Radar for indoor monitoring : detection, classification, and assessment

Description

"This book aims to capture recent advances and breakthroughs in in-home radar monitoring of human motions and activities. It addresses three key attributes of radar for in-door human monitoring, namely: fall detection, detection of vital signs, and assessment of human gait for risk assessment and progression of physical impairments and disabilities. It explores recent developments in radar technology for human monitoring inside homes and residences. The reader will learn enhanced detection and classification techniques of radar signals associated with micro- and macro-motions. Furthermore, the book includes examples using real data collected from patients and retirement communities, as well as modeled data based on biomechanics and kinematics"--  Read more...
