The design of a robust and intelligent phased array Non-Contact Vital Signs (NCVS) sensor system
… capable of continuous, accurate, and long-term monitoring of human vital signs. Having a system that can measure and record vital signs, such as heart rates and respiration rates, is an invaluable tool for physicians who need to make rapid life-and-death decisions. Such a system would also be an …
