“…Putchana et al [15] proposed a simple wireless intelligent system prototype for fall detection and movement classification for real‐time monitoring of the elderly. In [16], the authors have designed and implemented a wireless EMG, which can acquire the signal from six muscles in the back. Uribe‐Quevedo et al [17] implemented a tool for detecting posture variation of seated person in front of a computer with the goal of monitoring when it deviated from its correct position.…”

the problem of posture detection is of considerable significance for assisted living (AL). In most cases, radio channel models for WBANs are fixed when a specific body posture is considered. To the best of our knowledge, little work has been done on the reverse body posture information extraction using WBAN radio channel characteristics. This paper aims to classify human postures from on-body narrowband wireless channel information. It is demonstrated that by applying the random forest (RF) classification technique, the action of the human body can be detected. The classification error is perfectly acceptable for RF algorithm. Two propagation environments were compared and the results indicate that the classification error is less in the anechoic chamber (21.39%). In summary, this paper provides a novel approach to detect human body postures by using body-centric wireless channel information, and will be beneficial for AL.
