    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and/or measuring displacement of at least one sensor in system comprising at least two sensors, each sensor comprising a signal generator wherein the signal produced by the generator is used as a transmitted signal and as a local oscillator for down converting signals received from other sensors to produce an IF (intermediate frequency) signal; a data acquisition subsystem configured to generate data samples comprising phase information of the plurality of IF signals and record said data samples; at least one processor, said at least one processor is configured to: receive the recorded data samples from each sensor of said at least two sensors; jointly process the recorded data samples from each sensor of said at least two sensors to extract a phase value which depends on the distance between the at least two sensors; measure over time said phase value to yield a phase change value; identify displacement of at least one sensor of the at least two sensors based on the extracted phase change value.
