用球面表示学习提升Wi-Fi手势识别的跨用户泛化能力

Motivated by the IEEE 802.11bf effort to standardize advanced WLAN sensing, interest in Wi-Fi Channel State Information (CSI) for passive, device-free, and privacy-preserving activity and gesture recognition has grown rapidly. Recent studies have shown that Doppler velocity projections extracted from CSI, which directly reflect human-motion velocity, enable more robust human activity recognition (HAR) and stronger generalization across users and unseen conditions. Nevertheless, reliable generalization under real-world variability remains a major challenge, hindering the adoption of Wi-Fi sensing in real-world applications. To address this challenge, we introduce Doppler Radiance Fields (DoRF), bringing the concept of neural radiance fields (NeRF) from computer vision into Wi-Fi sensing. DoRF models Doppler velocity projections extracted from Wi-Fi CSI as sparse and diverse virtual-camera views of human motion. It then infers a latent 3D motion sequence whose projections along learned effective Doppler directions explain the CSI-derived Doppler observations. The recovered motion is subsequently projected onto an equiangular grid of directions on the unit sphere, producing a spherical representation of the underlying motion. Since DoRF naturally defines the Doppler representation on spheres, we further introduce DoRF++, a spherical-learning design that applies spherical Transformers for activity classification. Experiments on our collected hand-gesture dataset show that DoRF++ significantly outperforms state-of-the-art Wi-Fi-based HAR methods in cross-user generalization accuracy, especially for difficult gestures in settings with a single multi-antenna receiver access point (AP).
