Life-sign detection with FMCW radar
conference paper
In this paper we present some preliminary results on life-sign detection using FMCW radars. Several persons were observed from different aspects with carrier frequencies between 2.4 GHz and 24 GHz. In most cases, reliable life-sign measurements could be done, although we found a considerable influence of the aspect of observation. On the hand of our measurements, we discuss the origin of the life-sign signals as well as design considerations for actual life-sign radars for different applications.
