A wireless transceiver including: at least one antenna; a plurality of transmit and receive path components; an array of microphones; an acoustic spatial diagnostic circuit and a rule execution circuit. The plurality of components form transmit and receive paths coupled to the at least one antenna. The acoustic spatial diagnostic circuit couples to the array of microphones to successively sample an acoustic environment surrounding the wireless transceiver and to determine from each set of acoustic samples an acoustic spatial map of at least humans within the surrounding environment. The rule execution circuit couples to the spatial diagnostic circuit to execute an action proscribed by a selected rule when a related portion of the acoustic spatial map sampled by the spatial diagnostic circuit exhibits a correlation above a threshold amount with a spatial context condition associated with the selected rule.
