Phascope: Fine-Grained, Fast, Flexible Motion Profiling based on Phase Offset in Acoustic OFDM Signal

摘要

Acoustic Doppler shift estimation is a cost-effective way to implement Human-Computer Interaction applications across existing smart devices such as smart phones and smart spekaers. However, due to the inherent uncertainty principle in the traditional time-frequency analysis, it remains challenging to profile motions accurately and timely. In this paper, phase offset in acoustic OFDM signal is leveraged for developing Phascope, a fine-grained, fast and flexible motion profiling scheme. We evaluate Phascope using simulation and experiment on COTS devices. Sub-millisecond response time is achieved for Phascope in our experiment. Besides, with optimal subcarrier selection and SNR of 30 dB over all subcarriers, Phascope can estimate motion speed of 0.1 m/s with 6.75% root-mean-square error (RMSE) compared to optimized FFT method.
