Abstract

Driving a gradual integration of the physical and digital worlds is perceived to become a reality in the 6G era, from vehicles to drones, from surveillance facilities in cities to agricultural tools in the countryside. Jointly motivated by recent advances in communication and signal processing, radio sensing functionality can be integrated into a 6G radio access network (RAN) in a low-cost and fast manner. That is, future networks have the ability to “see” the physical world through imaging and measuring the surrounding environment, which enables advanced location-aware services, ranging from the physical to application layers. In essence, a radio emission could simultaneously convey communication data from the transmitter to the receiver and deliver environmental information from the scattered echoes. Therefore, sensing and communication (S&C) functionalities are possible to be co-designed to utilize resources efficiently and to assist each other for mutual benefits. This type of research is typically referred to as integrated sensing and communication (ISAC).
