Analysis of Human Gait Radar Signal Using Reassigned WVD

Abstract Human gait is one of the biological features for human recognition. The key feature of gait can be acquired by analyzing the human echo signal to CW radar. Based on the data from the test CW gait radar, the methods for analyzing multi-component non-stationary signal are discussed in detail. The comparison among the application STFT, WVD, Pseudo-smoothed WVD and its improvements in gait signal are given, and the basic method for gait feature extraction based on time-frequency analysis is proposed. The results in this paper will be a well support for further research.
