Abstract
Techniques for performing high-precision presence detection by establishing and monitoring peer-to-peer communication links between user devices residing in a same physical environment. A user device that resides in the environment may establish communication links with multiple other user devices residing in the environment. The user device may monitor the channel properties for those communication links to detect fluctuations in the channel properties caused by a user moving through a signal of the communication links. In examples where the user device detects fluctuations in channel properties for multiple communication links, the user device may determine that the user had moved though signals of the communication links. The user device may determine that, because the user moved through signals of multiple communication links, the user may be in close proximity to the user device, such as in the same room. Thus, the user device monitors multiple communication links to perform presence-detection techniques.
