Abstract
Recent work has demonstrated the use of the radio interface as a sensing modality for gestures, activities and situational perception. The field generally moves towards larger bandwidths, multiple antennas, and higher, mmWave frequency domains, which allow for the recognition of minute movements. We envision another set of applications for RF sensing: battery-less autonomous sensing devices. In this work, we investigate transceiver-less passive RF-sensors which are excited by the fluctuation of the received power over the wireless channel. In particular, we demonstrate the use of battery-less RF-sensing for applications of on-body gesture recognition integrated into smart garment, as well as the integration of such sensing capabilities into smart surfaces.
