Human activities detection and classification based on micro-Doppler signatures near the baseline of forward scattering radar

Fall poses a major problem, which raises the concern of elderly populations aged 65 and above in all over the world. In this paper, we propose Forward Scattering Radar system as a Doppler sensor in distinguishing features of fall events from non-fall activities. The signal features of joint time-fre...
