Optical Integrated Sensing and Communication: Architectures, Potentials, and Challenges
The author explores the concept of Optical ISAC (O-ISAC) as a powerful complement to RF-ISAC, focusing on increasing communication rates, enhancing sensing precision, and reducing interference through waveform design and resource allocation.
Cooperative ISAC Networks: Analyzing Antenna Allocation Strategies for Optimal Performance in Sensing and Communication
This paper investigates the trade-offs in antenna allocation strategies for cooperative ISAC networks, demonstrating that a balanced approach optimizing both sensing accuracy and communication data rate outperforms fully centralized or distributed configurations.
Electromagnetic Property Sensing and Material Identification Using OFDM Pilot Signals in a Multi-Base Station ISAC System
This paper proposes a novel method for sensing the electromagnetic properties of a target and identifying its material composition using OFDM pilot signals in a multi-base station ISAC system.
On the Fundamental Tradeoff of Joint Communication and Quickest Change Detection with State-Independent Data Channels (A research paper exploring the tradeoffs inherent in designing systems for simultaneous data transmission and anomaly detection)
There exists a fundamental tradeoff between achieving high data transmission rates and quickly detecting changes or anomalies in communication channels, and this paper explores how to optimize this tradeoff in an information-theoretic framework.
I-SCOUT: Using 5G PRS Signals for Integrated Sensing and Communication to Detect Moving Targets
I-SCOUT is a novel framework that repurposes 5G Positioning Reference Signals (PRS) for environment sensing, enabling simultaneous communication and target detection in NextG networks by leveraging the cross ambiguity function (CAF) to estimate range and velocity while balancing sensing accuracy and communication efficiency.
