Abstract

Purpose: In this paper, we propose an algorithm for detecting respiratory rate and heart beat of a driver of car by exploiting Doppler radar, and verifying the feasibility of the study through experiments. Method: In this paper, we propose a weighted peak detection technique using peak frequency values. The tests are performed in stop-state and driving-state, and the experiment result is analyzed by two proposed algorithms. Result: The results showed more than 95% and 96% accuracy of respiratory and heart rate, respectively. It also showed more than 72% and 84% accuracy of those even for driving experiments. Conclusion: The proposed detection scheme for vital signs can be used for the safety of the driver as well as for prevention of a large size of car accidents.

연구목적: 본 논문에서는 도플러 레이더를 활용하여 차량 운전자의 호흡과 심박을 추정하는 알고리즘을 제안하고 실험을 통해 연구의 가능성을 확인한다. 연구방법: 본 논문에서는 검출 신호의 peak 주파수 값과 가중치를 활용하는 weighted peak detection 기법을 제안한다. 정지 상태와 주행 상태에서의 실험을 통해 제안하는 두 알고리즘의 정확도를 분석한다. 연구결과: 제안하는 알고리즘을 통해 정지 상태에서 측정된 호흡과 심박 검출 정확도는 각각 95%, 96% 이상의 결과를 보였다. 또한 실제 주행 실험에서도 각 72%, 84% 이상의 정확도를 보여 주행 시의 활용 가능성을 확인하였다. 결론: 본 논문에서 제안하는 생세 신호 검출 기법은 차량 운전자의 호흡이나 심장 이상을 자동으로 검출함으로 운전자 본인 및 대형 교통사고를 예방하는 기술로 활용이 가능하다.
