An n-phonic energy detection (“NED”) system includes two antenna structures separated by a distance and configured to be placed adjacent one of a pair of human ears. Each of the two antenna structures includes antenna elements. The NED system also includes speakers configured to be placed adjacent one of the pair of human ears. The NED system also includes radio frequency (“RF”) detectors configured to detect RF energy emitted from a source and received by the two antenna structures, and an amplifier that amplifies signals from the RF detectors and outputs the amplified signals to a computer and to the speakers corresponding to the antenna structure to be placed adjacent the same one of the pair of human ears.

Techniques for presence-detection devices to detect movement of a person in an environment by emitting ultrasonic signals using a loudspeaker that is concurrently outputting audible sound. To detect movement by the person, the devices characterize the change in the frequency, or the Doppler shift, of the reflections of the ultrasonic signals off the person caused by the movement of the person. However, when a loudspeaker plays audible sound while emitting the ultrasonic signal, audio signals generated by microphones of the devices include distortions caused by the loudspeaker. These distortions can be interpreted by the presence-detection devices as indicating movement of a person when there is no movement, or as indicating lack of movement when a user is moving. The techniques include processing audio signals to remove distortions to more accurately identify changes in the frequency of the reflections of the ultrasonic signals caused by the movement of the person.
