Abstract: The disclosure herein provides cardiac monitoring and diagnostic system, methods, and devices. A cardiac diagnostic system for detecting potential indicators of cardiac disease comprises: a cardiac monitoring device comprising at least one electrode configured to detect an analog electrical cardiac signal of a user; a cardiac signal filter configured to convert the analog electrical cardiac signal to digital electrocardiogram data; an atypical cardiac sequence detector configured to detect atypical cardiac patterns in the electrocardiogram data that are potentially indicative of cardiac disease; and a notification transmitter configured to generate an alert when a detected atypical cardiac pattern is determined to be indicative of cardiac disease.

Abstract: A radar-based physiological motion sensor is disclosed. Doppler-shifted signals can be extracted from the signals received by the sensor. The Doppler-shifted signals can be digitized and processed subsequently to extract information related to the cardiopulmonary motion in one or more subjects. The information can include respiratory rates, heart rates, waveforms due to respiratory and cardiac activity, direction of arrival, abnormal or paradoxical breathing, etc. In various embodiments, the extracted information can be displayed on a display.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining presence and/or physiological motion of at least one subject using a Doppler radar system having a quadrature receiver are provided. In one example, the apparatus includes a transmitter for transmitting a source signal, a quadrature receiver for receiving the source signal and a modulated source signal (e.g., as reflected from one or more subjects), and logic for mixing the source signal and the received modulated source signal to generate in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) data, whereby nulls in the signal are avoided. In one example, the quadrature receiver further includes logic for center tracking quadrature demodulation. The apparatus may further include logic for determining physiological motion (e.g., heart rate and/or respiration rate of a person) of a subject based on the source signal and the modulated source signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting presence and/or physiological motion of at least one subject using a Doppler radar system and determining a number of subjects within range are provided. In one example, the apparatus includes a receiver for receiving a transmitted source signal, the transmitted source signal modulated by at least one subject, logic for mixing the received transmitted signal and a local oscillator signal, and logic for performing a Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) on the mixed signal to determine a number of subjects modulating the signal. Additionally, the receiver may include a quadrature receiver operable for mixing the source signal and the received modulated source signal to generate in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) data, whereby nulls in the signal are avoided.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining presence and/or physiological motion of at least one subject using a Doppler radar system are provided. In one example, the apparatus includes at least two inputs for receiving a transmitted signal (e.g., a continuous wave signal), the transmitted signal modulated during reflection from at least one subject, and logic (e.g., hardware, software, and/or firmware; including digital and/or analog logic) for determining physiological motion associated with the at least one subject (e.g., a heart rate and/or respiration rate of the subject). In one example the logic includes comparing (e.g., mixing) the received signal with the source signal. The apparatus may further comprise logic for quadrature detection of the received signals, and may include various blind source separation algorithms for detecting signals associated with separate subjects.
