    Abstract: A sensor may be configured to detect periodic limb movement in a sleeping person. The sensor may be a non-contact sensor, such as a radar motion sensor. The sensor may include a radio frequency transmitter for emitting radio frequency signals toward the person. The sensor may include a receiver for receiving reflected ones of the emitted radio frequency signals and processing the reflected ones of the emitted radio frequency signals to produce motion signal(s). A processor, such as one integrated with or coupled to the sensor, may evaluate the motion signals, such as in-phase and quadrature motion signals, and generate an indicator to identify occurrence of periodic limb movement in the motion signals based on the evaluation of the motion signals.
