# Wi6CSI Dataset Overview **Wi6CSI** is a comprehensive Wi-Fi sensing dataset collected in the **6GHz** band. It offers a rich, high-resolution resource for researchers ## Key Features - **Scenarios Covered:** - **Single User:** Data captured with one user performing various activities. - **Multi User:** Data where multiple users are present simultaneously. - **People Counting:** Scenarios designed to count individuals within a specific area. - **Collection Locations:** Data has been collected across **three distinct locations**, ensuring diverse environmental conditions and variations in the wireless channel. - **Data Volume and Resolution:** - The dataset holds approximately **1.5TB** of data. - Each Wi-Fi packet includes **8100 subcarriers**, offering a level of detail that supports high-resolution sensing and analysis. - **Wi-Fi Band:** - Utilizes the **6GHz** frequency band, providing enhanced granularity and improved sensing accuracy compared to lower frequency bands. # Wi6CSI Sample Dataset This repository contains a sample subset of the complete Wi6CSI dataset containing just a few single user activities. The sample is provided to demonstrate the dataset structure and typical processing steps for research in Wi-Fi Channel State Information (CSI) analysis. If you are interested in obtaining access to the complete Wi6CSI dataset or have any questions, please contact: [e0426004@u.nus.edu](mailto:e0426004@u.nus.edu) ## Dataset Contents - **.mp4 files:** These files are Pose3D videos that capture 3D representations of subjects during data collection. They can be used for visual analysis, activity recognition, or correlating motion with CSI data. - **.mat files:** These MATLAB files contain the Wi-Fi CSI values. The numerical data stored in these files represent the channel state information of the wireless signal, useful for signal processing or machine learning applications. - **.csi files:** These files hold raw Wi-Fi CSI data. They are not immediately usable and must be parsed using the [picoscenes toolbox](https://ps.zpj.io/matlab.html) to extract the relevant features for analysis. ## How to View and Process Each File Type ### 1. `.mp4` Files - **Description:** These files contain Pose3D videos. - **How to View:** Open them in any standard media player (e.g., VLC, Windows Media Player, QuickTime) by double-clicking the file or dragging it into the player window. ### 2. `.csi` Files - **Description:** These files store raw Wi-Fi CSI data. - **How to Open/Parse:** - **Step 1:** Install the PicoScenes MATLAB Toolbox. - **Step 2:** Open MATLAB and navigate to the directory containing the `.csi` file. - **Step 3:** Load or parse the file using the toolbox’s function. Found under the PicoScenes-MATLAB-Toolbox-Core folder - **Step 4:** The raw CSI values can then be accessed within the returned data structure for further analysis. ### 3. `.mat` Files - **Description:** These files contain Wi-Fi CSI values in MATLAB’s native format. - **How to View:** - **Option 1:** In MATLAB, double-click the `.mat` file in the Current Folder panel. - **Option 2:** Programmatically load the file by running. For example: ```matlab load('A12_P5_L3_T1.mat'); ``` After loading, variables such as `data` (often containing a field like `data.CSI.CSI`) will appear in your MATLAB workspace for exploration. The data.CSI.CSI will then contain all raw complex CSI values. ## Single User Activity Recognition Structure | Activity | |---------------------------------| | Empty Room (A1) | | Standing Still (A2) | | Sitting Still (A3) | | Lying Down Still (A4) | | Clap (A5) | | Wave (A6) | | Arm Circles (A7) | | Bicep Curls (A10) | | Toe Touches (A8) | | Squats (A9) | | Walk (Perpendicular) (A11) | | Walk (Parallel) (A12) | | Jump (A13) | | Location | |---------------------------------| | Room (L1) | | Extended Room (L2) | | Meeting Room (L3) | | Trial Number | |---------------------------------| | Trial 1 (T1) | | Trial 2 (T2) | | Trial 3 (T3) | | Trial 4 (T4) | | Trial 5 (T5) | | Participant Number | |---------------------------------| | Participant 1 (P1) | | Participant 2 (P2) | | Participant 3 (P3) | | Participant 4 (P4) | | Participant 5 (P5) |
