Abstract :
Human motion characteristics study based on radar is a new technique developed in recent years. This paper firstly analyzes the model of human radar returns, and then designs an X-band continuous wave radar for human motion characteristics measurement. Experiments for measuring the human motion characteristics have been performed based on the radar. The Doppler features of human motion are extracted with time-frequency analysis from actual measured data generated by the radar, which verifies the validity of the measurement data.
