where is the unit vector of the radar LOS. In (3), the first
part is the Doppler frequency component; the second part
is the m-D frequency component. The periodic property is
easily seen in (3). The description above is only an ideal
situation. In the practical application, the bulk motion of the
human is not always even. In each moving cycle, acceleration
and deceleration are coupled.
B. Time-Frequency Analysis for Human Echo
According to the forenamed analysis, the non-stationary
properties for human echo are noticeable. While the Fourier
transform (FT) is a very useful concept for stationary signals,
many signals encouraged in real-world situations have
frequency contents that change over time. Joint TF transforms
were developed for the purpose of characterizing the timevarying frequency contents of a signal. The best-known TF
representation of a time signal dates back to Gabor and
is known as the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) [31].
It is basically a moving window FT. By examining the
frequency content of the signal as the time window moves,
a 2-dimensional (2-D) TF distribution called the spectrogram
is generated. The discretized STFT is defined as,
S (m, n) =

B. Theory of PCA
PCA is a classical analytical method of statistics. It is
a de-correlation technique which has been widely used for
dimensionality reduction in the applications of pattern recognition, data compression and noise rejection [36]. Besides
de-correlation, the PCA is a tool in statistical data analysis
and uses eigenvectors corresponding to the largest eigenvalues
to obtain a set of function bases so that the original signal can
be represented by a linear combination of these bases. Under
the condition of Gauss distribution, PCA can maximize the
information of output signals. Therefore, PCA, as a simple and
convenient method, help us solve problems and save the most
information: i) simplify the data by dimensionality reduction;
ii) save the original signal information as much as possible.
A moving window is applied for a single pulse echo, then
an input signal of N components is obtained, as expressed
in (5). First, estimate the mean value of xi , denoted as i ,
and thus, the mean value vector of X can be written as
= E [X] = [1 , 2 , , n ]T

the singular value decomposition (SVD) for the co-variance
matrix S. It can be expressed as
S = U V

where the superscript H denotes the conjugate transpose operator, Yi is a N K matrix. At last, take the inverse operation
of the first step for Yi to reconstruct the 1-D signal zi with
the same size of the original signal. The de-correlation matrix
can be obtained.

the class that each PC belongs to is determined by looking
up the maximal terms of each row.
