Communication-Assisted Sensing in 6G Networks
arXiv (Cornell University)(2023)
摘要
The exploration of coordination gain achieved through the synergy of sensing
and communication (S&C) functions plays a vital role in improving the
performance of integrated sensing and communication systems. This paper focuses
on the optimal waveform design for communication-assisted sensing (CAS) systems
within the context of 6G perceptive networks. In the CAS process, the base
station actively senses the targets through device-free wireless sensing and
simultaneously transmits the pertinent information to end-users. In our
research, we establish a CAS framework grounded in the principles of
rate-distortion theory and the source-channel separation theorem (SCT) in lossy
data transmission. This framework provides a comprehensive understanding of the
interplay between distortion, coding rate, and channel capacity. The purpose of
waveform design is to minimize the sensing distortion at the user end while
adhering to the SCT and power budget constraints. In the context of target
response matrix estimation, we propose two distinct waveform strategies: the
separated S&C and dual-functional waveform schemes. In the former strategy, we
develop a simple one-dimensional search algorithm, shedding light on a notable
power allocation tradeoff between the S&C waveform. In the latter scheme, we
conceive a heuristic mutual information optimization algorithm for the general
case, alongside a modified gradient projection algorithm tailored for the
scenarios with independent sensing sub-channels. Additionally, we identify the
presence of both subspace tradeoff and water-filling tradeoff. Finally, we
validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms through numerical
simulations.
