Abstract

Methods, apparatus and systems for counting and recognizing objects or people based on rhythmic motion monitoring are described. A described method comprises: obtaining N1 time series of channel information (TSCI) of a wireless multipath channel that is impacted by a rhythmic motion of an object in a venue, wherein the N1 TSCI is extracted from a wireless signal transmitted from a transmitter to a receiver through the wireless multipath channel; decomposing each of the N1 TSCI into N2 time series of channel information components (TSCIC), wherein a channel information component (CIC) of each of the N2 TSCIC at a time comprises a respective component of a channel information (CI) of the TSCI at the time, wherein N1 and N2 are positive integers; monitoring the rhythmic motion of the object based on at least one of: the N1*N2 TSCIC and the N1 TSCI.
