Leveraging A Variety of Anchors in Cellular Network for Ubiquitous Sensing

no code implementations26 Mar 2024 Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Shuguang Cui

A key challenge of 6G-oriented ISAC lies in how to perform ubiquitous sensing based on the communication signals and devices.

User-Assisted Networked Sensing in OFDM Cellular Network with Erroneous Anchor Position Information

no code implementations20 Dec 2023 Xianzhen Guo, Qin Shi, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang

However, in practice, the number of BSs possessing LOS paths to a target can be small, leading to marginal networked sensing gain.

MUSIC Algorithm for IRS-Assisted AOA Estimation

no code implementations6 Sep 2023 QiPeng Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang

In this paper, we consider a more challenging AOA estimation setup in the intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system, where LOS paths do not exist between the BS and the users, while the users' signals can be transmitted to the BS merely via their LOS paths to the IRS as well as the LOS path from the IRS to the BS.

A Quantize-then-Estimate Protocol for CSI Acquisition in IRS-Aided Downlink Communication

no code implementations4 Aug 2023 Rui Wang, Zhaorui Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Shi Jin

Different from the uplink counterpart where the BS possesses the pilot signals containing the CSI of all the users, in downlink communication, the distributed users merely receive the pilot signals containing their own CSI and cannot leverage the correlation in different users' channels revealed in [1].

no code implementations4 May 2023 QiPeng Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Boya Di, Francis C. M. Lau

In this paper, we show that the distance between a target and its associated IRS can be indirectly estimated based on the length of the BS-target-BS path and the BS-target-IRS-BS path.

Trilateration-Based Device-Free Sensing: Two Base Stations and One Passive IRS Are Sufficient

no code implementations25 May 2022 QiPeng Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Francis C. M. Lau

The classic trilateration technique can localize each target based on its distances to three anchors with known coordinates.

Exploiting Temporal Side Information in Massive IoT Connectivity

1 code implementation5 Jan 2022 QiPeng Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Francis C. M. Lau

In particular, we propose to leverage the temporal correlation in device activity, e. g., a device active in the previous coherence block is more likely to be still active in the current coherence block, to improve the detection and estimation performance.

Device-Free Sensing in OFDM Cellular Network

no code implementations20 Aug 2021 Qin Shi, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Shuguang Cui

A novel two-phase sensing framework is proposed to localize the passive targets that cannot transmit/receive reference signals to/from the base stations (BSs), where the ranges of the targets are estimated based on their reflected OFDM signals to the BSs in Phase I, and the location of each target is estimated based on its ranges to different BSs in Phase II.

A New Channel Estimation Strategy in Intelligent Reflecting Surface Assisted Networks

no code implementations22 Jun 2021 Rui Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Changyuan Yu

Specifically, in Phase I, the correlation coefficients between the channels of a typical BS antenna and those of the other antennas are estimated; while in Phase II, the cascaded channel of the typical antenna is estimated.

1 code implementation27 Jan 2021 QiPeng Wang, Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang, Francis C. M. Lau

In particular, we propose to leverage the temporal correlation in user activity, i. e., a device active at the previous time slot is more likely to be still active at the current moment, to improve the detection performance.

A Two-Stage Radar Sensing Approach based on MIMO-OFDM Technology

no code implementations12 Nov 2020 Liang Liu, Shuowen Zhang

Since the technologies of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) are widely used in the legacy cellular systems, this paper proposes a two-stage signal processing approach for radar sensing in an MIMO-OFDM system, where the scattered channels caused by various targets are estimated in the first stage, and the location information of the targets is then extracted from their scattered channels in the second stage.
