Summary: | Nowadays, many elderly people need patient care monitoring. Using non-contact vital
sign monitoring can provide better information for night caregivers or nurses to
improve the efficiency of caring for a large number of patients.
In human body sensing applications, traditionally PIR (Pyro-electric Infrared Detector,
pyroelectric infrared sensor), camera, and ultrasonic sensors are used, but these
detection technologies can only sense primary and secondary movements. The human
movement cannot be accurately detected. The new small high-precision radar sensor
can already detect extremely small human movements, whether it is main, slight
movements, or even breathing movements, and has become a new choice for human
detection applications.
This project is to talk about the radar with machine intelligence for vital sign
monitoring. This report provides some literature review which include some basic
radar principles and data processing procedures. Also, this report describes how the
hardware and software will be implemented to analyse the radar signal. By analysing
those results, we can judge the measurement accuracy under different situations.
Therefore, we can clearly know the advantages and limitations of this radar sensor. |
