Smart Wireless Human Sensing

Overview

Recently, the role of wireless communications has been extended from purely transmitting data to combing both communication and sensing. Corresponding, wireless sensing technologies can be utilized to track one's locations, one's behaviors, and one's activities and gestures in a non-intrusive manner. We adopt off-the-shelf commercial devices, e.g., WiFi and RFID, to sense human behavior. Specifically, we focus on sensing the human information for healthcare applications. We obtain fine-grained sleep information like a person's respiration, sleeping postures and rollovers. In addition, we address the issues in multi-person respiration monitoring, respiration monitoring in dynamic environments, and locomotor-respiratory coupling measurement during exercise to expand the application scenarios.
