Abstract
A system for passively predicting and detecting falls using one or more dual-polarized Doppler radars and machine learning algorithms. The system is typically implemented for use in predicting or detecting falls in older adults and may be connected with various systems that can alert emergency services or hospice personnel in the event of a fallen individual. Furthermore, the system overcomes conventional radar systems by integrating vertical and horizontal micro-Doppler signatures into a combined signature which is analyzed by machine learning algorithms to correctly and expeditiously predict and detect a variety of human movements. The system also finds applications wherever micro-Doppler signals may be generated such as predicting or detecting behaviors or movements over time to detect and predict the onset of diseases and other disabilities.
