An indoor layout sensing and localization system in 60GHz millimeter wave (mmWave) band, named mmReality, is elaborated in this paper. The mmReality system consists of one transmitter and one mobile receiver, each with a phased array and a single radio frequency (RF) chain. To reconstruct the room layout, the pilot signal is delivered from the transmitter to the receiver via different pairs of transmission and receiving beams, so that the signals at all antenna elements can be resolved. Then, the spatial smoothing and two-dimensional multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm is applied to detect the angle-of-arrival (AoAs) and angle-of-departure (AoDs) of the rays from the transmitter to the receiver. Moreover, the technique of multi-carrier ranging is adopted to measure the distance of each propagation path. Synthesizing the above geometrical parameters, the location of receiver relative to the transmitter can be pinpointed, both line-of-sight (LoS) and non-line-of-sight (NLoS) paths can also be determined. Therefore, the room layout can be reconstructed by moving the receiver and repeating the above measurement in different locations of the room. At the end, we show that the reconstructed room layout can be utilized to locate a mobile device according to its AoA spectrum, even with single access point.
