Abstract
With the popularity of small-screen smart mobile devices, gestures as a new type of human–computer interaction are highly demanded. Furthermore, finger gestures are more familiar to people in controlling devices. In this paper, a new method for recognizing finger gestures is proposed. Ultrasound was actively emitted to measure the micro-Doppler effect caused by finger motions and was obtained at high resolution. By micro-Doppler processing, micro-Doppler feature maps of finger gestures were generated. Since the feature map has a similar structure to the single channel color image, a recognition model based on a convolutional neural network was constructed for classification. The optimized recognition model achieved an average accuracy of 96.51% in the experiment.

Summary
Touchscreen control is used in most mobile devices, such as mobile phones and tablets. When a person uses it with a wet hand or gloved hand, the touch will not work well. With the rapid development of mobile devices, such as small-sized smart watches, it is very inconvenient to control devices on a small screen. As a part of human communication, gestures can be used to express a wide variety of emotions and thoughts. Gestures are usually the second most natural method of interaction between humans and the environment, as well as among humans [1]. Gestures are convenient and have a vast interaction space and super high flexibility, providing excellent interactive experience. Gestures in human–computer interactions have gained greater attention in recent years [2]
