Sensing

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) has emerged as a key development direction in the sixth-generation (6G) era, which provides essential support for the collaborative sensing and communication of future intelligent networks. However, as wireless environments become increasingly dynamic and complex, ISAC systems require more intelligent processing and more autonomous operation to maintain efficiency and adaptability. Meanwhile, agentic artificial intelligence (AI) offers a feasible solution to address these challenges by enabling continuous perception-reasoning-action loops in dynamic environments to support intelligent, autonomous, and efficient operation for ISAC systems. As such, we delve into the application value and prospects of agentic AI in ISAC systems in this work. Firstly, we provide a comprehensive review of agentic AI and ISAC systems to demonstrate their key characteristics. Secondly, we show several common optimization approaches for ISAC systems and highlight the significant advantages of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI)-based agentic AI. Thirdly, we propose a novel agentic ISAC framework and prensent a case study to verify its superiority in optimizing ISAC performance. Finally, we clarify future research directions for agentic AI-based ISAC systems.

Existing Wi-Fi sensing systems rely on injecting high-rate probing packets to extract channel state information (CSI), leading to communication degradation and limited deployment flexibility. Although Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is a promising direction, existing solutions still rely on auxiliary packet injection because they exploit only uniform CSI from a single frame type, discarding approximately 70% of naturally available packets. We present FuseFi, a novel Wi-Fi-based ISAC framework that directly exploits irregularly sampled CSI from diverse communication packets across multiple frequency bands, eliminating intrusive packet injection and introducing no sensing-specific communication overhead. FuseFi integrates a CSI sanitization pipeline to harmonize heterogeneous packets and remove burst-induced redundancy, together with a time-aware attention model that learns directly from non-uniform CSI sequences without resampling. We further introduce CommCSI-HAR, a new dataset with irregularly sampled CSI from real-world dual-band communication traffic. Extensive evaluations on this dataset and, separately, on four public sensing tasks across three benchmark datasets show that FuseFi achieves state-of-the-art accuracy with a compact model size, while fully preserving communication throughput.

The vulnerability of cyclists, exacerbated by the rising popularity of faster e-bikes, motivates adapting automotive perception technologies for bicycle safety. We use our multi-sensor SenseBike research platform to study 3D LiDAR semantic segmentation for bicycles. We introduce the novel BikeScenes-lidarseg Dataset, comprising 3021 consecutive LiDAR scans around the university campus of the TU Delft, semantically annotated for 29 dynamic and static classes. As an initial baseline study, we evaluate how a SemanticKITTI pre-trained FRNet model transfers to this bicycle-mounted solid-state LiDAR setting. Fine-tuning on BikeScenes increases mean Intersection-over-Union (mIoU) from 13.8% to 63.6% on our held-out subsequences. These results show the practical value of in-domain data for this platform, while also highlighting the need for larger bicycle datasets. We contribute BikeScenes as a resource for advancing research in cyclist-centric perception.

The Great Outdoors (GO) dataset is a multi-modal annotated data resource aimed at advancing ground robotics research in unstructured environments. Existing off-road datasets often lack sensor diversity and exclude vital modalities like thermal and radar that are critical for operation in degraded conditions (e.g., low visibility or adverse weather). To address these gaps, we introduce a large-scale multimodal off-road dataset with six complementary sensor modalities, along with semantic annotations and GPS traces, to support tasks such as semantic segmentation, object detection, and SLAM. The diverse environmental conditions represented in the dataset present significant real-world challenges, which provide opportunities to develop more robust solutions to support the continued advancement of field robotics, autonomous exploration, and perception systems in natural environments.

Some low-cost Internet of Things (IoT) sensor deployments lack device-level source authentication, leaving them vulnerable to impersonation or injected sensor readings. We present a lightweight approach to sensor impersonation detection in a small proof-of-concept study. We formulate detection as a sequence-prediction problem. A model with three LSTM layers and two fully connected layers is trained only on univariate temperature readings from a genuine sensor, and a window of readings is flagged when its mean absolute prediction error exceeds the mean genuine error by more than six standard deviations. The model is converted to TensorFlow Lite in three variants, non-quantized (554 KB), 16-bit weight quantized (298.5 KB), and 8-bit weight quantized (185 KB), targeting an Arduino Nano 33 BLE aggregator. The variants were evaluated with the TensorFlow Lite interpreter on the local server, since on-device execution of LSTM models was not yet supported by TensorFlow Lite for Microcontrollers at the time of the study. On a controlled testbed with the impostor sensor placed in a hotter outdoor location, the three variants reached detection accuracies of 99.980%, 99.972%, and 98.206%, and each flagged the change point when a test sequence switched from genuine to impostor data. Quantization made the model smaller but slower in our measurements. The genuine and impostor distributions were well separated, so these results show detection of a controlled distribution shift and should not be read as evidence of general device authentication.
