The ongoing development of individual radio and radar sensor systems, in terms of both hardware and software, as well as sensor networks, has made significant progress in recent decades. Nevertheless, challenges remain in physical-layer design, higher layers, and signal processing. This talk will provide insights into our latest activities on distributed sensing technologies, especially integrated sensing and communications solutions. I will cover physical-layer design, potential waveform candidates, and traditional and ML-based signal-processing steps, and showcase their potential in automotive, industrial, and energy applications.
