Description

Indoor imaging method and device based on WiFi channel state information
Technical Field
The exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to an indoor imaging method and device based on WiFi channel state information.
Background
The microwave imaging technology is a popular subject technology, and has wide application in the fields of industrial detection, radar reconnaissance, medical rescue and the like by virtue of good penetrating performance and the characteristic of basically no radiation damage to a human body. However, the existing microwave imaging equipment has the characteristics of large volume, high price, no concealment and the like, so that the microwave imaging equipment is not convenient to use in daily life all the time. And the common WiFi commercial equipment which is widely used and low in price at present can just make up the defect, and can meet the basic requirement of daily indoor imaging.
At present, an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system is adopted in a WiFi technology based on an 802.11n protocol, and a Channel response, that is, Channel State Information (CSI), superimposed by a multipath signal can be acquired in space. CSI describes the attenuation factors of the signal in each transmission path in the frequency and time domains, such as signal scattering, environmental attenuation, distance attenuation, etc., in the form of complex amplitudes. Therefore, by measuring the wireless signals by using the CSI, fine-grained Channel Frequency Responses (CFRs) of each subcarrier can be obtained, and rich surrounding environment information can be captured, thereby realizing imaging of indoor objects.
The main principle of the WiFi imaging technology is as follows: the signal of the transmitter is transmitted to the surface of an object, then the signal reaches a receiver through a series of processes of reflection, transmission and diffraction, the frequency domain signal distribution of the surface of the object is obtained through backward transmission of the received CSI signal, then Two-Dimensional in-vertical discrete Fourier Transform (IFFT 2) is carried out on discrete points on a plane to obtain the signal intensity, and the three-Dimensional view of the object is recovered. However, the complex amplitude of the channel response presented by CSI during signal propagation and reception is noisy and cannot fully reflect the change of the signal passing through the environment. Meanwhile, due to the fact that the WIFI signal is used for transmitting data instead of an imaging design, each channel is only 20MHz in bandwidth, the resolution ratio is low, and the outline of a target object in the environment cannot be accurately distinguished. Therefore, these problems must be addressed to achieve imaging with commercial WiFi devices.

Detailed Description
For the purpose of promoting a better understanding of the objects, aspects and advantages of the present disclosure, reference is made to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
It should be noted that technical terms or scientific terms used in the exemplary embodiments of the present invention should have a general meaning as understood by those having ordinary skill in the art to which the present disclosure pertains, unless otherwise defined. The use of "first," "second," and similar language in the exemplary embodiments of the invention is not intended to imply any order, quantity, or importance, but rather the intention is to distinguish one element from another. The word "comprising" or "comprises", and the like, means that the element or item listed before the word covers the element or item listed after the word and its equivalents, but does not exclude other elements or items. The terms "connected" or "coupled" and the like are not restricted to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. "upper", "lower", "left", "right", and the like are used merely to indicate relative positional relationships, and when the absolute position of the object being described is changed, the relative positional relationships may also be changed accordingly.
It should be noted that the bandwidth of the WIFI signal is small, the image is blurred during direct imaging, and the WIFI signal cannot be used for commercial use, and the method of the present invention is not dependent on the bandwidth, but is set by a delicate device, so that when a receiving surface collects a detected object or CSI data after transmission of the detected object according to a preset aperture and spatial frequency, the image of the detected object is quickly generated according to relevant parameters in the complex amplitude information of the CSI data.
In one implementation of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the method of the present invention, where the application scenario includes:
in the process that a WiFi signal passes through a transmitting end 102 of a commercial WiFi device to reach a receiving plane 103, passes through a surrounding wall 104 and is directly irradiated to an object to be imaged 101, and the like, a plurality of static paths including direct paths 105 and 106, reflected paths 107 and 109, and a diffraction path 108 caused by the object to be imaged reaching a receiving surface are generated.
The distribution of the frequency domain signals on the surface of the detected object can be obtained by carrying out backward propagation through the received CSI signals, and then the signal intensity can be obtained by carrying out two-dimensional inverse Fourier transform, and the three-dimensional view of the detected object can be recovered.
The receiving surface is formed by the receiving antenna in a vertical horizontal plane in the moving process and generally comprises two parameters of an aperture and a spatial frequency, so that the receiving surface is not related to parameters such as bandwidth and/or main frequency of a WIFI signal in the imaging process, and the wavelength, the aperture and the CSI signal of original data of the transmitting end have certain errors, so that the reference antenna is introduced into the antennas of the transmitter and the receiver when the detected object is imaged, and the errors of the CSI signal are eliminated to a certain extent.
According to the expression of the complex amplitude of the CSI signal and the ratio of the receiving antenna to the reference antenna, a linear relation exists, and the linear relation does not influence the image information formed by final imaging, so that fluctuation which is influenced by imaging is eliminated in the calculation process, and the indoor imaging is further refined.
In one implementation of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, by making the phase in the complex amplitude closer to the actual value, the error caused by the external environment can be eliminated as much as possible.
In the implementation manner of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the detected object is a cross-shaped object, the image information formed after the WIFI signal penetrates through the object is shown in fig. 2, and the cross-shaped outline in fig. 2 is the indoor image information formed after the WIFI signal penetrates through the detected object.
In the implementation manner of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the transmitting end of the WIFI signal is installed with an Intel5300 network card whose protocol is 802.11n, and the kernel of the network card can realize that the generated WIFI signal is converted into an original CSI signal (channel state signal) during transmission after being modified.
The invention relates to an indoor imaging method and device based on WiFi channel state information, which are mainly applied to a scene of realizing indoor imaging through a WIFI signal, and the basic idea is as follows: the method is independent of parameters such as bandwidth and main frequency of a WIFI signal, and by introducing a reference antenna and setting aperture and spatial frequency of a receiving surface, difference between original CSI signals and complex amplitude information of the CSI signals after the CSI signals penetrate through a detected object is achieved, and a mode of combining image information such as brightness related to an image and represented by phases and amplitudes of complex amplitudes is achieved, so that final imaging resolution is improved, and imaging information can be enriched.
As shown in fig. 3, a basic flow diagram of an indoor imaging method based on WiFi channel state information in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:
in step 110, extracting a channel state signal, where the channel state signal at least includes complex amplitude information of the WIFI signal on a transmission path;
a channel state signal is extracted from a transmitter of the WIFI signal.
In step 120, the channel state signal is subjected to path decomposition by combining the omnidirectional radiation model of the channel state signal and the transmission path, so as to obtain monochromatic plane wave signals of the channel state signal in different propagation directions;
in step 130, after preprocessing each monochromatic plane wave signal, to distinguish amplitude and phase information of different depths of each transmission path, an imaging process is performed on the detected object according to the amplitude and phase information, so as to obtain an image of the detected object.
Specifically, in a more specific implementation scenario of an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the method includes:
step 1: a signal propagation model is introduced, parameters of the signal propagation model are shown in FIG. 1, in a given indoor environment, the propagation process of a WIFI signal is analyzed, the propagation of the WiFi signal is simplified into a signal propagation part and a signal diffraction part, the signal propagation comprises direct signal propagation, signal transmission propagation, diffraction propagation after an object is measured and the like, for the indoor wall and other diffraction parts and the non-transmittable direct signal part, the influence on imaging is small and can be ignored, the calculation amount is reduced, and the subsequent analysis is facilitated.
In an implementation manner of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes synthesizing the monochromatic plane waves to form an overall signal, and filtering the reflected and external interference from the overall signal, specifically, filtering the diffracted portion of the wall and the direct portion of the signal which is not transmitted, so as to make the filtered monochromatic plane waves easier to calculate.
Step 2: introducing a diffraction imaging algorithm, diffracting the converted CSI signals after the converted CSI signals pass through the surface of the detected object, and dividing the complex amplitude signals into the superposition of monochromatic plane wave signals in different propagation directions by using an angular spectrum diffraction theory;
the diffractive imaging algorithm will be described in detail later.
And step 3: phase and amplitude extraction is carried out on the CSI signals received through diffraction, and phase noise is eliminated;
and 4, step 4: imaging reduction is carried out on the preprocessed CSI signal, and signal amplitude and phase information at any depth in a path can be obtained;
and 5: the resolution of the received image is improved, noise points in the image are reduced, and the received image result information is richer.
In the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the transmission and reception of signals may be implemented by a transmitter and a receiver, that is, an existing Wi-Fi device is provided with a transmitting antenna, the receiver receives signals through a receiving antenna, and the antennas on the devices perform CSI data acquisition.
In the process, an introduced reference antenna is fixed at any point near a receiving end by pulling one antenna out of a receiver, and then CSI data from the transmitting end to the point are collected, the data received by the receiving antenna and the reference antenna are different, and the received data is fixed due to the fixed position of the reference antenna, so that when the CSI data received by the receiving antenna in the moving process changes, parameter information such as amplitude and phase related to images in the CSI data at different positions of the receiving surface can be determined by taking the data of the reference antenna as reference.
The ratio of the CSI data of the receive antenna and the reference antenna is phase subtraction with respect to phase, i.e. a phase linear transformation occurs on the original phase.
In step 1, in the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, mutual influence between signals caused by mimo during propagation of WiFi signals and influence of air medium on receiving effect are not considered, so that the WiFi signals are considered as omnidirectional radiation propagating in free space, and thus, the calculation complexity can be reduced by using scalar diffraction, and only electric field vector needs to be considered.
The situation that the WiFi electric field vector propagates in the free space is simplified as follows:
Figure BDA0002924891510000081
wherein EθElectric vector for propagation of WiFi transmitter signal in space, I0Is the feed current, r is the signal propagation distance, and θ is the angle of signal propagation.
In step 2, since the signals do not all travel along straight lines in the process of arriving at the receiver from the surface of the object to be detected and diffraction occurs, it is necessary to find the diffraction distribution relationship of the CSI signal and to represent the signal at any point in space by using complex amplitude information of other points. Since, in the imaging scene, the observation point (receiving surface) is not in the near-field range from the diffraction aperture (the aperture formed by the diffraction of the detected object, such as a cross-shaped aperture), and the diffraction aperture (the size of the receiving surface) is much larger than the wavelength of the irradiated wave, scalar diffraction theory can be adopted, without considering the coupling relationship between the electric vector and the magnetic vector.
In step 3, due to the complexity of the reason for forming the CSI data, in a real system environment, the measurement result of the CSI is determined by three factors, namely line-of-sight propagation, multipath propagation and equipment error of the signal transmitted to the receiver. Therefore, there is a need to eliminate CSI amplitude offset and CSI phase offset caused by different channels. By carrying out ratio processing on CSI data received by the receiving antenna and the reference antenna, random error interference such as time delay and the like can be eliminated, only linear transformation is introduced to the receiving antenna, and no influence is caused on an imaging result in subsequent diffraction calculation.
In step 4, by using the theory of angular spectrum diffraction, the amplitude and phase of the signal at any point can be digitally reconstructed from the antenna CSI information recorded at the receiving surface, and then the signal amplitude is used to calculate the field intensity of the plane, so as to restore all the information of the plane.
Angle spectrum diffraction theory, kirchhoff diffraction formula:
Figure BDA0002924891510000082
complex amplitude information of a point (x, y, z) at an arbitrary depth is obtained using all points (x, y,0) on the receiving surface.
In step 5, incoherent white light is used to reduce the intensity of noise spots, the intensities under a plurality of subcarriers in the CSI data are averaged, the imaging result is further optimized, and an image including richer holographic imaging information is obtained.
Further, fig. 4 shows a basic flowchart of an indoor imaging method based on WiFi channel state information according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
In step S01, a signal propagation model is introduced, and assuming that mutual influence between signals and influence of air medium on the receiving effect caused by mimo in the WiFi propagation process are not considered, the WiFi signal may be further approximated to the propagation process of the half-wave symmetric array antenna, and since the electric field vector distribution and the magnetic field vector distribution are both scalars, only the electric field vector needs to be considered here. The electric field distribution radiated by the single half-wave antenna in the free space can be simplified as follows:
Figure BDA0002924891510000091
wherein EθElectric vector for propagation of WiFi transmitter signal in space, I0Is the feed current, r is the signal propagation distance, and θ is the angle of signal propagation. The direct process signal propagation of the WiFi transmitter can be solved.
In step S02, a diffraction imaging algorithm is introduced, and after obtaining the signal from the WiFi transmitter to the front surface of the object, it is necessary to study the process of the signal from the front surface of the object to be detected to the back surface of the object to be detected through transmission and the subsequent diffraction of the signal. The diffraction imaging algorithm can be decomposed into the following two steps:
1. a propagation process of signal transmission to the rear surface of the detected object;
2. the signal is diffracted into a propagation process reaching the receiver.
Wherein 1, the signal is transmitted to reach the propagation process of the rear surface of the detected object. For the signal transmission section, assume that the incident signal is Ai(x0,y0) The complex amplitude transmission of the diffraction plane aperture is T (x)0,y0) Then, the signal A of the rear surface of the detected object is detectedt(x0,y0) Comprises the following steps:
At(x0,y0)=Ai(x0,y0)*T(x0,y0)
it can be seen that the phenomenon of bandwidth broadening occurs on the rear surface of the detected object, a monochromatic plane wave different from the WiFi signal propagation direction is introduced, the plane waves are diffracted waves, a series of diffracted waves are generated from the signal on the rear surface of the detected object, and then the diffracted waves are superimposed on the receiving surface to obtain the signal on the receiving surface.
Wherein the propagation process of diffraction to the receiver occurs for the signal. In practical indoor imaging experiments, signals are generally treated as scalar fields, namely transverse and longitudinal axis independent treatment, and the coupling relation of electric vectors and magnetic vectors is not considered, namely scalar diffraction theory is adopted. In this way, as long as the observation point is not within the near field range from the diffraction aperture, and the diffraction aperture is much larger than the wavelength of the illuminating wave, the difference between the result and the vector field is small, which is completely met in the method of the present invention.
In the invention, the observation point is a receiving surface, the diffraction hole refers to the position of the detected object which is diffracted, generally the outline of the detected object, the aperture is the size of the receiving surface, and the spatial frequency refers to the distance between the points of the receiving surface.
The scalar diffraction theory adopted by the invention is kirchhoff diffraction theory, the signal of each point on the receiving surface is regarded as the superposition composition of a plurality of monochromatic plane waves transmitted from the aperture, and the signal of each point is expressed by the following formula:
Figure BDA0002924891510000101
wherein A ist(x, y,0) denotes the rear surface of the object after transmission, fxAnd fyThe distribution represents spatial frequency components of the X-axis and the Y-axis. The formula shows that the data of the receiving surface can be obtained to obtain the signal amplitude and phase information of any depth, and the image of the WIFI signal passing through the detected object can be generated through the formula.
In step S03, phase and amplitude extraction is performed on the diffracted and received CSI signals, the measured data describes not only the channel characteristics in the pass band but also the characteristics of the signal processing circuit in the baseband, and the method of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention can eliminate the influence of these noises through preprocessing.
The general CSI equation is expressed as follows:
Figure BDA0002924891510000102
the left side H of the formulai,j,kIndicating the CSI from the i-th transmitting antenna transmission channel to the j-th receiving antenna under the nth channel, the first item on the right side indicating the multipath channel of the signal from the transmitting end to the receiving end, di,j,nDenotes the distance from the i-th transmitting antenna to the j-th receiving antenna in the n-th channel, fkRepresenting the carrier frequency, c represents the speed of light; the second term of the equation represents Cyclic Shift Diversity (CSD), τ from the i transmit antennasiRepresenting a time delay; the third term and the fourth term of the equation respectively represent Sampling Time Offset (STO) and Sampling Frequency Offset (SFO), and ρ and η respectively represent corresponding Sampling Offset coefficients; the last term of the equation represents the beamforming, qi,j、ξi,jRespectively representing the phase and amplitude of the beam formation.
Therefore, the reason for forming the CSI data is complex, and the phase and the amplitude obtained by measurement have certain transformation. Because only the fifth wave beam forming process in the formula influences the amplitude, and the wave beam forming process is linear processing, finally, amplitude information obtained by different frequency data packets synchronously shows regular change, and the influence on the final imaging effect is not great. For the phase, one antenna on the receiving device can be placed on one side and fixed differently to be used as a reference antenna for eliminating the delay offset.
In step S04, the preprocessed CSI signals are subjected to image restoration. After noise in the environment is eliminated, amplitude and phase information of an object plane at any depth from the point can be obtained from the complex amplitude of the receiving recording surface through the back propagation of kirchhoff diffraction, namely, the intensity information of each point on the receiving surface is obtained, and therefore a hologram of the plane can be constructed.
In step S05, the resolution of the received image is increased and noise points in the image are reduced. In order to further optimize the holographic imaging result, incoherent white light is adopted to reduce the intensity of noise spots, and the intensity under a plurality of subcarriers in the CSI data is subjected to average processing. This process suppresses speckle interference by making use of WiFi radiation that is actually white light.
This approach can recover a white light image from the reconstruction of each frequency, similar to the filtering techniques in digital holography. Compared with other denoising optimization technologies, the method cannot reduce the spatial resolution because the method reserves the phase information of each frequency component during acquisition and only executes a non-coherent averaging algorithm in the process of reconstructing the image.

It is to be appreciated that the method can be performed by any apparatus, device, platform, cluster of devices having computing and processing capabilities.
