The measurement setup comprises the customized versions of Intel's close-source firmware and open-source iwlwifi wireless driver, userspace tools to enable these measurements, access point functionality for controlling both ends of the link, and Matlab scripts for data analysis.Abstract:
We are pleased to announce the release of a tool that records detailed measurements of the wireless channel along with received 802.11 packet traces. It runs on a commodity 802.11n NIC, and records Channel State Information (CSI) based on the 802.11 standard. Unlike Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) values, which merely capture the total power received at the listener, the CSI contains information about the channel between sender and receiver at the level of individual data subcarriers, for each pair of transmit and receive antennas.Our toolkit uses the Intel WiFi Link 5300 wireless NIC with 3 antennas. It works on up-to-date Linux operating systems: in our testbed we use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with the 2.6.36 kernel. The measurement setup comprises our customized versions of Intel's close-source firmware and open-source iwlwifi wireless driver, userspace tools to enable these measurements, access point functionality for controlling both ends of the link, and Matlab (or Octave) scripts for data analysis. We are releasing the binary of the modified firmware, and the source code to all the other components.read more

A Stacked Neural Network-Based Machine Learning Framework to Detect Activities and Falls Within Multiple Indoor Environments Using Wi-Fi CSI
TL;DR: In this paper, a stacked neural network is developed that selects which environment or room a person is located within, before engaging a room-level model for activity recognition, which allows machine learning models to be iteratively deployed to multiple environments without retraining previously deployed room level models.

Adversary Helps: Gradient-based Device-Free Domain-Independent Gesture Recognition
TL;DR: The concept of domain gap is defined and a more promising solution is proposed, namely DI, to eliminate domain gap and further achieve domain-independent gesture recognition, which outperforms existing solutions.

A Dynamic Differential Phase Analysis Method for Wireless Sensing
TL;DR: A differential phase change rate metric is designed to characterize the degree of target influence in the vicinity of the receiver, and a scale-variable scheme is developed to enlarge the influenced signals by changing the distance between adjacent receiving antennas.

Predictable 802.11 packet delivery from wireless channel measurements
TL;DR: It is shown that, for the first time, wireless packet delivery can be accurately predicted for commodity 802.11 NICs from only the channel measurements that they provide, and the rate prediction is as good as the best rate adaptation algorithms for 802.
