Abstract

Radar based HR and BR measurements by simultaneous decoding is a technical problem due to presence of intermodulation of BR and HR harmonics, which degrades simultaneous decoding. Embodiments herein provide a method and system for unobtrusive liveliness detection and monitoring of a subject using a Dual Frequency Radar (DFR) in an IOT network. The system has the capability to completely process the captured raw signals onboard to by applying required signal conditioning and extraction of relevant information using unique signal processing techniques for determining the HR and the BR of the subject accurately. The intermodulation of BR and HR harmonics is eliminated by the system by performing frequency spectrum averaging of both radars signals, which improves the accuracy. Further, the system is configured with a light MQTT protocol and encoding modules for any data to be shared for off board processing, ensuring data security and privacy compliance.
