Movement Measurement of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Patients Using IR-UWB Radar Sensor

Abstract

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, and has been evaluated based on history, subjective complaints, and reports of observers. Although tools for objectively evaluating the degree of inattention have been developed sufficiently, there is a limit to the use of tools that objectively assess the degree of hyperactivity. In this paper, we use the IR-UWB Radar Sensor to calculate the movement of patients with ADHD based on the positioning and tracking in the laboratory room. We will verify the effectiveness of the radar sensor by comparing it with the momentum of the Actigraph sensor, and verify the usefulness of the radar sensor by positioning and tracking the patient.
