Abstract

Sixth-generation (6G) networks may allow to evolve from everything connected to everything sensed. Integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) requires the higher frequencies, wider bands, and more advanced antenna technology offered by 6G technology. We analyze advanced beamforming techniques to overcome the poor propagation characteristics of millimeter and terahertz waves as well as new waveforms designed to include sensing. This paper is intended to provide communication researchers with short summaries of ISAC, use cases, and standardization initiatives as guidelines for exploring new research and development directions.
