Previous work demonstrates the use of harmonic radars to accurately detect the presence of even ‘simple’ electronic devices, like a smart lightbulb, in a home setting.
In this paper, we work to understand the range of a harmonic radar’s ability to discover electronic devices. With a two-antenna setup, we observed a range of at least 2 meters for detecting a laptop computer. We envision a harmonic radar system used in the home to detect the presence of all electronic devices, even those that do not transmit or are powered off.
