1. A method for Wi-Fi sensing, the method comprising:
transmitting, via at least one transmitting antenna of a sensing initiator device, a sensing measurement setup request frame to a sensing responder to request a sensing measurement setup to be used in corresponding sensing measurement instances of a WLAN sensing session for performing sensing measurements on one or more sensing transmissions to monitor motion within a sensing space, the sensing measurement setup request frame including a requested sensing measurement parameters element;
receiving, via at least one receiving antenna of the sensing initiator device, a sensing measurement setup response frame, wherein the sensing measurement setup response frame includes one or more of a transmission capability indication associated with the sensing responder device indicating whether the sensing responder can participate in the corresponding sensing measurement instances and a delivered sensing measurement parameters element for use in the corresponding sensing measurement instances; and
transmitting, via the at least one transmitting antenna of the sensing initiator device, or receiving, via the at least one receiving antenna of the sensing initiator device, a first frame of a first corresponding sensing measurement instance configured in accordance with the sensing measurement setup response frame.
