Zone-level occupancy counting is a critical technology for smart buildings and can be used
for applications, such as building energy management, surveillance, and public safety.
Existing occupancy counting techniques typically require installation of large number of
occupancy monitoring sensors inside a building and an established wireless network. In this
paper, in order to achieve occupancy counting, we consider the use of Wi-Fi probe requests
that are continuously transmitted from Wi-Fi enabled smart devices for discovering nearby …

Zone-level occupancy counting is a critical technology for smart buildings and can be used
