Abstract
Systems and methods for Wi-Fi sensing are provided. A method for Wi-Fi sensing carried out by a sensing algorithm manager including at least one processor configured to execute instructions. A sensing measurement based on a sensing transmission transmitted by a sensing transmitter and received by a sensing receiver is obtained. Then, a device context of a sensing pair associated with the sensing transmission is determined. The sensing pair includes the sensing transmitter and the sensing receiver. The sensing measurement is associated with the device context. A sensing algorithm is executed according to the sensing measurement and the device context to generate a sensing result.
