A method for detecting vulnerable road users (VRUs) using wireless signals includes receiving, by a wireless receiver, wireless signals from mobile devices and determining received signal strength indication (RSSI) levels of the wireless signals. The wireless signals and the RSSI levels of the wireless signals received by the wireless receiver are analyzed so as to determine at least one location of the VRUs. A notification is issued to the vehicle or a driver of the vehicle based on the at least one determined location of the VRUs.

System and method for vulnerable road user detection using wireless signals

A method performs wireless localization data acquisition and calibration using a visual 3D model. The method includes: receiving image data and transmitter measurement data from a device; localizing the image data in the visual 3D model to determine a device location in a physical space; and using the device location and the transmitter measurement data to perform at least one of: determining transmitter fingerprint localization data and storing the transmitter fingerprint localization data in a fingerprint database; or calibrating a radio frequency (RF) propagation model for proximity estimation.
