Abstract
As one of the promising technologies for 6G mobile system, the joint communication and sensing (JCS) technology can substantially empower communication network with the accurate environment perception ability, as well as enhanced communication performances enabled by the sensing ability. In this article, a communication-centric enabled JCS system has been designed, and the simulation platform has been developed by using different signaling and data payloads in each frame to evaluate the performances of communication and sensing functions. Hardware testbed has been implemented and the numerous field trail results prove the feasibility of the proposed JCS system, paving a fundamental way for the maturity of JCS enabled future 6G mobile system.
