Enhancement to sensing by proxy
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced sensing. A device of a sensing by proxy (SBP) initiator may cause to send an SBP request to an access point (AP) to perform a sensing procedure with a first non-AP station device (STA) or a list of non-AP STAs. The device may identify a SBP response received from the AP, wherein the SBP response comprises an indication of performing the sensing procedure. The device may identify a sensing measurement report received from the AP.
1 . A device of a sensing by proxy (SBP) initiator, the device comprising processing circuitry coupled to storage, the processing circuitry configured to:

provide a set of requirements associated with selecting a non-AP STA for the sensing procedure, wherein the AP selects one or more non-AP STAs from the list of non-AP STAs based on the set of requirements, to participate in the sensing procedure;
identify a SBP response received from the AP, wherein the SBP response comprises an indication of performing the sensing procedure; and
identify a sensing measurement report received from the AP.
