Multipath Exploitation for Human Activity Recognition using a Radar Network

In this study, the problem of multipath in radar sensor networks for human activity recognition (HAR) has been examined. Traditionally considered as a source of additional clutter, the multipath is being investigated for its potential to be exploited through the creation of virtual radar nodes. These virtual nodes are conceptualized to...

Fusion of Data from Multiple Automotive Radars for High-Resolution DoA Estimation

High angular resolution is in high demand in automotive radar. To achieve a high azimuth resolution a large aperture antenna array is required. Although MIMO technique can be used to form larger virtual apertures, a large number of transmitter-receiver channels are needed, which is still technologically challenging and costly. To circumvent this...

Continuous Human Activity Recognition With Distributed Radar Sensor Networks and CNN–RNN Architectures

Unconstrained human activities recognition with a radar network is considered. A hybrid classifier combining both convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for spatial–temporal pattern extraction is proposed. The 2-D CNNs (2D-CNNs) are first applied to the radar data to perform spatial feature extraction on the...
