Abstract

Techniques to image life forms through obstructions and at long standoff ranges employ a radar system that simultaneously transmits a plurality of RF pulse trains having different transmission frequencies and receives returns of the RF pulse trains reflected from a life form target. The returns are processed to generate digital radar data associated with the transmission frequency of each RF pulse train. The digital radar data is segmented and averaged to generate a Doppler spectrum response associated with the transmission frequency of each RF pulse train. Target classification is performed using the Doppler spectrum responses to extract biometric data describing the life form target.
