| Summary: | Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) is a new, promising modulation waveform candidate for the next-generation integrated sensing and communication (ISaC) systems, providing environment-awareness capabilities together with high-speed wireless data communications. This paper presents the original results of OTFS-based person monitoring measurements in the 60 GHz millimeter-wave frequency band under realistic conditions, without the assumption of an integer ratio between the actual delays and Doppler shifts of the reflected components and the corresponding resolution of the OTFS grid. As the main contribution of the paper, we propose the use of the persistent homology technique as a method for processing gathered delay-Doppler responses. We highlight the advantages of the persistent homology approach over the standard constant false alarm rate target detector for selected scenarios.
