Teach-the-Truck — Self-Discovered Vehicle State Axes

Every mechanical state — liftgate up, ramp out, spare wheel present, one door ajar — bends the signal in its own repeatable way. Cycling the state a few times teaches the system exactly which bend belongs to it. From then on, the mesh reports that state with no new sensor ever installed.

In the physics: Every mechanical configuration change moves conductive/dielectric structure and thus deterministically reshapes the multipath fingerprint (specific CIR taps appear/vanish, amplitudes shift). Controlled repetition isolates the covariance direction attributable to that state from ambient variation.
