6G Integrated Sensing and Communication Technique and Its Potential Applications in Low-Altitude Economy

Abstract

Recently, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has identified integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) as a primary usage scenario for the sixth-generation (6G) cellular networks in IMT-2030 Framework. As a result, future cellular networks will provide not only communication services, but also sensing services such as localization and tracking. In this talk, we will first introduce how to leverage communication-oriented signals in cellular network to perform sensing. Then, we will show some potential applications of 6G ISAC technique in low-altitude economy.
