Claim 10:
11. A method implemented by a management device for a premises security system that is configured to monitor a premises, the management device comprising an ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver configured with a coverage area, the method comprising:
detecting a UWB device within the coverage area;
in response to the UWB device being detected within the coverage area:
determining a first distance of the UWB device from the management device based on UWB signaling received by the UWB transceiver;
determining a first successive movement vector of the UWB device based on the UWB signaling, the first successive movement vector being associated with the first distance;
determining a second distance of the UWB device from the management device based on the UWB signaling;
determining a second successive movement vector of the UWB device based on the UWB signaling, the second successive movement vector being associated with the second distance;
performing a first comparison between the first distance and the first successive movement vector with a first predefined distance and a first predefined successive movement vector in a first direction; and
performing a second comparison between the second distance and the second successive movement vector with a second predefined distance and a second predefined successive movement vector in a second direction that is different from the first direction; and

initiating a premises security system action based on the first comparison and the second comparison.
