Some aspects relate to mobility procedures for user equipment (UEs) configured as sensing units (SUs) for an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) service. In some aspects, a mobility service network node may be configured to facilitate coordination of configuration changes due to a handover. For example, the mobility service network node may interact with a network function entity (referred to herein as a sensing management function (SnMF) network node) to facilitate a rapid re-configuration of a UE that moves from a source cell to a target cell and/or a radio access network (RAN) node associated with the target cell.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. Some aspects relate to changing a sensing service management function (SnMF) in association with a handover of a UE configured as a sensing unit (SU) for an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) service. In some aspects, as the SU is handed over to a target cell, a mobility service may request a new configuration associated with the target cell and may facilitate associating the SU with a target SnMF. In some aspects, a common sensing repository may facilitate identifying a target SnMF and associating the SU therewith. In some aspects, an SnMF may track changes in a sensing target and/or area to be sensed and may facilitate changing SnMFs and/or SUs to accommodate the changes.

Abstract: Monostatic radar with progressive length transmission may be used with half-duplex systems or with full-duplex systems to reduce self-interference. The system transmits a first signal for a first duration and receives a first reflection of the first signal from a first object during a second duration. The system transmits a second signal for a third duration longer than the first duration and receives a second reflection of the second signal from a second object during a fourth duration. The system calculates a position of the first object and the second object based on the first reflection and the second reflection. The first signal, first duration, and second duration are configured to detect reflections from objects within a first distance of the system. The second signal, third duration, and fourth duration are configured to detect reflections from objects between the first distance and a second distance from the system.
