SYSTEMS AND METHODS USING MULTIPLE MODALITIES FOR OCCUPANCY SENSING

A system and method for determining a number of occupants at a location using multiple modalities. The method includes gathering a first data set with a motion sensor of the lighting system. A seconddata set is gathered with a transceiver of an RF subsystem. First and second estimates are calculated from the second data set using first and second algorithms. The first estimate and the second estimate are fused to create a fused occupant estimate. The first algorithm, the second algorithm, or both the first algorithm and the second algorithm are trained by inputting the second occupant estimate and/or the second set of data to recalibrate parameters of the first algorithm and/or inputting the first occupant estimate and/or the first set of data to recalibrate parameters during training ofthe second algorithm. A building control system can operated in response to the fused occupant estimate. 一种用于使用多种模态来确定一个位置处的占用者数量的系统和方法。该方法包括利用照明系统的运动传感器来收集第一数据集。利用RF子系统的收发器来收集第二数据集。使用第一和第二算法来从第二数据集计算第一和第二估计。将第一估计和第二估计融合以创建经融合
