An Experimental Study on Fine-Grained Bistatic Sensing of UAV Trajectory via Cellular Downlink Signals

In this letter, a dual-bistatic unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) tracking system utilizing downlink Long-Term Evolution (LTE) signals is proposed and demonstrated. Particularly, two LTE base stations (BSs) are exploited as illumination sources. Two passive sensing receivers are deployed at different locations to detect the bistatic Doppler frequencies of the target UAV at different directions according to downlink signals transmitted from their corresponding BSs, such that the velocities of the UAV versus time can be estimated. Hence, the trajectories of the target UAV can be reconstructed. Although both the target UAV and the sensing receivers are around 200 meters away from the illuminating BSs, it is demonstrated by experiments that the tracking errors are below 50 centimeters for 90% of the complicated trajectories, when the distances between the UAV and sensing receivers are less than 30 meters. Note this accuracy is significantly better than the ranging resolution of LTE signals, high-accuracy trajectory tracking for UAV might be feasible via multi-angle bistatic Doppler measurements if the receivers are deployed with a sufficient density.

Doppler-Based Multistatic Drone Tracking via Cellular Downlink Signals

In this paper, a multistatic Doppler sensing system is proposed for the drone tracking via downlink Long-Term Evolution (LTE) signals. Specifically, the LTE base stations (BSs) are exploited as signal illuminators, and three passive sensing receivers are deployed at different locations to detect the bistatic Doppler frequencies of a target drone from received downlink signals. It is shown that even without the measurements of BS-drone-receiver range and angle, the Doppler measurements could provide sufficient information for trajectory tracking. Particularly, the trajectory of the target drone, consisting of the initial position and velocities of all the time slots, can be reconstructed by solving a minimum mean-squared error problem according to the above Doppler measurements. It is demonstrated by experiment that although the target drone and all the sensing receivers are around 200 meters away from the illuminating BSs, the complicated trajectories can be tracked with 90% errors below 90 centimeters. Since this accuracy is notably higher than the typical range resolution of LTE signals, the demonstration shows that drone trajectory tracking with a high accuracy could be feasible solely according to Doppler detection, as long as the deployment density of receivers is sufficiently high.

CASTER: A Computer-Vision-Assisted Wireless Channel Simulator for Gesture Recognition

In this paper, a computer-vision-assisted simulation method is proposed to address the issue of training dataset acquisition for wireless hand gesture recognition. In the existing literature, in order to classify gestures via the wireless channel estimation, massive training samples should be measured in a consistent environment, consuming significant efforts. In the proposed CASTER simulator, however, the training dataset can be simulated via existing videos. Particularly, a gesture is represented by a sequence of snapshots, and the channel impulse response of each snapshot is calculated via tracing the rays scattered off a primitive-based hand model. Moreover, CASTER simulator relies on the existing videos to extract the motion data of gestures. Thus, the massive measurements of wireless channel can be eliminated. The experiments demonstrate a 90.8% average classification accuracy of simulation-to-reality inference.

Passive Respiration Detection via mmWave Communication Signal Under Interference

Recent research has highlighted the detection of human respiration rate using commodity WiFi devices. Nevertheless, these devices encounter challenges in accurately discerning human respiration amidst the prevailing human motion interference encountered in daily life. To tackle this predicament, this paper introduces a passive sensing and communication system designed specifically for respiration detection in the presence of robust human motion interference. Operating within the 60.48 GHz band, the proposed system aims to detect human respiration even when confronted with substantial human motion interference within close proximity. Subsequently, a neural network is trained using the collected data by us to enable human respiration detection. The experimental results demonstrate a consistently high accuracy rate over 90\% of the human respiration detection under interference, given an adequate sensing duration. Finally, an empirical model is derived analytically to achieve the respiratory rate counting in 10 seconds.
