Abstract:
Method, apparatus and systems for object tracking are disclosed. In one example, a disclosed method includes obtaining at least one time series of channel information (CI) of a wireless multipath channel using: a processor, a memory communicatively coupled with the processor and a set of instructions stored in the memory. The at least one time series of channel information is extracted from a wireless signal transmitted between a Type 1 heterogeneous wireless device at a first position in a venue and a Type 2 heterogeneous wireless device at a second position in the venue through the wireless multipath channel. The wireless multipath channel is impacted by a current movement of an object in the venue. The method also includes determining a spatial-temporal information of the object based on at least one of: the at least one time series of channel information, a time parameter associated with the current movement, and a past spatial-temporal information of the object. The at least one time series of channel information is preprocessed. Associated computation may be shared among the processor, the Type 1 heterogeneous wireless device and the Type 2 heterogeneous wireless device.

Claim (Index 8):
The method of  claim 7 :\n wherein, at the initial time during the prior movement of the object, one of the second Type 1 heterogeneous device and the second Type 2 heterogeneous device is spatially close to and moves with the object; wherein, at the initial time, the other one of the second Type 1 heterogeneous device and the second Type 2 heterogeneous device has a directional antenna; wherein the initial spatial-temporal information of the object at the initial time is determined to be a known location associated with the other one of the second Type 1 heterogeneous device and the second Type 2 heterogeneous device with the directional antenna. wherein, at a current time during the movement of the object, one of the first Type 1 heterogeneous device and the first Type 2 heterogeneous device is spatially close to and moves with the object; wherein, at the current time, one of the first Type 1 heterogeneous device and the first Type 2 heterogeneous device is at least one of:\n communicatively coupled with a network server, and \n communicatively coupled with a local device that is communicatively coupled with the network server; \n wherein the local device is at least one of: a smart phone, a smart device, a smart speaker, a smart watch, a smart glasses, a smart clock, a smart television, a smart oven, a smart refrigerator, a smart air-conditioner, a smart chair, a smart table, a smart accessory, a smart utility, a smart appliance, a smart machine, a smart vehicle, an internet-of-thing (IoT) device, an internet-enabled device, a computer, a portable computer, a tablet, a smart house, a smart office, a smart building, a smart parking lot, a smart system, and another device.
