Wi-freshness: research on CSI-based pork freshness detecting system by Chao NIU, Weidong YANG, Pengming HU, Xiangshang GAO, Erbo SHEN

“…Effective and rapid detection of pork freshness is important for pork quality.However, traditional sensory evaluation methods are too subjective, physical and chemical analysis methods are time-consuming and destructive.Recently, radio frequency is widely used in the field of location, material identification and human body monitoring, while, the meat freshness detection is ignored.A real-time, non-destructive and low-cost system for pork freshness detecting based on channel state information (CSI) was proposed.It is a new application of internet of things in the field of fresh agricultural products based on ubiquitous network (commercial Wi-Fi).The proposed Wi-freshness consists of four modules: CSI data sensing, data pre-processing, detection modelling and freshness detection.Considering the need for Wi-freshness data characteristic value processing is not much, and high demand for real-time prediction characteristics, a detection model based broad learning system (BLS) was proposed.Experiment shows that Wi-freshness system can achieve more than 93% detection accuracy.…”
