Embracing Diffraction: A Paradigm Shift in Wireless Sensing and Communication
Anurag Pallaprolu, Winston Hurst, Yasamin Mostofi
Wireless signals are integral to modern society, enabling both communication and increasingly, environmental sensing. While various propagation models exist, ranging from empirical…
mmFlux: Crowd Flow Analytics with Commodity mmWave MIMO Radar
Anurag Pallaprolu, Winston Hurst, Yasamin Mostofi
In this paper, we present mmFlux: a novel framework for extracting underlying crowd motion patterns and inferring crowd semantics using mmWave radar. First, our proposed signal pro…
Crowd Size Estimation for Non-Uniform Spatial Distributions with mmWave Radar
Anurag Pallaprolu, Aaditya Prakash Kattekola, Winston Hurst +3
In this paper, we present a novel methodology for crowd size estimation using monostatic mmWave radar. Our aim is to accurately count large crowds that follow a non-uniform spatial…
Uncrewed Vehicles in 6G Networks: A Unifying Treatment of Problems, Formulations, and Tools
Winston Hurst, Spilios Evmorfos, Athina Petropulu +1
Uncrewed Vehicles (UVs) functioning as autonomous agents are anticipated to play a crucial role in the 6th Generation of wireless networks. Their seamless integration, cost-effecti…
Emergent Cooperation for Energy-efficient Connectivity via Wireless Power Transfer
Winston Hurst, Anurag Pallaprolu, Yasamin Mostofi
This paper addresses the challenge of incentivizing energy-constrained, non-cooperative user equipment (UE) to serve as cooperative relays. We consider a source UE with a non-line-…
Relay Incentive Mechanisms Using Wireless Power Transfer in Non-Cooperative Networks
Winston Hurst, Yasamin Mostofi
This paper studies the use of a multi-attribute auction in a communication system to bring about efficient relaying in a non-cooperative setting. We consider a system where a sourc…
