Description
Summary:Wireless communication with the enormous demands of sensing ability have given rise to the integrated passive sensing and communication (IPSAC) technology. The main challenge of IPSAC is how to achieve high sensing and communication performance by integrating the passive sensing and communication demodulation. In this paper, we propose an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) signal processing optimization scheme by jointly processing the pilot and data signals. To solve the optimization problem, we propose an ISAC signal processing algorithm based on iterative optimization, which alternates the passive sensing and channel reconstruction to realize target sensing. However, the hyper-parameter configuration of the iterative optimization algorithm influences the performance of target detection and communication demodulation. Recognizing this fact, we propose a model-driven ISAC network (ISAC-NET) that adopts the block-by-block signal processing method to improve the communication and sensing performance. The proposed ISAC-NET obtains suitable hyper-parameters by deep learning to guarantee the performance and convergence of communication and sensing signal processing. From the simulation results, ISAC-NET obtains better communication performance than the traditional signal demodulation algorithm, which is close to OAMP-Net2. Compared to the 2D-DFT algorithm, ISAC-NET demonstrates significantly enhanced sensing performance. In summary, ISAC-NET is a promising tool for the IPSAC systems.
