Seminar: An LLM-Based Optimization for Integrated Sensing and Communications in UAV Networks
Title: An LLM-Based Optimization for Integrated Sensing and Communications in UAV Networks
Abstract: Beyond the fifth-generation (B5G) mobile networks have envisioned future mobile networks to offer not only seamless communication services but also advanced sensing capabilities. This has driven interest in joint communication and sensing (C&S) within integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems. Thanks to the high-quality line-of-sight (LoS) air-to-ground (A2G) communication links and flexible mobility of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), UAVs are seen as a key enabler for extending coverage and enhancing C&S performance in ISAC systems. This work focuses on a UAV network with ISAC, where multiple UAVs simultaneously sense ground user locations with radars and provide communication services. To find the trade-off between C&S, we formulate a multi-objective optimization problem (MOP) aimed at maximizing both network utility and the localization accuracy (Cramér-Rao bounds, CRB) of ground users through optimizing UAV deployment and power control. To solve this highly non-convex problem, inspired by the huge potential of large language models (LLM) for prediction and inference, we introduce an LLM-enabled decomposition-based multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (LEDMA). This approach breaks the MOP into smaller sub-problems and incorporates LLMs as search operators using designed prompt engineering within a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) framework. Numerical results demonstrate that LEDMA effectively identifies the trade-off between C&S and outperforms baseline MOEAs in terms of solution quality and convergence.
