Title
Comparison of heart rate estimators for Doppler radar monitoring
Abstract
Sophisticated algorithms for heartbeat monitoring from electrocardiogram (ECG) signals have been investigated for forty years [1]. Most of the actual algorithms are extremely reliable and efficient. Nevertheless they cannot be used for remote heartbeat monitoring [2], where the signals are acquired through a Doppler radar system. One challenge encountered with heartbeat radar is that after separation of two or more heartbeats, the resulting output is significantly affected by the use of a low-pass filter. In this paper, we investigate the performance of our proposed algorithm compared to existing heart rate measurement methods, and show a decisive advantage when data is acquired through use of a Heartbeat Doppler Radar (HDR).
