Abstract

This paper studies the use of multiple planar fluid antennas at a full-duplex base station (BS) for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC). In this model, the BS communicates with a downlink user, an uplink user, and performs target sensing simultaneously. Our objective is to maximize the communication sum-rate of the up and downlink users while meeting the sensing and power constraints. Given that the problem is non-convex, we first reformulate the problem using the fractional programming (FP) framework. After that, we iteratively optimize the beamforming vectors of the BS, the uplink transmit power from the user, and the antenna positions of both transmit and receive fluid antenna systems (FASs) at the BS. In particular, the transmit and receive beamforming vectors are optimized by utilizing the majorization-minimization (MM) framework, and a closed-form solution for the uplink transmit power is derived. To optimize the BS antenna positions, we transform the problems into convex quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQP) by using Taylor series expansion. The subproblems can then be solved based on the successive convex approximation (SCA). Simulation results show that FAS can greatly improve the communication rate compared to the traditional fixed-position antenna (FPA) system.
