Abstract

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), recognized for their high flexibility and rapid deployment, are increasingly utilized as key platforms for Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC). However, balancing on-demand service quality for users with robust sensing coverage for targets remains a critical challenge, especially in emergency scenarios where blind spots must be avoided. This paper proposes a dual-fairness framework for a UAV-assisted ISCC system. We formulate a joint optimization problem of sensing, computation, communication scheduling, and UAV 3D trajectory. To ensure service fairness among users, we adopt a logarithmic utility function to maximize the sum of the logarithm of user-received data volume. Simultaneously, to guarantee sensing fairness, we enforce a Minimum Sensing Rate Ratio (MSRR) constraint, ensuring that no target is persistently neglected. The formulated non-convex problem is solved via a proposed four-stage Alternating Optimization (AO) algorithm. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme effectively balances user service fairness with sensing robustness, achieving high-quality data delivery while strictly satisfying the sensing fairness requirements.
