Abstract

The aim of this paper is to explore a non-contact cardiopulmonary detection method in natural disaster rescue relief, based on the use of frequencies and antennas that are similar to current smartphone-like devices. The paper focuses in particular on the current Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio frequencies wavelength, Doppler effect radar, signal processes, and a signal noise cleansing technique that detects and measures vital signs. This approach could be used as an alternative to the commercially designed, devices currently used for heartbeat and respiration detection during rescue relief with the aim of reducing device transit time and cost. This paper further evaluates a new type of multi-directional antenna that could be used to detect the human pulsatile from 360 degree view.
