Human Motion Trajectory Prediction: A Survey
With growing numbers of intelligent autonomous systems in human environments,
the ability of such systems to perceive, understand and anticipate human
behavior becomes increasingly important. Specifically, predicting future
positions of dynamic agents and planning considering such predictions are key
tasks for self-driving vehicles, service robots and advanced surveillance
systems. This paper provides a survey of human motion trajectory prediction. We
review, analyze and structure a large selection of work from different
communities and propose a taxonomy that categorizes existing methods based on
the motion modeling approach and level of contextual information used. We
provide an overview of the existing datasets and performance metrics. We
discuss limitations of the state of the art and outline directions for further
research.Comment: Submitted to the International Journal of Robotics Research (IJRR),

Data-driven Integrated Sensing and Communication: Recent Advances, Challenges, and Future Prospects
Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC), combined with data-driven
approaches, has emerged as a highly significant field, garnering considerable
attention from academia and industry. Its potential to enable wide-scale
applications in the future sixth-generation (6G) networks has led to extensive
recent research efforts. Machine learning (ML) techniques, including
-nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machines (SVM), deep learning (DL)
architectures, and reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms, have been deployed
to address various design aspects of ISAC and its diverse applications.
Therefore, this paper aims to explore integrating various ML techniques into
ISAC systems, covering various applications. These applications span
intelligent vehicular networks, encompassing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)
and autonomous cars, as well as radar applications, localization and tracking,
millimeter wave (mmWave) and Terahertz (THz) communication, and beamforming.
The contributions of this paper lie in its comprehensive survey of ML-based
works in the ISAC domain and its identification of challenges and future
research directions. By synthesizing the existing knowledge and proposing new
research avenues, this survey serves as a valuable resource for researchers,
practitioners, and stakeholders involved in advancing the capabilities of ISAC
systems in the context of 6G networks.Comment: ISAC-ML surve
Massive MIMO is a Reality -- What is Next? Five Promising Research Directions for Antenna Arrays
Massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) is no longer a "wild" or
"promising" concept for future cellular networks - in 2018 it became a reality.
Base stations (BSs) with 64 fully digital transceiver chains were commercially
deployed in several countries, the key ingredients of Massive MIMO have made it
into the 5G standard, the signal processing methods required to achieve
unprecedented spectral efficiency have been developed, and the limitation due
to pilot contamination has been resolved. Even the development of fully digital
Massive MIMO arrays for mmWave frequencies - once viewed prohibitively
complicated and costly - is well underway. In a few years, Massive MIMO with
fully digital transceivers will be a mainstream feature at both sub-6 GHz and
mmWave frequencies. In this paper, we explain how the first chapter of the
Massive MIMO research saga has come to an end, while the story has just begun.
The coming wide-scale deployment of BSs with massive antenna arrays opens the
door to a brand new world where spatial processing capabilities are
omnipresent. In addition to mobile broadband services, the antennas can be used
for other communication applications, such as low-power machine-type or
ultra-reliable communications, as well as non-communication applications such
as radar, sensing and positioning. We outline five new Massive MIMO related
research directions: Extremely large aperture arrays, Holographic Massive MIMO,
Six-dimensional positioning, Large-scale MIMO radar, and Intelligent Massive
MIMO.Comment: 20 pages, 9 figures, submitted to Digital Signal Processin
Fusion of Data from Heterogeneous Sensors with Distributed Fields of View and Situation Evaluation for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems
In order to develop a driver assistance system for pedestrian protection, pedestrians in the environment of a truck are detected by radars and a camera and are tracked across distributed fields of view using a Joint Integrated Probabilistic Data Association filter. A robust approach for prediction of the system vehicles trajectory is presented. It serves the computation of a probabilistic collision risk based on reachable sets where different sources of uncertainty are taken into account
