Publication number: 20240021062Abstract: Target monitoring and alert systems for identifying and tracking targets within radar data. Raw frame data is filtered to remove data relating to reflections from static objects. Moving targets are identified in the filtered data and their location is tracked over time generating target data. Neural networks may process the target data, calculate a fall likelihood score and generate a fall-alert if this is above an alert-threshold. A person identification module may extract the position and motion characteristics of each target from the data and generate a probabilistic identification of the target with a person.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2022Publication date: January 18, 2024Inventors: Tsachi ROSENHOUSE, Alon KEREN, Shay MOSHE, Amit DVASH, Ido KLEMER, Michael ORLOVSKY, Ronen TUR, Rotem BARDA

Patent number: 9143194Abstract: A method includes accepting an analog input signal that includes a sequence of pulses. The analog input signal is filtered so as to produce a filter output, using a filter whose time-domain response is confined to a finite time period and whose frequency-domain response is non-zero at a finite set of integer multiples of a frequency shift ??, and is zero at all other integer multiples of ??. The filter output is sampled so as to produce digital samples. Respective amplitudes and time positions of the pulses in the sequence are calculated based on the digital samples.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2011Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: TECHNION RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION LTD.Inventors: Yonina Eldar, Ronen Tur, Zvi Friedman
