5G Wireless sensing is a technology enabler to acquire information about characteristics of the environment and/or objects within the environment, that uses radio waves to determine the distance (range), angle, or instantaneous linear velocity of objects, etc. The 5G wireless sensing service relies on analyzing the transmissions, reflections, and scattering of wireless sensing signals.
This technical report investigates the potential of integrated sensing and communication technology for enabling new services and use cases for various industries. 5G wireless sensing service, as part of a cellular network provides new possibilities for enhanced usage of the telecommunication infrastructure in areas of object detection and tracking, environment monitoring and human motion monitoring. It provides input to various verticals - UAVs, smart home, V2X, factories.
The use cases examined in the report cover a wide range of applications, including:
  • Object and intruder detection for smart home, on a highway, for railways, for factory, for predefined secure areas around critical infrastructure
  • Collision avoidance and trajectory tracking of UAVs, vehicles, AGVs
  • Automotive maneuvering and navigation
  • Public safety search and rescue
  • Rainfall monitoring and flooding
  • Health and sports monitoring
Use cases focus is on 5G wireless sensing and some of the use cases could include non-3GPP type sensors (e.g. Radar, camera).
5G wireless sensing service also brings challenges related to confidentiality and privacy. There is a need to protect the sensing data from unauthorized access, interception and eavesdropping, but also to make sure there is compliance with regulation and user awareness.
In summary, it is considered beneficial for 3GPP specifications to address 5G system support of different use cases and service requirements for Integrated Sensing and Communication.
