Abstract:Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems commonly extract target parameters by peak-searching a delay-Doppler map (DDM) constructed from reflected pilots. In multi-target scenarios, this results in ambiguity: the DDM does not reveal which physical target produced which peak, and two targets within the same delay-Doppler resolution cell cannot be separated. We propose a vision-assisted OFDM-ISAC framework that resolves both limitations by fusing wireless and visual modalities. The transmitter encodes an onboard street-view image with deep joint source-channel coding (DeepJSCC) and transmits it over the same OFDM waveform used for sensing; the receiver reconstructs the image, runs a fine-tuned YOLOv5 detector and fuses the resulting per-target features (bounding-box coordinates and class labels) with the DDM and transmitter-receiver geometry through a learned multi-modal network. To stabilize training of the high dimensional delay and Doppler classifiers, we introduce a Kullback Leibler loss against triangular soft labels centered on the ground-truth bin. On a Blender-rendered vehicular testbed, the proposed framework achieves a 16 cm localization root mean square error (RMSE) and a 10.8 ns delay RMSE. An ablation study confirms that removing the visual modality causes a 60x degradation in localization. These results highlight the potential of vision to overcome the data-association and resolution limits of single-modality ISAC.
