Objective
Global population aging is driving healthcare costs to unsustainable levels, which underscores the urgent need for scalable and affordable digital health monitoring. Within this paradigm, WiFi sensing stands out for accessible WiFi infrastructure and non-intrusive nature. However, current WiFi sensing methods are fundamentally limited by conflicts between sensing and communication traffic, reliance on raw channel state information (CSI), and fragility under non-stationary environmental dynamics.
This project, ISACare, will propose novel integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) solutions for sustainable and robust digital health monitoring based on the first sensing-native WiFi standard IEEE 802.11bf (finalized in May 2025). Specifically, ISACare will (i) reduce sensing overhead by developing a CSI extrapolation and compressed CSI feedback framework compatible with IEEE 802.11bf (ii) mitigate non-stationary environmental dynamics through multi-AP cooperative sensing and contrastive learning, and (iii) enhance environmental robustness by constructing hybrid datasets that combine synthetic ray-tracing samples with empirical measurements. Together, these innovations will enable sustainable and robust monitoring of physiological parameters such as respiration and heartbeat in real-world healthcare scenarios.
The project aims at a long-term impact to benefit millions of elderly citizens and patients worldwide and save billions of euros in annual savings across the EU by reducing avoidable hospitalizations and unnecessary clinical visits as well as replacing battery-based wireless wearable/implantable sensors for health monitoring.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
