Noncontact Detection of Respiration Rate Based on Forward Scatter Radar

Bioradar-based noncontact breathing detection technology has been widely studied due to its superior detection performance.In this paper, a breath detection mechanism based on the change in radar Light Bars cross section (RCS) is proposed by using a forward scatter radar and the deduction of the mathematical model of the received signal.Furthermore, we completed human breathing detection experiments in an anechoic chamber and in an Ethernet Switch ordinary chamber; we obtained the breathing rate through envelope detection in cases where the human orientation angle was 0, 30, 60, and 90°.The analysis of the measured data shows that the theoretical model fits well with the measured results.

Compared with the existing single-base radar detection schemes, the proposed scheme can detect human respiratory rates in different orientations.
