The Promise of Radio Analytics: A Future Paradigm of Wireless Positioning, Tracking, and Sensing

With the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, billions of household appliances, phones, smart devices, security systems, environment sensors, vehicles, buildings, and other radio-connected devices will transmit data and communicate with each other or people, and it will be possible to constantly measure and track virtually everything. Among the various approaches to measuring what is happening in the surrounding environment, wireless sensing has received increasing attention in recent years because of the ubiquitous deployment of wireless radio devices. In addition, human activities affect wireless signal propagation, so understanding and analyzing how these signals react to human activities can reveal rich information about the activities around us.
