Joint Human Orientation-Activity Recognition Using WiFi Signals for Human-Machine Interaction
share
WiFi sensing is an important part of the new WiFi 802.11bf standard, which can detect motion and measure distances. In recent years, some machine learning methods have been proposed for human activity recognition from WiFi signals. However, to the best of our knowledge, none of these methods have explored orientation prediction of the user using WiFi signals. Orientation prediction is particularly critical for human-machine interaction in an environment with multiple smart devices. In this paper, we propose a data collection setup and machine learning models for joint human orientation and activity recognition using WiFi signals from a single access point (AP) or multiple APs. The results show feasibility of joint orientation-activity recognition in an indoor environment with a high accuracy.
