Patent ID: 11835615

Abstract:
Systems and methods for Wi-Fi sensing using UL-OFDMA are provided. Wi-Fi sensing systems include sensing devices and sensing transmitters configured to communicate through radio-frequency signals. Initially, first channel resources are allocated to first expected transmissions from the sensing transmitters and first sensing trigger message to trigger first series of sensing transmissions from the sensing transmitters is transmitted. Further, a first series of sensing transmissions is received, and the first series of sensing measurements are generated. Thereafter, identification of feature of interest is obtained and a selection of sensing transmitters is determined. Second channel resources are allocated to second expected transmissions from the selection of sensing transmitters. A second sensing trigger message to trigger a second series of sensing transmissions from the selection of the sensing transmitters is provided. A series of sensing transmissions is received, and a second series of sensing measurements is generated based on the second series of sensing transmissions.
