Seamlessly merging radar ranging and imaging, wireless communications, and spectrum sensing for 6G empowered by microwave photonics.

ABSTRACT: To facilitate intelligent interconnection among people, machines, and things, the next generation of communication technology must incorporate various sensing functions besides high-speed wireless communications. Integration of radar, wireless communications, and spectrum sensing is being investigated for 6G with increased spectral efficiency, enhanced system integration, and reduced cost. Microwave photonics, a technique that combines microwave engineering and photonic technology is considered an effective solution for implementing the integration and breaking the bottleneck problems of electronic solutions. Here, we show a photonics-assisted joint radar, wireless communications, and spectrum sensing system that enables precise perception of the surrounding physical and electromagnetic en
