Abstract

WiFi-enabled devices broadcast a vast amount of data without being associated to any access points. To study and analyze this data, a generic passive WiFi tracking system called Probr was developed. Probr manages various types of WiFi capturing devices, collects captured WiFi traces, processes collected WiFi traces, and visualizes WiFi activities via its Web interface. Probr supports several on-line analysis use cases and is extensible with respect to custom storage solutions to fit further use cases. Thus, Probr is the first system of that kind known, enabling full device administration and provided completely as Open Source. A case study conducted demonstrates the capabilities of Probr for use cases such as room utilization estimation, indoor device localization, tracking a person's presence between multiple Probr-equipped locations, and analysis of device vendor preferences.

Probr -一种通用的无源WiFi跟踪系统
支持wifi的设备无需与任何接入点相关联即可广播大量数据。为了研究和分析这些数据,开发了一种称为Probr的通用被动WiFi跟踪系统。Probr管理各种WiFi捕获设备,收集捕获的WiFi轨迹,处理收集到的WiFi轨迹,并通过其Web界面可视化WiFi活动。Probr支持几个在线分析用例,并且可以根据自定义存储解决方案进行扩展,以适应进一步的用例。因此,Probr是已知的第一个此类系统,它支持完整的设备管理,并完全作为开源提供。一个案例研究演示了Probr在一些用例中的功能,比如房间利用率估计、室内设备定位、在多个配备了Probr的位置之间跟踪一个人的存在,以及分析设备供应商的偏好。
