N2 - Remote health monitoring is becoming more and more desirable as the healthcare industry transitions from hospital-focused to home-focused care, especially with an aging population. The reliability of wireless sensors and communication systems are gaining more trust on monitoring patients’ daily activities in their homes. However, for such systems to be effective, localizing the activities performed in an indoor environment is essential, especially for making decisions during critical moments such as walking or falling, which can lead to mortality and immobility. This chapter explores home-centric activity localization systems (ALSs), covering enabling technologies, challenges, and possible future directions. Additionally, the chapter provides an extensive overview of indoor localization systems that rely on channel state information and analyzes the approaches, techniques, and technologies used for indoor localization. Finally, the chapter compares the results and performance of existing ALSs, followed by a discussion on the technological implementation, open challenges, possible solutions, and future directions.
