US 2024/0201356 A1 · FIRST AND SECOND ORDER REFLECTION-ASSISTED SENSING

Abstract

A first wireless device may output a sensing signal configuration for performing sensing on a first reflected sensing signal from the first wireless device via a target object and a second reflected sensing signal from a reflective object via the target object based on a set of sensing signals. The first wireless device may transmit the set of sensing signals to the target object and the reflective object. The reflective object may reflect at least one of the set of sensing signals to the target object based on the sensing signal configuration. The first reflected sensing signal and the second reflected sensing signal may be received by the first wireless device in a monostatic configuration or by a second wireless device in a bi-static configuration. The receiving device may calculate a location of the target object based on the sensing signal configuration.
