Abstract

Identifying human targets in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging is crucial for security and rescue ap-plications, but it poses range and accuracy challenges. This paper presents a vital-SAR-imaging method developed using a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar system. A measurement setup is developed to capture reflections from human breathing induced chest movements. The Intermediate Frequency (IF) is processed through an audio port of the PC sound card. The acquired data is processed and matched with synchronization pulse and used to generate SAR images. The experimental results showcase the accuracy and extended range in identifying human targets useful for localization applications.
