- Abstract
- We propose a novel approach to determine the respiration rate of a moving subject, in terms of the velocity change, by using a frequency-modulated continuous-wave radar. In conventional methods, the respiration rate is determined by considering the variation in the distance between the targets and radar; however, these methods are vulnerable to the subject's movements. The proposed approach estimates the respiration rate by considering the velocity, instead of the distance. An experiment was conducted to measure respiration in several subjects performing various movements. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is more robust to the subject's movements compared to conventional research methods, and can more accurately estimate the respiration rate.
