Abstract:Noncontact vital sign monitoring based on radar has attracted great interest in many fields. Heart Rate Variability (HRV), which measures the fluctuation of heartbeat intervals, has been considered as an important indicator for general health evaluation. This paper proposes a new algorithm for HRV monitoring in which frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar is used to separate echo signals from different distances, and the beamforming technique is adopted to improve signal quality. After the phase refl… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
