Abstract 

In the view of national security, radar micro-Doppler (m-D) signatures-based recognition of suspicious human activities becomes significant. In connection to this, early detection and warning of terrorist activities at the country borders, protected/secured/guarded places and civilian violent protests is mandatory. Designing an automated human suspicious activities: army crawling, army jogging, jumping with holding a gun, army marching, boxing, and stone-pelting/grenades-throwing, recognition system using a suitable deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model is rapidly growing due to its inherent in-depth features extraction capability. As a value addition to this research, an X-band continuous wave (CW) 10 GHz radar has been developed at our radar systems laboratory and used to acquire the m-D signatures, to prepare a dataset (DIAT-μRadHAR) corresponding to above mentioned suspicious activities. In order to prepare a realistic dataset, human targets of different heights, weights, and gender are directed to perform the suspicious activities in front of the radar at different ranges between 10 m - 0.5 km and at different target aspect angles (0°, ±15°, ±30° and ±45°).

Instructions: 

In our dataset, the total number of spectrogram images generated using the open-field experiments is 3780, and the class-wise details can be found in our journal articles (1)   M. Chakraborty, H. C.

The dataset consist of 3780 spectrogram images (Image JPG File (.JPG) and .MAT) corresponding to micro-Doppler signatures of different human activities; namely (a) army marching, (b) Stone pelting/Grenades throwing, (c) jumping with holding a gun, (d) army Jogging, (e) army crawling and (f) boxing activities.
