Original Kurzfassung:
In this paper a novel method for vital
parameter detection using an Ultra Wideband (UWB)
pulse radar is presented. By using sub-nanosecond pulses
the displacement of a human chest due to respiratory
movement can be detected very accurately. Because of the
very broadband behavior of the transmit signal the
presented system is also capable to penetrate materials like
walls. For signal processing we use the Continuous
Wavelet Transform (CWT) with a special background
subtraction method. This allows a detection of respiration
up to a distance of 5 meters and also behind walls. The
radar test set-up with the used components and the
applied signal processing on real measurement data are
presented.
