Abstract
A modular, radio frequency (“RF”) system includes one or more directional antennas and is configured with both hardware and software components to enable the RF system to monitor (e.g., detect or track signals or objects) and/or interact with (e.g., track signals or objects, or transmit signals) objects in particular directions. The RF system includes one or more machine learning models to determine, based on received signals, one or more signals to transmit.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising, by a first RF system comprising one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:
- receiving, via one or more first antennas, a first set of RF signals associated with an object;
- based at least in part on an identification of a type of object associated with the first set of RF signals, causing transmission of a second set of RF signals different from the first set of RF signals towards a first location associated with the object;
- and
- based on a determination that the object is moving away from the first location and towards a second location;
- reducing power output of the transmission of the second set of RF signals by the one or more first antennas;
- and
- transmitting, to one or more second antennas, a data packet associated with the second set of RF signals.

- and
- based on a determination that the object is moving away from the first location and towards a second location, transmitting, to one or more second antennas, a data packet that includes instructions, that when executed, cause the one or more second antennas to increase power output of a transmission of the second set of RF signals, wherein the power output is increased to a threshold power level that balances power usage efficiency with transmission effectiveness.
