Wearable sensors for human activity recognition (HAR) have many uses, especially in health, surveillances and man-machine conversation. Technological advancements have enabled non-invasive, contactless sensing methods to detect human activities. However, insufficient training data severely affects the performance of HAR applications. The paper discusses the dataset collection using 3-D cloud point technology and deep learning algorithms to classify the dataset, which will enable a transition from wearable to contactless sensing.
The Terahertz (THz) era promises lightning-fast internet but faces challenges like signal degradation over distances. The paper introduces a joint 3D-beamformer for THz Multi-user Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, leveraging Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces to improve signal strength and coverage. The system uses smart sensing to beam signals directly to devices, promising unparalleled speeds and connection stability, even in crowded spaces. Scalable and adaptable, the proposed architecture is the future of connectivity.
