This paper proposes a real-time heart rate detection method based on 77 GHz FMCW radar. Firstly, the method establishes a new motion model according to respiratory and heartbeat rules, and extracts the motion signals of the chest and the abdomen; then, the random body motion (RBM) signal is eliminated by a combination of polynomial fitting and recursive least squares (RLS) adaptive filtering; lastly, multi-detection-point adaptive harmonics cancellation (AHC) is used to eliminate respiratory harmonics. In addition, the method introduces a spectrum analysis algorithm based on linear predictive coding (LPC). The experimental results show that the method can effectively eliminate the RBM signal and respiratory harmonics, and that the average real-time heart rate detection error rate is 2.925%.
