Measurement-based Characterization of ISAC Channels with Distributed Beamforming at Dual mmWave Bands and with Human Body Scattering and Blockage

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce our millimeter-wave (mmWave) radio channel measurement for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) scenarios with distributed links at dual bands in an indoor cavity; we also characterize the channel in delay and azimuth-angular domains for the scenarios with the presence of 1 person with varying locations and facing orientations. In our setting of distributed links with two transmitters and two receivers where each transceiver operates at two bands, we can measure two links whose each transmitter faces to one receiver and thus capable of line-of-sight (LOS) communication; these two links have crossing Fresnel zones. We have another two links capable of capturing the reflectivity from the target presenting in the test area (as well as the background). The numerical results in this paper focus on analyzing the channel with the presence of one person. It is evident that not only the human location, but also the human facing orientation, shall be taken into account when modeling the ISAC channel.
