However, most current research on biometric radar can only achieve heart rate or respiration rate monitoring in static environments, which have strict monitoring requirements and single monitoring parameters. Moreover, most studies have not applied the collected data despite their significant potential for applications. In this paper, we introduce a non-touch motion-robust vital sign monitoring system via ultra-wideband (UWB) radar based on deep learning. Nmr-VSM not only enables multi-dimensional vital sign monitoring under human motion environments but also implements cardiac anomaly detection. The design of Nmr-VSM includes three key components. Firstly, we design a UWB radar that can perform multi-dimensional vital sign monitoring, including heart rate, respiratory rate, distance, and motion status. Secondly, we collect real experimental data and analyze the impact of eight factors, such as motion status and distance, on heart rate monitoring. We then propose a deep neural network (DNN)-based heart rate data correction model that achieves high robustness in motion environments. Finally, we model the heart rate variability (HRV) of the human body and propose a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based anomaly detection model that achieves low-latency detection of heart diseases, such as ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. Experimental results in a real environment demonstrate that Nmr-VSM can not only accurately monitor heart rate but also achieve anomaly detection with low latency.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/mi14071479","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,24]],"date-time":"2023-07-24T03:03:25Z","timestamp":1690167805000},"page":"1479","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Nmr-VSM: Non-Touch Motion-Robust Vital Sign Monitoring via UWB Radar Based on Deep Learning"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Zhonghang","family":"Yuan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9850-2196","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shuaibing","family":"Lu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-5363-1102","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yi","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Software Engineering, Beijing Jiaotong University, Beijing 100091, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xuetao","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4542-8727","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan","family":"Fang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"97","DOI":"10.1109\/MMM.2015.2394020","article-title":"Millimeter-wave tissue diagnosis: The most promising fields for medical applications","volume":"16","author":"Topfer","year":"2015","journal-title":"IEEE Microw.
