In this paper, we propose a precoding framework for frequency division duplex (FDD) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). Specifically, we aim to maximize ergodic sum spectral efficiency (SE) while satisfying a sensing beam pattern constraint defined by the mean squared error (MSE). Our method reconstructs downlink (DL) channel state information (CSI) from uplink (UL) training signals using partial reciprocity, eliminating the need for CSI feedback. To mitigate interference caused by imperfect DL CSI reconstruction and sensing operations, we adopt rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA). We observe that the error covariance matrix of the reconstructed channel effectively compensates for CSI imperfections, affecting both communication and sensing performance. To obtain this, we devise an observed Fisher information-based estimation technique. We then optimize the precoder by solving the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions, jointly updating the precoding vector and Lagrange multipliers, and solving the nonlinear eigenvalue problem with eigenvector dependency to maximize SE. The numerical results show that the proposed design achieves precise beam pattern control, maximizes SE, and significantly improves the sensing-communication trade-off compared to the state-of-the-art methods in FDD ISAC scenarios.
