Vital sign detection
The data utilized the IWR1642 FMCW radar and the DCA1000EVM data acquisition board from Texas Instruments. Three different environments—bedroom, shared office, and unoccupied conference room—were selected as potential scenarios for non-contact vital sign monitoring. Continuous monitoring was conducted at distances of 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2m for 120s. The results were calculated using a 30-second data window, with 91 calculations performed during each monitoring session, starting from the 30th second and continuing until the 120th second.

A wide range of wearable sensors exist on the market for continuous physiological health monitoring. The type and scope of health data that can be gathered is a function of the sensor modality. Blumio presents a dataset of synchronized data from a reference blood pressure device along with several wearable sensor types: PPG, applanation tonometry, and the Blumio millimeter-wave radar. Data collection was conducted under set protocol with subjects seated at rest. 115 study subjects were included (age range 20-67 years), resulting in over 19 hours of data acquired.

Radar devices can be used to monitor vital signs, such as respiratory and cardiac rates. For this purpose, the phase of an echo signal received from the chest or back of a human is usually used; subsequently, respiratory rate detection (RRD) and cardiac rate detection (CRD) can be achieved by estimating two fundamental frequencies corresponding to the respiratory and cardiac rates, respectively.
