A method for sensing sneezing based on a wireless signal includes obtaining a wireless signal, where the wireless signal propagates in space including a first object. Doppler estimation is performed on the wireless signal, to obtain Doppler information of the wireless signal. The Doppler information of the wireless signal may be used for indicating impact of the first object on a frequency of the wireless signal. Whether the first object is sneeze droplets is determined based on the Doppler information of the wireless signal.
