Abstract

Example implementations may relate to an occupancy sensing system. For example, the occupancy sensing system may collect connection data and traffic data related to electronic devices that connect to the networking device. The occupancy sensing system may determine a number of resident devices and a number of high-traffic devices, based on the connection data or the traffic data. The occupancy sensing system may determine a number of the electronic devices that are coactive within an analysis time window, and may constrain the number of coactive electronic devices to a range from the number of high-traffic devices to the number of resident devices to generate an occupancy value.
