【講座摘要】

Monitoring of human daily activities can be achieved using different sensing modalities, including cameras, acoustics, and infrared.  Because of its preservation of privacy, insensitivity to light and heat, and penetration of many visually opaque objects, including walls, radar has presented itself as a viable alternative to existing contactless indoor monitoring technologies. 

This short course captures a new radar application that touches on our daily living. It is radar for indoor monitoring. The safety, reliability, and affordability of radar devices have made them a prime candidate for use inside office buildings, homes, schools, and hospitals, with the main purpose of monitoring regular and abnormal motion activities. Although radar imaging of stationary targets and background scenes, using physical and synthesized apertures, is a well-known and mature radar application, indoor radar sensing has heavily relied on Doppler frequencies stemming from targets in motions.
