Definitions

- AI/ML artificial intelligence and machine learning
- a widely studied "direct" artificial intelligence positioning model uses watermarking technology to attempt to fit the nonlinear relationship between the channel impulse response (CIR) between multiple network devices (such as base stations) and the target device (UE) and the coordinate position of the target device. It has been proven in many different experiments that it can achieve positioning accuracy several times higher than traditional positioning methods.
- CIR channel impulse response
- AI/ML models are data-driven learning algorithms.
- the inference performance of the AI/ML model is often poor due to the poor correlation between the characteristics of the input data and the training data.
- This problem is particularly prominent for the "direct watermark-based" AI/ML wireless positioning technology, because the model usually needs to infer the location of the terminal device based on the channel characteristics between multiple network devices (such as base stations) and terminal devices (such as UE). Once the channel between one of the network devices and the terminal device changes, the input-output relationship learned during training will no longer be applicable. Continuing to use this incorrect correspondence will inevitably result in poor model performance.
- One of the solutions is to use AI/ML models to In an unfamiliar environment, channel measurement data of the current environment is collected to retrain or fine-tune the model to improve the generalization of the model, and/or, if the model performance is found to be poor, channel measurement data of the current environment is collected to supervise the performance of the current model.

Description
本申请涉及通信技术领域。
随着第五代(5G)通信商用化,特别是工业互联网产业的大规模展开,无线通信中终端设备的无线定位需求大幅增加。传统的无线定位基于多种技术,例如TDOA(Time Difference Of Arrival)、E-CID(Enhanced Cell ID)和Multi-RTT(Multi-Round-Trip Time)等,这些传统的定位方法均存在若干固有缺陷,从而导致不同无线环境或场景下终端设备的定位精度较差,尤其是在非视线(NLOS,Non-Light of Sight)较为严重的无线环境,例如室内工厂(InF,Indoor Factory)等环境下,传统定位方法的误差值非常大,通常难以被接受。究其根本原因,传统定位方法很难对存在较强NLOS径下的无线环境进行准确的测量,其得到的测量值本身较理想值存在较大的偏差,从而导致了误差的产生。
近些年,以深度学习为代表的人工智能机器学习(AI/ML)技术发展迅速,并因其强大的非线性拟合能力被应用于多个研究和商用领域。同样,人工智能应用在无线定位的评估性能也较传统方法有着不小的提升。
例如,一种被广为研究的“直接型”人工智能定位模型采用水印技术,试图拟合多个网络设备(例如基站)与目标设备(UE)之间的信道冲击响应(CIR)和目标设备坐标位置之间的非线性关系,在许多不同的试验中被证实可获得高于传统定位方法数倍的定位精度。
然而随着研究的深入,AI/ML模型在无线定位中的应用部署出现了瓶颈,其中一个问题是,AI/ML模型是数据驱动型的学习算法,当基于特定输入数据训练得到的模型部署在陌生环境中时,由于输入数据的特性与训练数据相关性较差,AI/ML模型的推理性能往往不佳,而对于“基于水印技术的直接型”AI/ML无线定位技术来说,这个问题尤为突出,因该模型需要通常基于多个网络设备(例如基站)与终端设备(例如UE)之间的信道特性来推理终端设备的位置,一旦其中的某个网络设备与终端设备之间信道发生变化,则训练时学习到的这种输入输出关系将不再适用,继续使用这种错误的对应关系必然会造成模型性能不佳。
针对以上问题,业界正在探索多种解决途径,其中一种方法是当AI/ML模型进入
陌生环境时,收集当前环境的信道测量数据对模型进行重新训练或精调训练来改善模型的泛化性,和/或,若发现模型性能较差时,收集当前环境的信道测量数据对当前模型进行性能监督。
应该注意,上面对技术背景的介绍只是为了方便对本申请的技术方案进行清楚、完整的说明,并方便本领域技术人员的理解而阐述的。不能仅仅因为这些方案在本申请的背景技术部分进行了阐述而认为上述技术方案为本领域技术人员所公知。
发明内容
但是,发明人发现:AI/ML模型所需的训练数据和/或监督数据包含标签(LABEL,或者也可称为真值(GROUND TRUTH))数据,在无线定位应用中,标签数据对应当前无线环境下终端设备的精确地理位置(2D或3D),或终端设备与网络设备之间的精确的信道测量结果,例如TDOA,RSTD,ToA,AoA,信道LOS/NLOS指示信息等,然而在信道环境较恶劣(例如存在强NLOS径)或终端设备或网络设备本身存在较大测量误差的时候,这些标签数据往往无法被部署AI/ML模型的设备获得。
针对上述问题的至少之一,本申请实施例提供了一种无线定位信息的发送和接收方法以及装置。通过在网络设备和终端设置之间传输用于无线定位的标签数据以及对应的质量相关信息,部署AI/ML模型的设备即使进入陌生环境,也能够根据标签数据的质量相关信息对当前模型优化进行决策,从而能够改善模型的泛化性,提升AI/ML模型无线定位的准确性。

图1是本申请实施例的通信系统的示意图,示意性说明了以终端设备和网络设备为例的情况,如图1所示,通信系统100可以包括网络设备101、终端设备102和定位服务器103。为简单起见,图1仅以一个终端设备和一个网络设备为例进行说明,但本申请实施例不限于此。

在本申请实施例中,可以将待定位的终端设备称为目标设备(target device),将定位服务器的功能称为定位管理功能(LMF,Location Management Function)。LMF可以是对终端定位和管理的网路实体,也可以将具有定位管理功能的位置服务器(location server)简称为LMF。在不引起混淆的情况下,术语“LMF”和“位置服务器”可以互换。关于这些概念以及定位的具体内容,可以参考相关技术。
在本申请实施例中,无线定位信息的发送装置(也可称为信息发送模块或信息发送实体)可以为终端设备(例如UE),也可以为网络设备(例如gNB或核心网的实体(例如LMF或AMF)),或者也可以是以上任一设备的部分功能或实体。无线定位信息的接收装置(也可称为信息接收模块或信息接收实体)可以为网络设备(例如gNB或核心网的实体(例如LMF或AMF)),也可以为终端设备(例如UE),或者也可以是以上任一设备的部分功能或实体。另外,图1以无线定位为例进行了说明,但本申请不限于此,本申请的无线定位信息的传输方案可以应用于其他任何相关场景。
第一方面的实施例
本申请实施例提供一种无线定位信息的发送方法,从信息发送装置一侧进行说明。该信息发送装置可以是终端设备(例如目标设备、PRU或者其他终端),也可以是网络设备(例如基站、或具有LMF功能的位置服务器)。
图2是本申请实施例的无线定位信息的发送方法的一示意图,如图2所示,该方法包括:
201,终端设备获取用于无线定位的标签数据以及所述标签数据对应的质量相关信息;
202,所述终端设备向网络设备发送所述标签数据和/或所述标签数据对应的质量相关信息。
值得注意的是,以上附图2仅对本申请实施例进行了示意性说明,但本申请不限于此。例如可以适当地调整各个操作之间的执行顺序,此外还可以增加其他的一些操作或者减少其中的某些操作。本领域的技术人员可以根据上述内容进行适当地变型,而不仅限于上述附图2的记载。
在一些实施例中,所述标签数据被用于无线定位模型的运行和优化,并且所述质量相关信息被用于辅助所述标签数据对所述无线定位模型进行优化。
在目前用于无线定位的AI/ML模型方案中,无法获取到绝对精确的无线定位标签数据。此外,即使进行数据测量上报,附带上报的内容一般也仅包括:数据错误来源信息、数据获取的时间信息(例如包括绝对时间戳信息和/或SFN帧信息)等,但这些信息不足以对AI/ML模型进行有效的监督、重训练、精调等操作。
在本申请实施例中,在获取标签数据(真值数据)的同时或者之后,还获取相应的质量相关信息作为辅助信息,例如对当前标签数据的数学统计信息、精度估计信息、波束信息等,可以同将这些质量相关信息与标签数据一起通过空口传送给模型部署实体,这些辅助信息可以帮助模型部署实体在训练、推理或监督时作出更精确的判断,例如是否需要舍弃不精准的标签数据样本,或对这些样本进行分类后选择适当的模型进行切换并重新训练。
由此,通过在网络设备和终端设置之间传输用于无线定位的标签数据以及对应的质量相关信息,部署AI/ML模型的设备即使进入陌生环境,也能够根据标签数据的质量相关信息对当前模型优化进行决策,从而能够改善模型的泛化性,提升AI/ML模型无线定位的准确性。
例如,可以选择标签数据质量较好的实体发起数据收集;或者也可以根据当前数据
的质量选择标签数据,进行重新训练或精调训练或性能监督;或者当数据质量较差时选择回退到传统无线定位方法。
在一些实施例中,终端设备可以根据当前定位技术获取准确的标签数据,例如通过使用PRU(Positioning Reference Unit)和其他定位技术如GNSS,WIFI等获取。这些准确定位的资源无法保证在所有环境和所有时刻均能够获取,终端设备可以在能够获取的时候获得这些标签数据,然后上报给网络设备。
此外,终端设备在获取到标签数据之后,可以进行统计、计算、筛选等操作,从而获得这些标签数据的质量相关信息。即,终端设备可以对数据辅助信息的内容进行扩充增强,使得辅助信息包括质量相关信息,并通过空口由数据收集装置(例如UE或PRU)传递给模型部署装置(例如基站或LMF),目的是帮助基站或LMF进行模型相关的各种优化或动作,提高无线定位的精度。
例如,终端设备可以在条件满足的情况下获取标签数据,并通过统计、计算等获得相应的质量相关信息。终端设备可以周期性地上报已获得的标签数据和/或相应的质量相关信息,也可以非周期性地上报已获得的标签数据和/或相应的质量相关信息。
在一些实施例中,所述标签数据包括如下至少之一:位置信息、时间信息、角度信息、视线LOS/非视线NLOS指示信息。但本申请不限于此,标签数据还可以是无线定位的AI/ML模型所需的其他数据。
在一些实施例中,所述质量相关信息包括如下至少之一:误差信息、误差等级或范围信息、置信度信息、信干噪比SINR信息、参考信号接收功率RSRP信息。但本申请不限于此,质量相关信息还可以是其他信息,例如数据来源信息、无线环境信息,再例如状态或统计信息、评估指标信息。
在一些实施例中,标签数据和质量相关信息相对应地获得并上报。例如,针对以上标签数据的每一种,可以包括以上的一种或多种质量相关信息。
例如,标签数据包括位置信息,则终端设备可以获取该位置信息所对应的以下任意一种或多种:误差信息、误差等级或范围信息、置信度信息、SINR信息、RSRP信息。再例如,标签数据包括时间信息,则终端设备可以获取该时间信息所对应的以下任意一种或多种:误差信息、误差等级或范围信息、置信度信息、SINR信息、RSRP信息。再例如,标签数据包括角度信息,则终端设备可以获取该角度信息所对应的以下任意一种或多种:误差信息、误差等级或范围信息、置信度信息、SINR信息、RSRP信息。
以位置信息为例,无线环境中的各UE可以在适宜的无线信道条件下通过各种无线
定位方法获得自身的位置信息,将该位置信息作为标签数据,PRU可以直接获得自身的位置信息,将该位置信息作为标签数据;此外UE或PRU可以计算出该标签数据的质量相关信息,具体如何计算可以参考后面的实施例。
例如,当标签数据是位置信息,质量相关信息是误差信息时,可以通过在Common IEsProvideLocationInformation增加域来实现,如表1所示,例如可以增加标签数据的误差信息的反馈域。
表1
再例如,也可以新定义AI/ML专属位置信息IE(例如NR-DL-AI/ML-ProvideLocation Information),并将待反馈信息作为一个域放在AI/ML专属位置信息IE的内部,如表2所示,例如可以在AI/ML专属位置信息IE中增加标签数据的误差信息的反馈域。
表2
以上以LPP信令的IE为例进行了示例性说明,本申请不限于此。
以下再以误差信息为例进行示例性说明。例如,该误差信息可以为:当前采集到的数据与准确数据之间的差值;其中准确数据的获取可以通过非3GPP的无线定位方法如GNSS、WIFI或LIDAR等获取,或利用当前无线环境中的PRU获取,也可以通过信道条件良好时的传统定位方法或AI/ML方法获得,具体方法由数据收集实体的实现算法进行判定。
例如,精确的UE位置数据坐标为(x,y),而当前获取到的UE位置数据坐标为(x1,y1),则UE可上报如下的误差信息:
-分别上报准确坐标和获取坐标的在两个维度上的差值(x1-x,y1-y),类型可选绝对值或相对值;
-只上报准确坐标和获取坐标的距离(如欧式距离,马氏距离等),可以通过平方根或其他数学方法得到;
-对于三维的坐标位置信息,可以在3个维度上分别计算误差信息,也可以选择其中的某一维或某两维上的误差信息进行计算。
相应地,当标签数据为时间信息和/或角度信息时,也可上报各自相应的误差信息。表3示出了作为标签数据的误差信息的反馈域的一个示例。
表3
对于收集到的标签数据为非位置坐标信息,也可以给出相应的误差或差值信息。例如,针对LOS/NLOS的概率信息,准确值为X%,而当前采集到的值为X1%,则误差信息可定义为(X-X1)%。
以下再以误差等级或误差范围为例进行示例性说明。例如,误差信息不一定能被设备精确地计算得到,可能只能得到一个大致估算的误差值,即误差范围或误差等级。
例如,UE可以通过信令(如LPP)向LMF反馈数据大致的误差范围。当数据为位置信息时,误差范围可以表征为以米(m),厘米(cm)等长度单位表征的数字范围,如误差范围0.5m,10cm等,可以量化为一些常见的选项,例如以1米为间隔。当数据为时间信息(例如TDOA,RSTD等)时,可以使用时间单位作为间隔;当数据为角度信息时可以类似地处理。
表4示出了作为标签数据的误差范围的反馈域的一个示例。
表4
再例如,UE可以通过信令(如LPP)向LMF反馈误差等级。例如,将不同等级的误差值进行量化,通过数字(如等级1,等级2…)或具有表征意义的字符(如good,medium,bad等)表示。误差等级具体对应的误差范围或对后续过程的影响,可以由具体实现的技术决定。
表5示出了作为标签数据的误差等级的反馈域的一个示例。
表5
对于质量相关信息为置信度信息的情况,例如,置信度信息可以反馈当前数据质量的概率分布,例如通过统计多个历史数据质量信息计算概率来预估当前数据质量信息,具体如何计算可以参考相关技术。
对于质量相关信息为SINR信息的情况,例如,UE或PRU可以通过信令(如LPP)向LMF反馈数据SINR的信息。SINR的具体计算方法可由UE通过信道测量及自身算法实现。在上报给LMF的时候,可以选择为每个数据上报对应的SINR值,也可以在一个上报周期内对多个数据只上报一个SINR值。
表6示出了作为标签数据的误差等级的反馈域的另一个示例,示出了SINR的情况。
表6
对于质量相关信息为RSRP信息的情况,例如,UE或PRU可以通过信令(如LPP)向LMF反馈数据RSRP信息。UE或PRU可对用于获取标签数据的参考信号进行信道测量获取对应的RSRP信息。
表7示出了作为标签数据的误差等级的反馈域的另一个示例,示出了RSRP的情况。
表7
以上示例性说明了反映标签数据质量的直接信息,以下再对反映标签数据质量的间接信息进行示例性说明。
在一些实施例中,所述标签数据包括位置信息,所述标签数据对应的质量相关信息包括:所述标签数据的来源信息,和/或,获取所述标签数据时所述终端设备所在的无线环境信息。
例如,除了以上提到的质量相关信息,终端设备还可以获取数据来源信息、无线环境信息等。例如,UE可以通过各种无线定位方法获得自身的位置信息,将该位置信息作为标签数据,则该标签数据的来源信息(例如所用定位方法的标识等)可以作为质量相关信息。再例如,UE可以通过WIFI获得自身的位置信息,将该位置信息作为标签数
据,则该WIFI场景、区域、波束等与环境相关的信息可以作为质量相关信息。
例如,UE可以收集并上报数据来源信息。表8以位置信息为例,示例性示出了数据来源信息的一个示例。
表8
如表8所示,可增加例如PRU类型、传统定位方法、AI/ML方法等数据来源信息。
再例如,在用于定位的无线信道环境中,基于地理位置、信道特征等的不同,可能会产生一些地理区域、场景、波束等相关信息,可以进行一定的分类并用标识信息进行
区分(例如,场景ID、波束ID、区域ID、NLOS等级ID等);这些辅助信息可以随同数据一起由UE经LPP信令发送给LMF,作为判断当前数据是否可用以及如何使用的质量相关信息的一部分。
表9示例性示出了辅助信息的一个示例。
表9
上述信息可以通过LPP信令的“ProvideLocationInformation”承载,也可以通过LPP信令的“ProvideAssistanceData”承载,也可以通过其他LPP信令或非LPP信令承载;本申请不限于此。
在一些实施例中,所述标签数据包括LOS/NLOS指示信息,所述标签数据对应的质量相关信息包括:用于计算网络设备与终端设备之间无线信道的LOS/NLOS状态或统计信息(如概率)的配置信息,和/或,评估指标信息。例如,所述评估指标信息包括计算精度信息、处理速度信息和/或计算复杂度信息。
例如,除了以上提到的质量相关信息,终端设备还可以获取状态信息或统计信息、评估指标信息等。例如,UE可以计算出LOS/NLOS指示信息,例如LOS/NLOS概率信息;将LOS/NLOS概率作为标签数据,则计算该LOS/NLOS概率的实现算法相关的信息作为质量相关信息。
LOS/NLOS概率也可作为某一类AI/ML模型的标签数据,而这一类数据的获取很大程度上取决于实体计算所用的算法等。UE可以通过LPP信令向LMF传递关于LOS/NLOS计算时所使用的算法相关信息,不同的算法可以对应不同的数据精确度。
例如,网络设备和终端设备约定可支持的LOS/NLOS概率计算方法列表,并定义相应的INDEX,不同算法或者不同实施方法对应不同的INDEX和数据质量/适用性。在数据上报的同时,终端设备可选择将上述INDEX一起上报。
再例如,网络设备可以定义一些算法相关的具体评估指标,例如算法模块处理速度、计算复杂度等。终端设备可以选择将上述评估指标信息传送给网络设备,由网络设备综合判断当前算法和数据质量/适用性的对应关系。
在一些实施例中,终端设备可以针对每个标签数据获取相应的质量相关信息,但不限于此。在一些实施例中,所述终端设备针对多个标签数据,获取并发送所述多个标签数据所对应的质量相关信息。
例如,所述终端设备对一段时间内的全部或者一部分标签数据进行统计,获得整体(全部或者一部分标签数据)所对应的质量相关信息。这些标签数据可以是这段时间内连续获得的数据,也可以是一些经过筛选的离散的数据,等等,本申请不限于此。
在一些实施例中,所述多个标签数据所对应的质量相关信息包括如下至少之一:所述多个标签数据的误差范围信息、所述多个标签数据的最大误差、所述多个标签数据的最小误差、所述多个标签数据的平均误差、所述多个标签数据的中位数误差、所述多个标签数据的误差置信度。
由此,通过上报多个标签数据所对应的质量相关信息,不仅可以提升无线定位的准确性,而且能够减少上报的数据量,进一步降低空口传输开销。
例如,由于AI/ML数据通常总量较为庞大,尤其是在模型训练阶段,如果对每一组标签数据均附加质量相关信息,上报可能会使上行资源消耗过大,因此可以将一段时间内收集的整批数据的整体误差信息进行统一上报。
例如,上报内容可以是如下至少之一:
-最小或最大误差范围信息;
-总体样本内最大误差信息、最小误差信息、平均误差信息、或者中位数误差值信息;
-整体误差置信度信息,该置信度信息反映样本整体的误差统计信息;例如,可以设置一个误差门限,并统计小于该误差门限的样本数占总体样本数的百分比,来反映整
体数据的置信度信息。
表10示出了作为标签数据的批量误差等级的反馈域的一个示例。
表10
在一些实施例中,所述终端设备接收来自所述网络设备的指示信息;并且,所述终端设备根据所述指示信息向所述网络设备发送所述标签数据和/或所述标签数据对应的质量相关信息。
由此,终端设备在接收到网络设备的指示信息的情况下,再上报标签数据和/或质量相关信息,可以按需进行上报,在提升无线定位的准确性的同时,能够减少上报的数据量,进一步降低空口传输开销。

302,终端设备获取(计算、统计、筛选等)标签数据对应的质量相关信息;
303,终端设备接收来自网络设备的指示信息;
304,所述终端设备根据该指示信息,向网络设备发送所述标签数据和/或所述标签数据对应的质量相关信息。
值得注意的是,以上附图3仅对本申请实施例进行了示意性说明,但本申请不限于此。例如可以适当地调整各个操作之间的执行顺序,此外还可以增加其他的一些操作或者减少其中的某些操作。本领域的技术人员可以根据上述内容进行适当地变型,而不仅限于上述附图3的记载。
在一些实施例中,所述终端设备可以根据所述指示信息一起发送所述标签数据和所述质量相关信息;或者,所述终端设备也可以根据所述指示信息先发送所述标签数据,再发送所述质量相关信息;或者,所述终端设备也可以根据所述指示信息先发送所述质量相关信息,再发送所述标签数据;或者,所述终端设备也可以根据所述指示信息发送所述标签数据(例如在本次传输中不发送对应的质量相关信息);或者,所述终端设备也可以根据所述指示信息发送所述质量相关信息(例如在本次传输中不发送对应的标签数据)。
在一些实施例中,所述指示信息指示所述质量相关信息的内容、范围或格式;本申请不限于此。此外,所述指示信息包括用于选择所述标签数据和/或所述质量相关信息的门限信息和/或计数信息和/或时间信息。终端设备接收到该指示信息后,可以按照指示信息的要求准备标签数据和/或质量相关信息并上报给网络设备。
如图3所示,该方法还可以包括:
305,所述终端设备向所述网络设备发送反馈信息。
例如,所述反馈信息包括如下至少之一:传输完成确认信息、传输未完成确认信息、传输未完成原因信息、重新传输请求信息;本申请不限于此。
以下再示例性说明指示信息。例如,网络设备(例如LMF)也可在指示数据上报的时候对数据质量进行筛选,例如指定一些质量门限或者定时器。可以包含上述实施例中给出的各种质量相关信息,例如:数据最大误差门限、最大误差等级门限、批量数据最大误差率门限等。再例如,网络设备还可以指定期望获取数据对应的数据源、场景ID、区域ID、NLOS等级ID、波束ID等信息。
在一些例子中,网络设备可以直接指定关于数据质量相关信息的具体门限值,例如:指定2D位置坐标最大误差值不得超过1米、最大误差等级不超过第三级等,具体定义取决于具体实现方式。
在一些例子中,网络设备还可以通过设定计数器的方式,对符合质量信息的数据样本量进行控制。例如,设定最小样本量为1000,则终端设备至少收集到符合要求数据质量的1000个样本之后才可以进行上报。
在一些例子中,网络设备还可以通过设定计时器的方式,对收集信息的时间段进行控制。例如,定时器设置为5ms,则5ms之外收集到的数据不进行上报。
上述门限信息、定时器、计数器可以组合使用,也可以单独使用。
在一些例子中,网络设备可以同时定义终端设备在无法满足数据要求时的后续动作,例如,要求终端设备丢弃不满足质量要求的数据、重新收集数据、或给定额外信息对数据进行进一步的筛选。
在一些例子中,终端设备在收到网络设备给出的指示信息后,可以对网络设备进行信息反馈,反馈内容可以包括:数据及辅助信息传输完成/未完成的确认信息、未完成的附加原因信息等。
