Deep Learning-based Design of Uplink Integrated Sensing and Communication

In this paper, we investigate the issue of uplink integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) in 6G wireless networks where the sensing echo signal and the communication signal are received simultaneously at the base station (BS). To effectively mitigate the mutual interference between sensing and communication caused by the sharing of spectrum and hardware resources, we provide a joint sensing transmit waveform and communication receive beamforming design with the objective of maximizing the weighted sum of normalized sensing rate and normalized communication rate. It is formulated as a computationally complicated non-convex optimization problem, which is quite difficult to be solved by conventional optimization methods. To this end, we first make a series of equivalent transformation on the optimization problem to reduce the design complexity, and then develop a deep learning (DL)-based scheme to enhance the overall performance of ISAC. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results confirm the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed DL-based scheme for ISAC in 6G wireless networks.

Energy-Efficient Design of Satellite-Terrestrial Computing in 6G Wireless Networks

In this paper, we investigate the issue of satellite-terrestrial computing in the sixth generation (6G) wireless networks, where multiple terrestrial base stations (BSs) and low earth orbit (LEO) satellites collaboratively provide edge computing services to ground user equipments (GUEs) and space user equipments (SUEs) over the world. In particular, we design a complete process of satellite-terrestrial computing in terms of communication and computing according to the characteristics of 6G wireless networks. In order to minimize the weighted total energy consumption while ensuring delay requirements of computing tasks, an energy-efficient satellite-terrestrial computing algorithm is put forward by jointly optimizing offloading selection, beamforming design and resource allocation. Finally, both theoretical analysis and simulation results confirm fast convergence and superior performance of the proposed algorithm for satellite-terrestrial computing in 6G wireless networks.

Integrating Sensing, Computing, and Communication in 6G Wireless Networks: Design and Optimization

The roll-out of various emerging wireless services has triggered the need for the sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks to provide functions of target sensing, intelligent computing and information communication over the same radio spectrum. In this paper, we provide a unified framework integrating sensing, computing, and communication to optimize limited system resource for 6G wireless networks. In particular, two typical joint beamforming design algorithms are derived based on multi-objective optimization problems (MOOP) with the goals of the weighted overall performance maximization and the total transmit power minimization, respectively. Extensive simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms. Moreover, the impacts of key system parameters are revealed to provide useful insights for the design of integrated sensing, computing, and communication (ISCC).
