However, current solutions suffer from critical limitations. In this paper, a complete system for contactless health-monitoring in home environment is presented. For the first time, radar, wireless communications, and data processing techniques are combined, enabling contactless fall detection and tagless localization. Practical limitations are considered and properly dealt with. Experimental tests, conducted with human volunteers in a realistic room setting, demonstrate an adequate detection of the target's absolute distance and a success rate of 94.3% in distinguishing fall events from normal movements. The volunteers were free to move about the whole room with no constraints in their movements. 2014-05-18T01:25:33Z 2014-05-18T01:25:33Z 2013 Article IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, vol. 61(5), 2013, pages 2061-2068 0018-9480 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6473854 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34491 en Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
