Smart Wireless Sensing
Perception of human beings has evolved from natural biosensor to powerful sensors and sensor networks. In sensor networks, trillions of devices are interconnected and sense a broad spectrum of contexts for human beings, laying the foundation of Internet of Things (IoT). However, sensor technologies have several limitations relating to deployment cost and usability, which render them unacceptable for practical use. Consequently, the pursuit of convenience in human perception necessitates a wireless, sensorless and contactless sensing paradigm. Recent decades have witnessed rapid developments in wireless sensing technologies, in which sensors detect wireless signals (such as acoustic, light, a...
Wireless Indoor Localization
This book provides a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of wireless indoor localization for ubiquitous applications. The past decade has witnessed a flourishing of WiFi-based indoor localization, which has become one of the most popular localization solutions and has attracted considerable attention from both the academic and industrial communities. Specifically focusing on WiFi fingerprint based localization via crowdsourcing, the book follows a top-down approach and explores the three most important aspects of wireless indoor localization: deployment, maintenance, and service accuracy. After extensively reviewing the state-of-the-art literature, it highlights the latest advances in c...
Wireless and Mobile Networking
There has been phenomenal uptake of wireless and mobile networking technologies in the past decades. Significant developments have taken place during this time making the wireless technology more affordable, effective, and reliable. This book explains the fundamental principles and protocols of key existing and emerging wireless networking technologies. The book begins with a review of the fundamentals of wireless communications.

Light Weight Mobile cloud Computing Environment For Mobile Application.
Resource-intensive Mobile Application (RMA) execution is inhibited by mobile de- vice constrained resources, particularly CPU, RAM, storage, and battery. However, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) as the state-of-the-art mobile computing paradigm is aiming to augment computing capabilities of mobile devices, mitigate their resource-deficiency, and realize efficient execution of RMA. MCC solutions dominantly perform remote execution of resource-intensive RMAs’ components using resources-rich Distant Immobile Cloud (DIC), particularly public cloud. Although DICs feature high availability and elastic scalability, they are characterized by high communication latency and lack of mobility. Therefore, performance gains of mobile augmentation using DIC are mitigated and RMA execution efficiency is remarkably degraded. In this study, we aim to achieve efficient execution of RMAs by proposing a lightweight MCC framework. We verify the problem significance by analyzing time and energy overheads of exploiting DICs for augmenting resource-constraint mobile devices.
Human Behavior Analysis: Sensing and Understanding
Over the last decade, there has been a growing interest in human behavior analysis, motivated by societal needs such as security, natural interfaces, affective computing, and assisted living. However, the accurate and non-invasive detection and recognition of human behavior remain major challenges and the focus of many research efforts. Traditionally, in order to identify human behavior, it is first necessary to continuously collect the readings of physical sensing devices (e.g., camera, GPS, and RFID), which can be worn on human bodies, attached to objects, or deployed in the environment. Afterwards, using recognition algorithms or classification models, the behavior types can be identified...
Smartphone-Based 3D Indoor Localization and Navigation
During the last century, navigation systems have become ubiquitous and guide drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians towards their desired destinations. While operating worldwide, they rely on line-of-sight conditions towards satellites and are thus limited to outdoor areas. However, finding a gate within an airport, a ward within a hospital, or a university's auditorium also represent navigation problems. To provide navigation within such indoor environments, new approaches are required. This thesis examines pedestrian 3D indoor localization and navigation using commodity smartphones: A desirable target platform, always at hand and equipped with a multitude of sensors. The IMU (accelerometer, gy...
