This paper presents a new approach to classify human motions using a Doppler radar for applications in security and surveillance. Traditionally, the Doppler radar is an effective tool for detecting the position and velocity of a moving target, even in adverse weather conditions and from a long range. In this paper, we are interested in using the Doppler radar to recognize the micro-motions exhibited by people. In the proposed approach, a frequency modulated continuous wave radar is applied to scan the target, and the short-time Fourier transform is used to convert the radar signal into spectrogram. Then, the new two-directional, …

An image classification technique, which has recently been introduced for visual pattern recognition, is successfully applied for human gait classification based on radar Doppler signatures depicted in the time-frequency domain. The proposed method has three processing stages. The first two stages are designed to extract Doppler features that can effectively characterize humanmotion based on the nature of arm swings, and the third stage performs classification. Three types of arm motion are considered: free-arm swings, one-arm confined swings, and no-arm swings. The last two arm motions can be indicative of a human carrying objects or a person in stressed situations. The …
