WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM WITH OBJECT DETECTION FUNCTION, OBJECT DETECTION METHOD AND BASE STATION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18026501 titled 'WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM WITH OBJECT DETECTION FUNCTION, OBJECT DETECTION METHOD AND BASE STATION DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

- The patent describes a wireless communication system that can detect objects within a communication area. - The system includes a base station device and a terminal device. - The base station device controls the timing for transmitting a reference signal, which is used to measure the state of a propagation path. - The reference signal is based on a pilot signal received from the terminal device during wireless communication. - The base station device can detect objects within the communication area based on the propagation state information received from the terminal device during wireless sensing. - The terminal device measures propagation state information based on a reference signal received from the base station device. - The system allows for the transmission of the reference signal without degrading the throughput of wireless communication.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a wireless communication system that detects an object inside a communication area including: a base station device; and a terminal device, in which the base station device controls a timing for transmitting a reference signal for measuring a state of a propagation path on the basis of a pilot signal included in a wireless signal received from the terminal device during wireless communication and detects an object inside the communication area on the basis of propagation state information indicating a state of the propagation path received from the terminal device during wireless sensing, and the terminal device transmits, to the base station device, propagation state information measured on the basis of a reference signal received from the base station device. It is thus possible to transmit the reference signal for measuring a state of the propagation path without degrading a throughput of wireless communication.
