ISAC

Technical Explanation

Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC), also termed Joint Communication and Sensing (JCAS), converges radar and wireless telecom into a single hardware platform, spectrum allocation, and waveform. By analyzing reflected radio waves from transmitted communication bursts, 6G base stations and UEs can track millimeter-scale target locations, compute velocities via Doppler shifts, map 3D environmental obstacles, monitor vital signs (breathing/heart rate), and detect drone intrusions without dedicated radar hardware.

Key Functions

• Simultaneous high-rate data transmission and high-resolution environmental radar sensing
• Centimeter-level 3D spatial mapping and velocity estimation using cellular carrier waves
• Target tracking, obstacle detection, and intrusion alerts for autonomous robots and drones
• RF-based non-invasive human vital sign monitoring and gesture recognition
• Sharing RF power, antenna arrays, and signal processing chains between radar and communication
