This is an editorial paper focusing on emerging topics in joint wireless positioning, sensing, and communications. After introducing the sometimes-confusing and non-unified terminology in the field and defining the overall research area under the comprehensive terminology of Joint positioning, sensing, and communications (JPSAC), a brief state-of-the art overview is given, followed by a detailed list of emerging topics and open research questions. The ongoing Horizon Europe projects are also reviewed in relation to the emerging JPSAC. Some of the main trends in the JPSAC-related areas are related to extremely large-scale antennas and apertures, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, the integration of terrestrial and satellite-based communication, sensing, and positioning functionalities, and cell-free or distributed networks with JPSAC functions.
