Description

Ultra-wideband radar heart rate detection method based on multi-sequence WOA-VMD algorithm
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ultra-wideband radar, in particular to an ultra-wideband radar heart rate detection method based on a multi-sequence WOA-VMD algorithm.
Background
Vital signs are commonly used to determine whether current vital activity exists and to understand the physiological state of a living body. Wherein, the heart rate can reflect the current physiological state of human body most directly. With the development of modern technology, heart rate detection methods gradually tend to be diversified. Compared with the traditional contact life detection system, the non-contact detection method does not need a user to connect any sensor, meets the requirements of some special scenes, and is extremely high in comfort. These methods employ Wi-Fi signal, RFID, FMCW radar, ultra wideband radar, doppler radar, and the like. The ultra-wideband radar has the advantages of low power consumption, high resolution, strong anti-interference capability and the like, and can effectively measure vital signs of human bodies. Therefore, the ultra-wideband radar technology has wide application prospect, and the related research results are applied to the fields of ruin rescue, patient medical treatment, safe driving and the like.
Various schemes exist in the prior art to accurately extract the heartbeat signal, for example, the periodicity of harmonic distribution is utilized, so that the accuracy of heart rate detection is improved; the extraction of the heartbeat frequency is realized by combining singular value decomposition with empirical mode decomposition (Empirical mode decomposition, EMD), but EMD has the problem of mode mixing; detecting heartbeat parameters by using clustering empirical mode decomposition improves the performance of EMD, but inevitably leaves residual white noise in the mode; separating the heartbeat signal using a variational modal decomposition (Variational Mode Decomposition, VMD) improves the decomposition efficiency but requires determining the decomposition level based on the target number.
Current vital sign detection algorithms can accurately extract heartbeat signals by spectral analysis of single frame time series, but rely on long-term radar data accumulation. When the sampling frequency is fixed, the longer the participation sequence, the better the spectrum. Therefore, long-term observation data is required for the experiment, and the efficiency of the radar is reduced. Meanwhile, the VMD can effectively overcome modal aliasing, and the frequency domain division capability is better, but the superiority of the VMD depends on the accurate setting of the decomposition layer number K and the penalty value alpha. The alpha value ensures the reconstruction accuracy of the signal, the K value determines the number of modes of decomposition, and the two parameters are often set empirically, thus reducing the adaptability of the VMD.

The invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific examples.
1. Ultra-wideband radar heartbeat detection model construction
As shown in fig. 1, the principle of ultra wideband radar vital sign detection is detection periodicityFigure 1 is an ultra wideband radar sign detection model. In a static environment, a person is spaced from an ultra wideband antenna by a distance d 0 X (t) is the chest wall displacement signal caused by respiration and heartbeat.
Chest motion caused by the respiration and heartbeat of a person is approximately simple harmonic motion, and can be expressed as:
x(t)=A r cos(2πf r t)+A h cos(2πf h t) (13)
wherein: a is that r For respiratory signal amplitude, f r For respiratory signal frequency, A h For the amplitude of the heartbeat signal, f h Is the heart beat signal frequency. The actual distance d (t) between the chest and the radar is:
d(t)=d 0 +x(t) (14)
propagation time of pulse τ v (t) is:
Figure BDA0004089141790000051
wherein: c is the propagation speed of electromagnetic wave, τ 0 =d 0 And/c is the fixed time delay between the antenna and human body, τ r =d r /c,τ h =d h And/c is the time delay caused by respiration and heartbeat, respectively. It can be seen that the respiration and heartbeat frequency can be obtained by sampling the pulse sequence received by the radar and utilizing a proper signal processing algorithm. Pulse echoes of periodic and stationary targets are shown in fig. 1. The slow time reflects the observation time information and the fast time reflects the radar detection distance information. The echo time delay of a stationary target is constant, and the time delay of a periodic target is periodically changed. It is assumed that in the detection scenario, there is only human respiratory motion and heartbeat motion, and that other objects are stationary. The channel impulse response h (t, τ) of the ultra-wideband radar is:
Figure BDA0004089141790000052
wherein: t and τ are respectivelySlow time and fast time of radar scanning signal, slow time represents observation time, fast time represents radar detection distance, a i δ(τ-τ i (t)) is the response of a stationary object, a v δ(τ-τ v (t)) is the response of the human respiratory heartbeat. Let s (τ) be the transmit signal of the ultra wideband radar, then the receive signal R (t, τ) is denoted as:
Figure BDA0004089141790000053
by T s 、δ T Discretizing the signal for slow and fast sampling intervals, respectively, to obtain:
Figure BDA0004089141790000054
wherein m=1, 2, …, M; n=1, 2, …, N, the radar return signal model is a discrete matrix R (m, N) with the sign information hidden in this two-dimensional matrix.
2. Echo selection to obtain multiple sequences of vital sign vectors
UWB vital detection can generally be divided into two ranges, a range with a human target and a range without a human target, so the main purpose of echo selection is to find the range containing the most obvious human vital sign signal. The human target position is determined by analyzing the data variance in the slow time direction. For the n-th column of the echo matrix, the variance σ 2 (n) is defined as:
Figure BDA0004089141790000055
the variance value in the human body target range is far larger than that in the non-human body target range, and a data basis is provided for human body target positioning. Determination of human target P by finding variance maximum point 0 Distance information is obtained. The vital sign signals are distributed in adjacent distance gates, and more than single frame signals can be obtained by selecting the signals on the adjacent distance gatesAnd vital sign information, and shortens the observation time. Let the distance D outside the chest of human body th The number P of points occupied by the chest distance of the human body th It can be calculated as:
Figure BDA0004089141790000061
the vital sign signal matrix ψ is expressed as:
Figure BDA0004089141790000062
will target position P of human body 0 And selecting and combining a plurality of sequence signals of adjacent distance gates according to rows to obtain a vital sign signal vector zeta. Fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of this part of the algorithm.
3. Heartbeat signal extraction to obtain accurate heart rate
In order to improve the performance of the VMD, the invention provides that a WOA-VMD algorithm optimizes two parameters, namely K and alpha. The specific flow is shown in fig. 3, where ρ is a random value and |a| is a coefficient vector. Firstly, a WOA algorithm is introduced, the whale group vector position [ K, alpha ] is initialized, an fitness function is constructed by utilizing an energy difference and a sample entropy, the fitness of each individual is calculated, the optimal whale position is stored, a corresponding iteration formula is selected according to the value of a convergence factor to update the position until the maximum iteration times are reached, and the optimal VMD parameter is output. The key to this algorithm is the choice of fitness function, which is described below.
The energy difference before and after signal decomposition should be 0 in terms of energy conservation. When the energy difference is small and there is no significant trend of change, the energy difference is considered to be approximately 0. Rate of energy loss F λ The definition is as follows:
Figure BDA0004089141790000063
wherein: e (E) k The energy of each modal component, E is the original signal energy. In addition, the sample entropy represents the complexity of the non-stationary signalThe smaller the sample entropy, the more periodic the signal. Entropy of sample F SE Expressed as:
Figure BDA0004089141790000064
wherein: r is a similarity tolerance threshold, m is the reconstructed phase space dimension, B m (r) is the probability that the two sequences m-point match at r. By F λ And F SE Constructing a fitness function of the WOA algorithm:
Figure BDA0004089141790000065
the number of decomposition layers and penalty factor corresponding to the minimum fitness value are the optimal parameters, at this time, the signal is thoroughly decomposed by the VMD, and no modal aliasing exists. For each modal component IMF of the frequency domain, calculating the heart rate energy ratio, selecting a proper IMF for heart rate signal reconstruction, and further obtaining an accurate heart rate estimated value.
4. Experimental results
The effectiveness of the method is verified through experiments, the experimental scene is shown in fig. 4, and heart rate detection is carried out on 6 volunteers through ultra-wideband radar. The heart beat signal and the frequency spectrum of the primary reconstruction are shown in fig. 5, the vital sign signal is thoroughly decomposed to obtain a purer heart beat signal, and the measured heart rate estimated value is 1.113Hz. Meanwhile, in order to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm of the present invention, the conventional FFT and EEMD algorithms are used to process the same heartbeat frequency band signal as a comparison, and the spectrum of the extracted heartbeat signal is shown in fig. 6. Wherein, the reference value is 1.119Hz, and the heart rate estimated values measured by FFT, EEMD and WOA-VMD algorithms are 1.167Hz, 1.163Hz and 1.113Hz respectively, and the heart rate estimation of the traditional FFT algorithm and EEMD algorithm has larger errors. In addition, the 1.172Hz signal in the figure is the 4 th harmonic of the respiratory signal. It can be seen that the accuracy of the first two algorithms is affected by respiratory harmonics. The WOA-VMD algorithm is spectrum-concentrated and can obtain accurate heart rate estimation value. The algorithm effectively suppresses the influence of respiratory harmonics and spurious frequency components on the heartbeat signal, and can effectively separate the life signal from the spurious. In addition, in order to compare the accuracy of the three algorithms, the average heart rate error ratio of the three algorithms is analyzed, and the average error ratio of the traditional FFT algorithm, EEMD algorithm and WOA-VMD algorithm is 9.36%, 3.70% and 1.58% respectively. Overall, the WOA-VMD algorithm is significantly better than the other two algorithms.
The foregoing is merely illustrative of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions easily contemplated by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the present invention.
