Abstract
Certain example embodiments provide systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for associating sensing information with a user (e.g., a cellular user) by, for example, determining information from both a sensing node and a communication node, then associating the a sensed object and the communication node based on the information. Additionally, or alternatively, some embodiments provide systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for radar and sensing-based positioning.
Claims20
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- receive sensing information from a sensing node;
- determine location information of a communication node;
- and
- associate the sensing information from the sensing node with the communication node based on the location information relating to the communication node.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- transmit, to a network node, an indication of one or more sensing capabilities of the apparatus;
- receive, from the network node, an indication to report location information of a user equipment;
- transmit, to the user equipment, a message, wherein the message is associated with causing the user equipment to transmit a signal;
- receive the signal from the user equipment;
- identify the user equipment as a sensed object based on the signal;
- and
- transmit location information to the network node, wherein the location information identifies a location of the user equipment.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- receive, from a network node, a message, wherein the message is associated with causing the apparatus to transmit a signal, wherein the signal is associated with identifying the apparatus as a sensed object;
- and
- transmit the signal to the network node based on the message.
