Abstract: Integrated sensing and communication technology utilizes wireless signals to achieve sensing func-tions such as target localization, detection, imaging and identification, which is one of the most core services and applications of future 6G communications. In 5G communication networks, partial communication sensing technology can enhance network collaboration and resource allocation by sensing base station directions. This paper focuses on the direction finding of the signal source in 5G mobile communication systems. To this end, we extend the multipath angle estimation algorithm based on narrowband transmitted signals to the OFDM systems in 5G networks, and propose an al-gorithm to sense the directional angle of base stations using the autocorrelation property of the primary synchronization sequence in the downlink synchronization process of 5G systems. We evaluate the algorithm’s performance using an accurate qualitative radio channel generator at dif-ferent signal-to-noise ratios. The simulation results demonstrate that the 5G base station sensing algorithm can clearly represent the direction of base stations and scatterers relative to the receiver.
