1. A method for detecting a presence of a human comprising:
- providing a first transceiver disposed at a first location within a detection area;
providing a second transceiver disposed at a second location within said detection area;
a computer server communicably coupled to said first transceiver;
said first transceiver receiving a first set of wireless signals from said second transceiver when no human is within said detection area;
said computer server receiving a first set of signal data from said first transceiver, said first set of signal data comprising data about properties of said first set of wireless signals;
said computer server creating a baseline signal profile for wireless communications from said second transceiver to said first transceiver, said baseline signal profile being based at least in part on said properties of said first set of wireless signals in said first set of signal data when no human is present in said detection area;
said first transceiver receiving a second set of wireless signals from said second transceiver;
said computer server receiving a second set of signal data from said first transceiver, said second set of signal data comprising data about properties of said second set of wireless signals; and
said computer server determining if a human is present within said detection area, said determination based at least in part on a comparison of said properties of said second set of wireless signals in said second set of wireless signal data to said baseline signal profile.

20. A method for detecting a presence of a human comprising:
-
providing a first transceiver disposed at a first location within a detection area; providing a second transceiver disposed at a second location within said detection area; providing a computer server communicably coupled to said first transceiver; providing a first external system operatively coupled to said computer server; providing a second external system operatively coupled to said computer server; said computer server receiving from said first transceiver a set of baseline signal data comprising data about signal properties of a first set of wireless signals received by said first transceiver from said second transceiver when no human is present in said detection area; said computer server creating a baseline signal profile for wireless communications from said second transceiver to said first transceiver, said baseline signal profile being based at least in part on said signal properties of said first set of wireless signals in said set of baseline signal data when no human is present in said detection area; said computer server receiving from said first transceiver a first set of sample signal data comprising data about signal properties of a second set of wireless signals received by said first transceiver from said second transceiver when a human is present in said detection area; said computer server creating a first sample signal profile for wireless communications from said second transceiver to said first transceiver said first sample signal profile being based at least in part on said signal properties of said second set of wireless signals in said first sample signal data when a human is present in said detection area; said computer server receiving from said first transceiver a second set of sample signal data comprising data about signal properties of a third set of wireless signals received by said first transceiver from said second transceiver when a human is present in said detection area; said computer server creating a second sample signal profile for wireless communications from said second transceiver to said first transceiver said second sample signal profile being based at least in part on said signal properties of said third set of wireless signals in said second set of sample signal data when a human is present in said detection area; said computer server receiving from said first transceiver a third set of sample signal data comprising data about signal properties of a fourth set of wireless signals received by said first transceiver from said second transceiver when a human is present in said detection area; said computer server determining to operate said first external system based upon said computer server determining that said data about signal properties of said fourth set of wireless signals in said third set of sample signal data corresponds to said first sample signal profile; said computer server determining not to operate said second external system based upon said computer server determining that said data about signal properties of said fourth set of wireless signals in said third set of sample signal data does not correspond to said second sample signal profile. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
