contents In this correspondence, we investigate networked sensing in perceptive mobile networks under a bistatic multi-transmitter single-receiver uplink topology, where multiple user equipments (UEs) transmit signals over orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) resources and a single base station performs joint sensing. Uplink clock asynchronism introduces offsets that destroy inter-packet coherence and hinder high-resolution sensing, while multi-user observations exhibit exploitable cross-user correlation. We therefore formulate an asynchronous multi-user uplink OFDMA sensing model and exploit common delay-cluster sparsity across UEs. A line-of-sight (LoS)-referenced calibration first suppresses the offsets, after which a shared-private delay-domain sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) model is used for delay support recovery and user grouping. Doppler and angle of arrival are then estimated from temporal and spatial phase differences. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms per-user processing, particularly under limited subcarrier budgets and in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regimes.
