A traffic monitoring system (TMS) is an integral part of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for traffic analysis and planning. This paper addresses the endemic cost issue of deploying a large number of TMSs to cover huge miles of two-lane rural highways (119,247 miles in U.S.). A low-cost and portable TMS called DeepWiTraffic based on COTs WiFi devices and deep learning is proposed. DeepWiTraffic enables accurate vehicle detection and classification by exploiting the unique WiFi Channel State Information (CSI) of passing vehicles. Spatial and temporal correlations of preprocessed CSI amplitude and phase data are identified and analyzed using deep learning to classify vehicles into five different types: motorcycle, passenger vehicle, SUV, pickup truck, and large truck. A large amount of CSI data of passing vehicles and the corresponding ground truth video data are collected for about 120 hours to validate the effectiveness of DeepWiTraffic. The results show that the average detection accuracy of 99.4 accuracy of 91.1 Truck: 83.3 about 1,000.
