The arctangent, DACM, and ScD methods were tested for accoupled and dc-coupled data. A 2.4 GHz quadrature radar system was used to measure sinusoidal modeled chest motion produced using a mechanical mover. Based on the tracking of average rate, Pearson Correlation coefficient, and peak displacement, arctangent successfully performed both rate measurement and displacement tracking. DACM and ScD were sufficient for respiratory rate measurement but not for real-time displacement tracking.","PeriodicalId":219307,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference (APMC)","volume":"17 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123032006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A proof-of-concept prototype is presented, using patch radiators at 10 GHz and frequency-doubling towards 20 GHz. Measurements show minor influence of the probing setup on the radiators and localization of the active radiator being possible from received signals at both ends of the dielectric waveguide.","PeriodicalId":219307,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference (APMC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129952875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
