RADAR SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD FOR IMPROVED OCCUPANT VITAL MONITORING

A radar signal processing method for improved occupant vital monitoring includes a method for detecting vital signs using at least one radar sensor mounted to a vehicle. The method includes detecting a plurality of target candidates using the at least one radar sensor, analyzing the plurality of target candidates to generate a list of targets, steering the at least one radar sensor towards the target using the angle of arrival to the target, and detecting a vital signal of the target based on the range using the at least one radar sensor.
