Title: User equipment capability for wireless sensing

Description:
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication and to techniques and apparatuses for a user equipment (UE) capability for wireless sensing. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messaging, and broadcasts. Typical wireless communication systems may employ multiple-access technologies capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., bandwidth, transmit power, and/or the like). Examples of such multiple-access technologies include code division multiple access (CDMA) systems, time division multiple access (TDMA) systems, frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) systems, orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) systems, single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems, time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) systems, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). LTE/LTE-Advanced is a set of enhancements to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) mobile standard promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). 
     A wireless network may include a number of base stations (BSs) that can support communication for a number of user equipment (UEs). A user equipment (UE) may communicate with a base station (BS) via the downlink and uplink. The downlink (or forward link) refers to the communication link from the BS to the UE, and the uplink (or reverse link) refers to the communication link from the UE to the BS. As will be described in more detail herein, a BS may be referred to as a Node B, a gNB, an access point (AP), a radio head, a transmit receive point (TRP), a New Radio (NR) BS, a 5G Node B, and/or the like. 
     The above multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that enables different user equipment to communicate on a municipal, national, regional, and even global level. New Radio (NR), which may also be referred to as 5G, is a set of enhancements to the LTE mobile standard promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). NR is designed to better support mobile broadband Internet access by improving spectral efficiency, lowering costs, improving services, making use of new spectrum, and better integrating with other open standards using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with a cyclic prefix (CP) (CP-OFDM) on the downlink (DL), using CP-OFDM and/or SC-FDM (e.g., also known as discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-s-OFDM)) on the uplink (UL), as well as supporting beamforming, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology, and carrier aggregation. As the demand for mobile broadband access continues to increase, further improvements in LTE, NR, and other radio access technologies remain useful.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Various aspects of the disclosure are described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. This disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to any specific structure or function presented throughout this disclosure. Rather, these aspects are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. Based on the teachings herein, one skilled in the art should appreciate that the scope of the disclosure is intended to cover any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein, whether implemented independently of or combined with any other aspect of the disclosure. For example, an apparatus may be implemented or a method may be practiced using any number of the aspects set forth herein. In addition, the scope of the disclosure is intended to cover such an apparatus or method which is practiced using other structure, functionality, or structure and functionality in addition to or other than the various aspects of the disclosure set forth herein. It should be understood that any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein may be embodied by one or more elements of a claim. 
     Several aspects of telecommunication systems will now be presented with reference to various apparatuses and techniques. These apparatuses and techniques will be described in the following detailed description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, modules, components, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, and/or the like (collectively referred to as “elements”). These elements may be implemented using hardware, software, or combinations thereof. Whether such elements are implemented as hardware or software depends upon the particular application and design constraints imposed on the overall system. 
     It should be noted that while aspects may be described herein using terminology commonly associated with a 5G or NR radio access technologies (RAT), aspects of the present disclosure can be applied to other RATs, such as a 3G RAT, a 4G RAT, and/or a RAT subsequent to 5G (e.g., 6G). 
       FIG.  1    is a diagram illustrating an example of a wireless network  100 , in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. The wireless network  100  may be or may include elements of a 5G (NR) network, an LTE network, and/or the like. The wireless network  100  may include a number of base stations  110  (shown as BS  110   a , BS  110   b , BS  110   c , and BS  110   d ) and other network entities. A base station (BS) is an entity that communicates with user equipment (UEs) and may also be referred to as an NR BS, a Node B, a gNB, a 5G node B (NB), an access point, a transmit receive point (TRP), and/or the like. Each BS may provide communication coverage for a particular geographic area. In 3GPP, the term “cell” can refer to a coverage area of a BS and/or a BS subsystem serving this coverage area, depending on the context in which the term is used. 
     A BS may provide communication coverage for a macro cell, a pico cell, a femto cell, and/or another type of cell. A macro cell may cover a relatively large geographic area (e.g., several kilometers in radius) and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscription. A pico cell may cover a relatively small geographic area and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscription. A femto cell may cover a relatively small geographic area (e.g., a home) and may allow restricted access by UEs having association with the femto cell (e.g., UEs in a closed subscriber group (CSG)). A BS for a macro cell may be referred to as a macro BS. A BS for a pico cell may be referred to as a pico BS. A BS for a femto cell may be referred to as a femto BS or a home BS. In the example shown in  FIG.  1   , a BS  110   a  may be a macro BS for a macro cell  102   a , a BS  110   b  may be a pico BS for a pico cell  102   b , and a BS  110   c  may be a femto BS for a femto cell  102   c . A BS may support one or multiple (e.g., three) cells. The terms “eNB”, “base station”, “NR BS”, “gNB”, “TRP”, “AP”, “node B”, “5G NB”, and “cell” may be used interchangeably herein. 
     In some aspects, a cell may not necessarily be stationary, and the geographic area of the cell may move according to the location of a mobile BS. In some aspects, the BSs may be interconnected to one another and/or to one or more other BSs or network nodes (not shown) in the wireless network  100  through various types of backhaul interfaces such as a direct physical connection, a virtual network, and/or the like using any suitable transport network. 
     Wireless network  100  may also include relay stations. A relay station is an entity that can receive a transmission of data from an upstream station (e.g., a BS or a UE) and send a transmission of the data to a downstream station (e.g., a UE or a BS). A relay station may also be a UE that can relay transmissions for other UEs. In the example shown in  FIG.  1   , a relay station  110   d  may communicate with macro BS  110   a  and a UE  120   d  in order to facilitate communication between BS  110   a  and UE  120   d . A relay station may also be referred to as a relay BS, a relay base station, a relay, and/or the like. 
     Wireless network  100  may be a heterogeneous network that includes BSs of different types, e.g., macro BSs, pico BSs, femto BSs, relay BSs, and/or the like. These different types of BSs may have different transmit power levels, different coverage areas, and different impacts on interference in wireless network  100 . For example, macro BSs may have a high transmit power level (e.g., 5 to 40 watts) whereas pico BSs, femto BSs, and relay BSs may have lower transmit power levels (e.g., 0.1 to 2 watts). 
     A network controller  130  may couple to a set of BSs and may provide coordination and control for these BSs. Network controller  130  may communicate with the BSs via a backhaul. The BSs may also communicate with one another, e.g., directly or indirectly via a wireless or wireline backhaul. 
     UEs  120  (e.g.,  120   a ,  120   b ,  120   c ) may be dispersed throughout wireless network  100 , and each UE may be stationary or mobile. A UE may also be referred to as an access terminal, a terminal, a mobile station, a subscriber unit, a station, and/or the like. A UE may be a cellular phone (e.g., a smart phone), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a wireless modem, a wireless communication device, a handheld device, a laptop computer, a cordless phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a tablet, a camera, a gaming device, a netbook, a smartbook, an ultrabook, a medical device or equipment, biometric sensors/devices, wearable devices (smart watches, smart clothing, smart glasses, smart wrist bands, smart jewelry (e.g., smart ring, smart bracelet)), an entertainment device (e.g., a music or video device, or a satellite radio), a vehicular component or sensor, smart meters/sensors, industrial manufacturing equipment, a global positioning system device, or any other suitable device that is configured to communicate via a wireless or wired medium. 
     Some UEs may be considered machine-type communication (MTC) or evolved or enhanced machine-type communication (eMTC) UEs. MTC and eMTC UEs include, for example, robots, drones, remote devices, sensors, meters, monitors, location tags, and/or the like, that may communicate with a base station, another device (e.g., remote device), or some other entity. A wireless node may provide, for example, connectivity for or to a network (e.g., a wide area network such as Internet or a cellular network) via a wired or wireless communication link. Some UEs may be considered Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, and/or may be implemented as NB-IoT (narrowband internet of things) devices. Some UEs may be considered a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE). UE  120  may be included inside a housing that houses components of UE  120 , such as processor components, memory components, and/or the like. In some aspects, the processor components and the memory components may be coupled together. For example, the processor components (e.g., one or more processors) and the memory components (e.g., a memory) may be operatively coupled, communicatively coupled, electronically coupled, electrically coupled, and/or the like. 
     In general, any number of wireless networks may be deployed in a given geographic area. Each wireless network may support a particular RAT and may operate on one or more frequencies. A RAT may also be referred to as a radio technology, an air interface, and/or the like. A frequency may also be referred to as a carrier, a frequency channel, and/or the like. Each frequency may support a single RAT in a given geographic area in order to avoid interference between wireless networks of different RATs. In some cases, NR or 5G RAT networks may be deployed. 
     In some aspects, two or more UEs  120  (e.g., shown as UE  120   a  and UE  120   e ) may communicate directly using one or more sidelink channels (e.g., without using a base station  110  as an intermediary to communicate with one another). For example, the UEs  120  may communicate using peer-to-peer (P2P) communications, device-to-device (D2D) communications, a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) protocol (e.g., which may include a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) protocol, a vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) protocol, and/or the like), a mesh network, and/or the like. In this case, the UE  120  may perform scheduling operations, resource selection operations, and/or other operations described elsewhere herein as being performed by the base station  110 . 
     As indicated above,  FIG.  1    is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to  FIG.  1   . 
       FIG.  2    is a diagram illustrating an example  200  of a base station  110  in communication with a UE  120  in a wireless network  100 , in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Base station  110  may be equipped with T antennas  234   a  through  234   t , and UE  120  may be equipped with R antennas  252   a  through  252   r , where in general T ≥ 1 and R ≥ 1. 
     At base station  110 , a transmit processor  220  may receive data from a data source  212  for one or more UEs, select one or more modulation and coding schemes (MCS) for each UE based at least in part on channel quality indicators (CQIs) received from the UE, process (e.g., encode and modulate) the data for each UE based at least in part on the MCS(s) selected for the UE, and provide data symbols for all UEs. Transmit processor  220  may also process system information (e.g., for semi-static resource partitioning information (SRPI) and/or the like) and control information (e.g., CQI requests, grants, upper layer signaling, and/or the like) and provide overhead symbols and control symbols. Transmit processor  220  may also generate reference symbols for reference signals (e.g., a cell-specific reference signal (CRS), a demodulation reference signal (DMRS), and/or the like) and synchronization signals (e.g., the primary synchronization signal (PSS) and secondary synchronization signal (SSS)). A transmit (TX) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) processor  230  may perform spatial processing (e.g., precoding) on the data symbols, the control symbols, the overhead symbols, and/or the reference symbols, if applicable, and may provide T output symbol streams to T modulators (MODs)  232   a  through  232   t . Each modulator  232  may process a respective output symbol stream (e.g., for OFDM and/or the like) to obtain an output sample stream. Each modulator  232  may further process (e.g., convert to analog, amplify, filter, and upconvert) the output sample stream to obtain a downlink signal. T downlink signals from modulators  232   a  through  232   t  may be transmitted via T antennas  234   a  through  234   t , respectively. 
     At UE  120 , antennas  252   a  through  252   r  may receive the downlink signals from base station  110  and/or other base stations and may provide received signals to demodulators (DEMODs)  254   a  through  254   r , respectively. Each demodulator  254  may condition (e.g., filter, amplify, downconvert, and digitize) a received signal to obtain input samples. Each demodulator  254  may further process the input samples (e.g., for OFDM and/or the like) to obtain received symbols. A MIMO detector  256  may obtain received symbols from all R demodulators  254   a  through  254   r , perform MIMO detection on the received symbols if applicable, and provide detected symbols. A receive processor  258  may process (e.g., demodulate and decode) the detected symbols, provide decoded data for UE  120  to a data sink  260 , and provide decoded control information and system information to a controller/processor  280 . A channel processor may determine reference signal received power (RSRP), received signal strength indicator (RSSI), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), channel quality indicator (CQI), and/or the like. In some aspects, one or more components of UE  120  may be included in a housing  284 . 
     Network controller  130  may include communication unit  294 , controller/processor  290 , and memory  292 . Network controller  130  may include, for example, one or more devices in a core network. Network controller  130  may communicate with base station  110  via communication unit  294 . 
     On the uplink, at UE  120 , a transmit processor  264  may receive and process data from a data source  262  and control information (e.g., for reports that include RSRP, RSSI, RSRQ, CQI, and/or the like) from controller/processor  280 . Transmit processor  264  may also generate reference symbols for one or more reference signals. The symbols from transmit processor  264  may be precoded by a TX MIMO processor  266  if applicable, further processed by modulators  254   a  through  254   r  (e.g., for DFT-s-OFDM, CP-OFDM, and/or the like), and transmitted to base station  110 . In some aspects, the UE  120  includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna(s)  252 , modulators and/or demodulators  254 , MIMO detector  256 , receive processor  258 , transmit processor  264 , and/or TX MIMO processor  266 . The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., controller/processor  280 ) and memory  282  to perform aspects of any of the methods described herein, for example, as described with reference to  FIGS.  3 - 10   . 
     At base station  110 , the uplink signals from UE  120  and other UEs may be received by antennas  234 , processed by demodulators  232 , detected by a MIMO detector  236  if applicable, and further processed by a receive processor  238  to obtain decoded data and control information sent by UE  120 . Receive processor  238  may provide the decoded data to a data sink  239  and the decoded control information to controller/processor  240 . Base station  110  may include communication unit  244  and communicate to network controller  130  via communication unit  244 . Base station  110  may include a scheduler  246  to schedule UEs  120  for downlink and/or uplink communications. In some aspects, the base station  110  includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna(s)  234 , modulators and/or demodulators  232 , MIMO detector  236 , receive processor  238 , transmit processor  220 , and/or TX MIMO processor  230 . The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., controller/processor  240 ) and memory  242  to perform aspects of any of the methods described herein, for example, as described with reference to  FIGS.  3 - 10   . 
     Controller/processor  240  of base station  110 , controller/processor  280  of UE  120 , and/or any other component(s) of  FIG.  2    may perform one or more techniques associated with UE capability signaling for a wireless signaling operation, as described in more detail elsewhere herein. For example, controller/processor  240  of base station  110 , controller/processor  280  of UE  120 , and/or any other component(s) of  FIG.  2    may perform or direct operations of, for example, process  900  of  FIG.  9   , process  1000  of  FIG.  10   , and/or other processes as described herein. Memories  242  and  282  may store data and program codes for base station  110  and UE  120 , respectively. In some aspects, memory  242  and/or memory  282  may include a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions (e.g., code, program code, and/or the like) for wireless communication. For example, the one or more instructions, when executed (e.g., directly, or after compiling, converting, interpreting, and/or the like) by one or more processors of the base station  110  and/or the UE  120 , may cause the one or more processors, the UE  120 , and/or the base station  110  to perform or direct operations of, for example, process  900  of  FIG.  9   , process  1000  of  FIG.  10   , and/or other processes as described herein. In some aspects, executing instructions may include running the instructions, converting the instructions, compiling the instructions, interpreting the instructions, and/or the like. 
     In some aspects, UE  120  may include means for receiving a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation; means for transmitting, based at least in part on the request, the capability information; means for performing the wireless sensing operation based at least in part on the capability information and/or the like. In some aspects, such means may include one or more components of UE  120  described in connection with  FIG.  2   , such as controller/processor  280 , transmit processor  264 , TX MIMO processor  266 , MOD  254 , antenna  252 , DEMOD  254 , MIMO detector  256 , receive processor  258 , and/or the like. 
     In some aspects, base station  110  may include means for transmitting, to a user equipment, a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation; means for receiving, based at least in part on the request, the capability information; means for configuring the user equipment to perform the wireless sensing operation based at least in part on the capability information; and/or the like. In some aspects, such means may include one or more components of base station  110  described in connection with  FIG.  2   , such as antenna  234 , DEMOD  232 , MIMO detector  236 , receive processor  238 , controller/processor  240 , transmit processor  220 , TX MIMO processor  230 , MOD  232 , antenna  234 , and/or the like. 
     While blocks in  FIG.  2    are illustrated as distinct components, the functions described above with respect to the blocks may be implemented in a single hardware, software, or combination component or in various combinations of components. For example, the functions described with respect to the transmit processor  264 , the receive processor  258 , and/or the TX MIMO processor  266  may be performed by or under the control of processor  280 . 
     As indicated above,  FIG.  2    is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to  FIG.  2   . 
     A wireless communication device may perform a wireless sensing operation, for example, to support imaging of an environment associated with the wireless communication device. For example, higher frequency bands (e.g., millimeter wave (mmW or mmWave) bands, terahertz (THz) bands, and/or the like) may provide a high bandwidth and a large aperture for the determination of accurate range information, Doppler information, angle information, and/or the like, in comparison to lower frequency bands. A wireless sensing operation may include transmission of a waveform by a transmission component of a wireless communication device, sensing of reflected signals by a reception component of the wireless communication device, signal processing to correlate transmitted signals with received signals, and processing to identify an object, action, and/or the like. Wireless sensing may be useful for industrial Internet of Things (IoT), augmented reality, virtual reality, automotive applications, gaming applications, touchless interaction, and/or the like. Wireless sensing can be performed on the downlink (e.g., access point based radar sensing to determine a person’s motions or actions) and on the uplink (e.g., UE based proximity sensing for user/machine interaction or awareness of other information). 
     Certain challenges may arise in wireless sensing operations. As one example, a wireless sensing operation may involve switching or tuning between a radio frequency (RF) configuration associated with the wireless sensing operation and an RF configuration associated with communication of the wireless communication device. Different wireless communication devices may be capable of switching on different time scales. For example, a less sophisticated wireless communication device may only be capable of switching on a slot level or even a super-slot level of granularity, whereas a more sophisticated wireless communication device may be capable of switching on a symbol level. Furthermore, as a subcarrier spacing becomes wider, a corresponding slot length may become shorter. Therefore, different UEs may be capable of wireless sensing operations at different minimum time scales and different bandwidths. Similarly, wireless communication device capabilities may differ with regard to sensing granularity levels (e.g., a resolution at which a wireless communication device can determine distance, velocity, or angle), a range of a wireless sensing operation, a bandwidth usable for a sensing operation, a power control level associated with a wireless sensing operation, one or more hardware constraints associated with a wireless sensing operation, and/or the like. Since a base station may rely on a UE’s wireless sensing operation to perform certain network tasks, an inaccurate understanding of the UE’s wireless sensing capabilities may lead to wasted resources of the UE in being configured to perform a wireless sensing operation that the UE is incapable of performing, and wasted resources of the base station in sub-optimally or erroneously configuring a UE to perform wireless sensing operations that are outside of or poorly suited for the capabilities of the UE. 
     Some techniques and apparatuses described herein provide capability signaling in connection with a wireless sensing operation. For example, some techniques and apparatuses described herein provide for a network entity (e.g., a BS  110  and/or the like) to request capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation, and for a UE (or another form of wireless communication device) to provide the capability information associated with the wireless sensing operation. The capability information may identify, for example, whether the UE is capable of the wireless sensing operation, a sensing mode associated with time division duplexing (TDD) multiplexing for the wireless sensing operation, a waveform for a signal associated with the wireless sensing operation, a sensing granularity associated with the wireless sensing operation, a range associated with the wireless sensing operation, a sensing bandwidth associated with the wireless sensing operation, a power control parameter associated with the wireless sensing operation, or a hardware constraint associated with the wireless sensing operation. In some aspects, the base station may configure the UE to perform a wireless sensing operation based at least in part on the capability information. In this way, a UE can inform a base station of wireless sensing capabilities of the UE, which enables improved utilization of wireless sensing resources and reduces the likelihood of incompatibility between a UE’s wireless sensing capability and a configured wireless sensing operation. 
       FIG.  3    is a diagram illustrating an example  300  of signaling associated with a UE capability for a wireless sensing operation, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. As shown, example  300  includes a UE  120  and a BS  110 . While the operations described herein are primarily described as being performed by a UE and a corresponding BS, these operations can be performed by any wireless device and any corresponding network entity. 
     As shown by reference number  305 , the BS  110  may provide, to the UE  120 , a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation. For example, the BS  110  may provide the request using radio resource control (RRC) signaling, a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE), downlink control information (DCI), a broadcast message, and/or the like. The request for capability information may indicate that the UE  120  is to transmit capability information that indicates one or more capabilities of the UE  120 , relating to a wireless communication operation, to the BS  110 . In some aspects, the request for capability information may indicate one or more particular capabilities for which the UE  120  is to provide capability information. In some aspects, the request for capability information may indicate that the UE  120  is to provide capability information for all capabilities of the UE  120  related to the wireless sensing operation. 
     As shown by reference number  310 , the UE  120  may provide capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation. For example, the UE  120  may provide the capability information via RRC signaling, a MAC-CE, control information, and/or the like. Reference numbers  315  through  350  show capabilities that can be indicated in the capability information. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate all of the capabilities shown by reference numbers  315  through  350 . In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a subset of the capabilities shown by reference numbers  315  through  350 . For example, the capability information may indicate capabilities requested by the BS  110 , capabilities of which the UE  120  is capable, and/or the like. The capabilities are described in turn below. 
     As shown by reference number  315 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate whether the UE  120  is capable of a wireless sensing operation. For example, the capability information may include a bit indicating whether the UE  120  is capable of the wireless sensing operation. In some aspects, the capability information may include multiple bits indicating, for example, a level of wireless sensing operation of which the UE  120  is capable. For example, a first set of bits may indicate a first level (e.g., a lowest-complexity or lowest-level wireless sensing operation), a second set of bits may indicate a second level (e.g., a wireless sensing operation that is more complex or higher-level than the first level), and so on. 
     As shown by reference number  320 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a sensing mode associated with TDD multiplexing for the wireless sensing operation. For example, the wireless sensing operation may be TDD multiplexed with a communication of the UE  120 , in that the UE  120  may switch between a frequency and/or configuration associated with the wireless sensing operation and a frequency and/or configuration associated with the communication. Different UEs may be associated with different capabilities with regard to TDD multiplexing of wireless sensing operations and communications. The capability information may indicate one or more sensing modes corresponding to one or more TDD multiplexing configurations that the UE  120  is capable of performing for a wireless sensing operation. Examples are provided in  FIGS.  4  and  5   . 
       FIG.  4    is a diagram illustrating an example  400  of a symbol-level sensing mode and an example  410  of a slot-level sensing mode for a wireless sensing operation, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. As shown in the example  400 , if the UE  120  is associated with a symbol-level sensing mode (corresponding to a symbol-granularity TDD multiplexing capability), the UE  120  may perform symbol-level tuning between symbols associated with a wireless sensing operation (shown by an “S” and by reference number  420 ) and symbols associated with an uplink transmission of the UE  120  (shown by a “U”). The example  400  may be useful for high-capability UEs, and may improve data throughput and reduce latency relative to other sensing modes. As shown in the example  410 , the UE  120  is associated with a slot-level sensing mode (corresponding to a slot-granularity TDD multiplexing capability), and the UE  120  may perform slot-level tuning between a frequency associated with a wireless sensing operation (shown by “Sensing slot” and by reference number  430 ) and a frequency associated with an uplink transmission of the UE  120  (shown by “Data slot”). The example  410  may be useful for moderate-capability UEs, and may provide higher throughput and less interruption of communications than a sensing mode associated with a longer granularity while consuming less resources than a slot-level sensing mode. 
       FIG.  5    is a diagram illustrating an example  500  of a sensing mode for a wireless sensing operation that is independent of a symbol or slot structure, and an example  510  of a sensing mode for a wireless sensing operation that is based at least in part on a discontinuous reception cycle of a UE, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. In the example  500 , the UE  120  transmits a preamble and a data payload  520 , then performs the wireless sensing operation during a time period  530 , then switches to transmitting a preamble and a data payload  540 . In the example  510 , the UE  120  may perform data communications during a discontinuous reception connected mode  550 / 560 . Thus, the sensing mode in example  500  may be configured independently of a symbol or slot structure of the UE  120 , leading to increased flexibility of wireless sensing and conserving communication resources of the UE  120 , which may be useful for low-capability UEs. As shown by reference number  570 , the UE  120  may perform a wireless sensing operation during a discontinuous reception idle mode or a discontinuous reception inactive mode. In some aspects, the UE  120  may perform periodic physical random access channel (PRACH) operation to synchronize with the BS  110 , as shown by reference number  580 . The sensing mode in example  510   may reduce interruption to data communications of the UE  120 , thereby increasing throughput. 
     Returning to  FIG.  3   , and as shown by reference number  325 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a waveform for a signal associated with the wireless sensing operation. For example, the capability information may indicate one or more waveforms that the UE  120  is capable of using to transmit a sensing reference signal.  FIGS.  6  and  7    show examples of waveforms for a sensing reference signal. 
       FIG.  6    is a diagram illustrating examples  600  and  610  of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) waveforms for a sensing reference signal, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. As shown by reference number  620 , in some aspects, the UE  120  may transmit a sensing reference signal using an OFDM waveform (indicated by the diagonal fill used for the sensing reference signals). In this case, the capability information may indicate that the UE  120  is capable of transmitting the sensing reference signal using the OFDM waveform. As shown by reference number  630 , in some aspects, the UE  120  may transmit a sensing reference signal using the waveform of another reference signal. For example, the UE  120  may use an OFDM waveform for a sounding reference signal  640  to transmit the sensing reference signal. As another example, the UE  120  may use the sounding reference signal  640  as the sensing reference signal. In these cases, the capability information may indicate that the UE  120  is capable of transmitting the sensing reference signal using the waveform of the other reference signal, and/or may indicate the other reference signal. 
       FIG.  7    is a diagram illustrating example waveforms  700  and  710  for a sensing reference signal, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Example  700  shows an example where a sensing reference signal  720  is transmitted using a frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) waveform, and example  710  shows an example where a sensing reference signal  730  is transmitted using a pulse waveform. If the UE  120  supports the FMCW waveform of example  700 , the UE  120  may transmit capability information indicating that the UE  120  supports the FMCW waveform. If the UE  120  supports the pulse waveform of example  710 , the UE  120  may transmit capability information indicating that the UE  120  supports the pulse waveform. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a combination of one or more of the above-described waveforms and/or one or more other waveforms not described above as supported by the UE  120 . Additionally, or alternatively, the capability information may indicate one or more parameters associated with one or more waveforms supported by the UE  120 , such as a pulse periodicity and/or the like. 
     Returning to  FIG.  3   , and as shown by reference number  330 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a sensing granularity associated with the wireless sensing operation. For example, the capability information may indicate a sensing granularity associated with the wireless sensing operation. The sensing granularity level may indicate a granularity in terms of distance, a granularity in terms of Doppler value (e.g., velocity), a granularity in terms of angle (e.g., elevation angle, azimuth angle, and/or the like), or a combination thereof. For example, the sensing granularity level may indicate a resolution value that identifies a minimum resolution in one or more of the above dimensions. As one example, the sensing granularity may indicate a distance granularity of 4 cm, a Doppler granularity of 2 cm/s, and an angular granularity of 5 degrees. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a sensing granularity by reference to a table. For example, an index of the capability information may indicate a sensing granularity value defined by the table. As one example, if a table includes values [0.1, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100] cm for a distance granularity, and if the UE  120  supports a distance granularity between 5 and 10 cm, then the UE  120  may report an index of 3 for the capability relating to the distance granularity. Such a table may include quantized values, real (e.g., unquantized) values, and/or the like. In some aspects, the UE  120  may report a quantized value for a granularity, which may reduce overhead associated with configuring the table, but which may increase signaling overhead relative to indicating an index associated with the table. As one example, if the UE  120  supports a distance granularity of 7.2 cm, the UE  120  may transmit a quantized value of 0111 (e.g., 7 in base 2) using 4 bits corresponding to a value of 7. 
     As shown by reference number  335 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a range associated with the wireless sensing operation. For example, the UE  120  may transmit information indicating a capability for a range of values for which the UE  120  can determine wireless sensing information. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a range based at least in part on a table, such as the table shown in  FIG.  8   .  FIG.  8    is a diagram illustrating an example of a table  800  indicating values for a wireless sensing capability relating to a range for a wireless sensing operation, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. As shown, each row of the table  800  may correspond to a respective dimension for a wireless sensing operation. A range may indicate a range of values (e.g., a range of distances, a range of velocities, an angular range, and/or the like) for which the UE  120  is capable of performing a wireless sensing operation. The UE  120  may transmit capability information including an index corresponding to a column of the table that includes a set of values corresponding to capabilities of the UE  120 . Thus, the UE  120  may conserve signaling resources that would otherwise be used to individually indicate the ranges shown in table  800 . In some aspects, ranges for the various dimensions of the wireless sensing operation may be associated with respective tables (e.g., one or more dimensions per table), and the UE  120  may provide indexes corresponding to the respective tables. This may provide more flexibility than a single-table approach, while the single-table approach may involve reduced overhead associated with the capability report. 
     Returning to  FIG.  3   , and as shown by reference number  340 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a sensing bandwidth associated with the wireless sensing operation. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a maximum bandwidth for a sensing reference signal associated with the wireless sensing operation. For example, the maximum bandwidth may be related to a hardware capability of the UE  120  (e.g., a radio frequency bandwidth configuration and/or the like). In some aspects, the capability information may indicate additional bandwidth for a wireless sensing operation, such as additional bandwidth associated with a carrier aggregation configuration of the UE  120  (e.g., so that a maximum bandwidth of a band of the UE  120  can be exceeded) and/or the like. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a minimum bandwidth for a wireless sensing operation. For example, the minimum bandwidth may be related to a distance resolution for the wireless sensing operation, and some wireless sensing operations may be configured based at least in part on the minimum bandwidth for range resolution. 
     As shown by reference number  345 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a power control parameter associated with the wireless sensing operation. For example, the capability information may indicate whether power control for the wireless sensing operation is handled by the UE  120  (e.g., based at least in part on a UE implementation). As another example, the capability information may indicate whether power control for the wireless sensing operation is assisted by the BS  110  (e.g., based at least in part on a power control loop by the BS  110 ). As yet another example, the capability information may indicate a maximum power that can be used by the UE  120  for the wireless sensing operation. 
     As shown by reference number  350 , in some aspects, the capability information may indicate a hardware constraint associated with the wireless sensing operation. For example, the capability information may indicate an antenna configuration for the wireless sensing operation. In this case, the capability information may indicate whether the UE  120  is associated with one or more dedicated antennas for the wireless sensing operation, or whether one or more antennas for the wireless sensing operation are shared for communication purposes during the wireless sensing operation. As another example, the capability information may indicate an antenna array size or an angular resolution based at least in part on the antenna array size. In some aspects, the capability information may indicate a radio frequency configuration for the wireless sensing operation. For example, the capability information may indicate whether the UE  120  uses a full-duplex mode or a half-duplex mode for the wireless sensing operation. As another example, the capability information may indicate whether the UE  120  supports the full-duplex mode for the wireless sensing operation. 
     As shown by reference number  355 , the BS  110  may transmit configuration information to the UE  120 . The configuration information may configure a wireless sensing operation in accordance with the capability information. As shown by reference number  360 , the UE  120  may perform the wireless sensing operation in accordance with the configuration information. In some aspects, the UE  120  may perform the wireless sensing operation without having received the configuration information (e.g., the UE  120  may have already been configured to perform the wireless sensing operation). In this way, the UE  120  provides capability information for a wireless sensing operation to the BS  110 , and the BS  110  configures a wireless sensing operation for the UE  120   based at least in part on the capability information. Thus, resource consumption is reduced in connection with poorly optimized or inefficient wireless sensing configuration. 
     As indicated above,  FIGS.  3 - 8    are provided as one or more examples. Other examples may differ from what is provided with regard to  FIGS.  3 - 8   . 
       FIG.  9    is a diagram illustrating an example process  900  performed, for example, by a UE, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure.

     As shown in  FIG.  9   , in some aspects, process  900  may include receiving a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation (block  910 ). For example, the UE (e.g., using antenna  252 , DEMOD  254 , MIMO detector  256 , receive processor  258 , controller/processor  280 , and/or the like) may receive a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation, as described above. The capability information may identify at least one of: whether the user equipment is capable of the wireless sensing operation, a sensing mode associated with TDD multiplexing for the wireless sensing operation, a waveform for a signal associated with the wireless sensing operation, a sensing granularity associated with the wireless sensing operation, a range associated with the wireless sensing operation, a sensing bandwidth associated with the wireless sensing operation, a power control parameter associated with the wireless sensing operation, or a hardware constraint associated with the wireless sensing operation, as described above. 
     As further shown in  FIG.  9   , in some aspects, process  900  may include transmitting, based at least in part on the request, the capability information (block  920 ). For example, the UE (e.g., using controller/processor  280 , transmit processor  264 , TX MIMO processor  266 , MOD  254 , antenna  252 , and/or the like) may transmit, based at least in part on the request, the capability information, as described above.

     Although  FIG.  9    shows example blocks of process  900 , in some aspects, process  900  may include additional blocks, fewer blocks, different blocks, or differently arranged blocks than those depicted in  FIG.  9   . Additionally, or alternatively, two or more of the blocks of process  900  may be performed in parallel.

     As shown in  FIG.  10   , in some aspects, process  1000  may include transmitting, to a user equipment, a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation (block  1010 ). For example, the base station (e.g., using controller/processor  240 , transmit processor  220 , TX MIMO processor  230 , MOD  232 , antenna  234 , and/or the like) may transmit, to a user equipment, a request for capability information associated with a wireless sensing operation, as described above.

     As further shown in  FIG.  10   , in some aspects, process  1000  may include receiving, based at least in part on the request, the capability information (block  1020 ).

     In a thirteenth aspect, alone or in combination with one or more of the first through twelfth aspects, the power control parameter indicates whether power control for the wireless sensing operation is assisted by the base station. 
     In a fourteenth aspect, alone or in combination with one or more of the first through thirteenth aspects, the power control parameter indicates a maximum power level associated with the wireless sensing operation. 
     In a fifteenth aspect, alone or in combination with one or more of the first through fourteenth aspects, the hardware constraint indicates an antenna configuration for the wireless sensing operation. 
     In a sixteenth aspect, alone or in combination with one or more of the first through fifteenth aspects, the hardware constraint indicates whether the wireless sensing operation is associated with a full-duplex radio frequency configuration or a half-duplex radio frequency configuration. 
     Although  FIG.  10    shows example blocks of process  1000 , in some aspects, process  1000  may include additional blocks, fewer blocks, different blocks, or differently arranged blocks than those depicted in  FIG.  10   . Additionally, or alternatively, two or more of the blocks of process  1000  may be performed in parallel. 
     The foregoing disclosure provides illustration and description, but is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the aspects to the precise form disclosed. Modifications and variations may be made in light of the above disclosure or may be acquired from practice of the aspects. 
     As used herein, the term “component” is intended to be broadly construed as hardware, firmware, and/or a combination of hardware and software. As used herein, a processor is implemented in hardware, firmware, and/or a combination of hardware and software. It will be apparent that systems and/or methods described herein may be implemented in different forms of hardware, firmware, and/or a combination of hardware and software. The actual specialized control hardware or software code used to implement these systems and/or methods is not limiting of the aspects. Thus, the operation and behavior of the systems and/or methods were described herein without reference to specific software code—it being understood that software and hardware can be designed to implement the systems and/or methods based, at least in part, on the description herein. 
     As used herein, satisfying a threshold may, depending on the context, refer to a value being greater than the threshold, greater than or equal to the threshold, less than the threshold, less than or equal to the threshold, equal to the threshold, not equal to the threshold, and/or the like. 
     Even though particular combinations of features are recited in the claims and/or disclosed in the specification, these combinations are not intended to limit the disclosure of various aspects. In fact, many of these features may be combined in ways not specifically recited in the claims and/or disclosed in the specification. Although each dependent claim listed below may directly depend on only one claim, the disclosure of various aspects includes each dependent claim in combination with every other claim in the claim set. A phrase referring to “at least one of” a list of items refers to any combination of those items, including single members. As an example, “at least one of: a, b, or c” is intended to cover a, b, c, a-b, a-c, b-c, and a-b-c, as well as any combination with multiples of the same element (e.g., a-a, a-a-a, a-a-b, a-a-c, a-b-b, a-c-c, b-b, b-b-b, b-b-c, c-c, and c-c-c or any other ordering of a, b, and c). 
     No element, act, or instruction used herein should be construed as critical or essential unless explicitly described as such. Also, as used herein, the articles “a” and “an” are intended to include one or more items and may be used interchangeably with “one or more.” Further, as used herein, the article “the” is intended to include one or more items referenced in connection with the article “the” and may be used interchangeably with “the one or more.” Furthermore, as used herein, the terms “set” and “group” are intended to include one or more items (e.g., related items, unrelated items, a combination of related and unrelated items, and/or the like), and may be used interchangeably with “one or more.” Where only one item is intended, the phrase “only one” or similar language is used. Also, as used herein, the terms “has,” “have,” “having,” and/or the like are intended to be open-ended terms. Further, the phrase “based on” is intended to mean “based, at least in part, on” unless explicitly stated otherwise. Also, as used herein, the term “or” is intended to be inclusive when used in a series and may be used interchangeably with “and/or,” unless explicitly stated otherwise (e.g., if used in combination with “either” or “only one of”).
