This paper introduces a novel framework, i.e., RFPose-OT, to enable the 3D human pose estimation from Radio Frequency (RF) signals. Different from existing methods that predict human poses from RF signals on the signal level directly, we consider the structure difference between the RF signals and the human poses, propose to transform the RF signals to the pose domain on the feature level based on Optimal Transport (OT) theory, and generate human poses from the transformed features. To evaluate RFPose-OT, we build a radio system and a multi-view camera system to acquire the RF signal data and the ground-truth human poses. The experimental results in basic indoor environment, occlusion indoor environment, and outdoor environment, all demonstrate that RFPose-OT can predict 3D human poses with higher precision than the state-of-the-art methods.
