Signal Processing for Integrated Sensing and Communications
In this talk, the speaker will focus on the recent developments in integrated sensing and communications (ISAC). He will broadly define coexistence, covering 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 colocated 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 talk aims to draw the attention of the radar, communications, and signal-processing communities toward an emerging area that can benefit from the cross-fertilization of ideas in distributed systems.

Biography:
Dr. Kumar Vijay Mishra,
Chair of the Synthetic Apertures Technical Working Group,
Senior Member, IEEE.
Dr. Kumar Vijay Mishra (S’08-M’15-SM’18) holds a Ph.D. in electrical engineering and an M.S. in mathematics from The University of Iowa (2015), an M.S. in electrical engineering from Colorado State University (2012), and a B.Tech. summa cum laude in electronics and communication engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Hamirpur, India (2003). He is a Senior Fellow at the U.S. DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory, Research Scientist at the University of Maryland under the ARL-ArtIAMAS program, Technical Adviser to automotive radar startup Hertzwell and imaging radar startup Aura Intelligent Systems, and honorary Research Fellow at the University of Luxembourg. Previously, he held research appointments at LRDE, DRDO, IIHR, Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs, Qualcomm, and Technion. Dr. Mishra is the Distinguished Lecturer of multiple IEEE societies and the recipient of numerous awards, including the IEEE Signal Processing Society Pierre-Simon Laplace Early Career Technical Achievement Award (2024), IEEE AESS M. Barry Carlton Award Special Mention (2023), and IET Premium Best Paper Prize (2021), among others. He has been involved in technical committees, including IEEE SPS, IEEE AESS Radar Systems Panel, and IEEE SPS Synthetic Apertures Technical Working Group, and has held editorial roles for IEEE journals. He has authored/co-authored several books on signal processing and radar, including Signal Processing for Joint Radar-Communications and Advances in Weather Radar. His research focuses on radar systems, signal processing, remote sensing, and electromagnetics.
