Abstract

Device-free localization (DFL) has emerged as a transformative technology for tracking objects and individuals without requiring them to carry electronic devices. This paper reviews two pivotal techniques of DFL: Link Quality Measurement and Link Scattering techniques. Link Quality Measurement focuses on evaluating the quality of wireless links through metrics like Received-Signal-Strength and Channel-State-Information, offering simplicity and reliability. Meanwhile, Link Scattering harnesses signal reflections and diffractions caused by environmental obstacles to estimate device-free target positions. This review provides insights of Link Quality Measurement, Link Scattering methods and highlighting DFL metrics. By shedding light on these critical aspects, it offers valuable insights into the current state of DFL technology and its potential in diverse domains, ranging from smart environments to security systems.
