Abstract

:In this paper the possibility of utilization of wireless sensor network in application to human sensing problem is examined. With the emphasis on crowd dynamics monitoring, the most critical issues regarding this application are analyzed. Based on limitations and shortcomings of contemporary crowd monitoring approaches, as well as the specificity of the problem, modified positioning algorithm, combined with noisy data preprocessing technique is proposed. Moreover, physical principles of interaction between pedestrians and sensor network are analyzed. An experiment had been conducted to demonstrate the concept of data collection system aimed to obtain relevant information regarding pedestrian movements.
