    Abstract: A circuit for detecting motion of an object in an environment. The circuit comprises a transmission chain, an envelope extraction circuit, and a detector circuit. The transmission chain includes a power amplifier, a sensing circuit, and a single antenna. By the single antenna, a first wireless signal related to a transmission signal is transmitted. The transmission signal is a continuous wave signal. The single antenna can receive a second wireless signal as an incoming signal. The second wireless signal is a reflected first wireless signal from the object. The sensing circuit can obtain a modulation signal by combining the continuous wave signal and the incoming signal. The modulation signal contains a Doppler shift caused by the motion of the object. The envelope extraction circuit can extract a signal envelope from the modulation signal. The detector circuit can determine the motion of the object according to the signal envelope.

    Abstract: An occupancy detection apparatus has a switch, a first antenna, a second antenna, a transmitter, and a motion detection circuit. The occupancy detection apparatus monitors for a first motion in a first region using the first antenna using a first motion detection parameter. When no first motion is sensed by the monitoring using the first antenna, the occupancy detection apparatus monitors for a second motion in a second region using the second antenna using a second motion detection parameter. When no second motion is sensed by monitoring using the second antenna, the occupancy detection apparatus designates a space, which encompasses the second region, as unoccupied. The first region and the second region overlap one another, and the first motion detection parameter is different from the second motion detection parameter.

    Abstract: A motion detecting system includes a microwave motion sensor and an MCU. After detecting a motion with a first configuration, the microwave motion sensor is configured to operate with a second configuration for detecting another motion. The MCU is configured to operate in different modes for performing corresponding actions based on whether the microwave motion sensor can detect motions with different configurations, thereby reducing power consumption. The present motion detecting system can determine the type of motions detected by the microwave motion sensor, thereby reducing the false alarm rate.
