1. A communication device, comprising:
a receiver configured to receive, by an antenna of the receiver, one or more radio frequency signals from an external communication device that does not form a part of the communication device;
a classifier configured
to extract one or more signal amplitude characteristics from the one or more radio frequency signals,
to classify the external communication device based on the one or more signal amplitude characteristics of the one or more radio frequency signals received by the receiver, and
to output a corresponding classification result that indicates a type of the external communication device as one of multiple types of communication devices; and
a processing unit configured to change one or more configuration settings of the communication device in dependence on the classification result.
