Popis: This study introduces a novel system for detecting humans inside a building by utilizing RF signals from the building’s exterior. Existing RF communication devices encounter signal attenuation issues when passing through walls, limiting their effectiveness. In contrast, our system employs a low-power, long-distance communication signal operating at 433 MHz to enhance signal permeability, enabling the accurate detection of individuals within the building. The system analyzes received signal strength indicator (RSSI) data using variance and mean analysis algorithms to determine the presence or absence of people. The evaluation results indicate promising average accuracies of 88% for the variance analysis algorithm and 97.7% for the mean analysis algorithm. The proposed system holds potential for real-world deployment, particularly in challenging scenarios such as fire incidents, where pre-installation is challenging. Continued research and development efforts aim to enhance the system’s performance and address any limitations, making it more effective and robust in various practical applications.
