Scalable RF Simulation in Generative 4D Worlds

Radio Frequency (RF) sensing has emerged as a powerful, privacy-preserving alternative to vision-based methods for various perception tasks. However, building high-quality RF datasets in dynamic and diverse environments remains a major challenge. To address this, we introduce WaveVerse, a prompt-based, scalable framework that simulates realistic RF signals from generated indoor scenes with human motions guided by spatial paths, enabling diverse and feasible behaviors without manual trajectory design. WaveVerse features a language-guided 4D world generator and a physics-based signal simulator that enables realistic simulation of RF signals in diverse environments. It employs a phase-coherent ray tracer that preserves both spatial and temporal phase consistency. The simulated signals show high fidelity on phase-sensitive benchmarks, and closely align with both real-world collected measurements and simulations from a proprietary electromagnetic solver. When used for data augmentation, WaveVerse consistently improves performance in downstream tasks like RF imaging and human activity recognition, with gains that grow with the amount of simulated data and surpass existing methods.
