Abstract: In this talk, we focus on the recent developments toward integrated sensing and communications (ISAC). We consider a broad definition of coexistence, which covers ISAC, collaborative communications, and sensing with interference. Toward fully realizing the coexistence of the two systems, optimization of resources for both new/futuristic sensing and wireless communications modalities is crucial. These synergistic approaches that exploit the interplay between state sensing and communications are both driving factors and opportunities for many current signal processing and information-theoretic techniques. In addition, a large body of prior works considers collocated ISAC systems while distributed systems remain relatively unexamined. Building on the existing approaches, the tutorial focuses on highlighting emerging scenarios in collaborative and distributed ISAC, particularly at mm-Wave and THz frequencies, highly dynamic vehicular/automotive environments that would benefit from information exchange between the two systems. It presents the architectures and possible methodologies for mutually beneficial distributed co-existence and co-design, including sensor fusion and heterogeneously distributed radar and communications. The tutorial also considers recent developments such as the deployment of intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) in ISAC, 5G systems, passive internet-of-things, and ISAC secrecy rate optimization. This tutorial aims to draw the attention of the radar, communications, and signal processing communities toward an emerging area, which can benefit from the cross-fertilization of ideas in distributed systems.

Title: New Frontiers in Integrated Sensing and Communications
Abstract This talk focuses on recent developments in integrated sensing and communications (ISAC). It covers a broad definition of coexistence, including ISAC, collaborative communications, and sensing with interference. Emphasis is placed on optimizing resources for new sensing and wireless communications modalities. The talk highlights emerging scenarios in collaborative and distributed ISAC, especially in mm-Wave and THz frequencies, and dynamic vehicular environments. It presents architectures and methodologies for mutually beneficial coexistence and co-design, including sensor fusion and distributed radar and communications. The tutorial also considers intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) in ISAC, 5G systems, passive internet-of-things, and ISAC secrecy rate optimization. This tutorial aims to engage the radar, communications, and signal processing communities with this evolving field.
