A comparison between ceiling-mounted FMCW, IR-UWB and Wi-Fi radar for in-bedroom human activity monitoring and sleep interruption detection

arXiv:2608. 20322v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite their growing importance for contact-free radio frequency (RF) based healthcare monitoring, different radio technologies such as frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar, impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB), and Wi-Fi sensing are rarely compared under identical deployment conditions, as existing studies typically differ in hardware, datasets, and evaluation methodologies.

Untangling the Geometry and Speed for RF Sensing Spectrograms

The paper introduces a physics‑informed autoencoder that separates reflector speed from sensing geometry in WiFi spectrograms, enabling joint recovery of speed, geometry factor, relative amplitude, and ridge width for each Doppler ridge. It builds a compact parametric representation of spectrograms validated on a large human‑activity dataset and employs a synthetic‑to‑real training framework to avoid real‑data collection. Experiments on synthetic and 31 real WiFi scenarios show the method outperforms existing baselines in accurately extracting speed and geometry information.

Deep Learning-Enhanced Real-Time Wi-Fi Sensing Through Single Transceiver Pair

The paper presents a deep learning‑enhanced Wi‑Fi sensing system that uses only a single transceiver pair to achieve real‑time human pose estimation and localization. By leveraging prior information and temporal correlation as side information, the system reduces estimation error under hardware constraints. Experimental results show an average pose error of 0.2189 m and a localization error of 0.6124 m while running at 42 fps on commodity hardware.

WiNeRF: Measurement Constrained Radiance Fields for Actionable Wireless Channel Modeling

WiNeRF is a neural field framework that learns a spatially continuous, complex-valued wireless channel representation from sparse channel state information collected by commodity WiFi devices. It incorporates system constraints such as antenna geometry, limited spatial resolution, and phase uncertainty through a 3D conical wave sampling model, a multi-resolution implicit scene representation, and a differentiable optimization framework. In diverse indoor environments with non‑line‑of‑sight regions, WiNeRF achieves a median prediction SNR of 5.3 dB, outperforming prior neural baselines by 4.9 dB on average, and produces a task‑agnostic channel representation that can be reused in standard signal‑processing pipelines without hardware or protocol changes.
