Claim 0:
1. 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;
processing circuitry in communication with the UWB transceiver, the processing circuitry configured to:
detect a UWB device within the coverage area;
in response to the UWB device being detected within the coverage area:
determine a first distance of the UWB device from the management device based on UWB signaling received by the UWB transceiver;
determine 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;
determine a second distance of the UWB device from the management device based on the UWB signaling;
determine 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;
perform 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
perform 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

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