Parametric study of antennas for long range Doppler radar heart rate detection

Abstract: This research presents results obtained from long range measurements of physiological motion pertaining to human cardiac and respiration activity. A pulse pressure sensor was used as reference to verify the results from radar signals. A motion detection and grading algorithm was used to detect the presence of heart rate. In addition to showing that human heart rate and respiration can be measured at distances of 21 and 69 meters respectively, the effect of antenna size, radiation pattern and gain on the range … Show more

“…In Table 1, the titles are grouped in accordance with the radar types used, and within each category (group), they are sorted by the vital parameters measured. The number of test persons in the studies ranged from one test person [10,12,24,42,43,49,60,[85][86][87]108] to 212 test persons [98,99]. Five of the experiments were conducted with children and babies [17,45,84,88,89], eleven with miscellaneous patient groups [5,17,21,39,41,51,88,89,91,93,112] and one with animals [38], while seven experiments additionally measured a model [37,42,44,60,85,97] and two exclusively measured a model [90,92].…”

“…There have been many advances in Doppler radar and its medical use [19], [20], [27]- [32]. Technical advances have led to compact radar modules and a better understanding of hardware requirements [33], [34]. Advances in signal processing have led to the detection of multiple subjects and detection of parameters such as respiratory tidal volume and respiratory sinus arrhythmia in addition to respiratory and heart rates [35], [36].…”

“…Off-the-shelf radar kit designs have also been used for radar sleep monitoring and automated sleep apnea detection ( Zaffaroni et al., 2009 ; Savage et al., 2016 ). The use of appropriate signal processing can isolate respiratory and heart signals accurately even when the radar system is meters or even tens of meters away from the subject ( Droitcour et al., 2001 ; Baboli et al., 2012a ). Longer-range search and rescue triage applications of Doppler radar have also emerged.…”
