The integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is considered to be an important candidate technology for future wireless communication, which can overcome the problem that the line-of-sight (LoS) path of ground communication in millimeter wave or terahertz band is easily blocked. However, recent studies have shown that due to the change of wind speed, the vibration of wing and other factors, UAV will appear jittering effect, which will seriously affect the communication performance. With the continuous research of ISAC, it is also necessary to explore the impact of UAV jittering on the sensing performance. This paper first proposes the UAV jittering model, then takes the target angle sensing scheme based on time-division wave scanning as an example, and explores the influence of UAV jittering on target sensing. This paper finds that UAV jittering has great influence on the accuracy and resolution of target sensing. Simulation results confirm this conclusion.
