6G integrated sensing and communication - Sensing assisted environmental reconstruction and communication

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is believed to play a vital role for connected intelligence in 6G. Radio waves can be used to sense surrounding and obtain the environment information. Furthermore, the environmental knowledge provided by sensing improves the accuracy of channel estimation, resulting in better communication throughput. This paper provides a study of sensing assisted environment reconstruction and communication in ISAC scenario. We propose a multi-TRP sensing architecture based on scatter polygon assumption to improve environment sensing accuracy. Then a polygon trace scheme is introduced to reconstruct communication channel hinging on virtual environment. Cm-level sensing accuracy and ns-level communication channel reconstruction can be achieved by 140 GHz indoor measurement campaign validation.
