This study presents the "ESP32 Dataset," a dataset of radio frequency (RF) data intended for human activity detection. This dataset comprises 10 activities carried out by 8 volunteers in three different indoor floor plan experiment setups. Line-of-sight (LOS) scenarios are represented by the first two experiment setups, and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) scenarios are simulated in the third experiment setup. For every activity, the volunteers performed 20 trials, hence there were 1,600 recorded trials overall per experiment setup in the sample (8 people × 10 activities × 20 trials) . In order to obtain the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and Channel State Information (CSI) values from the recorded transmissions, the D-Link AX3000 router and ESP32 microcontroller were used as the transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) in the data collection process. This collection is an invaluable resource for academics and practitioners in the field of human activity detection since it offers rich and diversified RF data across a wide range of experiment setups and activities. In contrast to other datasets with different hardware configurations, this dataset records one RSSI value and fifty-two CSI subcarriers using the ESP-CSI Tool RF data capture tool. The number of RSSI and CSI signals, specific to the ESP32 hardware, allows for the exploration of resource-efficient activity detection algorithms, which is crucial for Internet of Things (IoT) applications where low-power and cost-effective solutions are required. This dataset is particularly valuable because it reflects the constraints and capabilities of the widely used ESP32 microcontrollers, making it highly relevant for developing and testing new algorithms tailored to IoT environments. The availability of this dataset enables the development and evaluation of activity detection algorithms and methodologies, enhancing the potential for improved experimental setups in IoT applications.
