Original abstract

Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) from a function-oriented physical-layer technology into a goal-driven, closed-loop intelligent system, a paradigm we term AISAC. Existing work on learning-based sensing, resource allocation, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), edge intelligence, multi-agent coordination, and resilient networking has developed largely in isolation. This survey unifies the literature within a six-stage closed-loop framework comprising observation, contextualization, reasoning and prediction, planning and orchestration, execution and collaboration, and feedback and resilience. It also introduces five levels of agentic maturity, ranging from physical-layer primitives to fully closed-loop agentic ISAC. We use this framework to review advances in multimodal intelligence, large language models, reinforcement learning, federated learning, RIS-assisted control, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and vehicular networks, and AI-native network management, and analyze privacy, security, resilience, and sustainability as cross-cutting requirements of the full perception-reasoning-action loop. An audit of representative studies against nine agentic-specific evaluation criteria shows that no system reports more than one or two of them, exposing a gap between claimed and demonstrated agentic maturity. We identify open challenges in physical-to-semantic grounding, predictive world models, real-time agent-PHY interaction, safe tool use, heterogeneous multi-agent collaboration, benchmarking, and resource-efficient autonomy.
