Claim 0:
1. A method of wireless communication at a first wireless node, comprising:
transmitting, to a second wireless node, capability information indicating a capability of the first wireless node to perform object sensing when operating with carrier aggregation;
communicating a set of sensing signals on a plurality of carriers between the first wireless node and the second wireless node based on the capability information; and
sensing an object based on a set of calculations associated with an aggregated sensing bandwidth of the set of sensing signals;
wherein the sensing the object based on the set of calculations associated with the aggregated sensing bandwidth of the set of sensing signals comprises localizing a position of the object based on the set of calculations associated with the aggregated sensing bandwidth of the set of sensing signals,
wherein the set of calculations comprises at least one of a time of arrival (ToA) associated with the aggregated sensing bandwidth of at least one of the set of sensing signals, an angle of arrival (AoA) associated with the aggregated sensing bandwidth of the at least one of the set of sensing signals, a time difference of arrival (TDoA) between at least two of the set of sensing signals and associated with the aggregated sensing bandwidth of the at least two of the set of sensing signals, or a channel impulse response (CIR) associated with the aggregated sensing bandwidth on at least one communication channel, and
wherein the position comprises at least one of a distance relative to a position of the first wireless node, a distance relative to a position of the second wireless node, a set of coordinates indicating a position of the object with respect to a relative frame of reference, or a set of geographic coordinates.
