A novel environment reconstruction method based on distributed NLOS signals

Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is a rapidly evolving field with extensive application prospects. Environmental reconstruction (ER) is an important content of ISAC. Existing ER techniques often require large sample sizes or specific signals, which significantly limit their application. User Equipments (UEs) widely distributed in the environment and their communication signals provide an adequate measurement basis. However, there are challenges in utilizing communication signals due to limited research, and difficulties in identifying and extracting Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) signals. This paper proposes a distributed ER algorithm based on Angle of Arrival (AOA) and Time of Flight (TOF) information of NLOS signals, enabling identification and utilization of various order NLOS signals under complex NLOS conditions. A series of simulation delays validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract

Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is a rapidly evolving field with extensive application prospects. Environmental reconstruction (ER) is an important content of ISAC. Existing ER techniques often require large sample sizes or specific signals, which significantly limit their application. User Equipments (UEs) widely distributed in the environment and their communication signals provide an adequate measurement basis. However, there are challenges in utilizing communication signals due to limited research, and difficulties in identifying and extracting Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) signals. This paper proposes a distributed ER algorithm based on Angle of Arrival (AOA) and Time of Flight (TOF) information of NLOS signals, enabling identification and utilization of various order NLOS signals under complex NLOS conditions. A series of simulation delays validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
