Abstract
Radar was associated with military industries in earlier centuries. This day’s several industries, like automobile, mining, medical, etc., are also using radars. It is becoming very popular for contact less bio-medical investigation on human body, because of its less microwave energy radiation over short distance. Continuous monitoring of cardio respiratory activity, breast tumor diagnostics, imaging of blood circulation are few immerging areas of research in bio-medical applications. Continuous wave, frequency modulated, ultra-wideband, these are few popular radars which researcher start implementing in bio-medical application. Now recent radar topologies, mainly advance antenna technologies, like MIMO, array and Phased MIMO radar are also becoming very popular in medical applications because of effective performance ability in low signal-to-noise ratio environment. On the other hand, advance computational techniques like soft computing is also becoming part of the modern radar which can improve noise performance Doppler tolerance in bio-medical application.
