Abstract

Existing integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) platforms fail to fully utilize the shared spectrum and aperture resources for sensing, resulting in poor sensing performance. Specifically, weak target sensing on the ISAC platform, such as micro-deformation monitoring (mDM), suffers from inaccurate measurements due to poor sensing quality. In this paper, we propose an AI-assisted approach to alleviate the effect of poor sensing quality in the ISAC system by effectively removing the clutter. We begin by modeling the environment clutter model as a combination of the deterministic and stochastic signals to represent urban coverage scenarios around the base station (BS). A clutter suppression optimization problem is formulated to extract the micro-deformation displacement (mDD) from the original ISAC signals. We then propose a learnable template-matching (LTM) approach to mitigate the influences of clutters, thereby enhancing sensing quality. In particular, the electromagnetic (EM) signal feature of the mDD is embedded into the network to strengthen the mDM signal, and clutter filters are incorporated to suppress environmental clutter. Numerical results illustrate the superiority of our proposed approach concerning convergence speed and accuracy in mDD prediction. By deploying our approach to the BS measurement, the simulation-only trained LTM exhibits impressive performance in environment clutter separation and mDD estimation.
