To accurately classify signals I needed to determine salient information, information that matters, but that information needs to standout from the other. That is the signal to noise ratio challenge. So the first part is determining what signal is of value and the second part is classifying what is noise free or important. 4

How it worksReflected by a target , travel time of received signal gives some information (distance, shape, altitude)Doppler RadarFrequency shifts because of moving target

Radar principleRadar principle

Bounce and time of travel

The radar signals that are reflected back towards the transmitter are the desirable ones that make radar work. If the object is moving either toward or away from the transmitter, there is a slight equivalent change in the frequency of the radio waves, caused by the Doppler effect.

Here is a short distance radar circuit, it could be more simpler than this, with just one power divider, one mixerSingle channel radars have some limitation, there are certain points where the radar output does not give any useful information about the targets motion.Hence a quadrature radar is used, What quad radar is two channel, more information, stereo vision mono vision

While some processing can be done in the front end to suppress noise, most of the processing has to be done after data acquisition and digitization and use signal processing techniques.

I usually show this slide for general audience for them to have an idea of how Doppler phase shift helps determining vital sign.Depending on frequency the phase modulation will vary.For example a 2mm displacement would cause 5.7 degree for a 2.4 GHz radar. I point to one important thing here. I told about a quadrature radar in previous slide. Now if you make a plot one channel vs. the other, for a periodic signal you see an arc.

With proper demodulation the phase will be 4pi(x)/lambda

RESEARCH CHALLENGE

I want the displacement due to breathing or cardiopulmonary activity as shown around the heart sign for persons.If I measure that , say I get plots like this , this and this. For all of those we understand what the breathing rate is, it is right there.It gets little trickier, what about the depth, can we tell how deeply someone is breathing? Yes, you have a good signal there, and you have a model where displacement is proportional to radar output, so you can do that.You can do that for each personNow what if I wanted to tell the difference between this one , this one and this one then it is a matter of how good are these signals are,

One of these are like little bended, some has variation in up and down slope, they are all giving me rate and depth, but there are other differences which can be more clear depending on the quality of the signal.

Now if I only focus on the differences and measure the chest displacement I do not want to see and fidgeting, hand movements, or the radar shake due to hand movement.

So again the key here if I we want to tell the difference between these patterns , I have start with a system that gives a true and quality representation of distance, rate, slope, depth all of these has to be accurate.

So my talk will first look cleaning up those factors , so we have good signal, a low distortion system in other words.Then what's left can we do pattern recognition?

Fidgeting motion , there is actually a lot on that. There are techniques that you can do to reduce that, I am not going to go too much details into that.

But what is the remedy of handshake? You can use a tripod, but there are cases where we cannot use a tripod.

People do fidget, but in between fidgeting person stay still, so if you can recognize the difference between fidgeting and staying still you can find the vital signs.

We are going to assume that we are able to recognize the difference and able to record data when there is low fidgeting, but we cannot ignore the fact that radar it self may be in motion, shake, again since these short distance radars are very sensitive to any sort of displacement we will have to account for that seriously.

The platform might not be just handheld, it could be in a hospital situation, we use these radars in search and rescue operation, so they can be in any mobile platform.You can solve the problem by not shaking the hand, however there might be other situations.

MOTION ARTIFACT/NOISE14Motion artifact / Noise

Human subject fidgeting is not a problem / since human is not always moving. There has been some experiments and it is shown that those sweet spots are identifiable. So I will be mainly focusing on the platform motion.

I want to mention when I say target, chest motion, vital sign motion they apply all the samePlatform motion- means the measuring device which is the radar is mounted on something , a tripod stationary case, or a mobile platform.I have picked this special sub category for study.14

CLASSIFICATION OF ISOLATED BIO SIGNALS

Even there is some variation in the arc, distinguish between a normal one from a abnormal one Assumption that , noise has been suppressed what we could do the isolated bio-signals.15

RESEARCH OBJECTIVEI. Isolating bio motion from noise motion (assumption bio motion are similar to each other and different from noise) II. Classification of Isolated bio signals (Within the definition of bio-signal how they differ for illness or person to person) Emphasized focus 16

Determine how they same so that we can separate them noise, now once we have done that within the definition of bio signals how they are different from sick person to normal person or person to person.

The basic algorithm of the linear demodulation includes the followingsteps: 1) subtract the mean from each of the data dimension, 2) calculate the covariancematrix, 3) calculate the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the covariance matrix, and 4)choose the components to form a feature vector. For the quadrature receiver, first, anydc offset is removed from the data, and the covariance matrix between the I and Qchannels is found. The I-Q arc is rotated such that it will be parallel to the Q-axis. Toachieve this, the received signal is multiplied by the transpose of the covariance matrixeseigenvector. After the rotation, the Q-component is always in an optimum point andthe I-component is always in a null point. Thus, this Q-component can be used as thedemodulation signal.

Another advantage of the linearmodulation is that detection of sudden changes in eigenvector and eigen value can beused to identify the motion artifacts,16

Mostafanezhad et al. (2007) Sensor Nodes for Doppler Radar Measurements of Life SignsC. Li et al. (2008) Random Body Movement Cancellation in Doppler Radar Vital Sign Detection 18

Body MovementRadar Platform ShakeSensor Node Antenna Shake CancelEmpirical Mode Decomposition

In literature there are some work reported for motion artifact compensation, both in category of body shake cancellation and platform shake cancellation. For instance, Hand shake cancellation for short duration of time, but not quite from a continuously moving mobile platformBi-static radars, separate receivers, they are not wired together, separating the transmitter from the receiver gives some advantage, it can ignore transmitter motion, some drawbacks, you do not have two channel high accuracy precision. Compromise. It helps but does not help on everything One approach is multiple radars from different angle to cancel fidgeting motion, however in this case the radars have to be sedentary which does not apply for mobile radar application.

- Sensor node has some disadvantages as well as empirical mode decomposition requires computational processingSome experiments only for sudden shake cancellation not from a mobile platform with larger amplitude of motionsTwo radars from two sides, only limited to some suitable scenario

Some works have been published addressing motion artifact due to hand shake for Doppler radar sensors. One way of tackling this problem is using a sensor node [3]. Empirical mode decomposition techniques were discussed for removing fidgeting interference in Doppler radar life signs monitoring devices [4]. Our work further analyzes the noise compensation not only for transmit antenna, but also the whole radar module for continuous motion of larger amplitude in order to use the system in vehicle mounted devices. Sensor node technique is not always feasible because it requires additional daq device nearby a subject. In EMD method intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) should be selected manually which is not always possible and it is more computationally complex18

AC/DC COUPLING IN CW DOPPLER RADARAC coupling - works as high pass filterLow frequency distortionHigher dynamic range before it reach saturation

DC-coupling-No nonlinear distortion @ low frequencyDynamic range is lesser than AC coupled systems

19

Okay so far I have talked about noise or artifacts introduced by motion for the target or the platform itself. Now there is another kind of distortion which is introduced in circuit level and it is AC coupling distortion. Since the demodulated RF is down converted to baseband and amplified for processing, the amps can be set in either DC coupling or AC coupling mode19

AC/DC COUPLING IN CW DOPPLER RADAR20

Displacement is proportional to the output, this experiment was done moving the platform moving forward, then rest and go backward. The same experiment was done for and dc coupling. Note the blue curve at resting try to go back to 0, hence you see a distortion. AC coupling shows distortion20

X1+X2

HOW DOES MOTION ARTIFACT MODULATE?

Displacement is proportional to voltage output (modulation) within limitX2X121

In simple cartoonish visualization-When there is only targets movement related to vital sign, since respiration movement is periodic , you see somewhat like x1, Now if the platform is moving in periodic movement the output signals are bounced of from stationary clutter and you see an output like this. Now combination looks like this.21

HYPOTHESISVital Sign (such as respiration, heart rate ) can be measured if successful noise cancellation/motion compensation is performed by acquiring enough information about the motionVital sign / Motion of interest = Received signal Radar platform motion22

Now I can state my hypothesis Proving concept , take a complex model state another hypothesis , extend it to 3 dimensional motion.22

IIR FILTERS Analyze the radar motionDetermine the frequency components Apply filter

IIR filters Simple experiments (Radar motion components were 2Hz, 1.2 Hz)2nd/4th Order Butterworth filter was used26

However, vital sign detection from mobile radar system is challenging due to possible aliasing, phase distortion and occurrence of null point. These problems occur due to variable traveling distance from radar antennas and target. 26

ADAPTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION (0.2 Hz)

Strong aliasingIIR filters werent useful

29

Now considering a situation where there is a possibility of having components closer to respiration, there will be aliasing, also if the platform motion is changing which would be true for real case, we need some sort of adaptation. So instead of using fixed filters I used adaptive filters. Well in case of severe aliasing adaptive filters will suffer as well. But it is more practical in motion compensating problems

A least mean square adaptive filter was used for platform motion cancellation. Adaptive filter parameters , why do you need adaptive filter, why IIR does not work but adaptive filter works29

RESULTS ADAPTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION

Do you really want yourself to be exposed always?Do I always have to touch that machine? Is it safe?

47

In various ways you can identify a person, fingerprint , eyes and such. Sometimes you want to be unobtrusive, sometimes you want to do it through the wall. Is there a non contact through the wall unique identification.

Respiration signals look like enough so you can tell respiration rate, but they still look different and examining how accurately we can tell difference from one person to another.
