To-be-allocated sensing resources include time periods in a time domain, where each of the time periods includes time ranges.
In an embodiment, the user equipment transmits a sensing resource request to the network device, where the sensing resource request includes the characteristic of the sensing service of the user equipment. Then, the user equipment receives information from the network device about the sensing resource used for sensing service, where the information of the sensing resource includes one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals, one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals, and the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals and the one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals; and based on the information of the sensing resource, the user equipment uses the sensing resource to perform sensing service.
When the user equipment executes the sensing service, the transmission of sensing signals and the reception of reflected signals appear in pairs. Therefore, the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals is the same as the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals.
When the first time range/the first time range set for transmitting sensing signals and the second time range/the second time range set for receiving reflected signals belong to the same time period, the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals and the one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals mentioned above is the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals, or the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals.
When the first time range/the first time range set for transmitting sensing signals and the second time range/the second time range set for receiving reflected signals belong to different time periods, the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals and the one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals mentioned above is the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for transmitting sensing signals plus the maximum number of time periods occupied by the one or more time ranges for receiving reflected signals.
In the above embodiments, the sensing resource allocated by the network device and received by the user equipment is a sensing resource suitable for the sensing service of the user equipment. Therefore, when the user equipment uses the sensing resource to execute the sensing service, the user equipment can effectively utilize the sensing resource, which can improve resource utilization rate, and avoid interference between sensing signals.
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a sensing resource usage method, which is performed by a user equipment. The method can be performed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of the present disclosure.
In an embodiment, the user equipment transmits a sensing resource request to the network device, where the sensing resource request includes the characteristic of the sensing service of the user equipment, and then the user equipment receives information of the sensing resource used for the sensing service from the network device, where the sensing resource includes time range(s) for transmitting sensing signal(s) and time range(s) for receiving reflected signal(s). Since the information of the sensing resource does not include the maximum number of time periods occupied by the time range(s) for transmitting sensing signal(s) and the time range(s) for receiving reflected signal(s), i.e. the maximum number of time periods occupied by the time range(s) for transmitting sensing signal(s) and the time range(s) for receiving reflected signal(s) is not received by the user equipment from the network device, the user equipment determines the maximum number of time periods specified in the communication protocol, and according to the time range(s) for transmitting sensing signal(s), the time range(s) for receiving reflected signal(s), and the maximum number of time periods, executes the sensing service by the sensing resource.
In the above embodiments, the sensing resource allocated by the network device and received by the user equipment is a sensing resource suitable for the sensing service of the user equipment. Therefore, when the user equipment uses the sensing resource to execute the sensing service, the user equipment can effectively utilize the sensing resource, which can improve resource utilization rate, and avoid interference between sensing signals. In addition, the user equipment can also determine the maximum number of time periods based on communication protocols, facilitating the execution of the sensing service.

In an embodiment, the user equipment transmits a sensing resource request to the network device, where the sensing resource request includes the characteristic of the sensing service of the user equipment. Then, the user equipment receives information of the sensing resource used for sensing service from the network device and the maximum transmitting power of the user equipment for transmitting sensing signals. Based on the information of the sensing resource, the user equipment uses the sensing resource, and based on the maximum transmitting power, executes the sensing service. The maximum transmitting power here is determined by the network device based on the characteristic of the sensing service, so the maximum transmitting power is suitable for the sensing service. For example, when the sensing distance is short, the maximum transmitting power can be determined as a smaller power; and when the sensing distance is long, the maximum transmitting power can be determined as a larger power.
In the above embodiments, the sensing resource allocated by the network device and received by the user equipment is a sensing resource suitable for the sensing service of the user equipment. Therefore, when the user equipment uses the sensing resource to execute the sensing service, the user equipment can effectively utilize the sensing resource, which can improve resource utilization rate, and avoid interference between sensing signals. In addition, reasonably setting the transmitting power of the sensing signal for the user equipment can help control the power of the user equipment.
