Abstract :
Range-Doppler signatures of human motions are a useful tool for retrieving information on observed activities, but require an understanding of the scattering processes involved to enable interpretation. This paper presents a study of human range-Doppler signatures using both measurements and models, in particular focusing on the impact of the radar frequency to enable an understanding of any advantages in the use of multiple radar frequencies.
