A configurable short-range Radar for Indoor and Outdoor Personnel Monitoring

In this paper, we propose a configurable radar scheme based on a flexible RF front-end and signal processing methods, which achieves effective personnel monitoring in both indoor and outdoor scenarios. The indoor monitoring scheme can distinguish between the echo signals of stationary human bodies and other clutter signals indoors, and when combined with the MUSIC algorithm, it can provide precise location information of individuals. In outdoor scenes, the radar system can monitor real-time personnel changes within the monitoring area by calculating the correlation coefficient between real-time data and reference environmental data.
