具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。针对本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Networks,WLAN)、无线保真(Wireless Fidelity,WiFi)或其他通信系统等。WLAN可支持频段可以包括但不限于:低频段(2.4GHz、5GHz、6GHz)、高频段(60GHz)。
图1是本申请实施例应用的一种通信系统架构的示例。
如图1所示,该通信系统100可以包括AP 110,以及通过AP 110接入网络的STA 120。在一些场景中,AP 110可以或称AP STA,即在某种意义上来说,AP 110也是一种STA。在一些场景中,STA 120或称为非AP STA(non-AP STA)。在一些场景中,STA 120可以包括AP STA和non-AP STA。通信系统100中的通信可以包括:AP 110与STA 120之间通信,或STA 120与STA 120之间通信,或STA 120和peer STA之间通信,其中,peer STA可以指与STA 120的对端进行通信的设备,例如,peer STA可能为AP,也可能为non-AP STA。
其中,AP 110可用于一个连接有线网和无线网的桥梁,主要作用是将各个无线网络客户端连接到一起,然后将无线网络接入以太网。AP 110可以是带有WiFi芯片的终端设备(如手机)或者网络设备(如路由器)。
需要说明的是,STA 120在通信系统中的角色不是绝对的,也即是说,STA 120在通信系统中的角色可以在AP和STA之间进行切换。例如,在一些场景中,手机连接路由的时候,手机是STA,手机作为其他手机的热点的情况下,手机充当了AP的角色。
在一些实施例中,AP 110和STA 120可以是应用于车联网中的设备,物联网(internet of things,IoT)中的物联网节点、传感器等,智慧家居中的智能摄像头,智能遥控器,智能水表电表等,以及智 慧城市中的传感器等。

在一些实施例中,AP 110和/或STA 120可以部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、手持、穿戴或车载;也可以部署在水面上(如轮船);还可以部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。
在一些实施例中,STA 120可以是支持WLAN/WiFi技术的手机(Mobile Phone)、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)设备、增强现实(Augmented Reality,AR)设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线设备、机顶盒、无人驾驶(self-driving)中的无线设备、车载通信设备、远程医疗(remote medical)中的无线设备、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线设备、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线设备、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线设备或智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线设备、车载通信设备、无线通信芯片/专用集成电路(application specific integrated circuit,ASIC)/系统级芯片(System on Chip,SoC)等。
示例性地,STA 120还可以是可穿戴设备。可穿戴设备也可以称为穿戴式智能设备,是应用穿戴式技术对日常穿戴进行智能化设计、开发出可以穿戴的设备的总称,如眼镜、手套、手表、服饰及鞋等。可穿戴设备即直接穿在身上,或是整合到用户的衣服或配件的一种便携式设备。可穿戴设备不仅仅是一种硬件设备,更是通过软件支持以及数据交互、云端交互来实现强大的功能。广义穿戴式智能设备包括功能全、尺寸大、可不依赖智能手机实现完整或者部分的功能,例如:智能手表或智能眼镜等,以及只专注于某一类应用功能,需要和其它设备如智能手机配合使用,如各类进行体征监测的智能手环、智能首饰等。

例如,感知发起设备与第一感知响应设备建立了测量设置,其测量设置标识为1,感知发起设备与第二感知响应设备也建立了测量设置,其测量设置标识也为1,感知发起设备分别于第一感知响应设备和第二感知响应设备建立的测量设置均用于同一种感知应用,例如手势识别。一段时间后,感知发起设备与第一感知响应设备结束了测量设置,再过一段时间后,感知发起设备与第一感知响应设备再次建立测量设置,其用于步态识别,其测量设置标识仍然设为1,此时,感知发起设备有可能获取到的第一感知响应设备的测量结果与第二感知响应设备的测量结果且无法进行识别,进而导致既不能完成手势识别也不能完成步态识别。
本实施例中,将所述第一测量设置结束后,所述第一设备再次建立其它测量设置时,通过使用与第二设备参与的测量实例所使用的测量设置的标识不同的标识建立其它测量设置,相当于,在建立所述其它测量设置的过程中,区分开所述其他测量设置的标识和第二设备参与的测量实例所使用的测量设置的 标识,能够避免所述其它测量设置的标识和第二设备参与的测量实例所使用的测量设置的标识发生冲突,提升了感知测量的可靠性。
在一些实施例中,所述方法200还可包括:
在所述第一测量设置结束后,使用至少一个标识中的第一标识建立所述第一标识所标识的测量设置;所述至少一个标识包括第二设备参与的测量实例所使用的测量设置的标识。

下面结合图10至图11对本申请涉及的启动或重启第一定时器的实现方式进行示例性说明。
图10和图11是本申请实施例提供的启动或重启第一定时器的示例。
如图10所示,假设第一测量设置对应的第一定时器的启动时刻为所述所述第一测量设置的建立时刻之后第二设备计划发起的第一个测量实例的时刻,所述第一指示信息用于指示所述第一个测量实例的时刻。其中,所述建立时刻记为T0时刻,所述第一个测量实例的时刻记为T1时刻,第二个测量实例的时刻记为T2时刻,所述第一定时器的时长记为T。其中,T1时刻与T0时刻的差值小于T,T2时刻与T1时刻的差值小于T。
在测量过程中,第一设备或第二设备在T1时刻发起第一个测量实例,相应的,所述第一设备或所述第二设备在T1时刻启动所述第一定时器;所述第二设备在T2时刻启动第二个测量实例,此时,所述第一设备或所述第二设备重启所述第一定时器,在T2时刻和T5时刻之间的任意时刻(例如T4时刻),由于所述第二设备未按计划发起第三个测量实例,因此,在T5时刻所述第一定时器超时,则自动结束所述第一测量设置。
应当理解,图10仅为本申请的示例,不应理解为对本申请的限制。
例如,在其他可替代实施例中,所述第一定时器的启动时刻为所述第一个测量实例的时刻时,可以应用于第二设备未能发起所述第一个测量实例的场景,也可以应用于所述第二设备正常发起所述第一个测量实例的场景。
再如,所述第一定时器的启动时刻为所述第一个测量实例的时刻时,所述第一测量设置的建立时刻与所述第一个测量实例之间的时长可以大于或等于所述第一定时器的时长,也可以小于所述第一定时器的时长。
作为一个应用场景的示例,AP作为第二设备建立测量设置,所述第二设备计划很快会(T1时刻与T0时刻的差值小于T)会发起第一个测量实例,因此,可以将T1时刻作为第一定时器的启动时刻,在测量过程中,不管所述第二设备实际是否发起了所述第一个测量实例,都可以在所述第一个测量实例的时刻启动所述第一定时器;进一步的,可以根据测量实例的接收情况(或发送情况)和第一定时器的时长自动结束测量设置,相当于,可以不需要第一设备发送感知设置结束请求帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第二备维护)或第二设备发送感知设置结束帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第一设备维护),减少了系统负载。
作为另一个应用场景的示例,AP作为第二设备建立测量设置,所述第二设备计划一段时间之后(T1与T0的差值可能大于或等于T)会发起第一个测量实例,例如,所述第二设备在T0时刻和T2时刻之间AP可能需要跟其他设备也建立测量设置,因此,可以将T1时刻作为第一定时器的启动时刻,在测量过程中,不管所述第二设备实际是否发起了所述第一个测量实例,都可以在所述第一个测量实例的时刻启动所述第一定时器;进一步的,可以根据测量实例的接收情况(或发送情况)和第一定时器的时长自动结束测量设置,相当于,可以不需要第一设备发送感知设置结束请求帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第二备维护)或第二设备发送感知设置结束帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第一设备维护),减少了系统负载。
图11是本申请实施例提供的启动或重启第一定时器的另一示例。
如图11所示,假设第一测量设置对应的第一定时器的启动时刻为所述第一测量设置的建立时刻和所述建立时刻之后第二设备计划发起的第一个测量实例的时刻之间的任意时刻。其中,所述建立时刻记为T0时刻,所述第一个测量实例的时刻记为T2时刻,第二个测量实例的时刻记为T4时刻,所述第一定时器的启动时刻为T0时刻和T2时刻之间的任意时刻,将其记为T1时刻,所述第一定时器的时长记为T。T2时刻与T0时刻之间的差值小于T,T4时刻与T2时刻之间的差值也小于T。
在测量过程中,所述第一设备或所述第二设备在T1时刻启动第一定时器,且所述第二设备在T1时刻和T3时刻之间的T2时刻未按计划发起第一个测量实例;相应的,所述第一设备或所述第二设备在T2时刻启动第一定时器;进一步的,在T3时刻时第一定时器超时,此时,所述第一设备或所述第二设备自动结束所述第一测量设置。
应当理解,图11仅为本申请的示例,不应理解为对本申请的限制。
例如,在其他可替代实施例中,所述第一定时器的启动时刻为所述第一测量设置的建立时刻和所述建立时刻之后第二设备计划发起的第一个测量实例的时刻之间的任意时刻时,可以应用于第二设备未能发起所述第一个测量实例的场景,也可以应用于所述第二设备正常发起所述第一个测量实例的场景。
再如,所述第一测量设置的建立时刻和所述建立时刻之后第二设备计划发起的第一个测量实例的时刻之间的任意时刻时,只需要保证所述第一定时器的启动时刻与所述第一个测量实例之间的时长小于所 述第一定时器的时长,所述第一测量设置的建立时刻与所述第一个测量实例之间的时长,可以大于或等于所述第一定时器的时长,也可以小于所述第一定时器的时长,本申请对此不做具体限定。
再如,所述第一定时器的启动时刻也可以是所述第一测量设置的建立时刻。
作为一个应用场景的示例,AP作为第二设备建立测量设置,所述第二设备计划很快会(T2时刻与T0时刻的差值小于T)会发起第一个测量实例,所以采用T0时刻与T2时刻之间的T1时刻(也可以是T0时刻)作为第一定时器的启动时刻,在测量过程中,在T1时刻(也可以是T0时刻或T2时刻)启动所述第一定时器,以及,不管所述第二设备实际是否发起了所述第一个测量实例,都可以在所述第一个测量实例的时刻重启所述第一定时器;进一步的,可以根据测量实例的接收情况(或发送情况)和第一定时器的时长自动结束测量设置,相当于,可以不需要第一设备发送感知设置结束请求帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第二备维护)或第二设备发送感知设置结束帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第一设备维护),减少了系统负载。
作为另一个应用场景的示例,AP作为第二设备建立测量设置,所述第二设备计划一段时间之后(T2与T0的差值可能大于或等于T)会发起第一个测量实例,例如,第二设备在T0时刻和T2时刻之间AP可能需要跟其他设备也建立测量设置,因此,可以采用T1时刻(也可以是T2时刻)作为第一定时器的启动时刻,其中,T2时刻和T1时刻时间的差值小于T;在测量过程中,在T1时刻(也可以是T0时刻或T2时刻)启动所述第一定时器,以及,不管所述第二设备实际是否发起了所述第一个测量实例,都可以在所述第一个测量实例的时刻重启所述第一定时器;进一步的,可以根据测量实例的接收情况(或发送情况)和第一定时器的时长自动结束测量设置,相当于,可以不需要第一设备发送感知设置结束请求帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第二备维护)或第二设备发送感知设置结束帧(即所述第一定时器由所述第一设备维护),减少了系统负载。
在一些实施例中,所述第一测量设置的结束不影响所述第一设备和其他设备之间的测量设置;和/或,所述第一测量设置的结束不影响第二设备和其他设备之间的测量设置;和/或,所述第一测量设置的结束不影响所述第一设备和所述第二设备之间建立的其他测量设置。
示例性地,所述第一设备和/或所述第二设备结束所述第一测量设置时,不影响该第一设备和其他设备之间的测量设置,也不影响所述第二设备和其他设备之间的测量设置,无论所述其他测量设置的标识与所述第一测量设置的标识相同或不同。
在一些实施例中,所述方法200还可包括:
在所述第一测量设置被结束之前,维持与所述第一测量设置相关的存储资源和与所述第一测量设置相关的计算资源。
示例性地,所述第一设备和/或所述第二设备结束所述第一测量设置之前,所述第一设备和/或所述第二设备需要保持所述第一测量设置可用,即与所述第一测量设置相关的存储资源和与所述第一测量设置相关的计算资源可用。
