报告摘要：The pervasive deployment of the wireless sensor networks (WSN) in smart homes and cities has significantly changed the nature of the radio frequency spectrum, especially within the ISM band. The unplanned manner in which WSN nodes and anchors are deployed have led to a pell-mell of wireless bursts which limit the capacity and robustness of WSN's, while also increasing inter-system interference. The talk provides an alternative angle to disentangle the chaotic radio transmissions in congested wireless signal environments to offer a cyber-physical, especially human-related, sensing capability. The work focuses on extracting and interpreting the radio frequency properties of the wireless bursts in WSN, rather than the coded and modulated information. Examples of human activity sensing with 2.4 GHz 802.11 signals are shown to demonstrate the concept. The talk will also discuss the cognitive model, data fusion, identification problems derived from the opportunistic wireless sensing.
