Abstract:

This talk will introduce the theory and practice of using wireless RF
signals for sensing and profiling the environment dynamics. The talk will
review the state-of-the-art research results that have advanced the field
of study and discuss the challenges and limits when applying commodity
WiFi devices for various environments and application purposes. The talk
will introduce our recent research to fundamentally improve the resolution
and accuracy in WiFi sensing, as well as efforts in building generic
platforms and tools to support various Wi-Fi sensing applications. The
speaker will also share some of his other research experiences and
aspirations in the area of AIoT.
