Integrated Sensing and Communications with Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces
Summary:
As the standardization of 5G is being solidified new generation wireless networks are being on the epicenter of the research. The beyond 5G networks will be borne out of an emergence of novel and high demanding applications which will redefine the standard 5G services. Connected Intelligence, smart cities and industry, autonomous vehicles and robots and remote health care are realized to be basic services of the future wireless networks (Beyond 5G (B5G), 6G). These applications will create a multisensory environment demanding both high quality wireless connectivity and high accuracy sensing capability. Therefore it is crucial for the future wireless networks to connect both communication and sensing operations to achieve mutual performance gains.
The systems that will unify these operations are referred as Integrating Sensing and Communications (ISAC) systems. ISAC systems can be realized by coexisting separate radar and communication systems which share the available wireless resources and avoid interference among them or by dual functional systems which use wireless resources in an overlapped manner and share a single platform. Designing waveforms that satisfy both communication and sensing metrics is crucial for ISAC.
Another emerging technology that can assist the operations of communication and sensing is using Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) to alter the propagation of signals in a controlled manner and create smart radio environments. The ability of these meta-surfaces to create virtual wireless links and enhance the performance of the wireless systems makes them a very promising technology for communication and sensing individually as well as for ISAC systems
