Abstract:
Method, apparatus and systems for detecting motion of an object or person have been disclosed. The method and the accompanying apparatus for motion detection include determining a plurality of channel impulse response (CIR) power profiles over a plurality of time sampling taps of one or more received signals, time aligning the plurality of the CIR power profiles based on time sampling taps of one or more occurrences of peak CIR power levels being above a threshold in each of the plurality of the CIR power profiles for generating a reference CIR power profile, and detecting motion based on a comparison of the reference CIR power profile to a captured signal CIR power profile. The detecting motion may be based on a coarse motion detection process, and followed by a fine motion detection process if a correlation degree threshold is below a level in the coarse motion detection process.
Abstract:
Implementations of the technology described herein provide adjustment to the time-of-departure (ToD) of the start of the acknowledgement frames (ACK) based on the time-of-arrival (ToA) estimation and correction of their corresponding message frames to keep the turnaround time of the acknowledgement frames stable to a predefined order of precision, with special applications for Wi-Fi ranging to achieve double-sided time-of-arrival (ToA) correction accuracy with minimal frame exchanges. A receiving station uses its time-of-arrival (ToA) correction to adjust the transmission time of an acknowledgement message (ACK) so that both the sending station and the receiving station can estimate round trip time (RTT) (or perform ranging) at the same level or higher accuracy.
Abstract:
Aspects presented herein may improve the accuracy and reliability of radio frequency (RF) sensing performed by wireless devices, which may include detection of living objects with minimal movements (e.g., breathing). In one aspect, a UE receives a set of signals over a time period, where each signal in the set of signals includes a superposition of multipath signals traversed by the signal and a leakage signal. The UE filters out the leakage signal from each signal in the set of signals to obtain the superposition of the multipath signals for each signal. The UE detects whether there is a variance across the filtered set of signals over the time period. The UE identifies a presence of at least one moving object in response to the detection of the variance.
Abstract:
A method for locating a target object, includes: determining a plurality of position-distance values, each of the plurality of position-distance values includes: a position of a user equipment relative to a reference position; and a distance corresponding to the position of the user equipment, the distance being between the position of the user equipment and the target object measured using one or more wireless ranging signals between the user equipment and the target object, where each position of the user equipment in the plurality of position-distance values is different; and calculating a position of the target object using the plurality of position-distance values, where the position of the target object is relative to the reference position.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for reducing signaling latency in multi-link devices (MLDs). An example method of providing latency sensitive information with a MLD includes receiving downlink data packets from a station via a first radio link, performing radio frequency sensing with a second radio link, detecting a latency sensitive event, and transmitting an indication of the latency sensitive event.
Abstract:
A mobile device is disclosed. The mobile device may receive one or more wireless local area network (WLAN) signals. The mobile device may determine Channel State Information (CSI) data from the one or more WLAN signals. The mobile device may determine one or more environmental characteristics associated with an environment of the mobile device based on the CSI data. The mobile device may send information indicative of the one or more environmental characteristics to a location server (LS), or determine a position of the mobile device based at least in part on the one or more environmental characteristics, or any combination thereof.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for reporting channel state information (CSI). In some implementations, a receiving device may acquire a set of channel frequency response (CFR) values associated with one or more sounding packets that are received from a transmitting device and may group the set of CFR values into multiple subsets according to a number of transmit antennas of the transmitting device, a number of receive antennas of the receiving device, or a number of tones spanning a bandwidth of the wireless channel. In such implementations, the receiving device may transmit one or more CSI report frames each carrying a respective subset of the CFR values. In some other implementations, a receiving device may acquire multiple CSI associated with respective sounding packets and may transmit a single CSI report frame carrying the CSI for each of the wireless channels.
Abstract:
A first device includes one or more processors configured to determine, based on one or more wireless signals, a candidate device list identifying one or more devices that are within a communication range of one or more sensing devices. The one or more processors are further configured to, based on a determination to initiate a shared media session with a second device of the candidate device list, receive a media stream including particular media content from a remote media service while the particular media content is being sent from the remote media service to the second device. The one or more processors are further configured to, based on the determination to initiate the shared media session, cause the particular media content to be output, based on synchronization information, contemporaneous with output of the particular media content at the second device.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications at a first wireless node generally including generating a first frame associated with a timestamp, outputting the first frame, for transmission to a second wireless node, as part of a ranging procedure, and outputting, for transmission, signaling comprising information regarding a transmit impulse response of the first frame.

Disclosed are various techniques for wireless positioning. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) determines one or more angle-based measurements of one or more reference signal resources transmitted by or received at the UE on one or more antennas of the UE and reports, to a positioning entity, the one or more angle-based measurements, a beam pattern associated with the one or more reference signal resources, a type of the one or more antennas, locations of the one or more antennas on the UE, an orientation of the one or more antennas, or any combination thereof.
