Project Title

Development of Through Wall Intrusion Detection System

Project Area of Specialization Augmented and Virtual RealityProject Summary

The aim of this project is to scan through the wall for any intrusion using Wi-Fi transmitter. The signals will be recieved thorugh recievers and signal processing would be done so as to detect movement and display it on a GUI. Thus strong understanding of signal processing and techniques for developing a GUI are mandatory for this project.

Project Objectives

The following tasks will be performed in this project.

  1. Transmission of Wi-Fi signals with the help of a tranmitting antenna.
  2. Receiving of signals using receiver antenna.
  3. Signal processing.
  4. Displaying the results on a GUI.
Project Implementation Method

The project aims to develop a device/system which will be implemented as follows:

  1. TP-Link TL-WR1043ND wireless router will be used to transmit Wi-Fi signals through the wall.
  2. Required algorithm will be developed using CSI parameters of the received signals.
  3. Recieved signals will be processed on Intel NUC Mini PC.
  4. Results will be displayed using a GUI on a screen.

The operating system used in this projects will be Linux. 

Benefits of the Project

In the 1930s, U.S. Navy researchers stumbled upon the concept of radar when they noticed that a plane flying past a radio tower reflected radio waves. This project aims to apply the same concept to detect any intrusion/movement through the wall. This project will be very beneficial in certain security applications such as Hostage situation, Urban Warfare, Intrusion Detection in unauthorized areas etc.
