abstract = {Pareto optimal solutions are conceived for radar beamforming error (RBE) and sum rate maximization in short-packet (SP) millimeter-wave (mmWave) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC). Our ultimate goal is to realize ultra-reliable low-latency communication (uRLLC) and real-time sensing capabilities for 6G applications. The ISAC base station (BS) transmits short packets in the downlink (DL) to serve multiple communication users (CUs) and detect multiple radar targets (RTs). We investigate the performance trade-off between the sensing and communication capabilities by optimizing both the radio frequency (RF) and the baseband (BB) transmit precoder (TPC), together with the block lengths. The optimization problem considers the minimum rate requirements of the CUs, the maximum tolerable radar beamforming error (RBE) for the RTs, the unit modulus (UM) elements of the RF TPC, and the finite transmit power as the constraints for SP transmission. The resultant problem is highly non-convex due to the intractable rate expression of the SP regime coupled with the non-convex rate and UM constraints. To solve this problem, we propose an innovative two-layer bisection search (TLBS) algorithm, wherein the RF and BB TPCs are optimized in the inner layer, followed by the block length in the outer layer. Furthermore, a pair of novel methods, namely a bisection search-based majorizer and minimizer (BMM) as well as exact penalty-based manifold optimization (EPMO) are harnessed for optimizing the RF TPC in the inner layer. Subsequently, the BB TPC and the block length are derived via second-order cone programming (SOCP) and mixed integer programming methods, respectively. Finally, our exhaustive simulation results reveal the effect of system parameters for various settings on the RBE-rate region of the SP mmWave ISAC system and demonstrate a significantly enhanced performance compared to the benchmarks.},

abstract = {A hybrid transmit precoder (TPC) and receive combiner (RC) pair is conceived for millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems. The proposed design considers a practical mean squared error (MSE) constraint between the desired and the achieved beampatterns constructed for identifying radar targets (RTs). To achieve optimal performance, we formulate an optimization problem relying on sum spectral efficiency (SE) maximization of the communication users (CUs), while satisfying certain radar beampattern similarity (RBPS), total transmit power, and constant modulus constraints, where the latter are attributed to the hybrid mmWave MIMO architecture. Since the aforementioned problem is non-convex and intractable, a sequential approach is proposed wherein the TPCs are designed first, followed by the RCs. To deal with the non-convex MSE and constant modulus constraints in the TPC design problem, we propose a majorization and minimization (MM) based Riemannian conjugate gradient (RCG) method, which restricts the tolerable MSE of the beampattern to within a predefined limit. Moreover, the least squares and the zero-forcing methods are adopted for maximizing the sum-SE and for mitigating the multiuser interference (MUI), respectively. Furthermore, to design the RC at each CU, we propose a linear MM-based blind combiner (LMBC) scheme that does not rely on the knowledge of the TPC at the CUs and has a low complexity. To achieve user fairness, we further extend the proposed sequential approach for maximizing the geometric mean (GM) of the CU's rate. Simulation results are presented, which show the superior performance of the proposed hybrid TPC and RC in comparison to the state-of-the-art designs in the mmWave MIMO ISAC systems under consideration.},

abstract = {The joint optimization of the hybrid transmit precoders (HTPCs) and reflective elements of a millimeter wave (mmWave) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system is considered. The system also incorporates a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) relying on a non-diagonal RIS (NDRIS) phase shift matrix. Specifically, we consider a hybrid architecture at the ISAC base station (BS) that serves multiple downlink communication users (CUs) via the reflected links from the RIS, while concurrently detecting multiple radar targets (RTs). We formulate an optimization problem that aims for maximizing the geometric mean (GM) rate of the CUs, subject to the sensing requirement for each RT. Additional specifications related to the limited transmit power and unit modulus (UM) constraints for both the HTPCs and the reflective elements of the NDRIS phase shift matrix make the problem challenging. To solve this problem, we first transform the intractable GM rate expression to a tractable weighted sum rate objective and next split the transformed problem into sub-problems. Consequently, we propose an iterative alternating optimization approach that leverages the majorization-minimization (MM) framework and block coordinate descent (BCD) method to solve each sub-problem. Furthermore, to tackle the UM constraints in the sub-problem of the HTPC design, we propose a penalty-based Riemannian manifold optimization (PRMO) algorithm, which optimizes the HTPCs on the Riemannian manifold. Similarly, the phases of the reflective elements of the NDRIS are optimized by employing the Riemannian manifold, and the locations of the non-zero entries of the NDRIS phase shift matrix are obtained by the maximal ratio combining (MRC) criterion. Finally, we present our simulation results, which show that deploying an NDRIS achieves additional gains for the CUs over a conventional RIS, further enhancing both the communication efficiency and sensing reliability. Furthermore, we compare the results to the pertinent benchmarks, which validate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms.},

abstract = {Millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems capable of integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) constitute a key technology for connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs). In this context, we propose a multi-beam object-localization (MBOL) model for enhancing the sensing beampattern (SBP) gain of adjacent objects in CAV scenarios. Given the ultra-narrow beams of mmWave MIMO systems, a single pencil beam is unsuitable for closely located objects, which tend to require multiple beams. Hence, we formulate the SBP gain maximization problem, considering also the constraints on the signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) of the communication users (CUs), on the transmit power, and the constant modulus of the phase-shifters in the mmWave hybrid transceiver. To solve this non-convex problem, we propose a penalty-based triple alternating optimization algorithm to design the hybrid beamformer. Finally, simulation results are provided for demonstrating the efficacy of the proposed model.},
