Human motion analysis is a task of increasing importance in several modern application fields, such as in medicine, avionics, security, and disaster recovery. It requires the application of sophisticated measurement techniques based on micro-Doppler effect, human walking modeling, cinematic simulation, image processing and measurements. In this paper, a novel and comprehensive measurement approach is proposed for the detection and analysis of human motion. The approach combines theoretical concepts and tools of micro-Doppler theory, image processing, and human modeling, in a original way. The attention is primarily focused on some measurement issues and implications that, if taken into account, can give an important enhancement to micro-Doppler-based future applications. Some simulation results concerning one specific issue of the measurement approach are finally provided and discussed.

Abstract
Human motion analysis is a task of increasing importance in several modern application fields, such as in medicine, avionics, security, and disaster recovery. It requires the application of sophisticated measurement techniques based on micro-Doppler effect, human walking modeling, cinematic simulation, image processing and measurements. In this paper, a novel and comprehensive measurement approach is proposed for the detection and analysis of human motion. The approach combines theoretical concepts and tools of micro-Doppler theory, image processing, and human modeling, in a original way. The attention is primarily focused on some measurement issues and implications that, if taken into account, can give an important enhancement to micro-Doppler-based future applications. Some simulation results concerning one specific issue of the measurement approach are finally provided and discussed.Pubblicazioni consigliate
