Integrated Sensing & Communication (ISAC): Unifying Radar and V2X Sidelink

ISACV2X pioneers the fusion of radar sensing and wireless communication into a unified RF architecture, eliminating hardware redundancy and unlocking high-resolution environmental mapping.

One Hardware Waveform for Communication and Millimeter Radar

Modern vehicles dedicate separate hardware to 77 GHz radar and 5.9 GHz V2X transceivers. ISAC merges these functions, using transmitted communication signals to simultaneously sense target range, velocity, and spatial reflection.

Core Engineering Areas

• Dual-Functional Radar-Comm Waveforms — Synthesizing waveforms that maximize communication data rates while preserving radar ambiguity function resolution.
• MIMO Radar & Beamforming — Directing narrow communication beams while scanning spatial lobes for obstacle reflection analysis.
• Interference & Ghost Mitigation — Mitigating full-duplex transmit-to-receive leakage and multi-path ghost reflections in dense urban streets.
