Abstract

Small displacement detection has been studied for extracting heart rate signal from the respiratory variation component of the human body with the FMCW radar method. And a new signal processing method of vital signal has been proposed for suppression of unrequired variation components called projection matrix method. We have presented experimental results of small displacement detection to confirm the validity of the method.

Highlights

  • Small displacement detection technology in millimetre order at microwave band is expected to a number of applications

  • We know that the CW radar system and UWB pulse radar system have been used for measuring the small displacement [4]

  • The method may take longer computation time to accurately estimate closer signals [6]. Considering these problems, in this paper, we propose a method for suppressing unnecessary periodic fluctuation component with a projection matrix

Summary

Introduction

Small displacement detection technology in millimetre order at microwave band is expected to a number of applications. The main advantages of the FMCW (frequency modulated continuous wave) radar are simple solid-state transmitters, resistance to interception, and good range resolution. FMCW method performs the velocity and range measurement, and it is considered a good solution for noncontact vital signs detection [1,2,3]. The method may take longer computation time to accurately estimate closer signals [6]. Considering these problems, in this paper, we propose a method for suppressing unnecessary periodic fluctuation component with a projection matrix. Last we have shown the results of the experiment with radar devices that comply with specified low power radio station 24 GHz. We have verified the effectiveness of the proposed method for suppressing unnecessary fluctuation component
