Abstract

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), wherein sensing and communication share the same frequency band and hardware, has emerged as a pivotal technology in future wireless systems. A thorough study is required for researchers because ISAC has attracted a lot of interest and attention from academia and industry. In this paper, we present a bibliometric review that seeks to map the current state of ISAC research by addressing three crucial aspects. The aspects are (1) locating key journals, and significant authors, and creating network maps within ISAC; (2) defining theme-based clusters based on keyword co-occurrence analysis; and (3) developing a strong research framework to direct future ISAC investigations. This study provides profound insights and a structured foundation for researchers, enhancing the understanding and development of ISAC technologies. By highlighting significant advancements and research trends, this review aims to foster further innovation and academic discourse in the field of ISAC.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Communication Systems provides a forum for R&D, open to researchers from all types of institutions and organisations worldwide, aimed at the increasingly important area of communication technology. The Journal''s emphasis is particularly on the issues impacting behaviour at the system, service and management levels. Published twelve times a year, it provides coverage of advances that have a significant potential to impact the immense technical and commercial opportunities in the communications sector. The International Journal of Communication Systems strives to select a balance of contributions that promotes technical innovation allied to practical relevance across the range of system types and issues. The Journal addresses both public communication systems (Telecommunication, mobile, Internet, and Cable TV) and private systems (Intranets, enterprise networks, LANs, MANs, WANs). The following key areas and issues are regularly covered: -Transmission/Switching/Distribution technologies (ATM, SDH, TCP/IP, routers, DSL, cable modems, VoD, VoIP, WDM, etc.) -System control, network/service management -Network and Internet protocols and standards -Client-server, distributed and Web-based communication systems -Broadband and multimedia systems and applications, with a focus on increased service variety and interactivity -Trials of advanced systems and services; their implementation and evaluation -Novel concepts and improvements in technique; their theoretical basis and performance analysis using measurement/testing, modelling and simulation -Performance evaluation issues and methods.
