Abstract :
Two different sensor concepts based on the impulse radar principle are proposed to determine position and physiological parameters (heartbeat and breath frequency) of a person in the interior of a vehicle. In this paper, the sensor concepts are presented as well as first measurement results collected in both laboratory and vehicle environment.
