The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $400,000 Project Grant under its Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to the Trustees of the Stevens Institute of Technology. The grant supports research on near-field integrated sensing and communication (NF-ISAC) systems, focusing on developing technologies that allow wireless signals to focus on specific distances in addition to directions. This improves both communication and sensing performance, particularly for high-frequency millimeter-wave and terahertz bands that enable high data rates and fine sensing resolution. The 3-year project, running from Sep 1, 2025 to Aug 31, 2028, aims to establish a unified framework for NF-ISAC using extremely large antenna arrays, addressing challenges like spherical wavefronts and nonlinear phase variations. The research seeks to enhance the security of wireless communications and sensing in integrated sensing and communication systems, promoting flexible wireless infrastructure and strengthening national competitiveness in next-generation wireless technologies.
