ISAC通过硬件设备共用和软件定义功能的方式获得通信和感知双功能的一体化低成本实现,特点主要有:一是架构统一且简化,二是功能可重构可扩展,三是效率提升且成本降低。通信感知一体化的优势主要有三个方面:一是设备成本降低、尺寸减小,二是频谱利用率提升,三是系统性能提升。
学术界通常将ISAC的发展划分为四个阶段:共存阶段、共运行阶段、共设计阶段和共同协作阶段。
其中,共存阶段表示:通信系统和感知系统是两个相互分立的系统,两者会相互干扰,解决干扰的主要方法是:距离隔离、频段隔离、时分工作,MIMO技术、预编码等;
共运行阶段表示:通信系统和感知系统共用硬件平台,利用共有信息提升共同的性能,二者之间的功率分配对系统性能影响较大,主要问题是:低信噪比、相互干扰、低吞吐率。
共设计阶段表示:通信系统和感知系统成为一个完全的联合系统,包括联合信号设计、波形设计、编码设计等,前期有线性调频波形、扩频波形等,后来聚焦到OFDM波形、MIMO技术等。
共同协作阶段表示:多个通信感知一体化节点相互协作实现公共目标。例如,通过通信数据传输共享雷达探测信息,典型场景有驾驶辅助系统、雷达辅助通信等。
但是,相关技术中对通感一体化场景中的感知系统的研究,只是针对单一感知节点或单一感知功能的感知方法的研究,而单个感知节点的感知能力 可能不能够满足实际应用场景下的感知需求。对此,本申请实施例提供的无线感知协同方法能够根据感知需求来确定是否需要至少两个感知节点和/或至少两个感知功能进行协同感知,并在确定需要至少两个感知节点和/或至少两个感知功能进行协同感知的情况下,控制至少两个感知节点和/或至少两个感知功能进行相应的协同感知,以得到满足感知需求的感知结果。

2)目标环境的先验信息:指感知区域的物理或化学特征的先验信息,该先验信息不是待感知的目标环境信息;或者,该先验信息是待感知的目标特征,但先验信息的感知指标相比第一感知需求信息的感知指标较差;例如: 在进行空气湿度检测时,需要空气温度的先验信息,以确定由干燥空气引起的信号衰减,从而能够更精确地计算由空气中水汽(湿度)引起的信号衰减。
所述感知指标可以包括以下至少一项:感知误差、感知分辨率/感知精度、感知时延、感知范围、感知频率、检测概率、虚警概率、感知信干杂噪比、感知盲区要求等。

需要说明的是,在不同的感知应用场景中,根据感知目标和感知方法的不同,可能只需要一级测量量(例如:基于接收信号强度(Received Signal Strength,RSS)的人/车流量监测),或者只需要一级测量量和二级测量量(例如:雷达测距),或者同时需要一级测量量、二级测量量和三级测量量(例如:雷达成像)。
另外,上述第二感知节点执行第二感知过程所得到的第二感知测量量,与上述第一感知测量量具有相同的含义,在此不再赘述。
在实施中,在感知节点测量得到各自的测量结果后,可以在感知节点侧计算上述二级测量量和/或三级测量量,或者,感知节点还可以向感知功能网元或核心网网元发送一级测量量,以在感知功能网元侧或核心网网元来根据一级测量量计算上述二级测量量和/或三级测量量,甚至可以在应用服务器侧来根据一级测量量计算上述二级测量量和/或三级测量量。
在应用中,可以根据执行感知过程的感知节点、感知功能网元、核心网网元、应用服务器等设备的运算能力,以及对感知指标的要求,各级测量量可以在同一设备中运算得到,也可以在感知节点、感知功能网元、核心网网元、应用服务器中的不同设备中运算得到。
可选地,所述二级测量量由感知节点或感知功能网元或核心网网元,根据所述一级测量量计算得到;
所述三级测量量由感知节点或感知功能网元或所述核心网网元,根据所述一级测量量和/或所述二级测量量计算得到。
举例一:
如果执行感知过程的感知节点的运算能力较强(如基站),且感知测量量的数据量较大(传输时间开销较大),且感知需求对感知时延的要求较高,则可以在感知节点完成二级测量量和/或三级测量量的运算,并将运算结果发送给感知功能网元、核心网网元、应用服务器;
举例二:
如果执行感知过程的感知节点的运算能力较弱(如物联网终端),且感知测量量的数据量较大(传输时间开销较大),且感知需求对感知时延的要求不高但对感知精度的要求较高,则可以在感知节点完成一级测量量的运算,将运算结果发送给感知功能网元、核心网网元、应用服务器,由感知功能网元、核心网网元、应用服务器进行二级测量量和/或三级测量量的运算;
举例三:
如果感知测量量的数据量较小(传输时间开销较小),则可在核心网网元或应用服务器的调度下,可在感知节点、感知功能网元、核心网网元以及应用服务器中的至少一侧完成各级测量量的运算。
步骤202、所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点和第二感知节点,并获取所述第一感知节点和所述第二感知节点各自的感知需求信息。
在具体实施中,一个感知节点可以是能够完整地完成一个感知过程的设备或设备组,也就是说,一个感知节点可以包括一个或至少两个设备,且该一个或至少两个设备可以包括网络侧设备和/或终端设备。
例如:假设所述第一感知需求信息中的感知目标为测量感知对象的距离和速度,此时可以采用雷达回波检测的方式进行感知,如:采用基站自发自收或UE自发自收的方式;此时,仅需一个设备即可完成完整的感知过程,即一个节点包含一个设备;所述设备包括但不限于:基站、UE、发送接收点TRP、接入节点(Access Point,AP)、可重构智能表面(Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface,RIS)实体。
再例如:假设所述第一感知需求信息中的感知目标为测量感知区域的降雨率,此时可以采用基站A发送信号、基站B接收信号并进行信号处理的方式进行感知,也就是说,此时需两个设备配合完成一个感知过程,即一个节点可以包含两个设备;所述设备包括但不限于:基站、UE、TRP、AP、RIS。
再例如:假设所述第一感知需求信息中的感知目标为确定感知对象UE的位置,此时可以采用基于设备(device-based)的方式进行感知,除感知对象UE外,需要至少三个设备配合完成三点定位,也就是说,此时需多个设备配合完成感知过程,即一个节点可以包含多个设备;所述设备包括但不限于:基站、UE、TRP、AP、RIS。
另外,上述第一感知节点可以是根据第一感知需求信息选择的最佳感知节点,其是能够最大化满足第一感知需求信息的感知节点,或者在一定条件下能够满足第一感知需求信息的感知节点。其中,最大化满足第一感知需求信息,也可以理解为最小化偏差,即相比其他感知节点能够获得与第一感知需求信息中的感知目标和感知指标偏差最小的感知结果。因此,所述第一感知节点并不意味着能够独立满足第一感知需求信息的要求,其可能需要其他感知节点的辅助。此时,第一感知功能网元还可以确定第二感知节点,以利用第二感知节点辅助第一感知节点,以获取能够满足所述第一感知需求信息的要求的感知结果。
作为一种可选的实施方式,所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点,包括:
所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点和目标感知协同类型,并向所述第一感知节点发送所述第一感知需求信息;或者,
所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点,向所述第一感知节点发送所述第一感知需求信息,并接收来自所述第一感知节点的所述目标感知协同类型。
其中,所述目标感知协同类型包括以下任一项:
相同感知功能网元协调下的不同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知;
相同感知功能网元协调下的相同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知;
不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知。
选项一
所述相同感知功能网元协调下的不同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知,可以理解为:相同感知功能网元协调下、不同感知类型之间协同实施目标感知,即所述第一感知节点和所述第二感知节点都是由所述第一感知功能网元调度的感知节点,且所述第一感知节点与所述第二感知节点的感知类型不同,例如:第一感知节点用于感知人流量,所述第二感知节点用于感知天气情况,这样,可以排除降雨、雾霾等不同天气情况对人流量感知过程的干扰,以提升人流量感知结果的准确性。
在移动通信感知网络中,可以有至少两种不同感知类型的感知节点由相同的感知功能网元协调,例如:基于RSS的天气情况感知和人/车流量感知的感知较为相似,可以由相同的感知功能网元协调;此时,该感知功能网元可以协调不同的感知类型(例如:天气情况感知、人/车流量感知等)的感知节点,以进行感知协同。
需要说明的是,在确定所述目标感知协同类型为相同感知功能网元协调下、不同感知类型之间的协同的情况下,所述第一感知节点的感知需求信息与所述第二感知节点的感知需求信息分别为不同的感知需求信息。
选项二
所述相同感知功能网元协调下的相同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知,可以理解为:相同感知功能网元协调下、相同感知类型之间协同实施目标感知,即所述第一感知节点和所述第二感知节点都是由所述第一感知功能网元调度的感知节点,且所述第一感知节点与所述第二感知节点的感知类型相同。
本实施方式下,多个节点在相同的感知功能网元的协调下实施相同的感知过程,可以通过数据融合等处理得到感知指标增强的感知结果,从而实现提高感知性能。例如:一定区域内所有的基于基站/UE的雷达成像感知由相同的感知功能网元进行协调,这样,综合第一感知节点和第二感知节点对同 一感知对象的雷达成像感知结果,可以提升雷达成像感知的精确度。
需要说明的是,在确定所述目标感知协同类型为相同感知功能网元协调下、相同感知类型之间的协同的情况下,所述第一感知节点的感知需求信息与所述第二感知节点的感知需求信息分别为相同的感知需求信息。
选项三
所述不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知,可以理解为:不同感知功能网元协调下、不同感知类型之间协同实施目标感知,即所述第一感知节点由所述第一感知功能网元调度,所述第二感知节点由第二感知功能网元调度,此时,第一感知节点和第二感知节点的感知类型可以相同也可以不同,但是,通常情况下,不同感知功能网元调度下的感知节点的感知类型通常并不相同,例如:在移动通信感知网络中,感知测量量和/或感知方法区别较大的感知类型可以有不同感知功能网元控制,例如:基于基站/UE的雷达成像感知与定位感知,可以由不同的感知功能网元分别协调。为了便于说明,以下实施例中,以第一感知节点和第二感知节点的感知类型不同为例,对所述不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知的过程进行举例说明。
在实施中,可以采用以下任一种方式来确定第一感知节点:
方式一:
可以在网络侧设备中预先存储每一个感知节点的能力配置信息,例如:每一个感知功能网元可以预先存储由其调度的每一个感知节点的能力配置信息,这样,在某一感知功能网元获取到感知需求时,能够根据自身和/或其他网络节点预先存储的能力配置信息,来确定用于执行第一感知过程的第一感知节点,并将第一感知需求信息发送给所述第一感知节点。
可选地,所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点,包括:
所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息和每一个感知节点的能力配置信息,确定第一感知节点。
本实施方式中,感知功能网元能够根据预先存储的各个感知节点的能力配置信息,来选择可用于执行第一感知过程的第一感知节点。
方式二:
网络侧设备可以不预先存储感知节点的能力配置信息,此时,感知功能网元可以根据第一感知需求信息初步选择执行第一感知过程的感知节点,并将第一感知需求信息发送给该感知节点;所述感知节点则根据接收到的第一感知需求信息,对感知功能网元进行反馈,如果该感知节点反馈确定执行第一感知过程,则选择其作为所述第一感知节点,并结束选择过程;如果该感知节点反馈不能执行第一感知过程,则感知功能网元需要重新选择第一感知节点,直至选择到能够执行第一感知过程的第一感知节点。
可选地,所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点,包括:
所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息选择第三感知节点,并向所述第三感知节点发送所述第一感知需求信息;
所述第一感知功能网元接收所述第三感知节点的第一反馈信息;
所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一反馈信息,将支持执行所述第一感知过程的第三感知节点确定为第一感知节点。
其中,所述第三感知节点可以理解为根据第一感知需求信息初步选择执行第一感知过程的感知节点。
本实施方式中,由感知节点根据自身的能力配置信息确定能够执行第一感知过程,避免了需要在网络侧设备预先存储每一个感知节点的能力配置信息。
进一步地,在确定第一感知节点后,还可以根据第一感知需求信息和所述第一感知节点的能力配置信息,来确定所述第一感知节点是否需要其他感知节点协同,才能够得到满足所述第一感知需求信息的目标感知结果。
例如:感知功能网元或其他网络节点存储各感知节点的能力配置信息,感知功能网元通过访问自身存储或其他网络节点存储的各感知节点的能力配置信息数据,以根据第一感知节点的能力配置信息和第一感知需求确定是否需要感知协同。
再例如:感知功能网元和其他网络节点不存储感知节点的能力配置信息,在第一感知功能网元将第一感知需求信息发送给第一感知节点后,第一感知 节点根据自身的能力配置信息和第一感知需求信息确定是否需要感知协同,并上报给第一感知功能网元。
需要说明的是,通过上述确定是否需要感知协同的过程,若确定需要感知协同,则第一感知功能网元或第一感知节点可以进一步确定所需的目标感知协同类型,例如:根据用于辅助所述第一感知节点的第二感知节点的感知类型是否与第一感知节点的感知类型相同,以及分别调用所述第一感知节点和所述第二感知节点的感知功能网元是否为同一感知功能网元等,确定所述目标感知协同类型,在此不作具体限定。
作为一种可选的实施方式,所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第二感知节点,包括:
所述第一感知功能网元根据所述目标感知协同类型和所述第一感知需求信息,确定第二感知需求信息和第二感知节点,并向所述第二感知节点发送所述第二感知需求信息;或者,
所述第一感知功能网元接收来自所述第一感知节点的所述第二感知需求信息,根据所述第二感知需求信息和所述目标感知协同类型确定第二感知节点,并向所述第二感知节点发送所述第二感知需求信息。
在一些实施例中,所述第一感知功能网元,能够根据第一感知节点上报或感知功能网元存储或其他网络节点存储的第一感知节点的能力配置信息,结合第一感知需求信息和所述目标感知协同类型(相同感知功能网元协调下、不同感知类型之间协同实施目标感知),来确定协同感知需求(即第二感知需求信息)。
当然,在其他实施例中,还可以由第一感知节点确定所述第二感知需求信息,例如:所述第一感知节点根据自身的能力配置信息和所述第一感知需求信息,确定其需要其他感知节点提供什么样的辅助,从而据此确定所述第二感知需求信息为需要的辅助的信息,此时,感知功能网元可以接收来自所述第一感知节点的第二感知需求信息,并据此选择第二感知节点。
需要说明的是,上述感知功能网元根据第二感知需求信息选择第二感知节点的过程,可以与所述第一感知功能网元根据第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点的过程相似,例如:感知功能网元或其他网络节点存储各感知节 点的能力配置信息,感知功能网元访问自身存储或其他网络节点存储的各感知节点的能力配置信息数据,感知功能网元根据存储的能力配置信息和第二感知需求信息选择执行协同感知过程(即第二感知过程)的第二感知节点,并向第二感知节点发送第二感知需求信息;或者,感知功能网元或其他网络节点没有存储感知节点的能力配置信息,感知功能网元根据第二感知需求信息初步选择执行第二感知过程的第二感知节点,并向该第二感知节点发送第二感知需求信息;第二感知节点对感知功能网元进行反馈:如果第二感知节点反馈确定执行第二感知过程,则选择过程结束;如果第二感知节点反馈不能执行该第二感知过程,则感知功能网元重新选择第二感知节点,在此对感知功能网元确定第二感知节点的过程不做过多阐述。
值得注意的是,在所述目标协同感知类型为不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知的情况下,可以由核心网网元进行协调。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述第二感知节点由第二感知功能网元调度的情况下,所述方法还包括:
所述第一感知功能网元向核心网网元发送所述第二感知需求信息,其中,所述第二感知需求信息用于确定所述第二感知功能网元和所述第二感知节点。
在实施中,上述所述第二感知需求信息用于确定所述第二感知功能网元和所述第二感知节点可以理解为:所述核心网网元在接收到所述第二感知需求信息时,可以根据所述第二感知需求信息确定所述第二感知功能网元和所述第二感知节点,或者,所述核心网网元用于根据所述第二感知需求信息确定所述第二感知功能网元,且所述第二感知功能网元根据所述第二感知需求信息确定所述第二感知节点。
具体的,核心网网元可以根据第二感知需求信息选择第二感知功能网元和对应的第二感知节点,或者核心网网元仅根据所述第二感知需求信息选择第二感知功能网元,并由所述第二感知功能网元选择第二感知节点。
可选地,所述第二感知功能网元的选择过程可以是以下两种方式中的任一种:
方式一:核心网网元或其他网络节点存储各感知功能网元支持的感知业务类型,核心网网元访问自身或其他网络节点存储的各感知功能网元支持的 感知业务类型数据,核心网网元根据存储的感知业务类型信息和第二感知需求信息选择执行协同感知过程的第二感知功能网元,并将第二感知需求发送给第二感知功能网元。
方式二:核心网网元和其他网络节点不存储各感知功能网元支持的感知业务类型,核心网网元根据第二感知需求信息初步选择第二感知功能网元,并将第二感知需求信息发送给第二感知功能网元;第二感知功能网元对核心网网元进行反馈:如果该第二感知功能网元支持第二感知需求信息指示的感知业务类型,则确认执行第二感知过程、第二感知功能网元选择过程结束;如果第二感知功能网元不支持第二感知需求信息指示的感知业务类型,则反馈不能执行该第二感知过程,核心网网元选择其他感知功能网元。
本实施方式中,对于上述不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知的情况,可以由核心网网元进行协调。
可选地,所述第二感知节点满足以下至少一项:
与所述第一感知节点的感知类型相同,或者,与所述第一感知节点的感知类型不相同;
由所述第一感知功能网元调度,或者,由第二感知功能网元调度;
所述第二感知节点为参考站。
在实施中,在所述目标感知协同类型为相同感知功能网元协调下的不同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知或者不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知的情况下,所述第一感知节点与所述第二感知节点的感知类型可以不相同。
在所述目标感知协同类型为相同感知功能网元协调下的相同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知的情况下,所述第一感知节点与所述第二感知节点的感知类型可以相同。
另外,上述参考站可以包括以下至少一项:
1)配备传统测量工具的站点,例如:雨量计、温度计、湿度计、红外线人流感知设备、专用多普勒测速设备等,该站点将测得的参考感知结果通过无线或有线通信发送给第一感知节点或感知功能网元作为参考,用以修正第一感知节点的无线感知结果的偏差;
2)已知感知结果的站点,例如:已知精确的经纬高坐标的参考站,第一感知节点通过对该站点进行位置感知,用以确定并修正第一感知节点的无线感知结果的偏差,此时,第一感知节点与该站点一起构成参考站,即第二感知节点;又例如:距离气象观测站一定距离之内(例如一百米)的感知节点可作为天气感知的参考站;
3)配备传统测量工具的无线感知节点,例如:配备雨量计、温度计、湿度计等的天气感知节点,无线感知节点执行感知结果运算的部分中间变量由配备的传统测量工具测量得到,从而该无线感知节点的感知结果的感知指标得到增强,可以作为参考站。
在另一些可选的实施方式中,所述第二感知节点也可以是与第一感知节点相似的无线感知节点,但是其配置参数稍有不同,从而感知能力不同,其具体可以包括以下情况中的至少一种:
情况一:第二感知节点与第一感知节点所处的位置不同,从而所受到的干扰因素不同。
例如:第二感知节点为距离地面数十米高的宏基站,从而不会受到行人/车辆穿越等因素的影响,只受到天气情况的影响,可以进行天气情况检测;而第一感知节点为距离地面较近的微基站,与行人/车辆的高度较为接近,可进行行人/车辆的检测,同时也受到天气情况的影响。
情况二:第二感知节点与第一感知节点的硬件配置不同,从而信号相关配置不同,所述信号相关配置包括:频段、极化、带宽、发射功率等。
例如:第二感知节点为FR2频段的设备,受到天气情况影响比较显著,适合用来进行天气情况感知;而第一感知节点为FR1频段设备,受天气情况影响不显著但行人/车辆的遮挡仍会造成显著影响;
情况三:第二感知节点与第一感知节点的工作负荷不同,从而允许用来进行感知的资源(时间、带宽等)量不同。
例如:第一感知节点处在人流密度较高区域,能够分配给感知的时间和带宽资源较少;而第二感知节点处在人流密度相对较低的区域,能够分配给感知的时间和带宽资源相对较多
情况四:第二感知节点与第一感知节点是相同实体,但是需执行不同的 感知过程;该相同实体执行第二感知过程时作为第二感知节点、执行第一感知过程时作为第一感知节点。
需要说明的是,所述第二感知需求信息与所述第一感知需求信息相似,其同样可以包括:感知目标、感知目标先验信息、感知指标和感知测量量中的至少一项,在此不再赘述。
另外,在具体实施中,第二感知需求信息的具体内容与第一感知需求信息的具体内容可以是相同的也可以是不相同的;在第二感知节点辅助第一感知节点实施目标感知的用例中,第二感知需求信息与第一感知需求信息所包含的具体内容通常不完全相同。
而且,第二感知节点的主要特征是根据第二感知需求信息执行第二感知过程,在某些情况下,第二感知节点与第一感知节点可以是相同的实体。此种情况下,由第一感知节点执行第二感知过程,用来辅助第一感知节点的第一感知过程。为了便于说明,我们称此种情况下执行第二感知过程的第一感知节点为第二感知节点,执行第一感知过程的第一感知节点为第一感知节点。
需要说明的是,在一个感知节点能够满足感知需求的情况下,第一感知功能网元也可以选择一个感知节点执行对应的感知过程,以获取满足该感知需求的感知结果,在此不做过多阐述。
另外,上述第二感知节点可以是一个感知节点也可能是至少两个感知节点,甚至,所述第二感知节点可能也需要其他感知节点进行辅助,以获取满足所述第二感知节点的需求信息的感知结果,再利用该满足所述第二感知节点的需求信息的感知结果去辅助第一感知节点,以获取目标感知结果。
例如:感知功能网元根据第一感知节点和第二感知节点上报的能力配置信息,或根据在感知功能网元或其他网络节点存储的第一感知节点和第二感知节点的能力配置信息,以及各个感知节点的感知需求信息,确定是否需要第三感知节点进行感知协同(例如:通过感知指标判定是否需要第三感知节点协同);如果不需要第三感知节点协同则节点选择过程结束,如果需要第三感知节点协同则重复上一步的感知节点选择过程,直至选择的全部辅助感知节点(如:第二感知节点和第三感知节点,甚至还包括第四感知节点)的感知指标满足感知需求的要求。
在实施中,可以由感知功能网元或第一感知节点确定需要的辅助节点的数量,为了便于说明,以下实施例中,将一个或至少两个第二感知节点,以及用于辅助所述第二感知节点的其他感知节点,统一称之为第二感知节点。

在第三种可选的实施方式中,所述第一感知功能网元获取目标感知结果,包括:
所述第一感知功能网元获取所述第二感知节点执行第二感知过程测量得到的第二测量量和/或第二感知结果,并向所述第一感知节点发送所述第二测量量和/或第二感知结果;

在实际应用中,可以根据第一感知节点、感知功能网元以及核心网网元的计算能力,以及所述第一测量量,以及所述第二测量量和/或第二感知结果的数据量等情况,确定由第一感知节点、感知功能网元以及核心网网元执行上述计算目标感知结果的过程。
为了便于说明,通过以下几种实施例,对上述计算所述第一感知节点的 目标感知结果的过程,进行举例说明:
实施例一

在具体实施中,上述第二感知节点可以执行第二感知过程,以得到第二感知测量量,并根据第二感知测量量计算得到上述第二感知结果。
实施例二

需要说明的是,在得到目标感知结果后,可以通过核心网网元向第三方应用或终端发送所述目标感知结果。
在实施中,在所述目标感知协同类型为不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知的情况下,感知功能网元还可以将上述第一感知测量量和/ 或第一感知结果,所述第二感知测量量和/或第二感知结果转发至核心网网元,以通过核心网网元来计算得到所述目标感知结果。例如:第一感知节点将执行第一感知过程得到的第一感知测量量(一级测量量和/或二级测量量和/或三级测量量)和/或第一感知结果通过第一感知功能网元发送给核心网网元,第二感知节点将执行第二感知过程得到的第二感知测量量(一级测量量和/或二级测量量和/或三级测量量)和/或第二感知结果通过第二感知功能网元发送给核心网网元,由核心网网元根据所述第一感知测量量和/或第一感知结果,以及所述第二感知测量量和/或所述第二感知结果,来计算第三方应用或UE需要的所述目标感知结果。
值得指出的是,上述第一感知节点、第二感知节点、第一感知功能网元、第二感知功能网元以及核心网网元之间的数据交互过程可以是直接进行通信,或者间接进行通信,例如:在第一感知节点由第一感知功能网元调度,且第二感知节点由第二感知功能网元调度的情况下,所述第二感知节点可以将第二感知测量量和/或第二感知结果,依次通过第二感知功能网元、核心网网元、第一感知功能网元发送给第一感知节点,以实现所述第二感知节点向所述第一感知节点发送数据,在此对第一感知节点、第二感知节点、第一感知功能网元、第二感知功能网元以及核心网网元之间的数据交互过程不作具体限定。
其中,上述第一感知过程和第二感知过程的类型,分别可以包括以下至少一项:
1)自发自收:适用于一个感知节点只包含一个设备的情况,例如:雷达自发自收进行目标对象距离、速度、角度的测量或目标区域天气情况的测量等;
2)一个设备发信号、另一个设备收信号:适用于一个感知节点包含两个设备的情况,例如:人/车流量监测用例中,根据行人/车辆穿越由第一设备与第二设备构成的链路时,将造成第二设备接收信号强度衰落的情况,来监测行人/车辆的穿越过程;
3)一个设备发信号,且多个设备收信号:适用于一个感知节点包含多个设备的情况,例如:天气情况检测用例中,处于感知区域中心位置的一个设备通过波束扫描的方式向四周发信号、处于其他位置的多个设备分别接收信 号,通过多个设备的接收信号强度运算,结合层析重构(tomographic reconstruction)等算法,可得到感知区域的天气情况(如降雨率)分布。
当然,在实施中,也可由一个设备收信号,且多个设备发信号,其原理与上述一个设备发信号,且多个设备收信号的情况相似,在此不做过多阐述。
根据第一感知过程对第二感知过程的需求关系,可以先执行第二感知过程,然后执行第一感知过程,或者,并不限定第一感知过程与第二感知过程的执行顺序。
对于先执行第二感知过程,然后执行第一感知过程的情况:适用于第一感知信号(指执行第一感知过程所发送的信号)的部分配置参数(或第一感知信号相关配置的部分参数)依赖于第二感知结果(指执行第二感知过程得到的感知结果)或第二感知测量量来确定。
对于不限定第一感知过程与第二感知过程的执行顺序的情况:此种情况适用于第一感知信号的配置参数不依赖于第二感知结果或第二感知测量量,因此第一感知过程与第二感知过程可以同时执,或者先执行第一感知过程,再执行第二感知过程,或者先执行第二感知过程,再执行第一感知过程。
需要说明的是,本实施方式中,虽然不限定第一感知过程与第二感知过程的执行顺序,但是目标感知结果的计算仍然依赖于第二感知结果或第二感知测量量。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述第一感知功能网元向所述第一感知节点发送所述第一感知需求信息之后,所述方法还包括:

例如:感知功能网元根据第一感知需求信息,以及第一感知节点的能力配置信息,确定第一感知信号相关配置信息,并分别发送给第一感知节点。其中,上述第一感知节点的能力配置信息可以是所述感知功能网元自身或其他网络节点存储的,或者是第一感知节点上报的,在此不作具体限定。
本实施方式中,感知功能网元可以根据感知节点的能力配置信息和第一 感知需求信息来确定第一感知节点执行第一感知过程所需的第一信号的第一感知信号相关配置信息。
在第二种可选的实施方式中,上述第一感知信号相关配置信息也可以由第一感知节点自行确定,例如:第一感知节点根据自身能力配置信息和所述第一感知需求信息,确定所述第一感知信号相关配置信息。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述第一感知功能网元向所述第二感知节点发送所述第二感知需求信息之后,所述方法还包括:

本实施方式中,确定所述第二感知信号相关配置信息的过程与上述确定第一感知信号相关配置的过程相似,例如:可以由感知功能网元确定,或者由第二感知节点自行确定,在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,在实际应用中,上述第二感知信号相关配置信息还可以第一感知节点推荐的配置信息,例如:第一感知节点确定第一信号相关配置信息,并且第一感知节点还给出第二感知信号相关配置信息的推荐值,并发送给第二感知节点,再由第二感知节点根据所述第二感知信号相关配置信息的推荐值来确定第二感知信号相关配置信息。
为了便于理解本申请实施例提供的无线感知协同方法,以如下三个应用场景为例,对本申请提供的无线感知协同方法进行举例说明:
场景一
在人/车流量感知应用场景中,第一感知需求信息中的感知目标是人/车流量。此时,第一感知节点包括两个设备(第一设备和第二设备),第一设备发送信号、第二设备接收信号,第二设备通过对接收信号强度(功率)的检测来判断是否有人/车穿越过由第一设备和第二设备构成的链路(如视距(Line Of Sight,LOS)路径)。第一感知需求信息中的感知测量量是信号强度,第 一感知信号相关配置包括信号频率、发射功率等。
在此场景中,在无人/车穿越时,第一感知节点的第二设备接收信号的基础强度(Baseline)也会随着天气情况(包括雨、雪、雾、湿度等)等的变化而变化;从而无法区分第一感知节点的第二设备接收信号强度的变化是因为人/车流穿越还是天气变化。因此Baseline需要实时校准,而第一感知节点自身无法校准Baseline。因此,需要进行感知协同才能满足第一感知需求信息的要求。
对此,一个可行的Baseline校准方法是:引入第二感知节点进行协同感知,此时的目标协同感知类型可以是相同感知功能网元协调下的不同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知,即第一感知节点和第二感知节点由同一感知功能网元进行调度,或者不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知,即第一感知节点和第二感知节点由不同的感知功能网元进行调度。通过本申请提供的无线感知协同方法,利用第二感知节点检测出由天气情况变化而引起的Baseline变化从而实现校准;然后,第二感知节点将校准信息发送给第一感知节点。第一感知节点在第二感知节点的Baseline校准结果的基础上进行人/车流量感知。其中,第二感知节点对应的第二感知需求信息中的感知目标是天气情况,感知测量量是接收信号强度。
场景二
在雷达成像场景中,感知需求信息(包括第一感知需求信息和第二感知需求信息)中的感知目标是目标区域的雷达二维成像,感知需求信息(包括第一感知需求信息和第二感知需求信息)中的感知测量量是复数信号、复数信号FFT运算结果等,感知需求信息(包括第一感知需求信息和第二感知需求信息)对应的感知信号相关配置主要包括信号带宽、信号波束宽度等。
在实施中,由于单个设备由于其天线阵面尺寸有限,雷达探测的角度域分辨率有限,从而雷达成像的分辨率较差,无法满足感知需求感知指标。通过本申请提供的无线感知协同方法,使多感知节点协同感知,且多个感知节点实施相同的感知过程。
根据第三方应用或UE的感知需求感知指标,感知功能网元选择多个感知节点进行协同感知成像,达到合成孔径成像的效果,并将多个感知节点得 出的感知结果进行融合数据处理,得到更高分辨率的雷达成像结果。
本应用场景下,目标协同感知类型可以是相同感知功能网元协调下的相同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知。
场景三
在天气情况检测中的降雨率分布检测的场景下,感知需求信息(包括第一感知需求信息和第二感知需求信息)中的感知目标是目标区域的降雨率分布,感知测量量是信号强度,感知需求信息(包括第一感知需求信息和第二感知需求信息)中的感知信号相关配置主要包括信号功率、频率等。降雨率检测采用第一设备发信号、第二设备收信号的方式,第二设备通过检测接收信号衰减,结合ITU标准降雨模型计算降雨率。
由于一个节点(包括两个设备:第一设备和第二设备)只能检测两个设备之间链路上的平均降雨率,无法得到目标区域的降雨率分布,需要引入其他感知节点进行感知协同,且多个节点实施相同的感知过程。
根据感知需求中的降雨率分布的空间分辨率需求,感知功能网元确定需要协同的感知节点数目(一个节点可包含两个或多个设备)。多个节点的降雨率检测结果通过层析重构等算法运算得到目标区域的降雨率分布情况。
本应用场景下,目标协同感知类型可以是相同感知功能网元协调下的相同感知类型的感知节点协同实施所述目标协同感知。
在本申请实施例中,第一感知功能网元获取第一感知需求信息;所述第一感知功能网元根据所述第一感知需求信息,确定第一感知节点和第二感知节点,并获取所述第一感知节点和所述第二感知节点各自的感知需求信息;所述第一感知功能网元获取目标感知结果,其中,所述目标感知结果根据所述第一感知节点和所述第二感知节点分别按照各自的感知需求信息进行目标协同感知的结果确定。这样,在一个感知节点不能够满足第一感知需求信息的情况下,能够选取至少两个感知节点,并确定每一个感知节点的需求信息,以通过该至少两个感知节点分别按照各自的感知需求信息进行目标协同感知,便可以获取满足所述第一感知需求信息的目标感知结果,从而提升了感知性能。

步骤404、所述核心网网元向所述第二感知节点发送所述第二感知需求信息。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例与如图2所示方法实施例的不同之处在于:如图2所示方法实施例的执行主体是第一感知功能网元,而如图4所示方法实施例的执行主体是核心网网元。且如图4所示方法实施例具体应用于目标感知协同类型为:不同感知功能网元之间协同实施所述目标协同感知的场景。
