This thesis presents a radar sensor with the self-oscillating active integrated antenna based on the self-injection-locked principle for vital-sign monitoring. The two-port circular patch antenna is designed to be treated as a frequency-selective resonator, and then used to implement a self-oscillating active antenna, which is employed to simultaneously transmit radio-frequency signal and receive back-scattered injection wave from the human chest. In this study, the developed sensors use the amplitude and frequency demodulation techniques to acquire the vital sign signals. The measured vital sign is then sent into the analog-to-digital conversion module to obtain digital signals for further digital signal processing. By applying the fast Fourier transformation, the spectra of the wrist pulse, heartbeat, and respiration can be achieved, and the frequency peaks of the vital signs can be easily identified. The amplitude demodulation technique, namely the envelope detector with a microwave differentiator, is used to demodulate the vital signs of the wrist pulse, heartbeat, and respiration. As compared with the results measured by the finger pulse oximeter, the heartbeat error is less than 1.2 %. The frequency demodulation technique, namely the phase-locked loop, is also used to demodulate vital signs of the remote noncontact measurement. As compared with the results measured by the finger pulse oximeter, the heartbeat error is less than 2.4 %. The results presented in this thesis demonstrate that the vital sign can be accurately measured using the developed radar sensor with the self-oscillating active integrated antenna.
