This emerging paradi gm presents fundamental challenges and exciting opportunities for signal p rocessing and integrated sensing and communications (ISAC). Future ISAC is not merely about putting radar and communications on the same platform. I t is about turning every available signal\, platform\, and interaction int o an opportunity for sensing and cognition. In this context\, this talk ex plores representative advances across three complementary ISAC paradigms: coexistence\, co-design\, and opportunistic sensing. In the coexistence se tting\, we present a dual-blind deconvolution framework for overlaid radar -communications systems\, where neither the transmitted signals nor the pr opagation channels are known. In co-design ISAC\, we examine exploiting or bital angular momentum to exploit additional spatial degrees of freedom to jointly support sensing and communications. We then turn to opportunistic sensing\, where communication infrastructure from satellites and 5G base stations is repurposed for sensing precipitation without dedicated radar h ardware. We end with a more cognitive perspective through inverse stochast ic filtering\, where the objective moves beyond estimating physical parame ters toward inferring latent processes and underlying causes from their ob servable consequences. Together\, these examples point toward a broader vi sion of ISAC for the modern battlefield and beyond.\n\nSpeaker(s): Kumar M ishra\, \n\nAgenda: \n15:00 - Kumar Vijay Mishra\, "ISAC in the Modern Bat tlefield: Distributed\, Opportunistic\, and Cognitive Sensing"\n\nRoom: Au ditório\, Bldg: Biblioteca\, NOVA FCT\, Universidade Nova de Lisboa Capar ica\, Caparica\, Lisboa\, Portugal\, 2829-516 LOCATION:Room: Auditório\, Bldg: Biblioteca\, NOVA FCT\, Universidade Nova de Lisboa Caparica\, Caparica\, Lisboa\, Portugal\, 2829-516 ORGANIZER:jf.guerreiro@fct.unl.pt SEQUENCE:118 SUMMARY:ISAC in the Modern Battlefield: Distributed\, Opportunistic\, and C ognitive Sensing (NOVA FCT) URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/589744 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>You are invited to participate in this joi nt event of IEEE VTS PT Chapter and IEEE ComSoc PT Chapter\, held at NOVA FCT\, Universidade Nova de Lisboa\, Caparica\, Portugal.&nbsp\;</p>\n<hr>\ n<p style="text-align: justify\;">The modern battlefield is becoming incre asingly connected\, contested\,&nbsp\;and data-driven\, with sensing and c ommunications performed by&nbsp\;heterogeneous platforms operating under s evere constraints on&nbsp\;spectrum\, hardware\, and available information .
