Abstract :
New technologies tend to improve our everyday life and to make it easier and this is shown especially within the framework of the medical analyses where the doctor always seeks the ease of its patient. In this context, a radar UWB was designed in order to extract, remotely and without any direct contact by electrodes, the rate of heartbeat of a patient. This radar contains a transmitting part and another receiving where we study the reception antenna and the LNA.
