WiFi Sensing

Common card · No. 368169

Wi-Fi Sensing (also referred to as WLAN Sensing or 802.11bf) is a technology that uses existing Wi-Fi signals for the purpose of detecting events or changes such as motion, gesture recognition, and biometric measurements (e.g. breathing). Wi-Fi Sensing allows for the utilization of conventional Wi-Fi transceiver hardware and Radio Frequency (RF) spectrum for both communication and sensing purposes. The integration of communication and sensing functionalities within mobile networking technology constitutes a large area of exploration and is commonly referred to as Joint Communications and radar/radio Sensing (JCAS). This convergence of technologies presents an opportunity to harness pre-existing hardware and infrastructure, fostering the emergence of novel services, while facilitating a higher level of interaction with networked devices (e.g. IoT and automation). Wi-Fi technology operates across multiple frequency bands, Broadly categorized into two groups: (a) sub-7 GHz (including 2.4...
