   We study the information-theoretic limits of joint communication and sensing when the sensing task is modeled as the estimation of a discrete channel state fixed during the transmission of an entire codeword. This setting captures scenarios in which the time scale over which sensing happens is significantly slower than the time scale over which symbol transmission occurs. The tradeoff between communication and sensing then takes the form of a tradeoff region between the rate of reliable communication and the state detection-error exponent. We investigate such tradeoffs for both mono-static and bi-static scenarios, in which the sensing task is performed at the transmitter or receiver, respectively. In the mono-static case, we develop an exact characterization of the tradeoff in open-loop, when the sensing is not used to assist the communication. We also show the strict improvement brought by a closed-loop operation, in which the sensing informs the communication. In the bi-static case, we develop an achievable tradeoff region that highlights the fundamentally different nature of the bi-static scenario. Specifically, the rate of communication plays a key role in the characterization of the tradeoff and we show how joint strategies, which simultaneously estimate message and state, outperform successive strategies, which only estimate the state after decoding the transmitted message.

   We consider a communication model in which a transmitter attempts to communicate with a receiver over a state-dependent channel and simultaneously estimate the state using strictly causal noisy state observations. Motivated by joint communication and sensing scenarios in which the physical phenomenon of interest for sensing evolves at a much slower rate than the rate of communication, the state is assumed to remain constant over the duration of the transmission. We derive a complete characterization of the optimal asymptotic trade-off between communication rate and detection-error exponent when coding strategies are open loop. We also show that closed-loop strategies result in strict improvements of the trade-offs.
