- The bibliography is curated and non-exhaustive; inclusion is not a citation ranking, endorsement, or claim of historical priority.
- Publication metadata was checked through 2026-07-18 using DOI, publisher, Crossref, or official preprint records. DOI-linked versions of record are preferred over search-result and duplicate preprint links.
- Standards status was checked on the same date using official 3GPP, IEEE, ITU-R, and ETSI records. A study, report, draft, specification, and published standard are not interchangeable maturity levels.
- “First,” “latest,” “state of the art,” performance, deployment, and standards-compliance claims require a primary source and an explicit comparison boundary.
- Passing code tests establishes only the properties exercised by those tests; it does not by itself establish numerical reproduction of a paper.
- The audit report records corrections, remaining limits, and the two independent acceptance gates.
Our survey organizes ISAC research along five evolutionary axes.
Reading note. The arrows below are conceptual coverage maps, not claims of technical priority, linear replacement, or universal performance improvement. Dates in the detailed timelines are publication or standards-record dates for representative, source-verified entries—not dates of first invention.

See the official-record standards snapshot for document type, version, maturity, verification date, and source links. Standards status can change and must be rechecked before downstream reliance.
The original six-section layout and all 44 entries are retained. This 53-entry view adds nine DOI-linked records: four established surveys spanning fundamental limits, mobile networks, signal design, and cell-free networks, plus five selected recent papers. Twenty-seven entries are also present in the machine-frozen topical catalogue; 24 additional formal records were restored after title-level Crossref/DOI verification, one formal early-access record is kept outside the volume-complete catalogue, and one item is explicitly identified as a preprint.
Within each section, a version of record is preferred to a preprint; ordering then considers direct ISAC relevance, breadth or technical contribution, venue standing in the corresponding subfield, publication completeness, and recency as a tie-breaker. A targeted review of the maintainer's recent publications used these same criteria: no author receives a dedicated section or special styling, and overlapping, preprint-only, editorial, or out-of-scope work is not promoted solely because of authorship. Dynamic citation counts are not used. The sections cover different research questions, so position is not a universal cross-topic quality ranking.

The machine-frozen topical catalogue contains 66 publication rows covering 54 unique DOI-linked works. A work may appear in more than one topic, so row counts must not be added and presented as a unique-paper count. Standards are counted separately because they are not research papers.

These are runnable research and educational reference packages, not complete end-user applications. Completing a documented command and receiving a passing certificate establishes only the declared equations, numerical invariants, and software behavior. It does not by itself establish reproduction of a paper's figures, experiments, hardware results, or complete algorithm.
| Evidence level | Manifest value | Required interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Exact reproduction | exact-reproduction |
Original algorithm, data or simulator, parameters, deterministic command, and machine-checked comparison to specified paper values or figures with declared tolerances |
| Equation-level reference | equation-level |
Explicitly bounded analytical slice with independent numerical or analytic oracles and declared tolerances; no full-paper parity |
| Research reference | research-reference |
Cited method or algorithmic structure with targeted tests, but no complete original-condition numerical comparison |
| Educational surrogate | educational-surrogate |
Simplified, substituted, fallback, or synthetic model for study and software testing |

No local baseline currently qualifies as an exact reproduction, and every
manifest declares paper_figure_parity: false. Repository-generated figures are
examples unless a paper-value comparison artifact with declared tolerances is
accepted.
Audited snapshot, 2026-07-18: the homepage-preservation revision passed 666/666 strict tests in the locked Python 3.12 environment; all seven executable certificates passed their 99/99 declared checks; and the covered run measured 85.05% aggregate statement coverage. The protected workflow repeats the current tree on Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12 before merge. These are repository-level software results, not seven paper-reproduction certificates. See code/README.md and the audit report.
There is currently no verified cross-method leaderboard in this repository. No benchmark runner or published ranking artifact is presented as if it existed.
A future result is eligible for review only when it records:
| Requirement | Minimum evidence |
|---|---|
| Task and data | Exact task, dataset or simulator version, preprocessing, split, and exclusions |
| Physical model | Channel, waveform, array, power, noise, target, and hardware assumptions |
| Metrics | Definitions, units, aggregation, uncertainty or confidence intervals, and failure handling |
| Environment | Pinned dependencies, deterministic seeds where supported, and exact command |
| Results | Machine-readable artifact tied to a repository commit |
| Comparisons | Competing methods evaluated under the same protocol with primary-source citations |
| Independent verification | A separate rerun within declared numerical tolerances |
BER, communication rate, detection probability, localization error, CRB, energy efficiency, latency, and Pareto summaries measure different objectives; they must not be collapsed into one ranking without a declared normalization and comparison protocol. See benchmark/README.md.
Every accepted revision must pass both independent gates; passing one cannot compensate for failing the other.
| Gate | Required checks |
|---|---|
| Gate 1 — Software and simulation integrity | Exact direct dependencies; Python 3.10–3.12 locked matrix; no-cache macOS arm64 installs; warning-free tests and compilation; valid CFF/YAML; aggregate coverage ≥70%; seven machine-readable certificates; deterministic comparison whenever reproduction is claimed |
| Gate 2 — Scholarly content and link integrity | Canonical identifiers; correct title/author/venue/year metadata; one identifier–one work consistency; official standards status; explicit evidence boundaries; no unsupported priority, performance, deployment, or reproduction claims; deterministic internal-link scan and independent live-link audit |
The protected main branch requires all eight exact GitHub Actions jobs, strict
branch updating, resolved conversations, and linear history. Administrators are
also subject to the rule; force pushes and branch deletion are disabled. The
solo-maintainer policy requires no second-person approval, but it does not bypass
either automated gate. See AUDIT_REPORT.md for exact results
and limits.
Contributions are welcome. Please read CONTRIBUTING.md before opening a pull request. It explains:
- 📖 how to add or correct publications using canonical identifiers and primary evidence;
- 📋 how to record standards and pre-standardization work at the correct maturity;
- 📊 how to add datasets and tools with source, version, license, and compatibility boundaries;
- 💻 how to contribute or upgrade an evidence-graded baseline;
- 🏆 what evidence is required before submitting benchmark results;
- ✅ the scholarly-content and software-integrity checklist used during review.
Strong claims such as “first,” “state of the art,” “optimal,” “deployed,” or “reproduced” require direct evidence and an explicit comparison boundary.
