Device and method for detecting localization, monitoring, and identification of living organisms in structures

A method for detecting the presence of living organisms through a structure, wall or partition, comprising the steps of:

• providing a plurality of transceivers for generating interrogating signals and receiving reflected signals through the structure, wall or partition being tested;
• providing each of the transceivers with an antenna, each antenna being adapted to transmit the interrogating signals generated by its corresponding transceiver and to receive the reflected signals to be received by its the corresponding transceiver;
• sequentially activating and sequentially deactivating the plurality of transceivers such that the transceivers are activated and deactivated in succession and such that interrogating signals generated by corresponding one of the transceivers are reflected and then received by the corresponding one of the transceivers and not by any of the other of the transceivers;
• and,
• processing the reflected signals received by the plurality of transceivers in order to identify a positive signal which is indicative of the possible presence of a living organism through the structure, wall or partition being tested.

A device for detecting the presence of living organisms through a structure, wall or partition comprising:

• a plurality of transceivers, each of the plurality of transceivers generating interrogating signals and receiving reflected signals from through a structure, wall or partition being tested for the presence of living organisms;
• a plurality of antennas, each of the plurality of antennas being connected to a corresponding one of the transceivers, each of the plurality of antennas transmitting the interrogating signals generated by its the corresponding one of the transceivers, and each of the plurality of antennas receiving the reflected signals to be received by its the corresponding one of the transceivers;
• and
• processing means for processing the reflected signals received by each of the plurality of transceivers so as to provide output signals that indicate the presence or absence of living organisms through the structure, wall or partition being tested.

• a plurality of transceivers, each of the plurality of transceivers generating interrogating signals and receiving reflected signals from living organisms through a structure, wall, or partition;
• processing means for processing the reflected signals received by each of the plurality of transceivers so as to provide output signals that indicate the presence or absence of living organisms through the structure, wall or partition being tested;
• and,
• switching means, electrically connected through wires or wirelessly to the plurality of transceivers and to the processing means, for sequentially activating and deactivating the plurality of transceivers such that interrogating signals generated by a corresponding one of the transceivers are reflected and then received by the corresponding one of the transceivers and not by any of the other of the transceivers.
