Hybrid TRP-UE Sensing for Enhanced Target Localization

Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) refers to the capability for the network to provide communications services whilst also being able to sense the environment in a scalable manner. One of the key functions of ISAC is the accurate localization of passive and mobile sensing targets. This paper introduces a novel hybrid TRP-UE sensing mechanism that improves network-based sensing performance. Evaluation results are provided using 3GPP-compliant ISAC channel models. The results demonstrate the significant benefit in complimenting TRP-based sensing with UE-assisted sensing in challenging propagation environments such as indoor factory.

Beamwidth Optimization and Resource Partitioning Scheme for Localization Assisted mm-wave Communications

We study a mm-wave wireless network deployed along the roads of an urban area, to support localization and communication services simultaneously for outdoor mobile users. In this network, we propose a mm-wave initial beam-selection scheme based on localization-bounds, which greatly reduces the initial access delay as compared to traditional initial access schemes for standalone mm-wave base station (BS). Then, we introduce a downlink transmission protocol, in which the radio frames are partitioned into three phases, namely, initial access, data, and localization, respectively. We establish a trade-off between the localization and communication performance of mm-wave systems, and show how enhanced localization can actually improve the data-communication performance. Our results suggest that dense BS deployments enable to allocate more resources to the data phase while still maintaining appreciable localization performance. Furthermore, for the case of sparse deployments and large beam dictionary size (i.e., with thinner beams), more resources must be allotted to the localization phase for optimizing the rate coverage. Based on our results, we provide several system design insights and dimensioning rules for the network operators that will deploy the first generation of mm-wave BSs.

Positioning Data-Rate Trade-off in mm-Wave Small Cells and Service Differentiation for 5G Networks

We analyze a millimeter wave network, deployed along the streets of a city, in terms of positioning and downlink data-rate performance, respectively. First, we present a transmission scheme where the base stations provide jointly positioning and data-communication functionalities. Accordingly, we study the trade-off between the localization and the data rate performance based on theoretical bounds. Then, we obtain an upper bound on the probability of beam misalignment based on the derived localization error bound. Finally, we prescribe the network operator a scheme to select the beamwidth and the power splitting factor between the localization and communication functions to address different quality of service requirements, while limiting cellular outage.
