Abstract
This paper discusses a distributed Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) network based on 5G NR. Each BS in the cellular network adopts half-duplex operation, and every three adjacent BSs construct a cooperative sensing system. Based on the 5G NR standard frame configuration, we develop a new procedure and protocol to support the proposed ISAC network. Under this network, we analyze the performance of both sensing and communication in practical scenarios. Simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed ISAC network.
