Abstract
An occupancy tracking device configured to establish a network connection with an access point and to capture wireless signal distortion information for the network connection. The device is further configured to generate statistical metadata for the wireless signal distortion information. The device is further configured to input the wireless signal distortion information and the statistical metadata for the wireless signal distortion information into a machine learning model. The machine learning model is configured to determine a predicted occupancy level based on the wireless signal distortion information and the statistical metadata for the wireless signal distortion information. The predicted occupancy level indicates a number of people that are present within with the space. The device is further configured to obtain the predicted occupancy level from the machine learning model and to control a Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system based on the predicted occupancy level.
