Abstract

Techniques pertaining to further indication for WLAN sensing measurement report in wireless communications are described. A sensing receiver is configured to perform a sensing measurement and generate a sensing measurement report indicating channel state information (CSI) according to the sensing measurement. The sensing measurement report further indicates one or more categories of a frequency response of the sensing receiver without indicating any gain setting of the sensing receiver. The sensing receiver is also configured to transmit, as a sensing responder, the sensing measurement report to a sensing initiator.

Claims (29)

1 . A method, comprising:

performing a sensing measurement by a sensing receiver; and

generating a sensing measurement report indicating channel state information (CSI) according to the sensing measurement, the sensing measurement report further indicating one or more categories of a frequency response of the sensing receiver without indicating any gain setting of the sensing receiver,

wherein the sensing measurement report comprises an additional field that indicates the one or more categories of frequency response of the sensing receiver,

wherein a predetermined value of the additional field indicates that a receiver frequency response category report is not available, and

wherein another value different than the predetermined value of the additional field indicates different categories of a normalized frequency response of the sensing receiver.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the generating of the sensing measurement report comprises assigning a value to the additional field corresponding to the one of one or more categories due to a variation in a normalized frequency response of the sensing receiver.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined value is 0, and wherein the additional field indicates that there is no receiver frequency response category report with 0.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the additional field comprises at least one bit and up to N bits, N≤8.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting, as a sensing responder, the sensing measurement report to a sensing initiator.

6 . A method, comprising:

requesting, by a sensing initiator, a sensing measurement report from a sensing responder; and

receiving, by the sensing initiator, the sensing measurement report indicating channel state information (CSI) according to a sensing measurement performed by a sensing receiver of the sensing responder, the sensing measurement report further indicating one or more categories of a frequency response of the sensing receiver without indicating any gain setting of the sensing receiver,

wherein the sensing measurement report comprises an additional field that indicates the one or more categories of frequency response of the sensing receiver,

wherein a predetermined value of the additional field indicates that a receiver frequency response category report is not available, and

wherein another value different than the predetermined value of the additional field indicates different categories of a normalized frequency response of the sensing receiver.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the predetermined value is 0, and wherein the additional field indicates that there is no receiver frequency response category report with 0.

8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the additional field comprises at least one bit and up to N bits, N≤8.

9 . A device, comprising:

a sensing receiver comprising circuitry configured to perform operations comprising:

performing a sensing measurement;

generating a sensing measurement report indicating channel state information (CSI) according to the sensing measurement, the sensing measurement report further indicating one or more categories of a frequency response of the sensing receiver without indicating any gain setting of the sensing receiver; and

transmitting, as a sensing responder, the sensing measurement report to a sensing initiator,

wherein the sensing measurement report comprises an additional field that indicates the one or more categories of frequency response of the sensing receiver,

wherein a predetermined value of the additional field indicates that a receiver frequency response category report is not available, and

wherein another value different than the predetermined value of the additional field indicates different categories of a normalized frequency response of the sensing receiver.

10 . The device of claim 9 , wherein the predetermined value is 0, and wherein the additional field indicates that there is no receiver frequency response category report with 0.

11 . The device of claim 9 , wherein the additional field comprises at least one bit and up to N bits, N≤8.
