Popis: Machine learning techniques applied to radio frequency (RF) signals are used for many applications in addition to data communication. In this paper, the authors propose a machine learning solution for classifying the number of people within an indoor ambient. The main idea is to identify a pattern of received signal characteristics according to the number of people. Experimental measurements are performed using a software-defined radio platform inside a laboratory. The data collected is post-processed by applying a feature mapping technique based on mean, standard deviation, and Shannon information entropy. This feature-space data is then used to train a supervised machine learning network for classifying scenarios with zero, one, two, and three people inside. The proposed solution presents significant accuracy in classification performance.
