Radio frequency (RF) object detection using radar and machine learning

Abstract:

Embodiments described herein can address these and other issues by using radar machine learning to address the radio frequency (RF) to perform object identification, including facial recognition. In particular, embodiments may obtain IQ samples by transmitting and receiving a plurality of data packets with a respective plurality of transmitter antenna elements and receiver antenna elements, where each data packet of the plurality of data packets comprises one or more complementary pairs of Golay sequences. I/Q samples indicative of a channel impulse responses of an identification region obtained from the transmission and reception of the plurality of data packets may then be used to identify, with a random forest model, a physical object in the identification region.
