Abstract

This disclosure describes systems and methods for detecting motion based on channel correlation in wireless communication signals. A receiver at a first wireless communication device is capable of wirelessly communicating with a second wireless communication device. The first wireless communication device is configured to receive from the second wireless communication device via two or more subcarriers a first packet and a channel correlation for the first packet across the two or more subcarriers. Control circuitry is configured to estimate a channel energy difference for the receiver based on the channel correlation for the first packet. A motion detection decision is then made based on the estimated channel energy difference.
