Contact-Free Health Monitoring via 6G Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC)

Associate Professor at University of Twente

Enschede, Netherlands

About

Offered expertise / technology
We offer advanced 6G Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) technologies for contact-free, continuous human monitoring using radio signals. Our approach enables passive sensing of vital signs (e.g. respiration), motion, and activity patterns without wearable devices or cameras, preserving privacy while enabling long-term monitoring in real environments such as homes, care facilities, or hospitals.

The technology builds on physical-layer radio sensing, distributed antenna systems, and signal processing/AI methods to extract health-relevant information directly from wireless channel dynamics. Compared to vision-based or wearable solutions, radio sensing is robust to lighting and occlusion, unobtrusive for users, and suitable for continuous operation.

Role in the consortium
We aim to contribute as a technology and methodology partner, leading or co-leading tasks related to:

Contact-free human sensing using 6G/ISAC
Signal processing and AI for health-related feature extraction
System-level validation in realistic indoor environments
Integration with digital health platforms and edge/cloud infrastructures

We do not develop medical devices or provide clinical validation ourselves, but we enable the sensing backbone that such solutions require.

Partners we are looking for
We are seeking collaboration with:

Clinical or medical partners (e.g. hospitals, rehabilitation centers, geriatric care) for use-case definition and validation
Health-tech SMEs or industry working on remote monitoring, digital therapeutics, or ambient assisted living
AI/data partners focusing on health analytics, decision support, or digital twins
Consortia coordinators preparing proposals under Horizon Europe Cluster 1 (Health) calls related to remote monitoring, ageing, chronic disease management, or prevention
