Embodiment approach

[0308] An embodiment of a method for separating a plurality of cardiopulmonary signals is shown in FIG. 14 , the method comprising:

[0309] 1. As shown in block diagrams 1401a to 1401d, the method includes: determining the frequency component f=f of the cached data most likely to contain cardiopulmonary signals 1 , f 2 ,..., f n . In some embodiments, these frequency components may be determined by measuring the power spectral density of the channel combination and applying a cost function to the output. In some embodiments, the power spectral density of the channel combination can be determined by obtaining the power spectral densities from the receivers and adding them to obtain the combined spectrum. In some embodiments, a low pass filter is applied before obtaining the power spectral density from each receiver. In some embodiments, the cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter is 1 Hz.

[0310] 2. As shown in block diagram 1402, the method further includes: identifyin...

Abstract

A radar-based physiological motion sensor is disclosed. Doppler-shifted signals can be extracted from the signals received by the sensor. The Doppler-shifted signals can be digitized and processed subsequently to extract information related to the cardiopulmonary motion in one or more subjects. The information can include respiratory rates, heart rates, waveforms due to respiratory and cardiac activity, direction of arrival, abnormal or paradoxical breathing, etc. In various embodiments, the extracted information can be displayed on a display.
