Abstract
SA non-contact detection system of sleep state, in operable communication with a radar sensor.
The radar sensor continuously collects I/Q channel signals and combines the IQ channel signals
as single-channel signals. The single-channel signal is used to measure the heartbeat rate and
breath rate using the frequency distribution method. An autoencoder is then invented to extract
the intrinsic features of the single-channel signal, which maintain the important information but
filter the unexpected noise. The extracted features, heartbeat rate and breath rate together form
the predictor for the detection of the sleep stage. An estimator, comprising several convolutional
layers and a softmax function, is invented to detect the specific sleep stage from awake, REM
(rapid eye movement), light sleep and deep sleep.

Radar based non-contact detection of sleep stage
Field of the Invention
[0001] This invention relates to non-contact detection of sleep stages, in operable communication with radar sensors.
Background of the Invention
[0002] Smart health monitoring is more and more popular in aged caring communities. Sleep during the night is an important factor that reflects people's health conditions. The sleep status can be generally classified into four stages, including awake, REM (rapid eye movement), light sleep and deep sleep. In most cases, these four stages usually occur during a full sleep cycle and a complete sleep contains several sleep cycles. Therefore, identifying the sleep stages and calculating the duration of each stage in a complete sleep are important in smart health monitoring systems.
[0003] In the current market, wearing a smartwatch is becoming a benchmark to detect the specific sleep stage. Smartwatches could measure a person's heartbeat rate and stability, and then combine these measurements to infer which stage the person is in during sleep. Although the precision of smartwatches is quite high for sleep stage detection, this contact way impedes its development among those people who do not like or want to wear matches during their sleep. Therefore, a non-contact way to detect sleep stages is desirable.
[0004] This invention will present a new approach that uses radar sensors to achieve non contact detection for the sleep stage.
Summary of the Disclosure
[0005] The sleep stage detection system comprises a radar sensor, an autoencoder and an estimator.
[0006] The radar sensor collects I and Q channel signals and then combines the two-channel signal into the one-channel signal.
[0007] The heartbeat rate and breath rate are estimated from the one-channel signal.
[0008] The autoencoder is designed to extract intrinsic features that maintain the most important information but filter unexpected noise.
[0009] The extracted features, together with heartbeat rate and breath rate, form the predictor of the sleep stage.
[0010] The estimator, comprising several convolutional layers and a softmax function, is invented to detect the specific sleep stage (awake, REM, light sleep or deep sleep).
Brief Description of the Drawings
[0011] Figure 1 shows an exemplary radar-based sleep stage detection system in accordance with an embodiment.
[0012] Figure 2 shows exemplary data processing in the system of Figure 1 in accordance with an embodiment.
Description of Embodiments
[0013] Figure 1 shows a heartbeat rate detector 101 for a home environment, bedroom room or the like.
[0014] Detector 101 comprises several sensors 104, autoencoder 105 and estimator 106. The data 103 is operable in system memory 102 for interpretation and execution of the computational functionality.
[0015] In the embodiment shown, the radar devices are installed above ceiling 107.
[0016] The detector can be configured to detect the breath rate of a person 111 who is laying on bed 110 within a supervision area 109.
[0017] In a specific time t, the radar sensor 104 would collect two kinds of channel signal, i.e., I channel signal 112 (denoted as I(t)) and Q channel signal 113 (denoted as Q (t)). The two-channel signal can be further processed as single-channel signal 114 using the following equation:
[0018] [Equation 1] S(t) = arctan Q M)
[0019] During a time period T(ti, t 2 ,..., ta ),a series signal can be obtained:
[0020] [Equation 2] S(T) = [S(t), S(t 2 ), , S(tn)]
[0021] Similar to the existing methods, the heartbeat rate 115 and breath rate 116 in the time period T can be measured by the frequency distribution method, denoted as HR (T) and BR(T), respectively.
[0022] Then, an autoencoder 117 is invented to extract the intrinsic features 118 of S(T). The detailed structure of the autoencoder 117 is shown in the table below.
Layer Input Output Index dimension dimension
encoding 1 A 4096 layers 2 4096 2048
3 2048 1024
decoding 4 1024 2048 layers 5 2048 4096
6 4096 A
[0023] Denote the output of the third layer, with S(T) being input, as S(T). S(T) is another kind of representation of S(T), which maintains the intrinsic information of S(T) but filters unexpected noise.
[0024] Then, S(T), HR(T) and BR(T) can be together formed as the predictor 119, denoted as PD(T), for the sleep stage during the time period T:
[0025] [Equation 3] PD(T) = [S(T), HR(T), BR(T) ]T
[0026] An estimator 106 is invented to perform the classification of different sleep stages including awake, REM, light sleep and deep sleep. The estimator is composed of several convolutional layers and a softmax function. The detailed structure of the estimator is shown in the table below.

2 3x3 1 1 512

5 3x3 1 1 1024
6 (fully - 1024 connected)
7 (fully - 4 connected)
8 (softmax function)
[0027] The loss function below is used to train the estimator:
[0028] [Equation 4]: L = Ik * log(pk)
[0029] where k = 0,1,2,3 represents the different sleep stages (awake, REM, light sleep and deep sleep) respectively. The lk = 1 if the person is in lk stage, otherwise 0. The Pk is the k the element of the output of the estimator. The training aim is to iteratively update the filters of the estimator to minimize the loss function of Equation 4.
[0030] After a well-trained estimator 106 is obtained, the sleep stage g(T) can be detected using the following equation:
[0031] [Equation 5]: g(T) = argmax(pk)
