The method includes: sending, by a base station, an electromagnetic perception signal to a to-be-perceived region; receiving electromagnetic feedback signals transmitted, scattered, and reflected from an ambient environment of the to-be-perceived region and an object in the to-be-perceived region; and calculating environment information of the to-be-perceived region based on the electromagnetic feedback signals and the electromagnetic perception signal. In this way, environment information of a coverage area of the base station can be determined. In addition, environment information update frequency may be dynamically adjusted by setting a detection period for sending an electromagnetic perception signal, so as to meet environment information detection requirements of different applications, for example, real-time detection on environment information and high resolution detection on environment information.

  • Patent number: 10340300
    Abstract: Among other things, one or more image sensors and techniques for forming such image sensors are provided. An image sensor comprises a photodiode array configured to detect light. A filler grid is formed over the photodiode array, such as over a dielectric grid. The filler grid comprises one or more filler structures, such as a first filler structure that provides a light propagation path to a first photodiode that is primarily through the first filler structure. In this way, signal strength decay of light along the light propagation path before detection by the first photodiode is mitigated. The image sensor comprises a reflective layer that channels light towards corresponding photodiodes. For example, a first reflective layer portion guides light towards the first photodiode and away from a second photodiode. In this way, crosstalk, otherwise resulting from detection of light by incorrect photodiodes, is mitigated.
