Shaped-Beam Subarrays for Equi-Power Urban Area Coverage With Modularity and Low Cost

Design of millimeter-wave arrays for base stations operating in dense urban environment is investigated. Innovative designs for linear subarrays with shaped beam patterns for hybrid beamforming are proposed. The number of elements and element spacings in the subarrays are optimally selected based on a pattern matching technique. The subarrays...

Distributed Radar-based Human Activity Recognition using Vision Transformer and CNNs

The feasibility of classifying human activities measured by a distributed ultra-wideband (UWB) radar system using Range-Doppler (RD) images as the input to classifiers is investigated. Kinematic characteristics of different human activities are expected to be captured in high-resolution range-Doppler images measured by UWB radars. To construct...

Angle-insensitive Human Motion and Posture Recognition Based on 4D imaging Radar and Deep Learning Classifiers

The need for technologies for Human Activity Recognition (HAR) in home environments is becoming more and more urgent because of the aging population worldwide. Radar-based HAR is typically using micro-Doppler signatures as one of the main data representations, in conjunction with classification algorithms often inspired from deep learning...
