Exact Degrees of Freedom of Spatially Sparse MIMO Channels Without Prior CSI

Yifeng Xiong, Weijiang Zhao, Fan Liu +2

We characterize the degree of freedom (DoF) of a point-to-point blockwise memoryless channel without prior channel state information (CSI), with a fixed number of propagation p…

How Much Sensing Information Is Needed to Control an Unstable Linear System?

Ming Li, Fan Liu, Yifeng Xiong +4

Modern control systems increasingly rely on sensing to infer the system state before control actions can be taken. Yet a given observation mechanism may fail to preserve sufficient…

CP-OFDM Achieves Lower Ranging CRB Than Frequency-Spread Waveforms in the Large-Sample Regime

Fan Liu, Yifeng Xiong, Ya-Feng Liu +3

The inherent randomness of communication symbols creates a fundamental tension in Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC). On the one hand, they enable data transmission while…

Input Distribution Design for Ranging-Oriented OFDM-ISAC Systems Under Frequency-Selective Fading

Weijiang Zhao, Yifeng Xiong

The implementation of the \ac{isac} feature in \ac{6g} networks is most likely to be based on the framework of \ac{ofdm}. Input distribution design, or constellation design, is a c…
