APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A SENSING SERVICE IN A WIRELESS NETWORK
Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to: receiving a paging message for a sensing service, wherein the paging message comprises sensing service information; determining whether to reply to the paging message based in part on whether the UE is configured to participate in the sensing service; and transmitting a service request message comprising an indication that the service request message is a response to the paging message for the sensing service.
1 . A user equipment (UE), comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the UE to:
receive a paging message for a sensing service, wherein the paging message comprises sensing service information;
determine whether to reply to the paging message based in part on whether the UE is configured to participate in the sensing service; and
transmit a service request message comprising an indication that the service request message is a response to the paging message for the sensing service.
2 . The UE of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the UE to store sensing service configuration information comprising radio resources for the paging message, permission to participate in the sensing service, or a combination thereof.
3 . The UE of claim 2 , wherein the radio resources are stored in an access stratum (AS) layer and are received from a radio access network (RAN).
4 . The UE of claim 2 , wherein information corresponding to the permission to participate in the sensing service is stored at a non-access stratum (NAS) layer received from a core network device.
5 . The UE of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the UE to determine, based on the stored sensing service configuration information and the received sensing service information in the paging message, whether the UE is allowed to participate in the sensing service in a current location, for a sensing task type, for a sensing task identifier (ID), or a combination thereof.
6 . The UE of claim 1 , wherein the sensing service information in the paging message comprises a requested sensing device type, a sensing task type, a sensing task identifier (ID), or a combination thereof.
7 . The UE of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the UE to establish a radio resource control (RRC) connection with an RRC establishment cause indicating that the RRC connection is established in response to the paging message.
8 . The UE of claim 1 , wherein the paging message is received from a radio access network (RAN).
9 . The UE of claim 1 , wherein the service request message is transmitted to a radio access network (RAN).
10 . A processor for wireless communication, comprising:
at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:
receive a paging message for a sensing service, wherein the paging message comprises sensing service information;
determine whether to reply to the paging message based in part on whether the processor is configured to participate in the sensing service; and
transmit a service request message comprising an indication that the service request message is a response to the paging message for the sensing service.
11 . The processor of claim 10 , wherein the at least one controller is configured to cause the processor to store sensing service configuration information comprising radio resources for the paging message, permission to participate in the sensing service, or a combination thereof.
12 . The processor of claim 11 , wherein the radio resources are stored in an access stratum (AS) layer and are received from a radio access network (RAN).
13 . The processor of claim 11 , wherein information corresponding to the permission to participate in the sensing service is stored at a non-access stratum (NAS) layer received from a core network device.
14 . A method performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving a paging message for a sensing service, wherein the paging message comprises sensing service information;
determining whether to reply to the paging message based in part on whether the UE is configured to participate in the sensing service; and
transmitting a service request message comprising an indication that the service request message is a response to the paging message for the sensing service.
15 . An apparatus for performing a first network function, the apparatus comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the apparatus to:
receive a service request message corresponding to a user equipment (UE), wherein the service request message comprises an indication that the service request message is a response to a paging message for a sensing service;
determine whether the UE is allowed to participate in the sensing service; and
send a response message indicating whether the UE is allowed to participate in the sensing service.
16 . The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to cause the apparatus to receive sensing service related information, and the sensing service related information is received together with the service request message as part of information from radio access network (RAN).
17 . The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the processor is configured to cause the apparatus to exchange information with a second network function, consider sensing service related information, or a combination thereof.
18 . The apparatus of claim 17 , wherein the second network function comprises a sensing function (SF).
