The human footsteps recognition (walk-recognition) is discussed. The pitch frequency related with walking pace, and the first peak frequency of a footstep, are characterized by frequency analysis, and used as a feature vector for the recognition. A simple recognition method comparing with the Euclidean distance are used. The recognition rate is approximately 83%, and then the feasibility of walk-recognition is confirmed.
