Life Detection Systems

The document describes a microwave life detection system that can identify humans trapped within rubble after an earthquake. It operates by transmitting a microwave beam at a portion of rubble. Any heartbeat signals between 0.2-3 Hz reflected back are detected. The system contains major components including a microwave circuit, dual antenna system, clutter cancellation system and display. It can identify humans within a few seconds, helping improve rescue rates for those trapped in earthquake rubble.

Introduction
Death from earth quake. Earth quake Rubble. Rescue % is less.

Prediction?
Microwave life detection system. Process is of few seconds.

Principle of operation
Microwave beam of certain frequency [L (or) S

band(1150Mhz (or) UHF band(450MHz] is aimed at a portion of rubble. Microwave beam detects the person. Heartbeat (0.2 to 3Hz). Reflected wave. Iteration process. Process is of few seconds.

Major componets
Four major componets

Phase locked oscillator


The PLO generates stable electromagnetic wave 0f

1150 MHz with power 400mW Antenna system: The dual antenna system has two antennas,
Clutter cancellation system

Conclusion
New life detection system using microwave

radiation for identifying human beings within the short time.
