Omnidirectional multiperson localization and simultaneous vital signs detection are challenges for the single radar system. A novel rotary radar based on frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) modulation is proposed to achieve omnidirectional exploration. The model of this radar is brought out t...
