Abstract
This paper presents a novel method to reduce measurement time for remote heart rate measurement using mmWave FMCW radar. The proposed method is based on the sampling theory and the frame structure of recent FMCW radar systems. The range displacement from heartbeat is measured by 60GHz FMCW radar with a fixed frame interval, 50ms. With additional chirp repetition in each frame, the heartbeat signal can be sampled with increased or decreased interval. By adopting three different sampling rates from a single radar measurement, the resolution of heart rate measurement is improved in a short time, 2.5s. The proposed method is evaluated with a commercial off-the-shelf FMCW radar system and three different human subject, for no respiration and natural status. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the heart rate result is compared with ECG sensor and conventional signal processing method. The results show that the proposed method estimates the heart rate with lower error and shorter measurement time.
