Abstract

Systems and methods for detecting a body part like a human hand near a base station or a user equipment are disclosed. A plurality of radar pulses is transmitted from a communication device in succession and the reflected plurality of radar pulses is received sampled and adaptively processed to remove transmit and receive antenna mutual coupling and clutter from stationary objects near the body part. In one aspect the adaptive processing is accomplished with a single tap adaptive filter. The processed signal may be used to determine if there is a human body part near the communication device allowing the device to determine whether it is safe for the device to transmit a millimeter wave communication signal.
