Beam scanning for joint detection and communication in integrated sensing and communication(ISAC) systems plays a critical role in continuous monitoring and rapid adaptation to dynamic environments. However, the design of sequential scanning beams for target detection with the required sensing resolution has not been tackled in the *** bridge this gap, this paper introduces a resolution-aware beam scanning design. In particular, the transmit information beamformer, the covariance matrix of the dedicated radar signal, and the receive beamformer are jointly optimized to maximize the average sum rate of the system while satisfying the sensing resolution and detection probability requirements.A block coordinate descent(BCD)-based optimization framework is developed to address the non-convex design problem. By exploiting successive convex approximation(SCA), S-procedure, and semidefinite relaxation(SDR), the proposed algorithm is guaranteed to converge to a stationary solution with polynomial time complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed design can efficiently handle the stringent detection requirement and outperform existing antenna-activation-based methods in the literature by exploiting the full degrees of freedom(DoFs) brought by all antennas.

The emerging field of topological acoustics provides exciting possibilities for controlling sound propagation with extraordinary robustness. Conventional topological acoustic waveguides built from topological edge states, which arise solely from the nontrivial topology in the momentum space, usually have restricted shapes due to their crystalline structures. Here, we show that, using an acoustic topological system with both nontrivial topologies in the real and momentum spaces, free-form acoustic topological waveguides can be constructed. These topological waveguides support disclination-localized states, caused by the interplay between topological lattice defects and the valley-Hall topology. As demonstrated in our simulations and experiments, such disclination waveguides can take arbitrary shapes and form open arcs within the lattice, which are not possible for previous crystalline acoustic topological waveguides. Furthermore, by increasing the number of topological lattice defects, we can realize more than one topological waveguide in one lattice. They join at the topological lattice defect and form a topological waveguide network, enabling more complicated functionalities such as beam splitting. Our results point to a promising direction for free-form acoustic topological devices with the advantages of embedded forms, easy cascading, and high robustness.
