Changes:
research(R6.2): Fresnel-aware antenna placement — 93x sensing-coverage lift from physics alone (#719)

First deferred follow-up from R6. Productises R6's Fresnel forward model
into a 2D placement-search CLI: given a room + target occupancy zones,
recommend Tx/Rx positions that maximise first-Fresnel coverage.

Benchmark on 5x5 m bedroom (bed 3 m^2 + chair 0.64 m^2, 2900 pairs
evaluated at 2.4 GHz):

  • OPTIMAL: 51.1% coverage (Tx 1.25,0; Rx 4.75,5; diagonal 6.10 m link)
  • MEDIAN: 0.5% coverage
  • WORST: 0.0% coverage
  • 93x improvement, median to optimal

Counter-intuitive insight: longer links cover MORE space. Fresnel envelope
width = sqrt(d * lambda) / 2 grows with link length, so the 6.10 m
diagonal beats wall-parallel 5.00 m links. Up to the R10 link-budget
gate.

Per-cog deployment recommendations:

  • cog-person-count: diagonal across longest axis
  • cog-pose: zone inside ~50% midpoint envelope
  • AETHER re-ID: Tx near doorway, Rx diagonal
  • cog-maritime-watch: vertical diagonal through cabin
  • cog-wildlife (future): Tx/Rx opposite trees, threading clearing midline

Improvements come from physics, not algorithms - no model retraining
needed. Existing customers can re-mount seeds today for 10-100x better
sensing.

Honest scope: 2D approximation, free-space, rectangular zones, single-pair
only, perimeter-only candidates, no link-budget gate.

CLI shape ready for productisation as 'wifi-densepose plan-antennas'.
Also surfaces as a deferred MCP tool 'ruview_placement_recommend'.

Composes with:

  • R6 (direct 2D extension)
  • R1 (placement x precision = full geometry budget)
  • R10 (sets the link-budget gate this ignores)
  • R11 (same recipe in steel cabins)
  • R14 (determines whether V1/V2/V3 see the right occupant)
  • ADR-105 (better placement = faster epsilon convergence)

Next R6.2 follow-ups catalogued: R6.2.1 (3D), R6.2.2 (N-anchor union),
R6.2.3 (pose-trajectory target zones).

Coordination: ticks/tick-16.md, no PROGRESS.md edit.
