This document addresses the concept of Integrated Sensors and Communications (ISAC) and its relevance in the context of future 6G networks. It highlights the growing interest in ISAC from standardization bodies, industry members, stakeholder associations, academia, and strategic collaborative projects at the national and regional levels.
The main objective of the document is to define use cases for ISAC in 6G systems, describe deployment scenarios, identify suitable frequency bands, and characterize different sensor types and integration levels. Furthermore, it seeks to identify requirements and define key performance indicators (KPIs) for these use cases.
The document reviews existing use cases in 3GPP, IEEE 802.11, academic literature, and other ETSI specification groups. These use cases include object detection and tracking, environmental monitoring, gesture recognition, and automotive and healthcare applications.
WHOM DOES THIS IMPACT?
Therefore, the Direct Impact is on the Telecommunications Industry, Equipment Manufacturers, the Transportation Sector, the Healthcare Sector, and Society in General.
CONCLUSION:
ISAC has the potential to transform multiple sectors, offering significant benefits in terms of efficiency, safety, and quality of life. Its impact is broad and profound, directly affecting the telecommunications, transportation, and healthcare industries, as well as society in general.
