Learning to Assess Heartbeat Observability for mmWave Heart-Rate Sensing

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.03570v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contactless heart-rate sensing with millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar requires assessing whether individual measurements support reliable estimation. We study learning to assess heartbeat observability, defined as the readability of the heartbeat component in an acquired phase spectrum, for selective heart-rate estimation. Coherent superposition of scatterer returns can suppress this component even under similar macroscopic observation geometry, motivating assessment directly from acquired measurements. To obtain training supervision across different observability conditions, we develop a controllable multi-scatterer frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) simulator. Agreement between the dominant heartbeat-band peak and the known heart rate
