Abstract

Systems and methods can support identifying wireless devices from radio frequency sensors positioned within an electromagnetic environment where one or more user equipment devices are serviced by a base station. The radio frequency sensors can receive wireless uplink signals transmitted from the user equipment devices to the base station. Data samples can be generated from the received signals. Frequency domain samples can be computed from the data samples. The data samples can be partitioned in time and frequency to generate spectrum tiles. The spectrum tiles can be statistically aggregated in a frequency domain to reduce the quantity of data samples. A clustering algorithm may be applied to the statistically aggregated spectrum tiles. Unique instances of the user equipment devices may be identified from the clustered spectrum tiles to enumerate the instances of the user equipment devices.
