Abstract
We present the development on an ultra-wideband (UWB) radar system and its signal processing algorithms for detecting human breathing and heartbeat in the paper. The UWB radar system consists of two (Tx and Rx) antennas and one compact CMOS UWB transceiver. Several signal processing techniques are developed for the application. The system has been tested by real measurements.
