技术领域technical field
本发明涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种感知功能管理方法及装置、存储介质、终端、网络设备。The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a perception function management method and device, a storage medium, a terminal, and a network device.
背景技术Background technique
未来的通信设备,如用户设备(User Equipment,UE)等,可能不会单单配置有通信功能,还可以承担一部分感知(Sensing)功能。这里提到的感知,其原理与雷达(Radar)相同,都是基于通信设备接收到的电磁波来估计通信设备周边的环境中各个物体的形状、运动形态等信息。其中,通信设备接收到的电磁波可以是该通信设备自身发出的电磁波的回响(echo),也可以是其他物体主动发出的电磁波。Future communication devices, such as User Equipment (UE), may not only be equipped with communication functions, but may also undertake part of the sensing (Sensing) function. The perception mentioned here has the same principle as that of radar (Radar). It is based on the electromagnetic waves received by the communication device to estimate the shape and movement form of various objects in the environment around the communication device. Wherein, the electromagnetic wave received by the communication device may be an echo (echo) of the electromagnetic wave emitted by the communication device itself, or may be an electromagnetic wave actively emitted by other objects.
现有具备感知功能的设备,也即具备发送和/或接收电磁波的设备(如雷达等),其感知功能的射频链路通常与通信功能的射频链路分开设计。然而,分开设计的射频链路成本较高,且若感知功能使用的电磁波信号频段与通信功能使用的电磁波信号频段相近时,可能存在信号干扰。若考虑将感知功能和通信功能的射频链路联合设计的通信设备,需要一种感知功能管理方法,以在通信设备有需求使用感知功能或者网络侧有需求触发通信设备的感知功能时,能够对通信设备的感知功能进行有效调度。For existing devices with sensing functions, that is, devices capable of sending and/or receiving electromagnetic waves (such as radar, etc.), the radio frequency link of the sensing function is usually designed separately from the radio frequency link of the communication function. However, the cost of separately designed radio frequency links is high, and if the frequency band of the electromagnetic wave signal used by the sensing function is similar to that used by the communication function, there may be signal interference. If a communication device that combines the sensing function and the radio frequency link of the communication function is considered, a sensing function management method is needed, so that when the communication device needs to use the sensing function or the network side has a demand to trigger the sensing function of the communication device, it can be used. The perception function of communication equipment can be effectively dispatched.

请参见图1,图1为本发明实施例的一种感知功能管理方法的流程示意图,所述方法可以被应用于终端侧,所述终端可以包括用户设备(UE),例如手机、电脑、智能手表等等设备,以下以UE为例介绍所述感知功能管理方法的各个步骤,该方法可以包括下述步骤S101和步骤S102,详述如下:Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a perception function management method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method can be applied to the terminal side, and the terminal can include user equipment (UE), such as mobile phones, computers, smart For devices such as watches, the following uses UE as an example to introduce the steps of the sensing function management method. The method may include the following steps S101 and S102, which are described in detail as follows:
步骤S101,确定发送感知信号的调度资源。Step S101, determining a scheduling resource for sending a sensing signal.
其中,所述感知信号为UE向其周围发送的信号,所述感知信号可以为雷达信号等能够实现感知UE周围环境信息的电磁波信号。所述感知信号可以为通信信号的一部分,如辅同步信号(Secondary Synchronization Signal,简称SSS)或定位参考信号(positioning reference signal,简称PRS)或探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,简称SRS)等信号,该感知信号可以用于测距、测角等。Wherein, the sensing signal is a signal sent by the UE to its surroundings, and the sensing signal may be an electromagnetic wave signal capable of sensing the surrounding environment information of the UE, such as a radar signal. The sensing signal may be a part of the communication signal, such as a secondary synchronization signal (Secondary Synchronization Signal, SSS for short) or a positioning reference signal (positioning reference signal, PRS for short) or a sounding reference signal (sounding reference signal, SRS for short) and other signals, The sensing signal can be used for distance measurement, angle measurement, etc.

The UE can determine the scheduling resource for sending the sensing signal according to the protocol or the instruction of the network.
步骤S102,使用所述调度资源发送感知信号以执行感知功能。Step S102, using the scheduling resource to send a sensing signal to perform a sensing function.
UE使用步骤S101中确定的调度资源发送感知信号,通过向UE周围发送感知信号(例如雷达等电磁波信号),基于周围环境中各个物体的反射的电磁波信号探测获取周围环境中各个物体的形状、材质、位置等信息,也即周围的环境信息。本步骤中,UE使用所述调度资源发送感知信号,并根据发送的感知信号探测获取周围的环境信息,也即UE执行感知功能。The UE uses the scheduling resources determined in step S101 to send sensing signals, and by sending sensing signals (such as radar and other electromagnetic wave signals) around the UE, the shape and material of each object in the surrounding environment are obtained based on the electromagnetic wave signal detection reflected by each object in the surrounding environment , location and other information, that is, the surrounding environment information. In this step, the UE uses the scheduling resource to send a sensing signal, and detects and obtains surrounding environment information according to the sent sensing signal, that is, the UE performs a sensing function.

In other words, step S101 is executed when the UE receives an indication message, or is not triggered by an external signal, for example, when the UE determines that step S101 needs to be executed according to relevant conditions.
可选的,所述指示消息用于指示发送感知信号和/或所述调度资源。Optionally, the indication message is used to indicate to send the sensing signal and/or the scheduling resource.

The indication message is used to indicate to the UE to start performing the sensing function and/or indicate the scheduling resource for sending the sensing signal when performing the sensing function.
在一个具体实施例中,网络侧可以调度UE执行感知功能。此时,网络侧可以通过高层信令或者DCI向UE发送指示消息,所述指示消息中可以包括以下几种形式:In a specific embodiment, the network side may schedule the UE to perform the sensing function. At this time, the network side can send an indication message to the UE through high-level signaling or DCI, and the indication message can include the following forms:
1、在网络侧发送给UE的现有信令(例如,现有技术中已有的各种协议中规定的信令)中增加一个或多个比特(bit),用于指示UE开始执行感知功能,此时该现有信令即为指示消息。例如,通过1个比特位承载是否开始执行感知功能的指令,当该比特位的值为1时,指示开始UE开始执行感知功能,当该比特位为0或者为空时,指示UE不执行感知功能。1. Add one or more bits (bits) to the existing signaling sent to the UE by the network side (for example, the signaling specified in various existing protocols in the prior art) to instruct the UE to start performing sensing function, at this time, the existing signaling is an indication message. For example, the instruction of whether to start performing the sensing function is carried by 1 bit. When the value of the bit is 1, it indicates that the UE starts to perform the sensing function. When the bit is 0 or empty, it indicates that the UE does not perform the sensing function. Function.
2、新定义专门的信令(例如,现有技术中已有的各种协议规定的信令基础上新增的信令)用于指示UE开始执行感知功能,此时新定义的信令为指示消息,当UE接收到该新定义的信令时,则指示UE需要执行感知功能,若UE未收到该新定义的信令时,则不执行感知功能。2. Newly define special signaling (for example, signaling newly added on the basis of signaling specified by various protocols in the prior art) to instruct UE to start performing the sensing function. At this time, the newly defined signaling is The indication message indicates that the UE needs to perform the sensing function when the UE receives the newly defined signaling, and does not perform the sensing function if the UE does not receive the newly defined signaling.
3、在现有信令或者新定义的信令中通过若干比特指示调度资源,网络侧向UE发送该信令,UE接收到信令后,若确定的调度资源为发送感知信号的调度资源,则确定需要执行感知功能并使用该调度资源发送感知信号、执行感知功能。可选的,所述发送感知信号的调度资源可以由网络层通过高层信令配置或者预定义好的形式确定。3. The scheduling resource is indicated by several bits in the existing signaling or newly defined signaling, and the network side sends the signaling to the UE. After the UE receives the signaling, if the determined scheduling resource is the scheduling resource for sending the sensing signal, Then it is determined that the sensing function needs to be performed, and the scheduling resource is used to send a sensing signal and perform the sensing function. Optionally, the scheduling resource for sending the sensing signal may be configured by the network layer through high-layer signaling or determined in a predefined form.
针对上述指示消息的形式1和形式2,可以在指示消息对应的现有信令或者新定义的信令中增加若干比特指示发送感知信号的调度资源,或者,网络也可以通过其他信令向UE指示其发送感知信号使用的调度资源。For the above-mentioned forms 1 and 2 of the indication message, several bits can be added to the existing signaling corresponding to the indication message or newly defined signaling to indicate the scheduling resource for sending the sensing signal, or the network can also send a notification to the UE through other signaling.

在另一个具体实施例中,UE不需要响应于网络侧的信号可以自主执行感知功能。例如,UE在自己需要获取周围的环境信息时,可以自己确定调度资源、发送感知信号以执行感知功能。In another specific embodiment, the UE can autonomously perform the sensing function without responding to a signal from the network side. For example, when the UE needs to obtain the surrounding environment information, it can determine the scheduling resource and send the sensing signal to perform the sensing function.
可选的,在UE自身发生位置的变化等情况下时,可以触发其执行感知功能。Optionally, when the location of the UE itself changes, etc., it may be triggered to execute the sensing function.
