Terahertz (THz) communications are envisioned as a key technology of next-generation wireless systems due to its ultra-broad bandwidth. By integrating communication and sensing, the the THz joint communication and sensing (JCS) system can realize both unprecedented data rates and ubiquitously accurate sensing. However, THz JCS meets stringent challenges due to the peculiarities of THz channel and devices. In this work, a sensing integrated discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SI-DFT-s-OFDM) system is proposed for THz JCS. The proposed system is able to provide lower peak-to-average power ratio than OFDM. Without compromising communication capabilities, SI-DFT-s-OFDM can realize millimeter-level range estimation accuracy and improve the velocity estimation accuracy by 10 times than OFDM. Finally, SI-DFT-s-OFDM achieves 18% improvement of data rate over DFT-s-OFDM.
