Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-person through-wall time varying breathing signal detection method based on VMD, comprising the steps of: an ultra wide band emission antenna emitting narrow pulse, through human thoracic cavity micro-doppler vibration, echo being received by a receiving antenna, and performing slow time sampling on ultra wide band radar echo to obtain a through-wall human body echo signal matrix; calculating the variance of each distance door through a distance door selection algorithm, the one with a largest variance being a distance door where a multi-person target exists, and employing a low pass filter to eliminate high frequency interference and superfluous frequency components; utilizing a VMD algorithm to perform mode decomposition on filtered signals, and iterating sub-signals to obtain effective information meeting the number and frequency band of breathing; and performing Hilbert transformation and time frequency treatment to obtain dynamic instantaneous information including smooth breathing characteristics. The method can effectively eliminate interference harmonic wave of different breathing components, remove metope interference, and enhance weak breathing signals, and has the characteristics of strong interference immunity and accurate time varying tracking characteristics.
