Control device, network, method and computer program for controlling a presence detection using radio frequency sensing in a network

A radio frequency sensing control device arranged for controlling radio frequency sensing in a network comprising at least one network device, wherein at least one of the network devices is adapted to perform radio frequency sensing in a detection area of the network based on the communication signals transmitted within the network, wherein the radio frequency sensing control device comprises:

• a neighboring network information providing unit for providing information on a neighboring network, wherein the neighboring network comprises at least one neighbor network device neighboring at least one network device of the network, and
• a network controlling unit arranged for controlling the at least one network device based on the provided neighboring network information, the at least one network device of the network being enabled by the network controlling unit to detect a signal usable for radio frequency sensing in a detection area extending outside of the detection area of the network and/or for radio frequency sensing in the detection area of the network, wherein the detected signal is transmitted by the at least one neighbor network device;
• wherein the network controlling unit is adapted to control the at least one network device based on the provided information, the at least one network device being enabled by the network controlling unit to interact with at least one of the neighbor network devices, and wherein the network controlling unit is adapted to control the at least one network device to perform the radio frequency sensing based on the interaction with the at least one interacting neighbor network device;
• and
• wherein the network controlling unit is adapted to control the at least one network device to interact with the at least one neighbor network device by sending a trigger message to the at least one interacting neighbor network device and to use the return signal of the at least one interacting neighbor network device for radio frequency sensing.
