Noise and sensitivity analysis of harmonic radar system for vital sign detection

Harmonic radar architectures present systems of wireless detection operating at multiple harmonic carrier frequencies. The noise and sensitivity of a harmonic radar system, which is developed at 12 GHz and 24 GHz for vital signs detection, are studied numerically and experimentally. The received signal power of the radar system is analyzed numerically as a function of the distance, taking into account the radar cross section (RCS) of the patient chest. The numerical data are compared with results obtained with single carrier frequency system. The total noise is a combination of thermal noise, residual phase noise, and flicker noise that presents the most elevated factor influencing the detection at baseband. Experimental results show that with the harmonic radar, the flicker noise can be reduced by 20dB at around 1Hz baseband frequency.
