Abstract
The invention refers to a device for controlling a network () comprising sensing areas (). The device () comprises a) a providing unit () for providing a sensing result of radiofrequency sensing in the sensing areas, b) a determination unit () for determining whether a detection result is potentially unreliable in a spatial region, and c) a defining unit () for defining a new sensing area () corresponding to a part of the spatial region in which the detection result is potentially unreliable. The providing unit () is adapted to provide a new sensing result in the new sensing area, and the detection result is determined for at least the part of the spatial region for which a potentially unreliable detection result is determined based on a sensing result and the new sensing result. Thus, the invention provides a device that allows to improve the sensing reliability of radiofrequency.
