Abstract

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is developing rapidly due to the advantages of bandwidth saving, hardware cost reduction and energy saving. This letter proposes a unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) enabled ISAC (UAV-ISAC) system, where the UAV will sense ground users and forward sensed information to base station (BS). Radar mutual information (MI) is introduced to measure the UAV sensing performance. On the basis of sensing fairness for each user, a multi-objective resource optimization problem of maximizing both energy efficiency (EE) and minimum radar MI is studied by jointly optimizing user scheduling, transmit power and UAV trajectory. To solve the non-convex optimization problem, we decompose it into three sub-problems: user scheduling optimization, transmit power optimization, and UAV trajectory optimization. Each subproblem can be solved by successive convex approximation (SCA), fractional programming and relaxation technique. By iteratively optimizing the three sub-problems, we can obtain the suboptimal solution to original optimization problem. Simulation results show that the proposed optimization scheme can maximize the EE of UAV while ensuring sensing fairness for all users.
